Fukk your corny debates
Former Republican Congressman Ron Paul is auctioning off a piece of “little-known Congressional history”: his 1979 Chevrolet Chevette, the proceeds of which will benefit the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity.
The former presidential candidate framed the auction in a post to his institute’s website Monday, saying his classic car was a key part of a personal story between Paul and former House Speaker Tip O’Neil. During the height of the 1979 gas shortage, O’Neil’s “behemoth” vehicle towered over Paul’s much smaller Chevette — a comparison immortalized in “cheeky” photo, which upset O’Neil, Paul wrote in his post.
Well, you would have thought I was Ed Snowden,” Paul wrote. “There was a huge blow-up.”Paul said despite having it for so long — and repainting it after his youngest daughter took it to college — the vehicle only has 69,000 miles on it.(PHOTOS: Ron Paul’s career)
"But it starts and runs, and is as cute as when Tip wanted to bomb it,” Paul wrote.The car will go to whomever makes the largest donation to the Institute for Peace and Prosperity, and will come with Congressional license plate. Donations must be submitted by Oct. 15.“So drive history forward, and make your pledge,” Paul wrote.
