Would you like to ride in our beautiful balloon
Twoofers all get high in our beautiful balloon
We could make some people think he’s a real candidate
For we can fly, for our guy!
Up, up and away
Our beautiful, our beautiful balloon
I know that it’s a blimp, but I’m still using balloon
This parody works better if I use balloon
We can raise a pile and sail along the silver sky
For we can fly, Ron’s our guy!
Up, up and away
Our beautiful, our beautiful balloon
Suspended under a goldbug canopy
We’ll troll the net for a poll and spam it
If by some chance you’re going to vote for him
“Cut and Run” defines us
We’ll keep moonbats beside us
Ron is waiting there for our beautiful balloon
We don’t have Romney’s hair in my beautiful balloon
If you’ll vote for Paul we’ll chase our dream across the sky
For we can fly, Ron’s our guy!
Up, up and away
Six million and a beautiful balloon
OK, Blimp…
Up, up, and away…..

Mona Charen’s Ronulan Review

Former speech writer for Nancy Reagan and nationally syndicated columnist Mona Charen offers a review of the Ronulans — Too Close to Kooky

Memo to: Ron Paul supporters

Subject: Your e-mails

Okay, enough is enough. Like every other journalist in America, and who knows, maybe the world or even the universe, I’ve been deluged with your letters and e-mails. So I’ve done as you asked and taken a closer look at your candidate. Here is what I’ve found:

1. Ron Paul is inconsistent. Though he calls himself a man of principle and is apparently admired as such by his ardent fans, his principles seem somewhat elastic.

She also notes that Paul is “historically challenged” and (my favorite) “too cozy with kooks and conspiracy theorists.”

Go read the whole thing. If you don’t the black helicopters will start hovering over your house and beam it in to your brain.

You’ve been warned.

Iowa Debate Without Paul, Tancredo, Hunter

The Republican debate in Iowa on December 4th will not (as of now) include candidates Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, or Ron Paul. The Iowa Republican Party, who is sponsoring the debate along with Fox News, issued standards for participation on Tuesday.

The Ronulans are not amused.

That’s because the sponsors said participants need to average 5% support among Republicans in recent national or Iowa polls — and so far, Texas Rep. Ron Paul is one of the candidates not making the cut.

News of the party’s decision and how to protest it was spread quickly over the Internet by supporters of the anti-war, anti-tax, anti-abortion libertarian. “We are getting bombarded” with calls and e-mails from Paul’s supporters, said GOP spokeswoman Mary Tiffany. She said there were 25 voice mails from angry Paul supporters before the start of business Thursday.

The answer Tiffany gives is exactly right:

“I’m all about the First Amendment, but at the same time, how is this productive?” she asked. “They need to start calling voters and start door-knocking instead of calling the Republican Party of Iowa.”

The deluded supports really think that they are doing much, much, much better than they are. Any suggestion to the contrary is treated as a) delusion, or b) a conspiracy.

Expect them to be in a foul mood for the next four weeks.
