Dick Morris and Bill O'reilly to discuss Ron Paul's media coverage tonight

Ha, ha, see how stupid they sound. Even o'reilly knew Morris was full of crap about the gold standard.
 
It could have been a lot worse.. Lady V3n and I were really wanting to hate the bit.. showing the graphic of the poll while leaving out Ron Paul raised the blood pressure, but honestly when Dick Morris was talking far beyond his meagerly understanding of the gold standard, it was BillO who reigned him back in and said he wasn't exactly being fair. I thought I heard BillO say the only reason Perry was rising was because he wasn't vetted.

Overall summary: not as bad as it could have been, not Paul friendly, but not really friendly toward any candidate - misleading? Yes, but what did you expect from BillO?

Replace "misleading" with "deceiving and lying", otherwise fair assessment.
 
It was not bad; much better than I would have thought.

They started by showing the Gallup poll (they could have showed the PPP in an attempt to marginalize RP).

Then that other guy looked like an idiot when he talked about the gold standard. Even billo was like wtf. And that made everything else he said look stupid.

Yes, it sucked that they didn't show the RB vs. Obama head to head. But all things considering not bad at all.

And remember, no press is bad press.
 
I didn't catch this one.. but it sounds like it was far less worse than everyone was thinking it was going to be. Good to hear.
 
Interesting, I almost got the feeling Bill O'Reilly was trying to defend Ron Paul's position on the gold standard. I guess that's how mainstream that view has become!
 
"This is good material for our YouTube wizards. Show oreilly and morris yucking it up and juxtapose that with facts."


This! ^^^^
Looking forward to it!

That's shameful that they edited the Rassmussen poll to omit that Paul was one point away from tying with Obama. Just shameful. How do they get away with stuff like that?
 
I need to stop picking on Dick Morris...it's just too easy. :)

Dear Mr. O'Reilly,

Like it not, Ron Paul is top tier and has as good of chance as anyone at getting the GOP nomination. In regards to your and Mr. Morris' opinions that Dr. Paul cannot beat Mr. Obama, polls show otherwise: Gallup & Rasmussen. Dick Morris simply doesn't like Ron Paul and you being the "No Spin Zone" should have disclosed that to your audience. March of this year Mr. Morris is quoted as saying "I strongly oppose Ron Paul, I think he is horrific."

Regards,

Dear Mr. O'Reilly,

On tonights show you and Dick Morris briefly discussed the Gold Standard. It was painfully clear that Mr. Morris hand't a clue as to what he was talking about. You did a disservice to your audience by allowing him to speak on subjects to which he is ignorant. I hope you spend some free-time researching the subject, Dr. Thomas Woods compiled a wonderful list of reading materials.

Regards,

Emailing those two won't do any good. I'd recommend emailing Jon Stewart more than anyone. The intellectual dishonesty in this piece is so blatant that Stewart wouldn't have any trouble at all making a fool out of the two of them (claiming Ron can't beat Obama and then omitting his head to head polling numbers in which he does better than everyone else).

For the people thinking Jon Stewart is someone that will help us: you need your head examined.
 
I'm so fucking mad right now. I don't think I've ever been this pissed about politics. Rasmussen polled Paul separately vs. Obama for a reason. PPP is excluding Paul form general election polling for a reason.. So Fox can flash that Paul-less graphic on the screen without being biased, just omitting Paul doing best against Obama. There has to be some behind the scenes sh*t going on. I'm steaming.
