Run, Sean, Run: Angry Ron Paul Mob Chases Sean Hannity

The Powers That Be
January 7, 2008

Watching Ron Paul’s fans angry protest of the exclusion of their candidate from the Fox News forum, chasing and eventually catching up with Sean Hannity as he enters a hotel, you can’t help but be reminded of the beginning of the scene in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" in which the mob tries to figure out how to determine if a woman is a witch.

Frankly, Paul should have been included in the forum, but stuff like this doesn’t boost the reputation of the campaign.

The end of the clip answers the age-old question of "what does the dog do once it catches the car?" It gives itself a big cheer.

    On the one hand it is important to let guys like Hannity know that they cannot hide behind their studio cameras and pretend that there is not another audience out there that doesn;twant to buy his latest book. And as a spokesperson for FoxNews he rightly deserves to be a lightning rod for the anger and frustration of Paul supporters.

    On the other hand, this scene exemplifies the reason why we want to avoid “democracy” at all cost - for it creates the lynch mob. Even the best of us can succomb to the temptation of acting base and vile when in a large group of like-minded, often like- dressed individuals if the cause seems “right” and passionate enough. That’s how governments raise and train armies to do what they do.

    On the other other hand, every action inspires an equal and opposite reaction.
    How does one react to voter intimidation and vote fraud when the system is corrupt and offers no redress ?
    By becoming bigger and meaner than one’s opponent, if possible.
    Not forgetting as well that the younger one is, the more recent a world one has grown up in;
    “Acting base and vile when in a large group of like-minded, often like- dressed individuals if the cause seems “right” and passionate enough” seems to be the order of the decade so far.

    Well I am a ole radical and I will always be one, but there is a time for everything under the sun.We hope Ron Paul gets elected. This type of thing before the TUE primary will only give a reason for the media to say, we knew it, see Ron Paul is bad news, I could only hope people use their minds and not just their mouths also if Ron Paul gave a speech and said Bush you suck or America now sucks ect He would be finished I hope his people realize bad words make one look like a fool and not a very Presidential spirit at all.
    I wonder, like in Canada when they protested the NAU and the police were caught on tape trying to provoke a riot.I question if all of these were true Ron Paul supporters, something to think about. Man the media will have a field day with this, Paul supporters are home grown radicals and terrorist I can hear freedom of speech laws tossed out the door ect.

    There is a time to take up our cross and bull-horn, but not now, the worlds eyes are on Ron Paul and his followers we should be on our best behavior for now, there will soon be a time, but this can not help DR.Paul.

    Anyone with anything negative about that clip can crawl back into their shill cubby hole. What you saw there were GENUINE Americans, peacefully making their point. The people return fire likewise, and the establishment needs to know this. So John Mascaro, an other above comments need to keep their mouths shut, lest the people fail to uphold their freedoms. The establishment uses dirty tricks, we merely show them we have the numbers.

    I’ve never been prouder of Americans than I was watching this clip. YOUR COUNTRY BELONGS TO YOU!!!!

    Protests, protests, protests. These goons hide behind their studio desks and are terrified of confrontation. I was slapped with eight (8) restraining orders for testifying about deplorable workers compensation corruption in California. These people are easily terrified. Stay with it. Don’t give up.

    Tell your friends to research the National Health Information Network

    It is the federal wiretap of your medical reocrds.

    that’s pure quality

    Oh man I can’t say how proud this makes me. I was kind enough to place a sign at our local affiliate for the sign bomb…few others sign bombs had been “planted” whenn I arrived, so I added mine and drove away. Wish I had a mob. :)

    John Mascaro,

    Hannity and his ilk need no defending. If Hannity hadn’t sold his soul to the devil, he wouldn’t have to be hunted down in the night like a scurrilous dog.

    Hannity is no man. He can’t face the light. He is a vampire, best served with cold stake and fresh garlic by pesky peasants.

    This is absolutely necessary. I think the people who participated in this are great and have done a great thing !

    People like Hannity will continue to do what they want unless they are challenged. Fuck being PC anymore, give it to him good, make his life hell as often as possible.

    Angry mob? I thought they were actually quite restrained. I laughed my ass off watching this clip. I’ve always wondered, if I were to see one of these neocons and/or enablers in person, if I would be overcome with the urge to yell “traitor, criminal, asshole”.

    “We’re great Americans…. And you’re not Sean…”

    Best line ever.

    I agree with Reverend Dan. Ron Paul in 2008 ronpaul2008.com (for the web crawlers) also now is not the time to protest but to put your energy in other states and the net for RON. Keep voting in the polls! http://wiki.ronpaulpresshub.co.....itle=Polls

    AS I CAN NOT WATCH THE VIDIO BECAUSE SOMEBODY BUCKLED UNDER AND TOOK IT OFF THE AIR I WILL HAVE TO TAKE YOUR WORD FOR THE CONTENT OF SAID VIDIO. THE ONLY ONE WHO SHOULD HAVE HAD THE RIGHT TO ASK FOR ITS REMOVAL WOULD HAVE BEEN RON PAUL HIMSELF,SINCE IT WOULD BE A REFFERANCE TO THE FOLLOWERS OF DR.RON. I BELIEVE THAT THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE COVERING UP THE LIE NEED TO BE CONFRONTED, BUT PEACEFULLY MIND YOU..A LITTLE RUN NEVER HURT ANYONE..BUT IT SURE COULD MAKE THEM THINK BEFORE THEY OPEN THEIR BIG MOUTH THE NEXT TIME, OR MAYBE THE NEXT. SOONER OR LATER THEY WILL GET THE MESSAGE, STOP LIEING, STOP CHEATING, STOP STOMPING ON THE CONSTITUTION OF THIS GREAT LAND AND ITS PEOPLE..JOHNNY AMERICAN..LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC
