Paulnuts printing illegal money

The Bircheresque crank’s minions got a little visit from the feds in Indiana.  From CNN:

Federal agents raided the headquarters of a group that produces illegal currency and puts it in circulation, seizing gold, silver and two tons of copper coins featuring Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul.

Agents also took records, computers and froze the bank accounts at the “Liberty Dollar” headquarters during the Thursday raid, Bernard von NotHaus, founder of the National Organization for the Repeal of the Federal Reserve Act & Internal Revenue Code, said in a posting on the group’s Web site.
…
The raid comes eight months after von NotHaus filed a lawsuit in federal court in Evansville seeking a permanent injunction to stop the federal government from labeling the Liberty Dollar an illegal currency.

The U.S. Mint issued a warning this year that the Liberty Dollar violated the Constitution and warned consumers against using them unsuspectingly.

Paul’s campaign said it had not authorized production of the Ron Paul dollars.

I know, I know: just because this von Nuthouse guy is yet another example in a whole slew of examples of kooks, krazies, and miscreants attracted to RuPaul‘s campaign doesn’t mean that it’s a reflection on Paul in the slightest…right?
