    LOL. Logically, if a "conservative" News source is supporting a democrat, or liberal, they must get the sense that Ron Paul is getting the Nomination.

    Hate Mail Alert: Mike Huckabee On Ron Paul’s ‘Fanatical Believers’ And ‘Decent, Patriotic’ Barack Obama

    Former Iowa Caucuses-winner Mike Huckabee apparently wants to spend his post-Christmas days deleting hate mail from his inbox. In an interview with Fox News Sunday‘s Chris Wallace, Huckabee delivered a fairly blistering assessment of Iowa frontrunner Rep. Ron Paul and his “fanatical believers.”

    As if pissing off the Ronulans wasn’t enough, Huckabee denounced his party’s candidates for being too mean to President Obama, whom he called a “decent, patriotic American.”

    Wallace began by trying to suck Huckabee into his own feud with Ron Paul fans, asking if a win by the Texas congressman would discredit the Iowa Caucuses. The former Arkansas Governor obliged Wallace, flatly declaring that Ron Paul “is not going to be elected president.”

    “His views on foreign policy,” Huckabee said, “are so much an anathema to Republicans and Democrats and what I call middle of the road people. He has a core of fanatical believers, and they don’t represent mainstream Americans. It is not okay for Iran to have a nuclear weapon.”

    Unless I missed something, though, Ron Paul didn’t say it was “okay” for Iran to have a nuclear weapon. There are fair arguments to be had over what Paul actually did say, which was that the US shouldn’t use military force to preempt Iran’s acquisition of such a weapon, but Huckabee’s remarks were an unfair distortion of Paul’s position.

    Asked whether he second-guessed himself over his decision not to run for president, Huckabee really went for it. “Republicans can’t decide what they want to be when they grow up,” he said, adding, “I know they want to beat Obama, but in the process, they want to tear each other up so much, they want to savage each other so much that it will be difficult to beat Obama.”

    “If I ran,” Huckabee continued, “it would be because I wanted to bring some ideas to the race, but I realize that will not be the focus. It is how mean can a person be.

    “I don’t want to savage Barack Obama,” he said, later adding, “I think he’s a decent, patriotic American. He loves america different than me, but I don’t doubt he loves America.”

    It should be noted that Huckabee wasn’t always on such a high road where President Obama is concerned. I guess it’s easier to be nice from the sidelines.

    If Ron Paul gets the nomination even Hannity will. "Obama has always been good on foreign policy. He launched a surge in Afghanistan to defeat the Taliban. He helped overthrow a Dictator in Libya. Obama keeps us safe."

    Antagonism. They do the opposite (a 'right' news media supporting a 'left' candidate) to reach a goal , having a maximum number of votes on a single presidential candidate on 6 nov 2012 (historical post 9/11 elections, after eleven years of fear and propaganda) To cause the opposite (make 'conservative' people angry about attacking their candidate or supporting a 'left' candidate)
    Same trick is used in anti vote Youtube clips, tell people not to vote to let them vote even more. This system needs more votes than ever before, need more power, even absolute power (remember how they used the power of the German people to reach their empire)
    Most people don't notice antagonism, it is a trick for the mind (or as you hear on e.g infowars, 'there is a war going on for your mind' ) They all throw it right in your face, because they know they can do this. They know most people can't see their tricks and propaganda (but some do :cool: )

    Kinda like rats jumping the burning and sinking ship, eh?
    Maybe they too just just got sick of always hearing stupidity tossed at the better half of America and see the tide returning to something better than what con jobs have been dishing out forever.

    Huckabee is just another mass murder-supporting pseudo-Christian. I hope he burns in his imaginary hell.

    The Republican establishment is just escalating it's campaign to stop Paul at all costs. Unfortunately for them, they still haven't escalated it enough.
    Paul holds all the cards at this point. Not quite enough to win on his own, but enough to guarantee a Republican defeat if they don't accede to his demands.
    The entire tone will change once they come to the inevitable conclusion that they don't actually have a choice.

    Ron Paul holds Nothing until after the vote, then we'll see.
    Just like everyone has already shown..over and over the same dirty tactic used to try and get support where there is none.
    Now throw in threats about causing Republicans to lose...very UN ROMNEY like..very UN conservative like..and very predictable indeed.

    If Paul cant get support..threaten ?
    gee how uniting is that ?
    Now he using the same newsletter tactic "the DOOMSDAY effect" if he is not elected..
    The scholars..The main stream people.. are all fleeing the sinking Paul ship.

    But dont worry..Romney will un do all the negative stuff Obama did and you will be able to find a job.
    Be happy.. You and Paul were wrong again. :shocked:

    While some FNC/FBN host may openly fear Paul's attitudes on foreign policy, it's a stretch to say they "support Obama". We have treaties/agreements with most every friendly nation which can't AND WON'T be ignored, whomever is elected President (including Obama or Paul) and it's just that simple. Isolationism might be a good political tool, but the US threw that card out, when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and we entered WWII.

    My opinion on the Paul Cult, is most are simply proponents of the Constitution on issues important to themselves. Many others, including myself, feel the "so called" drug war has long ago been lost, that those involved to whatever degree simply have ignored the laws and we would be better off letting States do what their people want done, if anything. Funny thing here, is most I've known in this cult like group, also favor Single Payer Medical Care....

    Via Ben Domenech’s Transom comes perhaps the least surprising news of the month. That news is that almost exactly half of all Ron Paul supporters in Iowa and New Hampshire self-identity as non-Republican. Without the support of these Democrats and Independents, Paul pulls roughly the same trivial level of support he got in 2008. This has some important implications for the state of the race.

    First, as Neil Stevens has been patiently noting here on the front page, this makes Paul’s level of support in Iowa potentially much softer than it appears.

    http://www.redstate.com/

    End..There's more but let's look at this stuff..
    Democrats and independents are screwing with the 1st 2 Republican votes.

    Then If Romney is somehow stopped...American and DEM s will simply vote for Obama.Just like last time.

    Game over..and you was played like a fiddle. :(

    Read the OP. Huckabee is widely considered to be the most outspoken against Obama. If you watch his shows, it is very normal for him to dedicate an entire segment to speaking directly to the president in disgust.

    Now, all of a sudden, he sympathizes with Obama? Really? He has been the one calling the most names...

    Well now it appears that Fox has no choice but to support Obama. He is the only Presidential candidate who really keeps the establishment in his heart.

    LOL

    I would love to see Paul win the nomination to see Fox support Obama. THAT would be historic.

    Its the only logical conclusion, since the media is owned by the elite that propped Obama up. They need to protect their stake.

    it's not my fault that ron paul lost and it's quite obvious your comments on romney are directly related to his competition against ron paul
