Fox News Inserts Sound Bite (Laughter) Toward Paul? A Must Hear

[dkim68]

It was a hostile crowd for Dr. Paul....so many neo-cons

I cannot understand how or why anyone would want to be on board with the neo-cons. Can someone explain to me what the big payoff is to be among evil people?

But a lot of people that were there think Dr. Paul is the laughing stock of our party. Everyone knows I don't agree with that, I think he is the smartest man in Washington. But, people are so brainwashed by Fox, that anything he says is just "funny".

I fear a lot of people will find him funny right up to the point they are standing in soup lines.

It's also in this SC debate clip at 1:25.

Here.

This is disgusting.

Good Find. That is essentially three of the exact same laughs now. The other two seem "planted" after the moderators (and everyone else at fox) knew they were going to ask Dr. Paul stupid questions. This one seems like "hey everyone is laughing play the clip."

Watching Guliani's body language during the 1:25-1:28 mark it doesn't appear to me to be the movement of someone laughing. Quite the contrary actually.


Makes sense now with Cameron's muttering of "their way" before the "electability" question:

*one way to get the most laughter.

*The other to word it "nicer."

Now couple all this with the fact that they seem to fuck with Ron Paul's ear piece (and Romney mocking RP off camera) and it all is coming together and makes sense. Paul is probably fucken pissed off!

NO WONDER HE DIDN'T DO A POST DEBATE WITH HANNITY!!

The way to combat this would be to have RP supporters in every debate laughing their asses off everytime one of the other candidates tries to make a serious answer to a question.

Give 'em a taste of their own medicine.

That is the laugh of "The Ghoul".

You want to see what a dick Rudy can be to American citizens? Watch these:

Hmm... Laughing seems to be ok, right? We just show up at other candidate events (without RP ID) and just laugh when they speak. A lot.

 

[ForTheRevolution]

thats just the laugh of the ghoul. You can go back to every other debate on different networks and you will hear it. Kinda frightening really...

 

[N13]

Good work. The laugh is the ghoul. McCain's stupid faces caused the laughter before Romney's stupid commet.

It's always best to have the last laugh.

 

[dkim68]

McCain's speech is slurred like a stroke victim.

 

[DrCap]

They have to laugh

They can't debate him on the facts.

I find it very disturbing that in these debates, they laugh at his foreign policy. He really should call them on it, bluntly -" it is not a laughing matter, and we are having a presidential debate about national security, at least you could show the decency to listen to another argument, maybe that's why you are so wrong. Or maybe you're wrong because you don't have the experience in foreign policy- only RP and mccain (and thompson who is pretty much out) have federal govt. experience. Governors and a mayor don't have foreign policy experience."

 

[CurtisLow]

It's just Guiliani laughing.

Yep.. The Mayor of terrorism

 

[Highstreet]

I didn't notice anything done by Romney. I think It was one of two things )or a combo):
1) At the debate they were also showing it (as it appeared on Fox News) on 2 huge projection screens on either sides of the stage. The laugh occurs when there is a split shot of McCain/Paul. From the audience's point of view, I think people thought it was highlighting a weird look McCain is giving Paul. In other words, I dont think there was a significant reason there was a split shot there, but the audience thought that there was a reason, and couldn't really tell if McCain was making a weird face, so they figured since McCain is being shown during Paul's time...it must be for a reason.

2) I think it also has a lot to do with the anti-Ron Paul crowd. It comes right after he makes his comment about Iran, which he was ridiculed all night for.

We do have a problem guys...maybe this event was just for "hard core" supporters. But a lot of people that were there think Dr. Paul is the laughing stock of our party. Everyone knows I don't agree with that, I think he is the smartest man in Washington. But, people are so brainwashed by Fox, that anything he says is just "funny".
We need to change this. Somehow, im not sure how...we need to look at how these ideas Ron Paul has have been right in the past. We need to pound home that the idea of nation building is all a big "flip-flop" in the party.

Easy way:

I just call it a Nanny State Foreign Policy, because that's what it is. This helps make it easy to understand for those who don't get into the explanation too deeply.

 

[Dr.3D]

The entire 'debate' seems like it was scripted. I believe the other candidates were told in advance what the questions would be.

As for the 'debate', there was no debate! A debate is where every person is asked the same questions.

This was a group interview, designed to make one of the candidates look better than the rest.
This is done to encourage those watching to believe there is conflict between the 'major candidates' while in fact there is really little conflict at all.

 

[tekmo]

Despite the talk on a hostile crowd, I really thought the audience reaction on TV was pretty good for Paul. Although there were some boos, there were far less than previous debates... and this time around the same snide remarks by the candidates got boo'ed (ex: Romney)

Looks like its little weak PR work on Pauls part. Most of the people in the US dont support the war so - he should rely on this. Also many of his views are supported in the region where the democracy is still practiced - Europe.

He should refer to France and other parts of European countries who hold the same view as Paul. Many European countries have come out of Iraq - some of the countries next day after elections like Paul proposes for US - so the fact needs to be addressed.

In finance he should refer to finance authorities opinions - like investor Jim Rogers suggests abolishing Fed like Paul.

This way it adds more credibility to Paul positions which are really nothing special - many Paul positions are practiced or would get majority support in Europe.
