So i did not know what Dr. Paul meant when he referred to "orcs"

"But now is the time to stick together like the brothers and sisters we are, to stand side by side in this fight against the media toadies, warmongers, and Wall Street rip-off artists who stand against us, and who always remind me of Tolkein's Orcs"

So I wiki and this came up and I had a smile :D

"Orkish" redirects here. For other uses, see Urkish.

Orc (OR'k) is a word used to refer to various tough and warlike humanoid creatures in various fantasy settings, particularly in the stories of Middle-earth written by J. R. R. Tolkien and derivative fictions. Orcs are often portrayed as misshapen humanoids with brutal, warmongering, sadistic, yet cowardly tendencies, although some settings and writers describe them as a proud warrior race with a strong sense of honour. They are variously portrayed as physically stronger or weaker than humans, but always high in numbers. They often ride wolves or wargs. In many role-playing and computer games, though not in Tolkien's works, Orcs have green skin (earning the name "Greenskins" in such games) and have faces that resemble a cross between a pig and a primate.
 
Since I read the Lord of the Rings books and saw the movies, I instantly had to chuckle at Ron's comment....I thought "whoah! This is the 1988 Ron Paul coming out! YES!"
 
"foul broodlings of Melko [sic] who fared abroad doing his evil work".

"all that race were bred by Melko of the subterranean heats and slime. Their hearts were of granite and their bodies deformed; foul their faces which smiled not, but their laugh that of the clash of metal, and to nothing were they more fain than to aid in the basest of the purposes of Melko."

Melko being an evil overlord in early Tolkein writings that I have't read.

Latin Orcus, the name of the Roman god of Death

So as warmongering people that cannot comprehend peace since they are influenced and ruled by fear, I say it was a very accurately chosen word.

Neo-con = ORCS

Perfect.

Great Job Doc, every time I think I can't, I love you even more.
 
So true! My wife and I re-watched the LOTR trilogy over the holidays and I couldn't shake the comparison of the orc army to the MSM/Neocons (for example, how other MSM outlets couldn't resist the Fox-censorship story). I wanted to use the 'orc' reference in a comment, but she thought it was too vague, can't wait to show her this. :)

Dr. Paul is smart, patient and highly tactical; I increasingly respect his intellect.
 
Where did he say that? lol the media is a mindless band of orcs. The politicians are nothing but imps as well.
