"Ron Paul Excluded in Iowa"

Posters via Snail Mail

As someone above said, be nice. The contact info of the excluders is posted below. I've heard that the email boxes are full. I tried calling both numbers; one is constantly busy, the other is not answering.

A few days ago, I made up some Iowa posters that say, "IOWA LOVES RON PAUL And you will, too." This seems like a perfect time to deploy them. They are here:

They print off on an 8.5x11 inch sheet of paper. Please print a couple off and pop them in the mail tomorrow morning.

Better yet - if someone lives near the offices, maybe you could go hang a few on their door!

We cannot let this stand!

Yes

Do a google search on this Failor guy. He is into everything and any candidate that wants to do anything in Iowa seems to be connected to him. Seems he is a lobbyist also for major corporations. Interesting read so far.

Excellent. I'm sending the IRS one to "Tax Relief"
 
I'm not opposed to using other candidates too. It's simple to in a single action, send this story to all the Iowa news outlets!

Contact all the papers around Iowa.

I just wrote the Press Citizen in Iowa City this:

Thank you for looking into this piece of news. It's all over the internet and sure to be headlines in Iowa.

NEWS STORY:

An organization called "Iowans for Tax Relief" are EXCLUDING one of the GOP Candidates from a Forum because he's the only Republican against the war ! - Yet he has the BEST TAX VOTING record in congress over the past 10 years. Is this ironic?

Brief Overview of Congressman Paul’s Record:

He has never voted to raise taxes.
He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
He has never taken a government-paid junket.
He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.

He voted against the Patriot Act.
He voted against regulating the Internet.
He voted against the Iraq war.

He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.
He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.

Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.
 
lol, people just have no idea what they are dealing with now.

Don't tread on me
 
Charge!!

Yikes! I leave my desk for a few hours and all hell breaks loose!

I received an invitation to this event on June 1 and posted this in the "News from Iowa" thread:

"Two interesting pieces of mail today...
  1. A slick ad from Brownback
  2. An invite to the "Presidential Candidates Forum" in Des Moines on June 30. This event is sponsored by Iowans for Tax Reliefand Iowa Christian Alliance. Confirmed to attend are Brownback, Gilmore, Huckabee, Romney, Tancredo, and T. Thompson. I think this shows you who the candidates are who are trying to use Iowa to propel themselves onto the national stage."
I didn't pay much attention to this since Dr. Paul wasn't coming and since 2 of the big 3 weren't listed I thought it wouldn't be a big event. It's a much bigger event now that Giuliani and McCain have since announced they will skip the Ames Straw Poll and Ron Paul has declared that our goal is to WIN IN AMES. The stakes are high now. Unfortunately I tossed it. I never imagined that if Dr. Paul decided he wanted to participate that he wouldn't be allowed. I went to an Iowans for Tax Relief conference about 10 years ago and I'm still on their mailing list. I've always thought it was a pretty good outfit - they do some heavy-duty lobbing in Iowa on behalf of taxpayers here. I can't imagine why they wouldn't want Dr. Paul to be part of this event.

I'll give them a call in the morning. I love all the energy of the Ron Paul crowd - just please try to be tactful as that will truly improve our odds of success. I think this is especially true in Iowa where people tend to be genuine and friendly. David Yepsen at the DSM Register is generally a straight-shooter and nationally known so I think some positive letters to him about Dr. Paul would be helpful, especially if you're from Iowa. A lot of you have been wondering how to help the effort in Iowa - now's your chance. With an upbeat attitude, call these two organizations as well as the sponsors. Then contact all the media in Iowa that you can in every way possible with Ron Paul's positive message. Use up those extra cell phone minutes.

I'm getting plenty of emails through the Des Moines meetup group about this so that's done - someone contact the Quad Cities/Davenport meetup and report back here since that meetup is much closer to Muscatine, the home of Iowans for Tax Relief.

Reminder - this thing was touted as a 'forum', not a 'debate'. I'm not sure what kind of media presence was expected but the place they're hosting this will hold several hundred people.

Sent a message to Alex Jones to request he post Ron Paul's exclusion on his website.

Like Alex or not, he has millions of readers/listener's who love Ron Paul. The call to action from Alex will pretty much shut their offices down for days...LOL. Muahahahaha
 
I have nothing personal against the LDS church, but I find it ironic that a Conservative Christian Organization who would choose someone who was a member of a church who believed that they can achieve godhood over a mainline Christian like Ron Paul.
 
Found where Steve Sheffler is tied to Buchannan. Will see who else and get back.
 
all you RP supporters in the area need to rally and raise hell......

bring massive signs of protest........give em hell........I would be pissed!

I hate this censorship!

Chirstian Alliance my ass!

If they were christians they would not support the sin of false wieghts and measures in the form of inflationary diluting the currency and robbing us of our savings and future, as ALL the candidates but RP supports.......

thus they are not republicans....they are neocon/globalizers
 
I wonder if the snub of Dr. Paul might be because those people are christian warmongers?
