4/20/10 - Ron Paul to appear on Imus in the Morning

[Cowlesy]

Of course as soon as Dr. Paul was off the air, they started with the, "while I may not agree on everything with Dr. Paul..." bit. Why do all hosts feel the need to add that? Do they add that when they interview any other politicians? I think not.

Did Bernie get in on that? I can picture him saying something snide.

What, no "merry 420" wishes from Ron?

This P.C. shit is getting out of hand.

Drives me nuts, but I think there's a rational explanation for it.

The libertarian philosophy is more of a clusterfuck of the best parts of what each party thinks they stand for. Democrats think they stand for civil liberties, Republicans think they stand for free markets.

When you put individual liberties and free markets together you get libertarianism.

Now, when Ron Paul speaks to a partisan, they really only do agree with about 1/2 of what he's saying, maybe less. So, for someone who follows party lines (most of the media), they really only agree with some of what he says.

I don't know who that is. But the comments weren't "snide" overall they were respectful. They followed up the "not agreeing" statement with saying he is always has a reasoned and logical way of putting out and defending his position.
It definitely was not a bad/mean comment. It just bugs me that they always have to followup with that comment. I mean, are we supposed to assume they agree with everything other guests say?

That does seem to be the logical assumption to take. When they are "interviewing" a partisan, they agree 100% with what they are saying. I mean otherwise, they would followup with "while I don't agree with everything they said"
