That was epic.  If you live in an open primary state, get the Republican ballot and make it Obama v. Paul.  Heck, I’d register as a Republican to vote for this guy if required.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC, HILARIOUS AND TRUE!

God Bless you Jon Stewart!!

Dear God, this is like a nightmare.

As a Ron Paul supporter this is beyond frustrating.

WE NEED A $10 MILLION DOLLAR MONEY BOMB.

BUT WILL THEY REPORT IT?

Brilliant.

Ron Chomsky won’t be loved by the media, deepening the affection of those already enamored.

One of the greatest Daily Show segments ever!

I love you, Jon Stewart. Thank you for educating and entertaining. You will go down in history as a hero.

at this point I might actually vote paul if it came down to it.

Thank goodness Stewart filed this report. It may very well have kept Ben’s sanity. I wish someone would win the lottery and give like half of it to Ron Paul. Ali Veshi made a good point (surprise, I know) on The Daily Show tonight that I’ll reiterate: People don’t trust the government. Well, Ali failed to realize that they also don’t trust CNN and the MSM. The MSM ignoring Ron Paul just gives him more credibility to those who are aware of his name (and saw the debate the other night). The problem is that it does become a self fulfilling prophecy where they media know they have more power than the candidates and flex that muscle. Thanks to JS for spending more time on his show highlighting Ron Paul’s success than the MSM did all weekend + today. 

I just crapped my pants.

Ron Paul 2012.

Ron Paul getting some respect from the media! Finally! Thank you Jon Stewart.

I’d vote for a monkey against what we have, now.

Btw, was Lebow wearing his news hat or his comedy hat, tonight?

Completely true…

I am voting for Ron Paul. I am registering as Republican, so that I can help him get the nomination. He needs all the help that he can get. We are up against the mainstream media..

On a side note.. I look forward to a Paul vs. Obama debate. No teleprompters allowed for Mr. Obama.

Funny, but scary. It’s time people start thinking about whose job it is to pick candidates: the people or the media.

http://www.revolutionpac.com/Their money bomb is Sept. 19.  Let’s see if any billionaires pony up to support the one candidate who understands the origins of our economic woes, Ron Paul.

If I ever see that CNN anchor from the last few seconds in the street I will attack him like a wild dog infected with zombism. I don’t care.

Keep the Ron Paul stuff, we want Sarah Palin????? Ummmm……..

http://tinyurl.com/cqq5ho

Whoa!!… How could EVERYONE totally ignore Ron Paul!?  He’s easily a top tier candidate now.  Great work Jon, and GO RON PAUL!

Unbelievable! Looks like the grassroots will have to pull him through.  If you’ve been saying “too bad we can’t get a president like ron paul in office” put your money where your mouth is:   http://www.revolutionpac.com/ 

Also spread the word with this viral campaign: http://thetrepanation.com/trepanation-store/viral-sticker-packs/

It would’ve been nice if you didn’t cut off the clip right before he got to the punchline that’s part of your headline.

you haven’t heard of political comedy have you?

Incredible work by Jon Stewart exposing the REAL comedians of the media: Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc.

Epic win for the Dailyshow! I am going to have to tune into Stewart for real tv news this season!

Pretty Funny… unfortunately it is true.  Fox News is the worst!!!  I have even Neocons admitting that they are totally biased.  But this is true of most of the main news outlets.  Very few tell the whole truth.

Looks like the sheep are falling in line…

Is Lebow throwing Obama directly under his armored bus?

i’d vote for a used condom over Texan.

It appears that texan is infront of of a sekrat firing squad with jelly bean bullets.

That’s how smart you sound.  

yes of course, anybody who disagrees with you is a sheep. Take note, any moron who tries to use any form of the words sheep, sheeple, follower or whatever is a moron who can’t actual make an argument.

Wow.  I guess Comedy Central didn’t get the memo.

Good call, i think the used condom would make a far more effective commentator than him. It certainly wouldn’t bring up the same tired talking points it heard from rush limbaugh in every debate.

Does it matter?

THANKS FOR THIS!! LMAO
RON PAUL 2012!!!

Best John Stewart show EVER!

you haven’t actually watched the show have you?

to all those paul supporters:  what do you think are ron paul’s most obvious
limitations?

and you KNOW there are many

Lewob is commenting on the Republican candidates.

I think you meant jizzed.

I think you meant jizzed.

Fawk them if they dont report it.  What we really need is a 30 minute Ron Paul infomercial to be aired starting a week before the primary election and shown 2-3 times before ea. primary.  This infomerical can explain Ron’s views without any of these reporters twisting them.  Jon Stewart just got a new fan!

An unwillingness to be bought by special interests.

Kudos to Jon Stewart for calling out the MSM on this one!!  He is showing on National Television (well, OK, Cable) what so many of us have been saying for years: the MSM lies, obfuscates, and selectively slants what is covered.  It’s been going on for years (that’s how Obama was elected).  It’s just that now they are so blatantly obvious about it, how can ANYONE not see it?  I am a registered Independent, but I just might change that to Republican just so that I can vote for Ron Paul, even if I have to write in his name!

There is no campaign donation limit either to this PAC.  Hopefully Ron can raise $20 million or more on that day.  That will be a shot across the bow of those neocon phonies.

YES VOTE FOR RON PAUL 2012!

It’s so blatant across Main Stream Media outlets of the left and right it makes a person sick… makes you wonder why huh…How much more do people have to understand how all media “news” is purchased for the left or the right old guard?

Is it hard to find dirt on a guy that been in Washington that long? Maybe because he’s an actual honest common sense person? Ron Paul is just so right on so many issues it scares the SHIT out of Washington! This is what a true leader should do! How could someone not want him as the President!!

Ron Paul – 2012 – Media and Old Guard may not want you.. But “We the People” do!!

truth in Media “news”? ..my ass!

this is why I don’t watch cnn(Cartoon News Network) or fox news, all LIES and propaganda.  Pretty sad commentary that we have to get the real news on the comedy channel.  Great stuff Jon Stewart.

He’s a thinker and intellectual leader, not a great speaker. 

He’s good at debating someone, one on one, but not at giving those

stupid, feel-good answers.  He has to educate because we’re so freaking stupid.

As a result it can be difficult for people to understand him so they just call him “wacko”.

When someone calls him wacko that just means they don’t understand his positions.

The media whores, who are puppets for the special interests–can NOT have Ron Paul getting any press out there. He is the only candidate that can unite the country on our common heritage, and instead of fighting each other–people will turn their attention to the crooks in both parties that are selling us out and making themselves millionaires in the process!

I mean the guy brings together Libertarians, Conservatives, Progressives, Liberals, Greens, Constitutionalists, Anarchists, Christians, Atheists, Muslims, etc. Seriously, the establishment is in full-blown propaganda-spewing, fear-induced panic-mode over the prospect of a Paul presidency to depose George W. Obama. Their entire looting scheme depends on “divide and conquer” and pitting the masses against each other. If Paul gets in, the gig is up!

You can do that. Register republican, vote for Paul in the primary, then change back if you so desire.  Better yet, register republican, become a delegate in your district and make sure you get Ron Paul on the ballot. 

First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win- gandhi

Please Mediaite writers, no more strike-through tags.  If you’re trying to write something; write it. There’s no need for a story to look like it has been edited at the last minute to reflect the author’s change of heart.

The tags are so tacky outdated.

Now, get a clean depends.

Shall we hold our breath for Warren or Bill?

you haven’t heard of political comedy have you?

I’d pay to see that. 

Cee, the funny thing is I don’t listen to Limbaugh. LOL!

An unwillingness to compromise his principles for a better appeal.

Thanks loads, Mr. Stewart.  Ron Paul 2012 for sound money, peace and prosperity. 

Thank you Jon Stewart… 

Way to go, Jon Stewart! You’ve got more brains – and ba**S – than any of the other morons in the media pretending that “13th floor” doesn’t exist! May you be favored and blessed for having the decency and the guts to speak the TRUTH!  

I have to say I am impressed with Jon… And I am normally not. 

Thank Jon Stewart for bringing light to this mystery of Ron Paul being invisible to the mainstream media. How obvious can they be with ignoring him like that. 

Must read article on Paul here…

Paul’s independent streak put him at odds with a Republican leadership that ran Congress like a Tammany Hall machine and punished anyone who strayed. Paul strayed habitually. In 2003, his seniority put him in line to chair the subcommittee that oversees the Federal Reserve. To deny him, Republican leaders merged two committees. In 2005, he was again set to assume the top spot. With another merger impossible, a senior colleague was pressured onto the subcommittee so that she, and not Paul, would take the gavel.

“They look at him as a problem,” says Representative Barney Frank, the Massachusetts Democrat who chairs the Financial Services Committee and co-sponsored bills with Paul legalizing marijuana and Internet gambling. “Ron said to me in 2005, ‘I guess I’ll have to wait for you to be chairman, because we never get anywhere around here.’”

ron paul 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is becoming more and more obvious to people on all sides of the aisle how he mainstream media is nothing more than a mouthpiece of the establishment. Ron Paul w/ the MSM’s help will show the world how the establishment controls the media. I just hope the liberals on this board will substitute the world “establishment” with “the state”. It is the same. Ron Paul has warned for decades about the dangers of big statists and big government. The Right refuses to see their statism in wanting to police the world and call for all out WAR with Iran, a nation will no airforce, navy, etc. Have the neocons suddenly become the ninnies they so “abhor”? By the same token, the nanny statists enjoy the police statists in that they will enforce their “do good” nanny state… Ron Paul has said for decades that the nanny statists and the police statists are virtually no different. Neither see their love for “the establishment”, they merely excuse it. Once people begin TRULY understanding Ron Paul’s message of FREEDOM, indiviual responsiblity, accountability, and the idea behind a TRUE free market, then the awakening  will be brisk. There will be absolutely no turning back. One shouldn’t underestimate “the red pill”.     

im not a Stewart fan….but……….man did he hit the nail on the head with THIS one. Thanks Jon

Congressman
Ron Paul’s finished second by only 152 votes, yet
the media deliberately ignored that fact and refuses to report on anything having to do with him. It is the so-called journalists who should be ashamed. Whatever institutions granted them a journalism degree should move to have it revoked. Congressman Paul is the only declared candidate in either party that would end these senseless wars and restore peace and prosperity to our country.

This was the most up in your front expose on media bias I have seen…and being hilarious was just icing on the cake. The worst part is it is true and will (most likely) continue to exist against Ron Paul. Major thanks to Jon Stewart though for pointing out the intentional and obvious media downplay of Ron Paul and his ideas!

Hell, I’d vote for Ron Paul just for the sake of implementing his foreign policy.

eggcellent fails to mention that the mainstream media includes fox :)

Ron Paul Always Wins!  http://t.co/sfpri7c

I personally want 4 years of Anthony Weiner. not Obama and not Ron Paul.

At least Ron Paul doesn’t sway

Thanks Mr. Stewart. That took a lot of sack to say what you said on air. It’s about time someone show MSM what a joke they really are. Go Ron Paul!

you’re still a blind partisan hack with no balls.

Amen. The MSM and their masters want us to keep bickering between right and left. They don’t want us to realize that the continuum also swings up and down. As the 400 or so elites keeping moving up, the other 300,000,000 of us continue on a predetermined downward incline. Ron Paul wants to change that. Don’t focus on left vs right, it won’t get you anywhere. Ron Paul’s campaign at the heart of it is about all of us Americans, peacefully, soverignly, together, moving up.

I wonder, does Jon Stewart ever get bored owning the mainstream media outlets (at this point, you can add fox to the list)

I most of the time agree, but I realize in this case it was meant for comedy. The title of the article, on the other hand, is a bit of a backhanded compliment. Still I appreciate Mediaite doing their job and being one step ahead of the news media all along the way

Peace and prosperity should be our goal. Go Ron!

Peace and prosperity should be our goal. Go Ron!

Jon you are absolutely brilliant. Ron Paul had my vote last time around and we will certainly have it again. lol, Just think about how much great comedy this is going to create over the next year. The mainstream clowns have become the laughing stock of the country and the hilarious part is they don’t even realize it yet. They might not ever realize it until they are standing on a street corner in their tattered suits talking into a rotten banana wondering where all their viewers went.  

Living in Canada, and keeping up with what’s going on down there, it’s amazing how the general public works. As ideal as it would be to have Paul in office, I doubt it’ll happen. I can’t begin to imagine the frustration you guys experience. Now, to go back to the frustrations of our issues.

Well said and couldnt agree more.
RON PAUL2012!!!

Here is the meme I’d like help spreading.

I am a Republican and an ardent Paul supporter. We represent a large
plurality of the party. Our views are being discounted and our
candidate marginalized. I know GOP Leadership can affect this problem
and get Ron Paul the TV time his second place at Ames and wins elsewhere
have earned him. Therefore, if this problem is not corrected by GOP
Leadership and Ron Paul does not receive the nomination, I will vote a
straight Democrat ticket right down to dog catcher. I can and will make
you lose every seat in the House, the Senate, the State Senates,
Governorships, and every single other elected position right down to dog
catcher. If you correct the problem and Ron Paul is STILL not
nominated, you can count on my support as usual.

that’s a “limitation”? 

i agree

People are waking up to the fraud that IS the MSM. They marginalize Ron Paul because he threatens their little crap game. Interesting to see how ALL 3 flavors of MSM bullsh!t  had similar talking points, and or ignorance points.
Has ANYONE ever heard of the results of a horse race announced 1st,___.3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th,???They don’t want people to know that Ron Paul got more donations from the military than ALL of the “R” candidates COMBINED. He even got more than B.O.  Ron Paul is the ONLY one with INTEGRITY in this race, and in DC as far as I’m concerned. He’s the ONLY one who hasn’t sold out. That is why the media tries to ignore him, and or make him look “unelectable”.  They are doing their corporate master’s bidding. “PRESSTITUTES”Last chance to get it right America. Ron Paul 2012

Me too!  I’m a republican for this election.  Check with your state for primary guidelines, etc.

What’s it liked getting hoodwinked and hard?

I would pay my bills and give the rest to Ron Paul because he is the only one who speaks of the two most important issues we face. 1. The FED.  In would guess in one term your income tax would be a thing of the past. 2. NO MORE undeclared wars.   That is why they kick Ron Paul to the curb.  They (all main stream media) are owned by the FED and the FED means war.  They are scared sh#$Q%less of Ron Paul and the people figuring out the “rest of the story.”  

I don’t know. I never voted for Bush and I won’t be voting for Perry.

Lack of honest reporting and a very dumbed down population that doesn’t understand common sense.

The mainstream media isn’t corrupt. They are America’s finest.

Oh yea? Did yall run out of maple syrup there eh?

The Tea Party pretends to support Libertarian values like those championed by Paul for decades. In reality, they represent another avenue to control the true libertarian impulse brewing in the country. The fakers in the MSM would have us vote for Perry and his mandatory vaccinations in Texas, or Romney and his “Romneycare” in Massachusets. There is only one way for us to break the Republican / Tea Party stranglehold… And that is to take our support for Ron Paul seriously so that his efforts result in the change we need. The revolution starts with the people… There can be no retreat or surrender where liberty is concerned!

God Bless you Jon Stewart…

You’re the only one in the “media” that recognizes the propaganda machine that is the MSM and is actually saying something about it.  Like you say, agree or disagree with him, we should at least hear his POV right?  Right?  I mean this is a democracy, a nation of ideas?  We should be allowed to hear other viewpoints…

Shame on the rest of the “media” for continuing to hide the fact that Ron Paul is no longer (never was in reality) a “fringe” candidate.

Thanks again Jon, for getting this word out…part of a long process leading to real change.  I salute you.

Its really a perfect time for Ron Paul.  For a guy that gets labeled by both parties and the MM as “unhinged”, he sure seems pretty rational to me.  He’s probably the common sense voice the country needs to get rid of the copious amount of stupidity.

This is Lebow’s little way of diverting from Obama causing America to be downgraded, Obama spending 2.2 million on a bus and going on tour, the middle east falling to pieces, the economy spiraling downward, etc, etc.

O, that was unbelievably true, sad and funny! I was almost in tears from laughter! Get busy RP supporters, learn about him, if you aren’t sold already. I’ve built a site to train activists for meaningful Ron Paul canvassing…well, just take a look: http://iroots.org/

Fat chance.  That is exactly way they kick him under the bus.  If there was a true free market (no FED) then those fat cats would lose power…the power moves to the people.  You like it, you want it, you work to create money for it, you save and you buy it.  Sounds prettly simple, but truth usually is.

yes, Eggcellent, but check with your state.  Some want you to register republican to vote in the primaries and that is really important so he can win the nomination.  If he doesn’t win that, then unless he switches parties which may not be allowed, he will not win.

Ron Paul is the man! He is the only candidate with any good ideas what so ever, not to mention he is the only honest politician alive.

RON PAUL 2012

John Stewart thank you so much for calling out this bias.  I was running a mix of emotions from shouting with joy and cheering as you called them out to feeling sick as they laughed about excluding Dr Paul.  Even more CNN had Politico on and one comment was something like “I guess we are in the business of kicking out candidates.” 

Can people from other countries donate too?  There are millions all over the world who want RP pres. because he wants peace and sound money. 

The Democratic presidential primary will be uncontested. If you are anti-war and pro-freedom, vote in your states Republican primary for Ron Paul. Check local rules to see if you need to change affiliation in advance. Even if you don’t agree with Ron Paul 100%, would you prefer one of the other Neo-Con’s getting the Republican nomination? Become a Blue Republican for the primaries, support Freedom, and vote Ron Paul.

wonder if donald trump does

Thank you Jon,

I am from Ireland and became a proud citizen of America last year. The way that the MSM has been ignoring Ron Paul is a disgrace and it is shameful. For as long as I can remember I looked to America as being a beacon of life and liberty to the rest of the world. America has lost its way and I know Ron Paul can set her back on course. My first presidential vote will be for Ron Paul.

I love “If Paul gets in, the gig is up!”

I dont think you can donate directly to the Ron Paul campaign; however, I am not sure about the Revolution PAC that was just started. Check with those guys.

Not a huge fan of Stewart but he nailed it here.

Just a warning to Ron Paul fans who have found your way to Mediaite.com.  Most of the writers here have a strong left wing bias and this site can be just as frustrating to read as it is to watch the mainstream media.

THANK JON THANK U MR LEIBOWITZ… U ARE THE SHIZNIT! I know you don’t agree with a lot of what Ron Paul stands for. But at least you are willing to take on Fox News CNN MSNBC and the others for not even mentioning Ron Paul even though he is doing very well in polls and straw polls… Ron Paul won the CPAC straw poll he won the SRLC straw poll… he won so many polls… Time for Ron Paul to get some recognition yo!

LOL @746336bf52bd66f290b25ae95748fe71:disqus  Fat Libertarian.   Your right man, the whole blasted Congress is stupid, he has to constantly teach so that it goes down on record that he told them to do the right thing 30+ YEARS AGO, and not a stupid one of them listened. The media didn’t report truth, the schools become more and more politically correct and the population became dumb and dumber and BINGO they you have it…a nation imploding with debt and all those other things that cause old Rome to collapse.  If people vote for Obama and one of these other Neo-Cons again they will go down in history as the dumbest population in the history of mankind.

The mainstream media’s exclusion of Ron Paul is quite disgusting, especially considering that he is polling much higher nationally than he was in 2008 when the media used his 2% poll results as an excuse.

Please do, find me on Facebook! I was Independent too and went back Republican ONLY to vote for Ron Paul. If he wasn’t running I would have to write in Thomas Jefferson, even though he’s a dead president lol

What we need is a massive boycott of all the media outlets that are ignoring Dr. Paul. 

In North Carolina, if you register as “Unaffiliated” you can vote in both primaries

Tea party? Tea party?…..I’m not part of no stinkin tea party!!!!!! I’m a member of the r3volution!!!!!!!!!!!!! The weaker  people of the tea party sold themselves for less than 30 pieces of silver…..They tried to buy our souls but we resisted and followed the true leader and we are the R3VOLUTION!!!

You nailed it!

Ron Chomsky? Dear God, you’ve created a monster…p_o

I came from being Independent to Republican JUST to vote for Ron Paul:
WAR: That is where most of our wealth is squandered. You and everyone is welcome to read this list of countries we are in aside from the 4 wars we are in: Its destroying U.S.!  We have Republicrats, two sides of the same coin.
http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=177296342342871

speaking of dumbed down population, he would love to dismantle the 
department of education….how will that make us smarter?

i agree.but there are some “tea parties” who are standing stong. They are pissed in florida at the sellout alan west. Dont throw the baby out with the bathwater. I too am here for THE REVOLUTION and will not compromise for anything less…………We MUST awaken the tea parties that are on the fence. The are scared shitless to take the plundge into TRUE freedom, we must help them………it frustrating, but important. KEEP hittin em with the message of true liberty———–some will get it, some wount.

I have to admit that I was feeling really down after the shutout this weekend.  The media bashing was hard to take and to try and explain to people dismissing it was even worse.  Watching this and giving it to the MSM at the same time just made my day.  Mr. Stewart thank you on behalf of Dr Paul and you have my respect and gratitude.

I think the “Lame Stream Media” has shot themselves in the foot with this one.
They have solidified their irrelevance.
Long live Comedy Central! ;-)

NOW all the conservatives suddenly love…….john stewart

not even close.

slipped this one past the Viacom overlords!

oh goody.  Everyone is trembling in their boots.

Are you for real? lol

Age.  Looks.  Poor speaker. All things that nobody should consider when voting, but unfortunately, most do.

Jon Stewart, you are a model American and insightful to the last. Thanks for hearing us all on the forums. Ron HAS been getting beat up by fox and affiliates since his entry into the 2012 election. Surely though, Red Team has Gone on this one. Ron Paul is going to be the only option to get Republicans another term at least in the President’s chair for a while. After 8 years of Bush, they need someone to save the GOP a little face.

get it right if you’re going to attempt to converse. 

He thinks the States not the Feds should be in charge, as it was for many years.

There would be departments of education as there are now but instead of doubling down on stupid…..

btw Ron Paul’s chances – slim to nil

they do?

no but you voted for obama…lmbao!

Darladoon please check out Charlott Iserbyt, former senior policy advisor for the Department of Education Re: The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDyDtYy2I0M
She explains and documents how government schools are there to promote themselves, the government, rather than teach the truth. She was a whistle blower during the Reagan Administration. Her work is nothigng less than fascinating.  
From one of her articles titled “The Seven Prong Fork”
http://www.deliberatedumbingdown.com/pages/articles/Devils_Seven_Prong_Fork.html

Prong One:
Semantic Deception, covered by George Orwell in 1984, calls for lying through the deceitful use of words. Few Americans question the innocent-sounding words/phrases such as “regionalism,” “consolidation,” “democracy” “free trade,” “public/private partnerships,” “school choice,” “base closures” “faith-based,” “freedom,” “patriot,” “security,” “prosperity,” “peace” et al. 

Prong Two
is the constant use of German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Hegel’s (1770-1831) Dialectic in moving persons toward predetermined goals and objectives. 

Prong Three
is the use of Gradualism (put the frog in cold water and gradually turn up the heat until the frog is dead, without having the faintest idea what happened to him.)

Prong Four
is CONTROL OF THE MEDIA

Prong Five
/Endless Money Supply 

Prong Six relates to control of agenda of Republican and Democrat Parties, allowing only those individuals with an international socialist philosophy to be nominated and, once elected, ensuring they vote the One Party (internationalist) Line.

Prong Seven is UN control of education lifelong under the umbrella of the school district (community re-education).

If Ron Paul wins the Republican primary, I suggest he pick Bernie Sanders as his running mate. If he loses the primary, I suggest that he runs on a Sanders/Paul ticket in a Democratic primary opposition to Obama. We need to show America that we can come together despite our political disagreements, and that character and integrity trump pure ideology.

The waves of liberty slow for no shore, break for no barrier and cease only when the dawn of freedom is born.

Ron Paul is getting screwed over!
This is so wrong.
Jon Stewart is correct.
Disgusting. I have some disagreements with Ron Paul, but Paul does not deserve to be treated like this
The Media should be ashamed.

Not the Neocon and/or fundamentalist Christian crowd.

MSM is a joke. They are playing to their own music and being manipulated by their masters, the banksters that own them. They have become nothing but comedy shows that don’t care about reporting the real news. They wouldn’t even need to be there. Their script was already printed for them before they got there. I wonder what they would have don’t if Ron was first ?    lol

This is illegal stuff, criminal, and they should all be going to jail IMO.  Trying to shape a Presidential election by misreporting the outcome and influence voters by such fraudulent reporting is insane and comical. 
Too bad that MSM is still watched by so many people. Bachmann first, Paul second, and somehow Bachmann, Romney and Perry become the frontrunners ?????   CNN even has a clip where they are admitting that they are ignoring Ron Paul.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v​=LlnHC2OsRHk
I suggest watching unbiased news sources, internet news sources are best if you can find a good one. 

You forgot about the Palinistas.
They don’t.

RON PAUL 2012

He is the ONLY sane choice. The rest are sideshow freaks and liars.

The same Department of Education that has destroyed our schools with a decade of no child left behind….. Fu** the department of education and all those wasted gov. salaries. Education should be left to the states, and schools should get their hands out of the federal cookie jar.

it’s not a states issue, dude

if it were, we would have much worse problems

conspiracy nut?  i think so….

(p.s. NOW you’re an “anti-statist”, whereas 3 years ago, you never heard of it)

another pie in the sky moron

yeah, i’ll take weiner

I respect Ron Paul, that is more than I can say for most of the Presidential contenders.
Ron Paul running for POTUS is very healthy for the political process, whether one supports him or not.
He deserves better treatment. He deserves recognition.
Watching that Jon Stewart clip disgusted me.
I can’t blame Ron Paul supporters for being livid.

It’s really just amazing how they ignore him on purpose. I guess it’s true what they say, that the media is actually the fourth branch of the government. Media personalties become so enamored with the people they report that they start to become biased.

Liberal or Conservative, you have to look at this and question Fox and other MSM outlets, it’s really a joke that something like this happens in America.

I guess it’s much easier to resort to name calling when you’re clueless about what you’re talking about. Congratulations.

i’m very well-educated, and probably a lot older than you, and have been involved
in politics for a long time.  i’m also…..an educator.  as are my parents and grand
parents…..

The only way to break the Republican/ Tea Party co-option of true Libertarianism as represented by Dr. Paul is to push for his election… Even if we must write him in at the end. Do we have your vote Nature Freak?

I did because I am.

THANK YOU For the coverage of Ron Paul!  He speaks the truth and everybody needs to hear it!!

Nice mention… I’m looking into that.

Absolutely hilarious! I loved every moment of it and needed a good laugh.

Thank You Jon Stewart. I will be tuning in your show!

And as an educator, who IS it that you will support in this election? Nutcase bachmann… redneck rick… Obama… I’m very curious.

Remember that when the several states controlled education (the way Ron Paul wants it to go back to) the US was #1 in the world for quality education.  Now that the Federal Government is in charge of education, we are 19th and plummeting like a stone.

The Federal Department of Education wastes money like nobody’s business, and their chief purpose in life is to take a dollar from the states and give 10 cents back to those who comply with their dumbing down programs like No Child Left Behind.

The best thing we can possibly do to improve the quality of our children’s education, is to eliminate the Department of Education and give schooling back to the states where it belongs.

We with a :”left-wing” bias recognize Ron Paul’s integrity, and would far rather lose to him than any other conservative. He isn’t a social conservative who would impose that ideology on us , and that is important to us.

If you were truly a teacher, there’s no way that you would defend NCLB. You’re nothing more than a Paul bashing troll.

Words of wisdom; well stated my friend.

The media does not have more power than “US”. Flex your muscles everybody and turn “OUR” passion for LIBERTY into a self fulfilling prophecy. Hit the streets with virtue, vanguard!!! Illuminate the bystanders.

Fox News should LOVE Ron Paul.
Why don’t they?
CNN should at least give him his due as a significant element in the discourse.
I guess all the news outlets have trouble putting him in a left or right box, so they just try to ignore him.

Calling “Conspiracy Theory/ist” is usally the first line of attack, espoused a lot by the MSM especially. It shuts down dialogue and is actually a good example of the Hegelian Dialectic mentioned in Iserbyt’s book. 

It has been predetermine that Ron Paul is a “kook” and a “Conspiracy Theorist”. I would bet anything that Darladoon has no clue as to just who Iserbyt is, or what she actually wrote and said. This does not matter to Darladoon, and other state worshipers- The DOE is allll about “the children”

“…the State ‘has the supreme right against the individual, whose supreme duty is to be a member of the State… for the right of the world spirit is above all special privileges.’” Author/historian William Shirer, quoting Georg Hegel in his The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich 

But that would just be trading one monkey for another. 8 years chimp, 8 years ape – when  what we really need is a human.

They shouldn’t hate him… but this piece was pretty damning, it’s hard to say Fox doesn’t have it’s own agenda.

I am voting Paul 2012. Obama has been nothing more then a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Or better yet, George W. Bush in a Barack Obama suit, because I can not see one freaking difference. 

Thank you Jon for being so Fair and Balanced!

Even if it may not help Ron Paul campaign, it would be great if Jon Stewart could endorse Ron Paul!

In 2003, Ron Paul warned about the housing crisis of 2008.

“The special privileges granted to Fannie and Freddie have distorted the housing market by allowing them to attract capital they coould not attract under pure market conditions .. Like all artificially-created bubbles, the boom in housing prices cannot last forever. When housing prices fall, homeowners will experience difficulty as their equity is wiped out. Furthermore, the holders of the mortgage debt will also have a loss. These losses will be greater than they would have otherwise been had government policy not actively encouraged over-investment in housing.”

Ron Paul
Address to House Financial Services Committee
September 10, 2003

All you TeaBaggers are Pussies!!!

Ron Paul is a Bad Ass!!!!

You will hate this answer, but I don’t know.
My sister is voting for Ron Paul in the upcoming Florida primary and voted for him in the last primary.
I will think about it when I am fully awake.
I going to bed!

He’s over educated.

For example: When he talks about Operation Ajax, he just assumes people know what it is, and how it started our entire war with the Middle East.

He understands economics, and expects people to have some sort of understanding of it, and don’t.

He assumes Americans care, and they don’t.

He assumes that most people have read the Constitution, but they never have.

Americans are too uneducated to vote for him.

It IS a states issue, and if your state was completely crappy, you could leave it.

Just think 50 options to chose from, instead of this one really crappy one.

Ron Paul isn’t against Tea Partiers…

Ron Paul IS getting screwed by the media. And I have to say one of the most LAUGHABLE things that I’ve seen of late was Chris Wallace’s Sunday show, during the “round table” talk at the end. Because as Stewart correctly recapped, it was truly EMBARRASSING how much Wallace and team were crawling over each other, purposefully trying to avoid mentioning Paul at all.

BRAVO to Jon Stewart.
He totally NAILED this one and hit it out of the ballpark.
A true grand slam of comedy, political commentary AND media bias to boot.

Hell, I’d give Stewart another Emmy JUST for this segment alone!!!

I think the reason why they don’t talk about Paul is that he’s against wars and lot of companies make tons of money on war.  Another reason is that they think he will only be a get a small slice of the Republican followers.  

but he Fathered them in his NutSack!?!

Ron Paul – Consistent, doesnt contradict himself, is not a political hack, doesnt chaim himself to a political party, is not mean, is nice, he debaets well, he was agaisnt the iraq war, he predicted alot of things that happened in our economy, he is a former doctor, and he has helped deliver so many babies in this world

Oh REALLLLLY??? Ya Think????

Nutsack???? You’re obviously the TeaBagger pussy I was referring to. 

You TeaBagger Cult members are the most ignorant people that this country has ever produced!

Yeah…but TeaBaggers are for Republican’ts and Republican’ts are against Ron Paul.

TeaBagger Cult members hate themselves? 

Yeah, they do.

I think it drives Fox even crazier that many Dems like Paul…It also pissed some repubs off that he’s not really old guard republican..like someone said earlier he should just go ahead an fly the libertarian flag..  it still pisses me off though that he felt the need to pander to the Evangelical wing in Iowa over social issues… 

I thought FOX was fair and balanced!! 

In a coordinated effort, all mainstream media outfits made the same concerted effort to ignore Ron Paul in the Iowa Straw Poll discussion at the same time.They all must be getting their orders from a single source at the top.The Rothschild’s, who own AP and Reuters maybe?

Talking about media blackout and manipulation, and these Jokers always, always moan about liberal media bias when in fact they are the same. Its been apparent to me that the establishment GOP and the Media (especially Fox) do not want a President Paul, plain and simple. And all the phony tea party and moaners about spending are quiet when this happens. They moan about spending, yet when the real candidate who wants to cut comes in they ignore him because in reality they like the spending, the like the illegal wars and corporate welfare. 

Don’t worry, the media is in panic mode now, they aren’t keep this farce up for much longer, the people are getting louder and LOUDER EVERYDAY!!… Calling THEIR President “RON PAUL! RON PAUL! RON PAUL! RON PAUL! RON PAUL! RON PAUL! RON PAUL!”

Let’s just hope Ron Paul doesn’t end up with the same fate John F Kennedy did.

“Ron Paul 2012 or Bust, it’s THAT simple.”

Was Jon Stewart ever funny?

Time for our own media…. Liberty Works Radio Network!
http://www.lwrn.net

You should register regardless. The local GOP have been known to switch the rules last minute, so they might switch it from a open to closed primary after the period you can change your affiliation. These tricks are how they stole 1st place in Nevada from Ron Paul in 2007/8

Only one limitation.  His answers are well though out, principled and complete if given the chance to respond.  His ‘go to’ is not found on a teleprompter… it is the constitution.  This means that his sound bytes can easily be edited to make him sound like a nutjob. 

 If your parents were smart you would have ended up in a used condom

It is about dang time someone reports the fact that Ron Paul is being ignored by the media. Both Left and Right. Fox News, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh all barely mention him and only do it in passing to another topic. Heck Rush Limbaugh yesterday didnt even name him as someone who is still in the Race!  The Left avoids slandering him cause that will only bring attention to him and he is dang near un-slanderable anyways. He is the best hope of this country i believe, atleast the best hope for the right. He is so far right that he is almost left. He can find TRUE bipartisan agreements. He is the top guy to go to in congress about economics and also believes in removing us from these wars. Top it off he is the only true conservative on that stage. All the other candidates are more or less centrists, especially Mitt Romney and Rick Perry. Heck Rick perry believes in leasing off tax payer funded highways to other countries for crying out loud. Look it up. Everyone should really look into Ron Paul. He is legit.

Look it up. Everyone should really look into Ron Paul. He is legit.

A large portion of the media are truly discrediting themselves. It’s really a lie by omission to pretend that Ron Paul doesn’t exist — or doesn’t matter — when, in fact, he is doing so well and rising in the polls. He’s the person who is framing the debate within the Republican Party. The American public, in general, are moving in his direction…..but “pay no attention to him.” 

It’s a sad commentary on the American media. Too many on the left love big government more than they hate war. Too many on the right want war more than they want liberty. We can’t afford war or big government. 

Ron Paul is telling them truths that they simply do not want to hear, so they stick their heads in the sand and pretend that he doesn’t exist to the best of their abilities. 

Regarding the exchange in the debate between Santorum and Ron Paul about Iran, the media and the other candidates all gloss over the fact that, according to U.S. intelligence agencies, Iran is not even pursuing a nuclear weapon at this time. But even more to the point, if Iran were pursuing a nuclear weapon, the only way to stop them from attaining one would be an all-out ground invasion of Iran. Air power would not be enough. 

Santorum, Bachmann, and a couple of other candidates have said they would do “whatever was necessary” to keep Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. That means an extremely expensive, long, bloody, unpredictable ground war in Iran, followed by the requisite never-ending occupation of Iran. 

If you think Iranians hate us now, after the way the U.S. government deposed their democratically elected president and replaced him with the Shah, who tortured huge numbers of Iranians, imagine how much they will hate us if we invade and initiate war against their country. 

Such an undertaking would ruin this country. If we won, and we probably would, it would be a Pyrrhic victory at best. But we can’t afford it. Since ground war against Iran is not a feasible option, financially or militarily, that means that the other candidates are either promising to bring this nation to ruin pursuing such an unnecessary war OR their positions are really no different from Ron Paul’s position, for all practical purposes. 

Darladoon:

Being well educated does not make you smart. Wisdom and intelligence are two different things, Book smarts and common sense, two different things. You may be book smart but you are missing the truth that is being presented right in front of you, refusing to research it yourself. You would think as an educator you would want to research facts, rather than pass on the information that was given to you that you were told is fact. Also being an educator, your part of the problem. If you wish to be taken seriously at all, please bring your own facts about your opinions to the table. Otherwise you are as useless to this board as you are to the children you supposedly ‘teach.’  Do your own research my friend, conspiracy theories come from somewhere, look into the information behind various conspiracies and you will find some facts and credibility to their arguements.

You did notice that the conservative voice of Fair and balanced Fox news also minimized or ignored Paul as well right?

I actually like Paul for the reasons Jon S mentioned. He’s always made relevant points and stuck to issues he feels strongly about rather than shameless pandering.

I’m getting confused by the terms here. Does MSM include Fox news network or not? I didn’t think it did but they have also been ignoring RP.

Fact: Mediaite’s own site’s moron Jon Stewart!

I’m sure no one is surprised you’d vote for a monkey.

So, it is your contention FOX “News” is MSM.

And, I suppose you need to round up all Americans, take them to a central viewing station and hold guns to their heads to compel them to watch it. What must you be thinking. See, this is Paul’s biggest problem, not Paul himself, but his fans. Paul has some very good ideas, but you all come off as a bunch of nuts.

Did we learn nothing from the “Undefeated”? Self-serving tripe advances nothing.

Even if Paul does not have enough support to win the republican nomination, the fact that he is a viable candidate will raise the level of discussion among all the candidates. Good luck Ron.

Ron Paul is a serious candidate, but people don’t like the idea of him as President. Bret Baier smirking to himself just about summed it up, they don’t think of him as a serious contender. 

Although if he starts polling serious numbers in big states, this time around, they’ll all have to treat him with more respect. 

Either that link doesn’t work or it has been taken off YouTube.

What has it done for us in the last 31 years? Is education better now than it was then? Hell, no. It’s worse.

Scrapping the DofEd wouldn’t make us smarter but it would prove that we’re getting there.

So, the only sane, reasonable, possible thing to do is to pour more money down a rat hole?

Pretty sad commentary that we have to get the real news on the comedy channel.

This is not “real news”.

Seriously, folks. Education in America is abysmal.

Since we are trying to be fair I didn’t hear anyone mention CAIN either. He came in 5th without paying for straw poll voters to vote for him. 

Hey, you voted for a peacock. You got something against monkeys?

foxnews wins in ratings, so by definition it IS the MSM

because the dept of education is just doing a smashing job, right???

Oh, yeah! It’s like he doesn’t even exist over there.

Is Stewart the media now? I thought he was just a comedian.

I have never voted Republican for Pres. but I would vote for Paul – I like him.  dont agree with half his ideas but I fervently believe in the other half.  Lastly I would vote for him anyway just to see what happens when a brave person actually makes it into the white house (have never seen that).

Ron Paul has some good ideas. Too bad his supporters are crazy. 

Not enough sauce on his pizza.

ME too. I am a BIG Paul supporter and can only hope the people and not the media will pick the candidate for the Republican nomination. He is real and the right choice in my opinion.

Do you really want to go down the “monkey” road???

At what point did he say ANYTHING about forcing anyone to do anything. And do you remember how fanatical Obama “fans” were? Do you really want to start comparing the worst of the Paul followers to the worst of Obama followers?

good call considering there are NO USED CONDOMS in texas

Lets rock this whole mess by getting the word out and getting Paul to win!

You are such a sweet person!

nO MORE NUTS THEN all OF THE gop CANDIDATES- GEEZ WHAT A BUNCH OF HOLY ROLLERS,

I agree.  Obama is BUSH LITE.

http://tinyurl.com/3rvuxsm

Ron Paul is the only true conservative in the race. Republicans hate real conservatives. I would vote for Ron Paul over Obama. I hate republicans I hope they die.

Nice try, Jonny. Notice just as Baier was smirking, half the audience was cheering, and the other half was audibly booing? You’re misrepresenting the crowd, but whatever. Clown nose on, clown nose off.

Well, then, do it, man!  Go change your registration today.  Democrats that want to end the wars and stop the transfer of wealth from the middle class to the richest among us have an obligation to do something about it and not wait until the general election.

Good News he is from Pennsylvania originally!

Uh Yeah. He still lost to Michelle Bachmann. That’s quite embarrassing. He’s got a lot of work to do and at this point, unfortunately, hemay be too fringe. The idea that he’s the only one who has not sold out is idiotic. He’s a career politician.

well said

“mediaite’s own site’s moron”

Wth does that even mean?

Close your mouth! You’re catching flies!

Not to mention all the silent booing.

Stewart was ridiculing FOX News for its bullshit claims of balance and professionalism. He wasn’t mocking the crowd.  All of FOX hates Ron Paul, with the possible exception of 9/11 Truther “Judge” Napolitano.

This is a smear. His supporters are intelligent, enthusiastic, and the future of this country.
And supporters of socialists Romney-Perry-Obama are just useful idiots.

I guess you would have a use for it.

no  one  cares

Ron Paul’s supporters consist of Young Republicans who want to smoke dope, 9/11 Truthers, Medicare recipients in denial, gold hoarders and isolationists.

You mean the candidates might actually talk about issues instead of just mouthing stupid sound bites?  That would be unique.

All this is
irrelevant the best endorsement Ron can have is the Corporate Media ignoring
him.

Ron for
President. Get it over Corporate Media

I am a supporter and I do not like … That !!!

But again you may be right. I do not want our childrem going to endless oil and opium wars.

You may be right !!!  May be .. May be it is the other way around !!!

Ron Paul is the only candidate who has a brain and is not afraid to use it.  I don’t always agree with him but he talks intelligently as opposed to all the other candidates who just spout out meaningless sound bites and follow the script.  He actually seems to be a good honest guy and not some slick government/corporate huckster like the others.

The mainstream media ignore him because he is not owned by the same corporations that own the media and the other candidates.  By trying to marginalize Dr. Paul they are just marginalizing themselves with the voters who are finally starting to see their true colors.

I haven’t voted for a Republican in over 20 years but Ron Paul is the only candidate I would consider voting for.

Today, Mediaite runs a gushing article, praising Jon Stewart for saying “F–k that guy”

Today Mediaite runs a hit piece, attacking Rick Perry for saying “treat him pretty ugly.”

Double standard?  You be the judge.

http://www.mediaite.com/online/rick-perry-would-treat-ben-bernanke-pretty-ugly-for-printing-more-money-to-play-politics/

It is down to it, nationman. This country is doomed unless someone who cares more about its people than its corporations gets elected.  

I’m thinking no one understands the implications of this. If the MSM will go to these lengths to bury Ron-do you HONESTLY think that any party can trust the voting machine software?

If Ron suddenly gets “sick” you’ll fully understand how important it is for America to be paying full attention.
 

Actually, he’s not a career politician.  He has been a doctor (OB/GYN) for more than forty years, much longer than the time he has been in office.

Fine that Stewart is acting some sort of an advocate to Paul, however Stewart is perhaps blowing in direction what the good folks in America want to hear.  Something about him I don’t trust, his on-air antics/behavior, his brother is a big guy on Wall Street, or as he ages is resembling Chuckie-Cheese Schumer. 

 Fox is definitely MSM if you look at their ratings on cable.

Definte politician . . . 

 Excuse me . . . I meant that to say DEFINE politician!

First of all, Paul lost to Bachmann by less than 0.1%.  Considering the strong Christian-right representation among Iowa voters, which is obviously where Bachmann’s strongest support comes from, I’d say Paul did pretty well.  Especially considering the total lack of media attention given to him.
 
Secondly, to call Paul a career politician is misleading and quite ignorant.  Sure he’s been in congress for a very long time, but the fact that he’s been there for so long without EVER selling out only proves how much integrity the man has.  Lobbyists won’t even go to his office because they know he won’t cave to special interests.  I don’t know about you but this is the type of person I want to represent the people of this country.

Isn’t it cute?  Little Jon can say the “F” word.  It’s the only way he can get his braindead audience to laugh.

You appear CLUELESS when you post without watching the segment

you need to read more about Ron Paul- he’s nuttier than a fruit cake- why do you think he’s being ignored?

Spread this page like wild fire.  The internet is much stronger than the MSM.

That’s weird because somebody claiming to be Ron Paul, who looks exactly like him, is talking to Megyn Kelly right now.

What do you FOX BOTS think of the COLD SHOULDER Fox gives Paul?

THE REAL TEA BAGGER VERSUS THE CORPORATE TEA BAGGERS

HIIIIILLLLLARIOUS!!!!!!!!

Way to comment on the substance.

The media is making the news, not reporting it.  I don’t agree with a lot of what Ron Paul stands for, but he is a legitimate candidate and should be treated fairly.

So true. I’m so sick of the corporate media telling us over and over who is “electable”. What this is all about is brainwashing the great mass of the uninformed. The people vote, not the MSM

you better google “ron paul positions”  before you get too wound up on the weirdo. Unfortunately he has reproduced- when the old fart dies he already has a replacement just as weird. He actually named his son Rand after Ayn Rand- but later when he found out that wasn’t her real name he denied he named Rand after her- No? So is he named after the atlas?

Hey fairtv,
1. Get gun
2. Put it in your mouth
3. Pull the trigger

Why is it that “SMALL MINDS” always use “SMALL WORDS”?

where are you reading about him? His website is RonPaul2012.com   If you are getting your info about him from the main stream media, you’re getting twisted info.

Yes, thank you Narcosys1 good points. Why does it take John Stewart to bring up what the rest of us are thinking? I watched Fox News a little and CNN and neither of them even mentioned Ron Paul coming in an extremely close 2cd to Michelle Bachman. WTF? There has to be a reason the media is ignoring him.

By the time Ron Paul makes president, he will be so bought off and paid for you won’t see an ounce of what he stood for for the many years he was needed as a president. People are holding on for what already left the train station. For all the starch Ron P supporters, the day has passed. Ron Paul is curbing his words, watching his ass, and not standing on truth as he once did. If he ever indeed makes it to be president, he would not be the Ron Paul that was money bombed for in the past. The system made sure of that and put our superior leaders in place as they always have. While he rants and raves in the proper motion,  Ron Paul has done little to get the job done in Congress, even though his votes were honorable to those that understand what really needs done.

Throw them all out. Start all over. And enough with the name Sarah Palin. That is one over used and simple abomination of a joke.

I say let’s see Ron Paul do something with the job he already has. So far, good votes Ron, but you have a long way to go to turn it upside down. What was good is now bad, what was bad is now good. There is no middle.

Yes. I see that you point to the story explaining why Dr. Paul is strongly against abortion. I don’t have any problem with that as a liberal because Dr. Paul would not demand that abortion be banned by a law or a constitutional amendment. He recognizes that all evils in the world cannot be be eliminated by laws.
You can be sure that it wasn’t the laws of the states that prevented abortions as much as it was the social stigma of getting an abortion prior to Roe v. Wade. At least some of that stigma remains.
Also prior to Roe v. Wade, the abortion stories usually featured a very young woman dying because of a botched illegal abortion. There were other stories of women going to foreign countries to have an abortion.
I am old enough to remember that, and the point remains that Dr. Paul knows the difference between personal responsibility and government responsibility.

Bachmann GAVE AWAY 6000 tickets to the event, Dr. Paul SOLD 4000  tickets yet it still ended in a statistical heat.  Not embarrassing in the least.

Some small minds use a thesaurus to hide behind.
The greatest quotes of the famous use the smallest words to make the biggest points.

I agree.
For some reason, conservatives are quick to use the word treason, or substitute it with the code word Marxist.

At least somebody notices Ron Paul!  I usually disagree with Jon Stewart on most things. But in in this we agree:  it is very interesting how virtually all the media tries to dismiss or simply ignore Ron Paul’s messages that include: small (not big) government, sound (not paper) money, peace (not warfare), self reliance (not welfare).  Why don’t the political pundits (both from the left & the right) like this?  He’s been saying the same things for about 35 years & if we had listened to him we wouldn’t be in the mess we now find ourselves in!  I think our Founding Fathers would have liked what he has to say!  Why shouldn’t we?

“By the time Ron Paul makes president, he will be so bought off and paid for you won’t see an ounce of what he stood for…”
Unkind & untrue words.  He has been consistent in his views for many years, out front on almost all the main issues of concern to us today & if he was being “bought off”, he would be running for re-election now to stay in power.  The problem is, the Lame-Stream media all want to ignore him.  The Power Elite (central bankers & industrialists) want him silenced especially because he is a threat to their main power base:  the corrupt Federal Reserve & their paper money Ponzi Scheme.  They really want to bankrupt America & thus help usher in a One World Order & One World Currency, so as to even further consolidate their power.

Typically hillbilly comment. I’m guessing you would like to continue spending trillions of dollars to bomb innocents in Iraq and Afghanistan? And hike taxes so we give away 99% of our income to support the welfare and nanny state?

This article about Rick Perry was written by the most conservative – tea party columnist in all of South Florida. So be careful what you wish for http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/08/15/2360707/rick-perry-king-of-corporate-welfare.html

Soooooo pleasurable to see the mainstream media get exposed in their constant censorship of the Good Doctor Paul, hugely thanxs to Jon Stewart for making me laugh soooooo much [and until then I was incredibly angry because of the censorship!] – Ron Paul 4 US President!

No.  Bachmann gave away 6,000 tickets that included a Randy Travis concert, who was flown in and you got in if you voted for Bachmann.  And she still didn’t even get 6,000 votes.  Complete fraud.

It’s probably the same clip as shown in the end of Stewart’s episode but yeah, it seems it was pulled from ‘tube. Who has that much clout I wonder…

Whether true or not, what does that have to DO with anything?

NOTHING.

You offer NO specifics as to why RP is “nuttier than a fruitcake” – just offer the gross generality itself, then bring up a lame story about his kid’s name.

What, do you have a vested interest in some other candidate? (Rhetorical question.)

That was good.
I believe this is Ron Paul’s best and only chance to become POTUS.

If you want to see an end to corporatism, socialism, big intrusive government, American imperialism and warmongering. Vote for Ron Paul!

If you want to see the rebirth of true capitalism ( austrian economics), maximum personal and economic freedom, peace and prosperity. Vote for Ron Paul!

Looking forward to vote Ron Paul in 2012!

It looks like I might have to right in Ron Paul’s name if he doesn’t get the nomination.

Your screen name is “The Real Royal Emperor” and you have the audacity to say that “you all come off as a bunch of nuts.”  Have you ever thought about getting some professional help?

 What you see happening in America today has happened time and again throughout history.  Once any group gets control of the currency, it is only a matter of time before the currency is devalued and nation is financially devastated.  We are seeing the currency of the US devalued and our credit rating has already suffered.  It is all part of a larger plan to destroy the sovereignty of the US.  The globalist bankers and money changers are serious about a new world order and a one world government.  Under the new system you will be stripped of all of your Constitutional rights and any rights you do have will be subservient to the “collective.”  Any and all means will be utilized to hold on to power by those that in fact control our government from behind the scenes.  You don’t have the luxury of daydreaming and telling yourselves everything is going to be alright.  It isn’t. Do you actually think that the US could have gone down hill so fast on its own?  We had the best minds, best scientists, best infrastructure the best of everything and yet we are on the edge of economic disaster.  It is a part of the plan to destroy America.  It has been 100 years in the making.  America’s demise was planned on Jekyl Island in 1913 and you are seeing those plans come to fruition. 
Thomas Jefferson was concise in his
early warning to the American nation, “If the American people
ever allow private banks to control the issuance of their currency,
first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations
that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all their
property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent
their fathers conquered.”

You right; I’ll write.

It’s not a lame story- the old man lied about screwing up on the kid’s name- if he’d lie about something that insignificant he’d lie about everything.

you’re another fruitcake if you go to HIS website to find out about him- go to google- ron paul positions-
Going to his site is as dumb as going to Fox for accurate news.

I’m not sure what you mean by,  ”…he felt the need to pander to the Evangelical wing in Iowa over social issues…”  I know Ron Paul has been pro-life for a long time, but as a former Libertarian, I suspect he has quite a bit of difference with some of the “Evangelicals”.

He’s being ignored because he’d cause the Jews main money-maker, the Federal Reserve, a PRIVATE, UNAUDITED BANK, to cease bailing out their co-ethnics time and time again. Can you say Lehman Brothers, etc.?

God, the stupidity of Americans amazes me.

Oh wait. Adler. Never mind. One of the Tribe. Who hates with an everlasting hatred? [Gen. 3:15] Nothing to see here, move along. 

Paul didn’t ‘lose’. Bachman is not a politician, she’s a WOMAN. As in ‘Palin stand-in.’ As in ‘emoting and compassion.’ Crap. That sort of ‘touchy-feely’ (even though Bachman has more b*lls that most of the other candidates (They’re still mentioning Romney, for God’s sake?), in a contest, BO would cream Sarah #2. As Pawlenty said (thereby damning his chances, because you just can’t criticize a woman… oh, sniff!) she has no EXPERIENCE, other than voting for her district in MN. Trouble is, I like her stances on a lot of issues, but I’d rather go with a Man, than a woman anyday. Probably because Patriarchal rule is biblical, and the only woman in Scripture ruling over a multiculti land, was named Jezebel…..

Wow such amazing logic there.  (sarcasm)

 They sometimes interview him sure, and it mainly consists of them making him defend his positions, but they never talk about him as though he is a viable candidate ….which he is. 

you’re an idiot. no one agrees with you. 

The crazy ignored guy seems to be the only one that is honest, sincere, and right on the important issues.  What planet does the mainstream media live on?  How is being fiscally responsible and anit-war make you “unelectable”.  It doesn’t make any sense!

You ought to vote Paul because he is the only anti war, pro America, intelligent, human, decent, and most of all HONEST candidate there is.  ;)

Go google that Bachmann bought 4000 tickets from her campaign money to put her people in place.

I’d vote for him too. I know many don’t like his tax opinions, but so what? He’d never get them through congress, especially not now. He’d use his veto against tax increases, but does anyone think there’d be any tax increases anyway? Democrats should vote for this man, for the unique things he would do, and after that go back to elect someone to push through their economic program. When the shock of the things Ron Paul will have exposed has changed politics forever. Consider this:

Obama flat-out lied when he said he’d end the wars: “you can take that to the bank!” By contrast, Ron Paul if elected would do ENORMOUS damage to the War Party (the GOP/Democrat leadership and AIPAC, the three pillars in Washington) by ending the wars against Israel’s enemies, stop picking new fights, closing U.S. bases all over the world (Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Iraq, Japan, Germany – WWII is over you know), expose and close CIA prisons across the globe, expose things we don’t even know about now, stop using the US veto in the UN as Israel’s veto, and of course, AUDIT THE FED. He’d put a new chairman in the Fed and find out who they gave all that Bank Aid money too. (My guess: the majority of it went to Goldman & Sachs. Obama got more funding from the big banks than any other candidate, Democrat or Republican.)

This is what the media and political elite desperately wants to avoid. They know that a lot of what he’d do couldn’t be undone. He’d expose far too much. He’d do what Obama SAID he would do, when that puppet lied in his campaign. Ron Paul has a consistent record for year after year of voting against wars and all foreign intervention.

Don’t like his economic program? Don’t worry, the congress won’t pass it anyway. Elect him for four years of the most enormous political change the world has seen since the end of the Cold War. Then go back to talking economics. By the way, by then Paul will have ended the costly wars in the Middle East.

Or he would be shot by the CIA before he could do any of this. But at least give him a chance.

Obama is a lame duck. He has handed this country over to the bankers without a fight or  pang of conscience, and the public is no longer fooled by his speeches. A republican will be president in 2012. Democrats consider registering as a republican and vote in the primaries. Do you want Romney, Bachman, Perry for president? Or Ron Paul? On foreign policy, ending corporate hand-outs, and civil liberties he is far more ‘progressive’ than Obama. Regardless who you vote for, please do some research on all the candidates and think for yourself.

Thank You Mr Stewart.

Ron Paul is a Quite Achiever and will romp home to win after last minute gaffs by other candidates and as the rest of the field run out of money and drop out.  If you research his policies he is the only one who has identified the real problems THE U.N. and THE MONEY SYSTEM.

I get it, Dems where blue ties and Reps where red ties. During the Presidential Debates, each side says America is great but I can make it better. Oh dont forget about that “simple person” now to “big shot” story to relate to all of us also. Its Reality TV at its finest. As American WE have the choice to vote for whoever. Its not a football bracket. I always hear the saying “lesser of the 2 evils”….A democrat can help big buisness hire workers through a tax break and they are helping people……But on the same token if he does that somebody can flop the story and say he gave a tax break that helps big buisness also…Cmon people WAKE UP!  Take away the same old vague answers and hit me with facts. Ron Paul has done this consistently over his career and during his campain. Its tough right now all around. WE, and both parties got us into this mess. Why not a third party? If you dont like Coke or Pepsi what would you do? Ron Paul 2012

ahahaha

ahahaha

Fr. John…I don’t know how I personally feel on Ron Paul, but the things you’re saying are pretty terrible. I don’t suppose a comment or debate on the internet is going to change your mind, and I’m not really looking to debate you here for that very reason, but the things you’re suggesting in your comments have no basis in reality. They really don’t. You seem to have something against Jews. I don’t really know what’s up with that, or why you think the places you’re getting your information on them are trustworthy by any standard. I can tell you for certain that the kind of religious conspiracy you seem to be alluding to doesn’t exist, but I doubt you’d believe me. I’m certain that by your standards, at best, I probably look like a sheep of some sort and you pity my ignorance or some such thing, just as I’m sure you can guess by my standards you know I feel sorry for you for having met people that have led you to this kind of worldview. I hope you find your way out of it someday. I really do. There’s little healthy there, and a level of confirmation bias beyond all reasonable standards.

I am truly sorry if I sound a bit patronizing. I’ve just come across way too many comments like this online, and I know how these conversations monotonously tend to play out. That’s also part of the reason I’d rather not debate you. You’ll deny being an anti-semite, and post links to some websites that make claims that I could debunk in five minutes on snopes or some other fact checking site. You’ll claim I’ve been getting my info from tainted/biased organizations, and provide me with a list of Jews that work there, as proof of their supposed ’infiltration.’ I’ll try to explain how citing something like that as evidence of a conspiracy only actually works as evidence if I buy your assertion that there is a conspiracy in the first place, and how that is basically the definition of circular logic. You’ll tell me to ‘wake up,’ I’ll tell you I already am ‘awake’…yadda, yadda, yadda. You can pretty much imagine the rest.

I guess the only reason I’m commenting here is because the amount of people that clicked the like button on your comment terrifies me, but I really do hope you realize where you are right now and the kind of person you’re being. I hope you find someone that changes your mind on these things. I hope you do someday, and I hope you can climb away from that place. You can respond if you want, but, like I said, I can pretty much guess how it would go. I’m sure you probably could too.

Ill leave this here.

you’re another fruitcake if you go to HIS website to find out about him- go to google- ron paul positions-
Going to his site is as dumb as going to Fox for accurate news.— adler56Thanks adler56!  I just googled ron paul positions and was impressed with what I learned!  He’ll get my vote for sure now!  Thanks for the tip buddy!

Thanks adler56!  I just googled ron paul positions and was impressed with what I learned!  He’ll get my vote for sure now!  Thanks for the tip buddy!

“Crack” is an insidious drug.

WTF? When did THAT matter? Sara Palin was the vice-president candidate! G.W. WAS President… and both complete wack-jobs!

From what I’ve read in these comments, I think you people need to do some serious research on Libertarians. Jon Stewart is not a Libertarian, by the way, he just found some good comedy in that situation.

adler56- He’s being ignored because his intentions as President would be to benefit the average joes working people in this country rather than large corporations in which the government is in bed with. He would make this country a safer place and bring back the true idea of liberty and what our country was founded on.

Right Americans are stupid- especially one who thinks Lehman Brothers was the only Jewish financial group – Goldman Sachs isn’t exactly white bread.

But Bill O’Reilly, there’s someone you trust!

Most Libertarians need to do some serious research on Libertarians.

OK just read RP’s positions.  He is definitely a Libertarian.  I suppose Jesus Christ himself would get along great with this guy.  So why shouldn’t I vote for him again?  Because he named his son Rand after Ayn Rand?  Well, I think as a Libertarian myself, I could care less what anyone names their kids.  Should I stop listening to Guns and Roses because they have names like Axl, Slash, and Duff?  

Hmmmmm……..I will think heavily on this….oh wait….I know! 

Unfortuantely I am not at liberty to disclose this information in fear that I may be called a conspiracy theorist.  The fact that the footage was pulled in no way was planned, it is probably just some simple mistake.  Yeah.  I feel better now.

you mean accurate news like, sayyyy, that we get from NBC?

http://blog.nixonfoundation.org/2006/02/nbc-apologizes-for-rn-jack-anderson-story/

Just like congress, the mainstream media is bought and paid for by the banksters, the industrial/military complex moguls, the Bilderbergers, etc.  They will say nothing that will cause the establishment candidates harm or to support candidates that might upset their apple carts.

If he doesn’t, I hope he runs third party.  I think he could steal enough votes from both sides to win.

You’re 100% wrong about Dr. Paul.  Unfortunately, it’s more likely that they’ll take him out as they did Kennedy since they know he can’t be bought.

NOT!!!!

Yes, he was and with absolute accuracy. FOX is only marginally better than the rest but only because they don’t have any real competition.

Not all of us, my friend.  I’ve got more votes behind me than in front.

You mean like last time when the idiots picked (ineligible) McCain?  Yeah, right.  If we’d had a decent (read eligible) candidate, Obummer would have been eliminated early and we wouldn’t be in this pickle.

The only upside to this is that mainstream media is becoming increasingly irrelevant as social media begin to dominate – especially with younger voters (my generation needs to go )

You did?  HAHAHAHAHAHAHaHaHahahahahah.  Oh, hurts it does.

Very perceptive, Staci!

Nor are TEA partiers against Ron Paul.  I think you’ll see LOTS of TEA Party support as time goes on.

His full name is Randal. Sorry you don’t like his nickname…would you prefer “Randy?”

Thanks for the information Amy. He did use Randy growing up- his wife changed it to Rand- so i should blame her not his father.

So where exactly does that leave your argument that RP is a lunatic because he named his son after Ayn Rand?

If Ron Paul wins, its a global win not just a win for the US. He may rock the markets a bit when he pimp slaps the Fed, but intimately all will stabilize. Unfortunately much of the masses obsess in “more of the same” so they tend to lean towards the Perrys and Bachmanns.  They crave and embrace it and roll around in it like pigs in mud. They fear change so settle for slavery since it means they are still alive. Well folks, there is much more to life than just having a pulse. I’m an ex-pat living in Australia so I know what its like to live under a controlling socialist regime. Both US and AUS governments are about BIG government and control. They are about taxing and social programs designed to build dependency on government.

Nope. 

Sgore: good for you for at least trying. The number of people who liked the comments frightens me too.

Thanks adler56!  I just googled ron paul positions and was impressed with what I learned!  He’ll get my vote for sure now!  Thanks for the tip buddy!

Let me say: I used to have 3 packs of those illumin cards.. and Perry looks JUST LIKE one of those politicians pictured in those cards. He did go to bildrbrger anyway, I think.

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink.  Ignorant Americans will bring us to 3rd world status in a hurry.

I, for one, am voting for Ron Paul to make sure that won’t happen.

donald trump did start that whole birth certificate crap with obama =. talk about wasting a president’s time going through his sock draws 

I think Ron Paul doesn’t get a lot of attention is because the media has a strong bias for the Democratic Party agenda and of all the GOP candidates that can pull votes away from Obama is Ron Paul. Frankly, if you are a staunch Democratic Party must will at all costs person, rather than a democrat will will gladly be a Blue Republican for the right candidate, then Ron Paul is your worst nightmare. There isn’t any other candidate besides Ron Paul that can crush Obama on all the important issues of the day. If the GOP has enough vision and foresight they will realize Ron Paul is a blessing to what otherwise is a dying party of neo-cons that in due time will be exposed as the faction that put the nails in our great republic’s coffin. 

Thanks for doing the bit on Ron Paul. Keep it coming! RON PAUL! 2012

Compare it to this statement:

“he’d cause the Sicilians to lose their lucrative racketeering and smuggling operations.”

Now, that sentence clearly refers to the Cosa Nostra Mafia, a group composed primarily of Sicilians, rather than to Sicilians in general.

It’s all about the context.

Similarly, the quote above seems likely referring to a small but incredibly powerful cabal that is based in Israel, but also has significant presence in NYC, London, and elsewhere. Saying they are beyond criticism because to do so would be racist or anti-semitic is absurd, but all too common.

P.S. It’s not really related, but in 1933 Stalin murdered roughly as many Ukranians as Hitler did Jews in the 40s – and arguably did so much more cruelly. Why is the latter crime taught as a modern mythology to all children in our society, as the absolute nadir of human barbarity, while the former is completely forgotten, unknown to the vast majority of the world? I’ve got no answer to this question, just something to chew over.

His name is Randall. There is no connection.

Huh, and what else has he lied about in his 24 years in office? 

Less, I would wager, than the average politico lies about on any given day.

Shit, anyone with a bit of common sense has been boycotting them already.

Adler, own up to it, you old Jewish darlings fear Ron Paul because he just might actually do in office what he promises during the campaign. Your folks have done pretty well in America and now that she is almost busted, Ron Paul is promising to return her to the constitution;  that means, ‘No more foreign entanglements’ (read jettisoning Israel) and returning her people to sound money.

In case you don’t understand what sound money is here is a hint: It isn’t a promissory note called a ‘Federal Reserve Note’ which is issued by the Fed at a rate of interest charged to the American citizenry, it will be issued by the American State at zero cost to state and most likely backed by Gold and Silver. If you have read so far you will see these are the two issues which I’m inclined to think will cause your Jewish friends many sleepless nights.

Rand is a boy’s name that is old german in origin. It means “shield”. It’s also used as the short form of Randolph. Is Ayn Rand the only person you’ve ever heard of with a “Rand” in their name you fucking idiot?

“I’d vote for a monkey against what we have, now.”

THAT’S RACIST!!!

“I’d vote for a monkey against what we have, now.”

THAT’S RACIST!!!

You keep used condoms!  I bet you keep ‘em in your left pocket.

“TMP”

How’s that racist?

“TMP”

Don’t forget Obama’s new war, Libya. 10 million a week!

“TMP”

Ron Paul is a devout Christian, whereas Ayn Rand was a devout atheist. I doubt he would name his son (Randolph) after her.

Fr. John, judging from your “Jews main money-maker” comment, the “Fr.” prefix must stand for Fucking Retard.

It is required, and you should.  That’s what I’m doing.  This needs to be a movement of the people, and every little bit counts.

Politics is in the air with the coming 2012 elections. Leaders are very much preparing for that occasion. There is tough competition between parties like Democrats and Republicans.
Strathclyde Associates

Why care about Jon Stewart scolding media for ignoring Rep. Ron Paul. Is he an ally? There should be no biases; you should be fair and leave the judgment to the people of America.

Strathclyde Associates

I think his foreign policy ideas are unrealistic.  I do like most of his ideas on the domestic side, though.  The one thing that REALLY bugs me about him is … why do all the anti-Semite wackos love him so much?  

Sorry, forgot to add a “zieg heil” after that…

If it comes down to it? lemme ask you what is holding you back from saying he is your deffinate choice? Ron Paul is the best Candidate for the presidency in the last 22 years if not longer! His consistency and honesty in congress should speak for itself. And here you are saying hmmm i might vote for him… if it comes down to it. Everyone should be agreeing with what Dr.Paul says because its first of all true and second of all it is CORRECT!

Our so called war in Libya: Military intervention sanctioned by the UN that was a joint effort with countries including by not limited to Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Canada, the USA, etc. AKA NOT illegal and NOT war to stop Gaddafi from killing his own people. 

I don’t trust Paul. I don’t trust a man who claims to be about the constitution but then wants to rip apart the 14th amendment to his liking. Yes, I like how he is against the war on drugs, but this election is not about rights, it’s about money. I also don’t understand, as a Left Libertarian, how this man, who also claims to be Libertarian, can put financial rights over civil rights. Apparently he would have voted against the expulsion of Jim Crowe laws to protect property rights. He wants to get rid of amnesty laws when these people contribute billions and ARE Americans. Did he ever learn that you can’t have your cake and eat it too? Yes, the United States has stuck its nose where it doesn’t belong but because of our foreign policy, the US can intervene in civil warring countries like Libya with UN sanctions. Does Paul support Gaddafi killing his own people just because they aren’t American? Or should we not help Americans stranded over there because they are outside our borders? In that case, he doesn’t understand reciprocation and realpolitik, which scares me if he really wants to become President. He wants a free market yet it was the lack of regulation that got us into the housing crisis. How did the free market help us then by giving people ridiculously low interest rates on houses they couldn’t afford? Sure, capitalism can renew itself, but not in the ‘just for Americans’ sense. How can those fools (candidates) honestly expect the US to grow at 5% (a productive year is 3%) a year, every year? In a world of finite resources that’s impossible! Sure, capitalism can renew itself, but that’s happening in China. A free market is not gonna bring jobs home when there is cheap labor abroad. Even if those manufacturing jobs came to the US, they would have to abide by wage laws, which even if corporate taxes dramatically dropped, is still too expensive for companies when outsourcing is cheaper.

Can someone please point out what is so good about Paul? Because I can’t seem to find anything…

Hide yourself little man.  It wasn’t sanctioned by Congress. If it wasn’t to stop Qaddafi from killing his own people then Obama lied because that’s how he justified it.

Stay stupid and hide your identity, weenie.
