Did anyone hear Medved today?

[Ron LOL]

Are you serious? Do you think there is not bad supporters under every candidate??? ... He's a bitch and you side with him. Sorry, but that irritates me.

Dude, we have a monopoly on raging 'tards. Don't deny it. The staggering volume of hatemail clogging the inbox of anybody even slightly critical of RP should be proof enough.

Edit: oh yeah, almost forgot such favorites as "shill," "traitor," "sheeple," and on and on and on...you'll note that most of that garbage is absent from the lexicon of other candidates' supporters.

Inbox? E-mail? You'd have to show me PROOF they are all from RP supports.

Nice cut and paste. You should work for the MSM.

 

[Jae0]

Also... THEIR idea of 'hate' mail might just be a RP supporting sending something like, "I really dont appreciate your treatment of Ron Paul. I think you're being unfair and should try to be more balanced." They might consider any positive mail and Paul to be hate mail.

 

[Rhys]

Medved's not the only one who thinks that. Some of my earliest converts were wishy washy for a long time because of the nuts in the basket.

Very conservative people are turned off by the in your face attitude of the normal RP supporters... just imagine what they think when they see the loony-tunes.

 

[Soccrmastr]

None of you guys seem to get this one. RP is great. Being such a big tent, however, there's a large number of crazies amongst us -- and they make RP look awful. Medved is 100% correct in that comment.

QFT.. sometimes supporters arent thinking and scream about NWO at caucus meetings for example. Bad idea!

Very true, however, Michael MedVed, if it is the one who I am thinking of with the higher pitched voice is mad at everybody.

You might be thinking of Mark Levin. He is always ranting and shrieking about something. He hates Ron Paul with a passion.

Medved always sounds condescending and holier than thou. Anyone who dares disagree with him is immoral. He calls libertarians "losertarians".

How did the airwaves get so many losers? Michael Savage/Wiener is another one. Total fruitcake fascist.

And then there is Hannity, the "conservative" who despises the only true conservative, Ron Paul.

 

[mynameisJason]

It took me quite a while to come around because of some of the nutty RP supporters. I lurk around a lot of the forums and some of the stuff you read is just plain nutty.

But in all honesty, I think that's a bit judgemental and nutty of me...

The real craziness is when you go read other "conservative Republican" forums. There is a lot of fighting about the best candidate. The Romney people and McCain people just don't get it. Everything that is wrong with their candidate is what is right with Dr. Paul. They can't see the tree because of the forest.

Anyway, I don't get how anyone supports McCain. If you want Hillary, just vote for Hillary. Ugh.

 

[Ron LOL]

Inbox? E-mail? You'd have to show me PROOF they are all from RP supports.

LOL. You two just proved my point beautifully.

"THOSE PEOPLE ARE NOT REAL RON PAUL SUPPORTERS THEY ARE FAKERS ROAR."

I must be a, oh, what would be good..."neo-con warmonger traitor MSM hack bought-and-paid-for establishment shill." I guess that works. Someone should write a Ron Paul supporter insult generator.

Seriously, come on. Be realistic. You're deluding yourself if you think Ron Paul doesn't have a drastically higher ratio of batshit insane groupies to "normal supporters" than other candidates.

Instead of saying "I'm not listening, I'm not listening la la la la la la" and plugging your fingers in your ears, why not recognize that the problem is real? The worst part is that I really don't think there's much that can be done about it.

Edit:

At least SOMEONE gets it.

Blech. Medved is an idiot. A war mongering idiot.

He just might be, but does that make him wrong? Hint: if you say yes, you're ignoring reality.

Did I call anyone a retard??? Nice slur. I was correct however, you took my first and last statement and tried to say something about me. Just like the MSM does. Then you think you can some moral high ground? YOU JUST CALLED PEOPLE RETARDS? Are you kidding. Leave me alone about this now, you think our nemesis, the media is right! Outrageous.

 

[gracebkr]

He just might be, but does that make him wrong? Hint: if you say yes, you're ignoring reality.

No,but it means he has a reason to HATE RON PAUL and us who are against the war.

 

[evandi]

You're ignoring reality. No other candidate has so many dedicated supporters as Ron Paul.

Hucksarmy comes closest, and I've heard bad things from Huckabee people as well.

Just keep ignoring reality, keep yelling for people to not talk about things that they believe in. Keep giving Medved a pass after he slandered Ron Paul.

He slandered Ron Paul because Ron Paul had some racist followers, as if that made any sense.

Just STFU, because what you are saying is unfair and unreal.

 

[Myerz]

Judge a man on his character, integrity, and voting record. Period...nothing else.

If you go by anything else, especially something that is beyond his control, then you are completely misguided.

Sure, we have some hyper-active people among us......there everywhere! None of us are perfect.

Oh please, I snipped what you said because it was a bunch of hot air. It must suck to be so sensitive.

You continue to completely miss the point. Is it asinine to judge a candidate by his supporters?

Maybe, but maybe not. Consider the media blackout. In this case, all voters have to go by is Ron Paul supporters. Suddenly it's not so asinine. It may be fun to (for example) make so much noise that Giuliani can't give an interview, but ultimately, it reflects poorly on Ron Paul.

You might be be correct when you (no, not you personally, roll with me here), as the example was given, shout about the NWO at caucus meetings. You could be completely, 100% accurate and factually correct. But if you sound crazy doing it, then again, it reflects poorly on Ron Paul.

In these examples, we're GREAT reasons not to vote for Ron Paul. And guess what? Such examples aren't uncommon at all. You would do well to consider that fact before mouthing off again.

Unfair and unreal? Dude, think. You'd think Ron Paul supporters of all people would be pros at this, but I'm frequently surprised.

Let's say there's an activity I like that I can't do by myself. I might look for a club that supports that activity. If I join the club only to find that the members are all a little bit weird I'm probably not likely to go back.

See where I'm going with this one?

Nobody's telling you to stop supporting Ron Paul. However, the criticism of Ron Paul by proxy is reasonable. For crying out loud, go read blog comments on a story critical of Paul. You can crow on about how those aren't "real" Ron Paul supporters until the cows come home. But we both know they are real.

The grassroots is Ron Paul's greatest ally and his worst enemy at the same time.

No, you cut and paste that for effect. You only mentioned my steaming comments, but not my argument. weak. Then yet an ad hominem attack.

It must suck to be so sensitive.

Then you claimed it was my comments that hurt Ron Paul, when you called people "retards"

Now you deny that that even matters, even though you were the one who and are still the defending MedVed when it is your comments MedVed could be referring to. I know I heard MedVed get angry at a caller who called someone a retard. So, it's you??

You continue to completely miss the point. Is it asinine to judge a candidate by his supporters?

Also, MedVed is not a moron, he knows the msm is trying to destroy Ron Paul and he knows he is not getting fair time so why would a fair guy bring that up? Because he HATES us and Ron Paul and would say anything if it were true or not to hurt us. Plus, he also knows RP supporters get a lot of slack, maybe just maybe those people who may or may not be threatening are not RP supporters, but in fact people trying to hurt RP. MedVed knows this. He is also supposed to be a smart guy, sorry, but only an idiot bases his vote on a supporter. Seriously, if you have been around people ever in your life, you know enough to know that all people are different, but it doesn't reflect who a presidential candidate might be or not be. It is ridiculous. A person in MedVed's position ought to realize his impact, I think he does and that is why he says it. Like RP can control shit like that.


I know no such thing about anyone and their blogs. I am sure you find the same thing across the board, but only Ron Paul gets mentioned because he threatens to bring down the institution that MedVed clearly depends on.

 

[gracebkr]

ron lol, have you ever taken stats?

I don't think it would hold any water at all to say we have more crazies with less supporters than the rest. Stats say that can't be true. The bigger the group the more crazies.

yea but there is a population of supporters here in denial and downright disrepect for anyone asking them to put on their best and not their worst
