From TomWoods.com (http://www.tomwoods.com/blog/american-spectator-dead-wrong-about-ron-paul/):

You know that article (http://spectator.org/archives/2011/08/23/ron-paul-and-the-neoliberal-re/) by Jeffrey Lord that’s been touted on the radio shows of Mark Levin, Michael Medved, and Rush Limbaugh? It’s toast.

This book (http://www.scribd.com/doc/4219811/Americas-Secret-Establishment-An-Introduction-to-Skull-and-Bones) will blow your mind.

Would this book be strongly considered in the Alex Jones camp? :D

It was first recommended to me by a Lew Rockwell blogger. I have since seen associated LRC articles where the book is promoted. It was written by a Stanford professor. Give it a try. It's chilling.

Yeah. That would be a lot better than just preaching to the choir.

His videos reach new people on the social networks. But what's really great about him is he helps us formulate our responses to commonly expressed views.

Lew Rockwell doesn't exactly set a high bar for his bloggers.

Not sure what you mean by that. Read the book and decide for yourself. It was written by a respected scholar.

You can hear Gutzman/Woods clearing up Jeffery Lords misinformation on the Mike church show at this (http://mikechurch.com/mikes_audio/On-Air%20Interview/august_2011/pss20110824.mp3) link via Tom Woods (MP3). Its a great after show show.

Medved had a whole hour dedicated to this article yesterday... So frustrating to listen to.

Hopefully this video can get around to the people less likely to go looking for it. The antisemitism claims are ones that I have heard for awhile, and claims that I believe will hurt him if sources like this video aren't used effectively.

They have only outlandish claims to drum up against RP.

Nice find.

Never heard of Eric Gordan. I don't know much about Walter Block either.

Definitely get to know him. He's a Murray Rothbard protégé, one of the top libertarians alive today.

Here's his seminal work.

I've listened to (and enjoyed) Mark Levin's show off and on for years on the way home.. I just read all the interactions between Levin, Woods, Hunter, and the Lord article... all I can say is... Wow...

They want to somehow, in some super obscure way, tie non-interventionist foreign policy to anti-semitism? It's cool with me if they want to disagree on policy, but this is just as bad as when the Dems claim racism when people disagree with them on policy (which all of these radio guys call them on).

This may be the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

I'm glad Woods went up to bat.

I posted the video on Levin's FB wall - it pained me to actually click "like" but I did, quickly posted, and clicked "unlike".

Still there after 18 minutes. :)

Woods is a powerful ally. The campaign should make use of his talents on TV wherever they can.

What a slaughter! He tore it limb-from-limb in its entirety. Definitely get this guy on a press secretary.
