I wasn't sure where to put this... it should be at home here though.

How long did they have to dig to get such a poor photo of Dr. Paul ??

..sheesh...

[Thanehand]

Thank you! Good to see that they called it "the greatest fund-raising coup in presidential history." At least someone is seeing this for this history that it is.

Well, they had to make him look "schlumpy" somehow! :rolleyes:

[AlabamaWildMan]

'Twas my point !!

...I mean...finding a poor shot of Johnny Mac is like dropping a rock in a well...

..and Huck's BEST photo is on his Driving Certificate:

But Dr. Paul is fairly photogenic....ain't he ??

Not too bad an article, but darned sure would have been better if he had gotten to ride with them, and some understanding talk of the issues. That article could have rocked. They sure dropped the ball on that one..

My sentiments exactly.

Had the blimpco been managed more professionally, and as a true grassroots project, that article likely would have been much more positive and timely. Instead, we get a humor laden hit piece that lands on shelves after Super Tuesday, and uses the failed blimpco to paint the entire campaign as a joke. Disappointing, to say the least.

But the article was well written, and being familiar with the whole blimp fiasco, some parts were actually kind of funny.

Thanks for sharing this with us!
And the quality is pretty good.
Sad it is bad media.

Who the hell is RADAR? LOL. CNN and MSNBC applauded the effort, but I guess they aren't "RADAR".

PS, after a quit check...RADAR magazine just folded and went out of business...:D check for yourself. December was their last issue.

Nice article. :rolleyes: I only learned that he had been promised a seat once I took over email for the blimp and spoke to him at some length and tried to coordinate another flight for him. That was a monster sized project and it needed someone who was particularly responsible for coordinating rides...and at the time he was scheduled it had no one in that capacity. In fact, the blimp company had never used the blimp in a capacity similar to what we used it for so there was a learning curve for everyone involved.

I was never a fan of the blimp.. but don't sit here and bad mouth the efforts of the people behind it.... by citing an article in a worthless "magazine" published by despicable people... who are hell bent on stopping Ron Paul every chance they get.

For your information:

RADAR magazine was backed and published by:

Jeffrey Epstein (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/0726062epstein1.html)

and

Mort Zuckerman (http://www.fair.org/extra/9301/zuckerman.html) basically.. the next Rupert Murdoch...

Also both CFR members, and involved with the Rockefellers.

These people... and that magazine are against everything Ron Paul stands for. Of course they're trying to make our every effort look like a joke.
