MSNBC refuses to talk about Ron Paul.. I wonder why?

I have the unfortunate situation of posessing a crap cable package with only one "news" network - MSNBC. As a result, I have digested about 24 hours or so of MSNBC coverage in the last few months.

I'm curious as to why (in between battering Newt and Romney) they absolutely refuse to even mention Ron Paul's name. I have heard them discuss Jon Huntsman, Rick Santorum, Perry, Cain, hell even Buddy Roemer multiple times! Not a single anchor, in the dozens of hours of Republican candidate discussion has even whispered Paul's name.

It would be hard to claim that Ron Paul isn't in 3rd place right now after the Cain and Perry collapses. How and why would you completely ignore the 3rd. place candidate? Could it be that the left would rather face an adulterous lobbyist or a serial liar than an anti-war economic specialist with integrity?

You're right though all you third-grade educated neo-con zombies, if we want to beat Obama we absolutely can't elect Paul! Geez, what was I thinking?



PS: I do know that Ratigan and Morning Joe have touted Paul in the past, but that is far from the norm.

 

I watch both Fox and MNBC.Toggle back n forth..just for comparison.
Rest assured ..Fox hasn't mentioned Paul either.

But it could be worse..MNBC ran a 3 minute 1994 Kennedy ad blasting Romney for closing a paper plant in Indiana.
The ad said it was ROMNEY that made a deliberate decision to throw people out of a job without health insurance.
While Romney was the Boss..was it a deliberate decision or a company takeover supported by investors? ( OTHER PEOPLES MONEY .. throw the best buggy whip company into Bankruptcy and rebuild as a
profitable enterprise ? ) Did the unions ever agree to give back and make that paper company profitable ?

..and the last closing line ..with a woman whining.." I just hope that the people of Mass. dont elect someone who will send their jobs overseas and force them to have no health care"

SCARE TACTICS BY KENNEDY..that worked.. but in reality Romney kept that states employment under 5% and created Universal Health care...
and balanced a budget that was mired in debt without raising taxes..

Romney killed failing business models and started and kept real business models that worked profitable.
Unions and liberal democrats killed more businesses and sent them over seas. Quietly and without bold commercials..
By supporting higher wages than others pay and higher taxes.
SEE GM.SOLAR energy..wind..

At least Paul doesn't face an all out concerted Murdoch FOX team bent to defeat him. I would just as well wish Romney got the Paul treatment.

 

He's in single digits and always will be because he's a foreign policy nutcase. He's pissed we killed OBL. Heck he's even pissed we rescued the jews in WWII. He's a flipflopper on Reagan, a flipflopper on Iran. He allowed his newsletter to be taken over by an open racist and anti-semite. He allows his articles to be carried by racist websites, and has never renounced them for it, or ask them to take them off. He's a career politician who's never accomplished anything. And he's boring to boot.

Honestly, why would anyone want to have him on?

 

Ron Paul would endanger our country he is anti military I don't know about you but I like my freedom and would like to keep it. So support Paul if you wan't to be speaking Muslim some day.

 

Sigh. He is not pissed that we killed OBL nor with WWII. If you really believe that, you have no business discussing politics with anyone. He does, however, think that it would have been an intelligent move to capture OBL and extract information from him. I guess you are more focused on revenge and bloodshed rather than intelligence and the future of our country.

Lol WHAT? You must be joking. He supports INCREASING our national defense budget. He is not anti-military, he is anti-interventionism. He supports a strong national defense but he does not support the invasion of countries that might one day have a nuke, even if those countries hate us. A strong national defense does not equate to eliminating any one that might become a threat.

And if you really think that Iran is a threat, you are a blind ignorant coward. Your fear them so you must destroy them. Please explain to me how Iran would be able to hurt us with a nuke when they have no means of deploying it here? Explain to me why they would even attempt such an act that would mean the end of the existence of their country? Then again they might try to use it since the warmongering neo-cons seem so set on destroying them anyway, why not use it?

 

I think MSNBC read my post here about how Ron Paul is dead meat in the republican primary, so naturally they decided to drop all conversation of an eventual loser by attacking the two front runners.

 

Behold!

 

The only way that is possible is if they mistakenly believed that you're a Ron Paul supporter.

You didn't really make any valid points in that thread btw, just gave some opinions.

By all means!

 

Flip flopper on Reagan? Flip flopper on Iran? He consistently supported Ronald Reagan's original platform. He doesn't waste time mindlessly backing parties or individuals, he supports principles.

Boring? Fair enough, when I was a kid I had to go 3 hour Ukrainian Catholic masses. They were in Ukrainian. I didn't speak Ukrainian. I guess that is how it must feel for you when someone makes real arguments and talks about economics and not just blowing up brown people.

 

Speaking Muslim one day? LOL. When? How? The United States has more weapons than the rest of the world combined and we live on a different continent. Explain yourself!

 

It would be easy for me to consider voting for someone other that Ron Paul if any of the arguments that I see on here against him were actually true. But since I have taken the time to listen to him (versus the media), I am burdened with the truth. Oh well, they do make for some funny reading anyway!

 

The Iranians hate the west they despise us and want to institute seria law they want to gain weapons of mass destruction to kill us all.

 

Maybe it's because the West setup a coup in the 1950s which led to thousands of dead, an elected government overthrown and a brutal Dictator left in power. Or it's because some idiot on the Idiot Tube said they hate us because we're free... Yes lets trust their nonfactual and weak historical views as to why the World is what it is.

 

Do you believe that all 80,000,000 million people in Iran want to die? Do you believe that the entire fundamentalist, Musllim leadership of Iran is willing to destroy their country and give their lives in the name of Allah?

If they ever even considered action against Israel or any other free country they would be erased in seconds. They have absolutely no chance of instituting Sharia law anywhere. Period. They know this, and know they would be giving up all of their power and their state if their ambition even began to spill over their borders.

To think that Iran poses a threat when essentially the entire world is against them is to believe that the entire country doesn't have a thread of self-preservation within them.

 

Ron Paul is anti-military? That must be why he is a veteran and receives the most donations from the military.

 

I guess the military is anti-military, since the military supports Paul.

When are "we" going to war against Tuvalu? Gotsa keep 'Merka safe, ya know.

Another example of the astuteness of the American voting public.

 

Speaking Muslim????

 

Because they are part of the corporate media establishment, and Paul is not bought and paid for by interests aligned with that establishment, in the same way all the other Republican candidates are.

 

That is a good point, I wouldn't want to be speaking Muslim no time soon!!

 

They want to institute seria law?!?!?!? Those bastards!!


PS. Does that have anything to do with Tom Cruise's daughter, or that new thing on the Iphone that is voice activated? Wait that is it, the Islams want to institute a law that everyone has to have a talking ap on their phones!! Those diabolical bastards!!

 

I really doubt he gets any money from military people they would support someone that supports our troops. They want to make our world a better place and are iching to spread freedom in to Iran. We all have to get our patriotic spirit back and support our troops.

 

You can doubt it all you want. Look it up.

"Supporting the troops" is not sending them off the hell holes to die that serve no purpose.

 

There is no way your posts are sincere!! You have to be a liberal mocking conservatives.

 

Hopefully anyways...

 

Your the one in need of a reality check. I was in the military. And what we hate most is play time, time spent training and not actually doing anything productive. We wanted a war so we could be put to use at what we did best, waging war. It made us useful. I hated going around daily picking up cigarette butts, scrubbing rust off of generators etc, when I was a radio man I wanted to do my duty providing communications not janitorial duty. We didn't join up to play war, we joined up to actually wage war.
