Sorry for all the Woods vs. Levin posts, but this one deserves its own post. The Daily Caller has a story about poor Mark Levin getting picked on by Ron Paul supporters. Curiously, nowhere does the story mention the brutal intellectual beatdown Woods administered to Levin that prompted the Ron Paul supporters to comment on Levin’s posts to begin with. Levin admits to sanctioning the censoring of opposing viewpoints.
Truth be told, I’m not the administrator of my social sites, but I back the administrator,” Levin said. “See, what happens folks is sometimes we get into these little discussions and the word goes out – flood the Facebooksite or whatever – through bloggers, through people who think by this kind of mob mentality, they’re going to persuade people. They don’t persuade anybody of anything. They annoy people and so the administrator has to clean out a bunch of them, particularly when they get into their hate modes. They keep linking back to other sites, which are intending to increase the hits on those other sites.”

Looking for just one quote from a Founder.

Hey, look for a quote all you want, Red. That debate’s with Levin, not me. I don’t make constitutionalist arguments for or against intervention, so you’re barking up the wrong tree. I support liberty around the world, and the use of American power where appropriate. Most of all, I support Israel. Besides, Levin cracks me up in hammering the Paulbots as assholes!

I know my issue is with Levin, I just thought you might want to help a fellow interventionist out in his time of need.

No, Red, you’re launching a idiotic attack by association. I don’t even listen to Levin. The video is hilarious, though. Ron Paul supporters as a-holes? Who’d have known????

Relax Dr. D. I wasn’t really being serious. It was just an excuse to needle you and broadcast Levin’s humiliation to a wider audience.
Just like you search for opportunities to needle us.

“Most of all, I support Israel”?
Ever thought about “Most of all, I support the USA”?

More On The Tom Woods / Mark Levin Feud…
Sorry if this is overkill, but my inbox has more mail on this than any topic I’ve seen for a while, so I’m totally milking it. I don’t have any new info, but I do want to quash a rumor. (Yeah, like that’s gonna work.) Jeff Poor at The Daily Caller …

I’m just glad that Levin is exposing the insidious tactics of these Paul supporters.
To think that they’d leave links to THEIR sites in HIS comment threads! And they do it with the intent to drive traffic to their own sites? They’re that BLATANT?
Isn’t there a law against this? There should be…

How did support for Israel (whatever that means) become a litmus test for … anything? I don’t unconditionally support the actions of any government … not even the USA. Are we referring to financial support? … because American taxpayers all support Israel, to the tune of many billions of dollars each year. Are we talking about military support? … because, it could be argued that every member of the military supports Israel through US wars on her neighbors. Is it moral support you want? What about us Jews who are constantly embarrassed by the actions of the state of Israel? Are we anti-semites? Let’s be honest: jews and arabs are both semites; in fact, since most of us jews are mostly european (racially), is it really reasonable to call arab hostilities against jews “anti-semitic”? Wouldn’t it be more reasonable to identify Israeli treatment of Palestinians as “anti-semitic”? If anyone wonders where the neocon doctrine of “American exceptionalism” comes from, one doesn’t need to dig very deep, it seems.
