Fox News Dirty tricks on Ron Paul
- Thread starter redytrk
- Start date
Yeah, so what? Makes no difference in MY life. Don't watch FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS. Unless I am in the mood for silly comedy!
There is NO difference between "Foolish Fox, the "Awful Broadcasting Company" the "Crummy Broadcasting System" and the "Nutty Broadcasting Company". All just very bad entertainment.

redytrk,
Good catch
..... this should leave no doubt as to the lengths that the fringe, right-wing neocon establishment will go to politically assassinate Dr. Paul.And there can be little doubt as to the reason they are willing to stoop this low, and go to such lengths of perfidy:
They indeed view Dr. Paul as a very real threat ....
If, after watching the above, anyone could make the claim that Fox News is "Fair and Balanced", they are, themselves, necessarily, complete and abject liars.
BTW, the creative editing of Bill Hemmer at the very end is a small measure of justice rendered for his complicity in the matter, and is perhaps an accurate portrayal of him as the maroon that he actually is ......
"They indeed view Dr. Paul as a very real threat"
Much like that LEFT wing radical news views Sarah Palin? They must REALLY FEAR her for all the "press" she receives.
There is NOT one bit of difference between the left and the right. The MAINSTREAM media and FOX. Between Randy Rhodes or Rush Limbaugh.
They are ALL just either slimy politicians OR BAD entertainment. Or in Obama's case, both at the same time.
As it says in the song: "And I don't like anybody very much" That is how I feel about ALL of our so called news outlets, politicians and their lackeys.

You really should try and come up with something new ... you know: push the envelope ...... expand the LOS standard response list to 5 or 10 or something ...
That is a rather simplistic view dontcha think ?
I mean, afterall ..... other people do watch the above organizations - even if you don't - and what they see and hear may influence them.
Unless you under the delusion that the decisions other people make has absolutely no effect on the world in which you live, I'd suggest that your position is not very a practical one (to say nothing of any ethical or moral aspects)

Yeah know RLENT, I REALLY DON'T care any longer. I have NO control over anything. The candidates are all jokes and MOST of the voting public could give a rat's patute about their freedoms or the Constitution as long as they have their freebies, TV, football (insert your favorite brand of whatever here) and brewskies.
I wish things were different, but they are not. I cannot change it or even make a dent.
I will do what I can to save a few acres of marsh lands, insure my wife and granddaughter are taken care of, hunt and fish as long as I am still allowed. Beyond that, I will vote so I can complain and PRAY that I will be left alone to die a free man. Otherwise, I will go down fighting.

I voted for him before and I'd do it again...i don't agree with his isolationist poition, but i am not a single issue voter either...and i do agree with xiggi...he can't get elected...the 2 major parties have a strangle hold on the sheeple and most of them will not educate themselves enough to go away form the "populace" vote....
I did not vote for him and would not unless it came down to him or Obama, then I would.
Even IF he got elected it would make NO difference what so ever. The congress would bury his ideas. This government and it's left wing wackos are entrenched and there is not much that could move them out. There are not enough People left to drive them out.

Why not?
If you want someone who would actually fight for the constitution as you see it, he would be your guy.
One, I don't trust ANYONE who is NOW in office. If they have been in an elected office for more than one term they have to go. Second, I don't like his isolationist ideas, dangerous. (not that what we have now is any good) Third, he does not "inspire" me when he speaks. All the passion of dry toast. Not a leader in my eyes.
Yes, unfortunately, Ron Paul does come across as a drab, uninspiring isolationist. He has some interesting economic ideas. By all accounts Paul is known to be a good and decent man. 76 years old, perhaps a little tired and cranky. Nice guy, yes. Leader, no.
From all I can find out he is a good, solid man. I do think he is too old. Not a leader that I would follow.

Well I agree with Aristole but will add that we may not have a choice with the isolationist thing. Our job isn't to police the rest of the world and by removing troops out of Korea, Middle East and especially Africa and Europe, won't make us any more unprotected as we are now. His point is to do the diplomatic thing while not having the same BS we have done in the past with our troops. Right now we have a senator acting as a diplomat, bad thing and crosses over into the constitutional issue with separation of powers.
A second thought I have to add, what does it matter if he inspires you, your not going off to war or asking to sacrifice something. The best presidents we have ever had were not the best speech makers and lacked inspirational flair. You should ask yourself this; do we really need a rock star president, a president who is concerned with polls or one who just wants to get the job done?

Actually that's not quite accurate - at least if you believe Vegas oddsmakers ..... true enough, it's long odds ... but not zero.
Be interesting to see what happens with that number as November 2012 draws nearer.
The only thing that is required for it to happen is for people to make a decision .... and making a decision is perhaps one of the easiest things that an individual can do.
Whether he is elected or not, he's changed the debate for the better (IMO), and energized and inspired many young individuals to become educated on political matters and active - which is a good thing.

I don't care about a "rock star" They are not leaders. I don't believe he can get the job done. Just my opinion and that is all I vote on. I have no doubt that there will not be a candidate running this time that I would like to see in. I will vote against Obama. I don't like Paul. Just how it is. He is old news and needs voted out with the rest that are in there today.
Good for you. I am happy you like him.(I mean that, not a smart butt remark) I wish I could like ANYONE. Don't ask me for any help or donations. I hope that they ALL lose and go away.
