I've gotta give Colbert the benefit of the doubt here. The WGA strike does put a lot of pressure on the show hosts, who are used to a team of writers who are well-seasoned in crafting current political humor. Nowadays, if they aren't just winging it entirely, these bits are being slapped...

In the local section of the paper today there's a large picture of some of the Volusia County Meet-up members doing a sign wave, and another photo of the blimp. Although the sign-wave photo shows very few people, I don't think that was meant to belittle them, as it was an impromptu wave. (Here...

Honestly, I think Dr. Paul was pretty well aware that he'd get very little time to speak, so he made his answers count. I thought the question to McCain was brilliant, as it exposed a "frontrunner" as being clueless. While some may be concerned that the question flew over the heads of...

Including the Daily Roundup Blogger? That was the initial post that got me thinking and looking more into the sentiments of others here on that particular issue that made me decide to put my two cents in here. Trolls, I understand they come here. But to be fair, I have heard from other people...

Looking through this forum, I'm seeing a lot of negativity, not only on the part of what the mainstream media is doing, but people here who supported Dr. Paul in the past now rethinking their support based on something that happened years ago (that most people can at least say they didn't think...

I think more people have at least dabbled in drugs than just the usual suspects. Think about it - Bill Clinton, Bush Jr., and even Obama have openly admitted to using drugs. To be honest, I'm hard-pressed to come up with a list of more than three people (over age 20) that I've known personally...

Gun owner rights may be important. Unless it changed when I wasn't looking, Florida has a "make my day" law in regards to protecting life and property. I'd be careful about going anti-abortion. I generally tell people that while Dr. Paul himself is pro-life, his thoughts in regards to policy...

Are we still trusting "polls"? Come on... given the right spin in the question and the right target group, you can get 56% of the "public" to denounce Jesus Christ.

One of our Meetups in the Daytona Beach area had a meeting tonight, part of which involved coming up with some target groups who would be very interested in what Dr. Paul's ideas are. Florida seems like such a tricky demographic because it is quite diverse from coast to coast. So please feel...

Well, it was a nice thought that it would happen over the course of a year... but I read you loud and clear! For my part, I've been trying to direct people to open their eyes and witness all the biased and spinning from the Gods of the Almighty Television. Even if someone is adamantly against...

Personally, I have been a professional recluse for about ten years now. Seriously... I work from home and generally only see the light of day when I absolutely have to go out to the store. Ever since I started getting involved with this revolution, I joke that Dr. Paul cured my agoraphobia...

F-ing CNN is playing the "Let's exclude Ron Paul from the pie chart" game again. Dem pie shows Richardson's small slice, GOP pie stops short at the ghoul's take. I really want to see how they illustrate the pie if Dr. Paul goes third or higher!

I understand your position, but I don't think its the only way. As it stands, we can spend a lot of effort pressuring people to boycott FOX and possibly turning a lot of people off in the process, or we can push extra-hard to get Ron Paul's votes up and to the top of as many primaries as...

I hope that you don't think me a troll, but I'm going to play devil's advocate here for a moment in regards to advertisers and users of services owned by FOX (such as Myspace, etc...) Before you begin pelting stones at people who explain that while they support Dr. Paul they cannot stop using...

My whole family sat down to watch the debate. After Giuliani's first little speech on fighting Islamic terrorists, we all poured ourselves a drink and settled in for a long night. What we were paying attention to wasn't Dr. Paul. We know exactly where he stands on the issues. But we were...
