[Video] Open Mic @Pentagon Press Room "See This Room, 2/3s' of us Laid-Off With Ron Paul"

Has anyone thought that people who are only moderately interested in politics might read the headline and think "OH NO! UNEMPLOYMENT WOULD GO UP!? Why would anyone want to increase joblessness?" without actually checking into the context?
 
I love this forum. You guys rock. Good discovery and good job getting this on Drudge!
 
I think we maybe over looking something. This reporter said 3/4 would be fired. Why would they be fired? BECAUSE THERE IS PEACE.
 
Caution: If this goes viral and gets "skewed" it will cause a panic with the name of our candidate. You could actually cost him the nomination!!!

Be careful what you wish for.

Isn't that the entire point of this? What were you guys so excited for, if not that? I'm confused.
 
You know this thread is what broke that. RCP is probably monitoring the forum, saw that the hot mic would be a traffic driving link because of Ron Paul supporters and posted the article. The thread went to work again sending it to drudge as soon as the tube was up. In less than 3 hours and about 100 posts, people on Ron Paul forums have influence the presidential race.

BooYA!
 
and now drudge has a link with Ron Paul 2012 and the man behind the podium! Nice coverage! Way to get him in the news and keep him front and center!

Be careful waht you wish for.

Mods: Talk to these folks please. :)

Exactly. People, think about your thread titles and phrasing.

Maybe something like "Reporter caught on hot mic joking that Ron Paul's peace-platform would cost them their jobs!"
 
I just ran this through. Thanks Grado headphones :)

It's a group of three or four men and one woman talking about foreign policy. The words I'm unsure about are in brackets. I have a nicer DAC that I can run it through again to try and pick up more detail.

Reporter 1: When in fact [we've shelled] we've proved for the last defenders...
Reporter 2: We've proved for the last ten years, we've said repeatedly we only can run it, we can fight two wars... [win this]
Reporter 3: This is all good for the [run] for the company, when Ron Paul becomes President. (woman laughs) They... [inaudible, something about the company again]
Reporter 1: (interrupts) See this room? Two thirds of us laid off when Ron Paul becomes President. (two men laugh)
Another reporter: Someone emailed me this fundraiser [with] two more valuable positions were valid before Obama was born.
Reporter 2: Well World War II. We fought two wars.
Woman: Right.
Reporter 2: That's where it comes from.
Another: Right.
Reporter 2: [Sick of being here/there] right. This'll be fine. It's like a [forty] mobilized countries with everyone [inaudible]
Woman: Now it's company [inaudible] for the ground troops... [inaudible]
Older man: For the idea also being, from like, [inaudible] [troops]...

CSPAN Reporter interrupts.

The interesting thing is both men definitely say when Ron Paul becomes President. The first guy sounds a bit sarcastic though.
 
Hallelujah Hat Trick!
