What do you guys think? I think that this is great and really hope that the press makes a big deal about this. Does anyone know anything else about this event?

Never heard about it but Michael Scheuer is a respected expert in the field. Looks like Ron is trying hard to capitalize on the fascist Benito Guiliani`s mistake.

 

[JoshLowry]

I hope he does capitalize on it. So many people have slammed him for it, the record should be set straight.

Here is a link where a talk show got to talk to Michael Scheuer about blowback and Ron Paul's statements.

I'd put a lot of money on the fact that nobody of the mainstream media is going to be there.

This is Good News

C-Span usually covers these types of presentations, so hopefully the video will get posted on YouTube. The one thing I like about C-Span is that these types of presentations allow the speakers to go in-depth without the ridiculous time constraints in the pseudo-debates, though the call-in segments afterwards sometimes leave something to be desired.

You never know, some of the MSM reporters who cover the DC political scene may just show up out of curiosity, especially if the National Press Club will have another high profile event the same day. It would be enlightening to them for sure.

This is a good press-generating stunt. Should be interesting to watch, too.

 

[LibertyOrDie]

Now is the time for emails and phone calls! It is moments like these that we should be organizing and requesting from the MSM for coverage. Contact FoxNews, MSNBC, CNN, etc and request as a viewer that you would be interested in getting information from this press conference and you want to know where you should watch or read and expect to find out what takes place.

 

[kylejack]

The press will be there, in my opinion. This was a big story for Giuliani, and they're going to love something like this.

 

[MsDoodahs]

The press release was sent to media outlets.

Rather than request they attend, why not use this to see which MSM is going to cover Dr. Paul and which ones aren't?

JMO, YMMV.

 

[DavyDuke17]

Where did you find out about this, so that if I contact the press I can give them proof that it is happening?

 

[MsDoodahs]

I contacted national campaign HQ.

They sent the press release to the media outlets themselves, this morning.

I also asked about us calling to request coverage.

I was told that they at HQ would prefer we back off on pressuring the media to cover it, instead let the media that wants to cover the story do so based on their own view of how big the story is.

Which is why I posted as I did above.

I saw it on his myspace.

 

[Pedrique]

Firing from both barrels. So great.

The radio interview with Scheuer is genius.

That was a good interview, it makes one realize just how bad of a situation we have gotten ourselves into. One that has no easy solutions. Thanks for posting that.

"I mean, it seemed like it was so off the wall," Giuliani added. "And there are so many of these conspiracy theories about September 11, to hear one coming from a Republican was very disappointing. So I thought I just had to step in, nobody else seemed to be doing it. And I seemed to - I had to step in, somebody had to correct this."

This has created an interesting paradox... does this mean Rudy is now a conspiracy theorist?

Their loss. When word of the campaign's success reaches the news the night of the next debate, and paul blows them out of the water, again- our fight for the constutition is going to seriously take off even more than it is already.

Please Digg it up to get the word out. It has been verified by telephone contact with the Ron Paul campaign.

Thanks!

Oh hell yes.
