I cannot stand Joy Behar. If people don't like/agree with her uber liberal politics she proceeds to put them down.

I saw her do it one too many times and vowed to never watch again.

I'm glad you enjoyed it though. What did Joy have to say to him?

Honestly they were pretty good to him. They obviously tried getting him to engage in the left/right nonsense, but he really wouldn't entertain it. That's what makes him so effective, he doesn't go down that road. Getting into personal disagreements is seldom useful, and he obviously understands this. Once he refuses to engage in that portion of the discussion, they often have to drop it. He points everything back to the Constitution, therefore bypassing personal ideology.

He handled them rather well.

The truth always sets you free.
He didn't beat around the bush. Joy and Woopie respected that, you could tell.

Amazing that the major news outlets will put Sarah Palin and Donald Trump everywhere....but not a real intellectual like Ron Paul.

He's absolutely right about everything. When a liberal celebrity says something as ludicrous as "But HOW do we get out of the wars?" he makes the common-sense reply "The same way we got into them--we marched right in, so let's turn around and march right out again!" It's like a wise elder talking to a 5-year-old. Nothing is keeping us at war except the obedience of "our" elected officials to their owners/masters, the ultra-rich who profit from the military-industrial complex that is bankrupting our nation and diverting tax money from the "needy" to the filthy rich.

As to Planned Parenthood, considering how little taxpayer money actually goes to abortions for poor women, it really isn't a big deal to separate that agency and a million other charities from taxpayer support. If government limited itself to the things it actually should be doing, all working taxpayers would have more of their own earnings to distribute to the charities THEY support--instead of handing their earnings to a corrupt politician who then gains power from handing the money to HIS favorite charities.

Actually, whether you are a Republican or Democrat or Libertarian, you would be wise to support a Libertarian like Ron Paul. The changes he'll make will be the only way the system can survive even a little while longer. The Republicrat Party has made it more than clear that absolutely NOTHING will change in their behavior, so voting for either in 2012 will cause the collapse to happen as quickly as possible. If you are already in your defensible rural homestead, with food and water and arms and precious metals stockpiled, maybe you want it all to come crashing down ASAP. But that isn't most of us. And even if it is you, you can use a few more years to prepare, because it won't go down exactly as you expect.
