Ron Paul Clone To Run For N.J. Senate

Oh no. Some dude is running for Senate in New Jersey and... oh no, he's a maverick! But, uh, not one like Walnuts McCain -- who, uh, isn't a maverick -- one like... you know who.

Contending that Washington is "bankrupt" of both money and ideas, Dr. Murray Sabrin said the country is in a "perfect economic storm" that demands a return to free enterprise and confines the federal government to the role outlined in the U.S. Constitution.

"There's nothing (in the Constitution) about agriculture, housing, education, or energy," Sabrin, an economics professor at Ramapo College, said. He proposes that the federal departments bearing those names and functions be eliminated. Social Security would also be phased out under Sabrin's plan, with new workers shifting their contributions to 401(k) plans.

Yes, that's right, a libertarian doctor is running for Senate in New Jersey. We can shortly expect Dr. Sabrin to have a blimp, his own coinage and an army of angry online followers. And, look, thinks are going well for Maverick Murray so far!

Sabrin calls himself "Maverick Murray" and, lacking support from the party establishment, has striven for media attention in the primary in novel ways, such as inviting people to bet on his pick in the Kentucky Derby (Cowboy Cal) and contribute the winnings to his campaign.

Cowboy Cal finished sixth, out of the money.

Well, at least Cowboy Cal didn't die, like Hillary Clinton's horse.

Star Jones Out With Metro Columnist

Noted Metro columnist Marc Lamont Hill had dinner with ex-View host Star Jones; I can only assume they discussed the political fracturing of the United States, or maybe that column Hill wrote about how if you take a pole dancing class, you're not a good person and Chris Rock agrees. (That old post appears to have disappeared.)

The photos are from some site called Bossip, "the leading celebrity online property which has an urban sensibility." Oh, I see.

Meanwhile, his latest column on Pop Matters contains this aside: "[T]he suburban bred Kobe will never reach the ghetto superstar status of his generational peer, Allen Iverson, despite his extravagantly calculated gestures."

Nobody Puts Baby In A Hospital

6 ABC did its very own report about the National Enquirer's report that Patrick Swayze has terminal cancer and weeks to live. You'll be happy to know the respected Dr. Perez Hilton thinks Swayze is doing just fine.

• "Blame Norcross & the Camden County Freeholders for this one."
• "It's time the church got it's act together and do what it's MAIN purpose is. TEACH ABOUT JESUS!!! not be in the $$ business. How much $$ does the Camden Doc. bring in a year total. More than enough to spread the word of god. BEWARE the Muslims schools are free!!!"
• "Without the blood of the minority the pale man existence will be futile. Just like the Greeks needed Egypt, the roman needed Israel, and America needed Africa. Without the needs of the African race the pale man will cease to exist. Kuy yul hal kairuun"
• "I know more Dr.'s and Lawyers who came from Catholic education, more than Public school.... Stop picking on the Catholics, I don't hear people bashing the Hebrew school down near AC. The Jewish community down there do not want there kids going to AC High, I don't blame them. DIVERSE means crap if the parents don't teach them it at home. What is the term diverse mean that my kid gets to put a condom on a banana or they learn about every other HOLIDAY except Christmas."
• "that is pure b.s. about the catholics being mor dr's and lawyers. most of the doctors are jewish or indians. none of which got a catholic education."

Okay, to be honest, I just wanted to post those last two.

Del. Man Sues Doctors For Doing Shitty Job

A Delaware man has filed a lawsuit against several doctors for allegedly screwing up a reversal of his colostomy in 2005 that made him piss out his ass and shit out his penis.

Doctors originally allegedly messed up his colostomy by accidentally stapling his colon to the bladder instead of the rectal stump, The News-Journal reports. This accidentally made him pass stool and gas through his penis.

Go ahead, go clean up your vomit, I'll be here to finish the story after you're finished.
