I find it curious during the last few weeks that so many spoof articles from various sources seem to be sprouting up about Ron Paul.

Maybe it's not that hard to understand, but often the one line headlines visible to a news searcher aren't very favorable of Ron Paul or simply poke fun at him or his supporters expense. Anyone else suspect that these satire spoofs may not be so friendly to Ron Paul?

Examples:

I dont like them. I think google news needs filter satire news unless you specifically request it. With such wacky ideas out there people will probably believe its true.

Think of the Al gore's son story.

Al Gore's Son caught going over 100mph in a hybrid. Sounds like a joke, but its true.
Ron Paul Comes forward with National Health Care Plan- not true, but sounds like it could be if you didn't know him.
