VIDEO: Rachel Maddow Vilifying Ron Paul

[sailingaway]

Well, yes, she (and all others on MSNBC) can always be counted on to cover any missteps of the GOP/RNC, just as Hannity and others on FOXNews can be counted on to cover missteps by the Dems. But when it comes to their own party

this

 

[MisfitToy]

The reason people ask these questions is because people like her never answer them.

 

[QuickZ06]

Conspiracy theories, thats nice.

FACT; NDAA, Patriot Act, CISPA (passed house) gun control bills, and many many more all against FREEDOM!

 

[WhistlinDave]

Not too long ago, some might've called her a "conspiracy theorist" for all her concern over "secret, illegal" drone warfare the US is engaging in.

 

[GopBlackList]

Maddow paints liberty movement as conspiracy theorists and paranoid nut jobs. Makes references to Alex Jones and Glenn Beck.

​

She's right about some of the content. It still baffles my mind that this forum actually supported a whacko bigot like Kerry for Congress. Sadly this so called "Liberty Movement" is just veiled far-right social conservatism, not libertarian.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they attack you, then you win.

If Kerry is a bigot, I never heard of it. But he didn't vote very well, so you may note his forum here is gone.

I also have to say this goes along with my glee at Ron being attacked by all those neoconservatives no one has thought of in years who darted out from under their rocks to attack him about his Peace and Prosperity Institute. The fading Trotskyites on the right fear his influence on the right, and the left spin cycle fears losing their control of allegiances on the left -- when their President is continuing everything Bush did and adding new, bad stuff like NDAA and going into multiple countries without ANY approval by congress.

yeah, you summed it up pretty well.

They feel Ron's influence growing by the day.

She used to get some respect for me, back when she did the indefinite detention expose on Obama, but then she started being invited to the White House and turned into a pure cheerleader with merely the slightest 'concern things don't go to far' if Obama does something absolutely unacceptable.

She's really not worth posting. Unfortunately because she once appeared to have integrity, people who liked her long term can be persuaded by her.

But here's the thing, Ron is Ron. All they have against him is stuff they make up, or smear so far beyond reality that the overall impression is a lie. When media is going to do that, the only people who will ignore it are those who are going to do their own research. And once they do, all this falls apart.

I agree here--but I'd just like to point out that this makes her even worse than most of the usual suspects. Long ago I would have actually defended her as being someone who means well, but just doesn't have the full picture.

I think she always did, I think she's freely spending her "respect" points in order to promote incredibly unethical things, and I think she's currently a very dangerous "journalist."

 

[jmdrake]

If Kerry is a bigot, I never heard of it. But he didn't vote very well, so you may note his forum here is gone.

Seeing Rachel Madcow attack him for bringing up what are well known plans for martial law in case of a national emergency makes me wonder if that was premature.

[matt0611]

Remember when Bush was President for Democrats "questioning authority" or questioning the real story was patriotic?

The left really is a master at political rhetoric, distortions, newspeak, and convenient flip-flopping.

 

[roho76]

FUCK........now, four more people wont become liberty lovers.

 

[Brian4Liberty]

Yeah, I agree. And I think the reason why the DHS is buying all of this ammunition isn't to use it against Americans, but to make ammunition more scarce and make the price of ammunition go through the roof. It's just a backdoor form of gun control.

Very possible. The wars drove up ammo prices, and they decided to extend that effect with these new purchases since Iraq was winding down.

 

[RP Supporter]

Rand's biggest mistake was ever going on that vile woman's show.

I had hope for her at first. I truly believed she cared about more than the Dem party line. But we saw how long her so called principals lasted once she had a chance to score a goal for her "team".

 

[unknown]

Can someone summarize the Ron Paul aspect? I cant stand to watch this piece of trash.

 

[Henry Rogue]

Hey Rachel, is that an anal probe in your pocket or are you just happy to see me.

 

[paulbot24]

"She seems like a very angry young man."

 

[jmdrake]

Can someone summarize the Ron Paul aspect? I cant stand to watch this piece of trash.

Racists newsletters, blah blah, conspiracy theorists, blah blah, making money off of fear, blah blah, Alex Jones, blah, Glen Beck, blah blah, now mainstream republicans buying into this, blah blah, it's crazy that they think the government may be buying bullets for some nefarious purpose, blah blah, Kerry Bentivolio kisses rein deer heads and dares ask if there is a plan to put Americans in camps in case of a national emergency, blah blah, conspiracies were okay when they were anti Bush, but now they're anti Obama and we can't have that, blah.

I agree. Why don't people understand when you go on these shows that the host controls the frame and can twist your words however they want and make you look like an ass, and there's nothing you can do about it. And the people watching agree with the host or else they wouldn't be watching the show in the first place.
