hmmm, wonder why that would be? Who are the "crony puppet masters at Fox" and why would they be very scared of him? Could you source and list the link? Thanks much.
He wants to take away all of their crony protections, put liability back on corporations and take away their corporate welfare. It doesn't take a genius to see that Fox would be very much against that.
Here are a couple links that show the deception. I watched the CPAC announcement live, then watched that interview, I though they just had a different mic or something, I could not believe they used an old video. (Well actually I could)
Ron Paul's philosophy is not consistent with the Tea Party, or the rim job Democrats, or the Republicans.
Ron is a Libertarian, quite different from the Tea Party.
And yes, we all know most of his goals would never be achieved. There are too many Americans who love the Big Government nanny state.
I am really curious what you think the Tea Party stands for. Since there is no one "leader" of the Tea Party, but many who claim it and have tried to co-opt it as someone stated earlier, I wonder where people get their information on what it is all about. Libertarians are for limited government and strict adherence to the constitution and personal liberty. Isn't the Tea Party for limited government, strict adherence to the constitution and personal liberty?
The Tea Party was born out of frustration with the Republican Party's lack of fiscal conservatism, true, but doesn't that go hand in hand with limited government, abiding by the Constitution and therefore means more personal freedom? Aren't there Democrats, Independents and Republicans who are sick and tired of the nanny state and have joined the Tea Party?
I agree there are too many people who are getting entitlements from the government to get rid of them, but we do not have a choice because we can no longer afford them, nor the military bases all over the world, nor wars, nor the size of government. (I do not include SS or Medicare as an "entitlement" because we paid for those benefits when FICA was taken out of each and every paycheck.)
The poll said:"They are better educated than most Americans: 37 percent are college graduates, compared to 25 percent of Americans overall. They also have a higher-than-average household income, with 56 percent making more than $50,000 per year."
Do people really think he could end public education, the federal reserve, and big government? Are people this naive? There is no way 95% of what Ron Paul says would ever happen.
Shhhhh....let them think that their pipe dream is possible.
They are middle class materialists who can't see beyond NASCAR.
