Question Ron Paul asked to John McCain???

[TaiwanGuy]

i think it was an alright question that was delivered extremely poorly. after reading up on the subject, i think he was trying to bait mccain into admitting something that paul will address in the future, but who knows.

i think that there are millions of better questions to attract voters though. he really had the opportunity to make someone look dumb.

I wanted him to ask "How do any of you plan to win the general election when 70% of the american public is against this war?"

 

[DirtMcGirt]

I guarantee that 82% of United States citizens never heard of that, mccain should of... RP is my hero!!!

It was the first actual debate question asked in the last year of this so-called debating.

LOL...All my family and friends love the fact that they are learning from a 'politician' for the first time in their lives!!

This is the most priceless quote I have ever seen in all of my life. OMG, I absolutely LOVE it!

This need to be made into a bumper sticker or a t-shirt or something.

Trust me on this...

Don't listen to anyone asking you what this question meant,
Then "informs you" it was "useless"
I don't hold their lack of knowledge against them, just see it for what it is, because I used to live there myself.
RP started the "rumor" that is NOT a "rumor", that was said to be "only a rumor"
BRILLIANT.

I think the question was designed to raise awareness more than anything.

Absolutely.
It needs to be known that a band of rich elites throw their money in to whatever it takes to save their asses and maintain control of the empire. They have been meddling with the metals (no pun intended) and with NYSE and with ________ for decades. Time to call them out.
Batter up.

It was a terrible question outta RP and an even worse complete duck by McCain. RP just knows alot more then the guys he is dancing with, people just need to get used to that The man is smart. It was like the Humprey hawkins testimony with Greenspan every year. No one else in the room knew what he and RP were even going at it about. Ali Frazier every-single-time.

The rookies in the room pandered. It was always "isnt my pet project the best thing ever?" and Al would talk right through them. Say nothing and have the guy taking notes.

Thats what it looked like.


Poor question. He should asked...

McCain about POWs

or

Romney about LBOs

or

Rudy about equity stakes in the homeland security companies he pimps

or

Huckleberry on why he is Carl Mencia to his ideas

or

McCain on the Keating 5

or

Rudy about firefighters

or

Romney about the difference between fees and taxes

or

McCain about being a dick

or

Huckleberry about why Chuck Norris

or

MSNBC on why they and everyone else keep talking third party

or

why he gets one tenth of the airtime and six times the donors

or

Why is our country no longer first...he shoulda asked that to every single one of them.

Lol..Senator McCain, why are you a cock?

You know I once saw an interview with McCain in 2000 where he was talking about money in politics where he admitted that getting money from PACs had caused him to change his vote- don't know why no one has dug that up- the man admitted to being bribed.

This "Working Group" from wikipedia:

"Plunge Protection Team"
One theory regarding the Working Group refers to it as the Plunge Protection Team. This theory claims that the Working Group is a scheme to manipulate U.S. stock markets in the event of a market crash by using government funds to buy stocks, or other instruments such as stock index futures.

The term "Plunge Protection Team" was originally the headline for an article in The Washington Post by staff writer Brett D. Fromson, published on Sunday, February 23, 1997.[2] He did not invent the term. It was added later by a copy desk editor as a sensational nickname for the Working Group.[3]

From me:

The article has been edited TODAY. I don't remember everything that has been removed, but I distinctly recall the word "Hyperinflation." This group essentially protects rich stockholders by propping up markets with tax revenues and monetary expansion (inflation). The people who ultimately pay for this scheme are wage earners and savers (us), and taxpayers (also us).

I'm sure McCain was thinking, "What can I say? I know sunshine, every one likes sunshine, that's why I moved to Arizona, sunshine."

Congressman Paul, I believe in sunshine...it gives us vitamin D....

"I'll chase you to the gates of hell, sunshine!"

There should be a drinking game requiring contestants to take a shot every time McCain blinks.
