    What is defending american intersts in the ME all about. We hear it all the time. We must defend our interests abroad. What do you think that means?

    Bachmann, Romney and Perry cannot beat Obama. None of them appeal to anyone but conservatives and there are not enough conservatives to win the national election.

    How does he split the vote? He even will get more moderate dems than any of the social conservatives that are trying to oppress the civil rights of others. Why do you think he is getting so much support from the polls on line and in Iowa? People are tired of 10 years of war, the military is sick of it, and so are the independents and moderate reps and dems. He is the middle really. Best of both worlds.

    I was listening to Kilmeed and friends this morning and someone brought up Ron Paul. Kilmeede says Ron is unelectible blah blah blah, then goes on to say it is his job to say his opinion about the matter. Seems like he forgets that his opinion is not worth as much as the 4,200 people from Iowa that voted for Ron.

    It is sick that this is the way that the media really thinks we are more interested in their opinion more than we are interested in the news. Ron getting 2nd IS news, and should be covered with more than a half a sentence blurb talking about who got what place.

    I'm gonna get pounded for this statement, but I'd vote bama over any of those 3. Having said that, I'd vote Ron Paul over all.

    Perry, is GWB all over again. As bad as bama is, I want no part of another GWB.
    Bachman, more of a loonie than Paul and a hypocrite on top.
    Romney not so sure about. Nothing against him other that he's lost before.

    He cant win because the right winged media is agains him.

    The media has been nice as can be to Ron Paul. That's because he's a blame america first leftist. He's worse than Rev. Wright.

    I would LOVE to see Ron Paul elected to the Whitehouse. ...but I would fear for his life... If history is a yardstick.. anybody who messes with the Global central Banking Cartel doesnt live long after.

    Thats BS they ignore him completly, they never mention him Stewart summed it up nicely . Paul got almost as much votes as the winner but didnt even get mentioned and they mentioed up to almost 60 times less votes like huntsmen.

    Agreed.

    Ron Paul comes across as a very independent thinker and person with your county's best interest at heart...sound familiar?

    Politicians are like the telephone company...they'll tell you anything to get you to sign-up...and then you get the bill...

    Ahhh, no. Rev Wright only blames white Americans. Ron Paul blames all Americans. But Ron is right. It is our own fault that Iraqis are killing soldiers. It is our own fault that AQ is still able to kill soldiers. It is our own fault that Iran has no opposition to them cunstructing the bomb now that Saddam is out of the way. And he is deffinatly not a lefty, he is actually telling the truth so there is no way he can be a lefty. And he is accurate, so he really can't be a righty either.

    Since when do you speak for 'everybody'.

    Some people are still in defiance. Or is your purpose here just to be obtuse with a splash of aggression?

    But Ron really has never changed his stance on anything. Look at most of the politicians, especially the ones that have been there for 10+ years, they have changed their position when ever their people feel like there needs to be a change. Now this isn't necessarily bad doing what your voters want you to do, but it calls into question your own principles and where you will vote when something comes out that you may like and have campaigned on before, but your voters dislike. Ron Paul votes the way he has campaigned for 30+ years now, and his voters keep him cause that is what they want, not because he changes everytime.

    Get your head checked. My post directed at Texmaster applies to you as well. All you flip flopping hypocrites can go pound sand.

    You oughta put that statement into you sig.
    That describes about 80% of the RW hacks.
    All for small gov't except when it's for them or a need arises. Then they are 1st in line with their hands out.

    Ron Paul is bonkers but it's funny to see the clip of Fox so blatantly ignoring him.

    Nope,,he's not Dynamic enough, the Dems will vote Obama or they wont vote. I do not mind him, but he is just not a big draw. He would lose to Obama.

    It was a Microsoft and NBC creation to get into cable news and attempt to give CNN a run for their money but no one seen FOX coming that is now totally dominating Cable News and even has larger viewer audience then your major broadcast news shows.
