Ron Paul: (http://www.facebook.com/#!/ronpaul/posts/10150126317071686) I'll be on Huckabee on FOX News tonight at 8:05 ET. We're making up this week since last Saturday's interview was preempted.

Wait, you mean the NWO didn't start a war in Libya to prevent it from airing after all? http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-laughing004.gif

Anyway, tune in.

Of course they did. But all those lives were wasted because we noticed and called them on it. So now they have their war and we have our interview. Everyone wins but the Libyans, those who thought Obama was a peacenik and Mike Huckabee.

I can't stand that phony preacher. Before Paul came, he said Obama should stick to sports broadcasting, because he seems good at it, and if he makes a mistake, it doesn't really matter, unlike when he makes decisions on important issues. It reminded me of an issue Huckabee made decisions which really mattered, like pardoning a rapist and a killer who went on to rape and kill after he was freed. Why doesn't he publicly repent about those decisions and commit to never ever run for office again?

Ron looked tired.

Huckabee tried to get Ron to contradict himself asking him whether he would vote for impeachment if Kucinich brought it up. Paul didn't fall into the trap, so Huckabee was disappointed and ended the interview.

Cool it guys. He had him on and was nice.

In the likely event he does not run, he might endorse Paul.

One think I didn't like was Paul saying that presidents had been too bold. I certainly hope if we can get him elected, that he will be bold. It's going to take that to fix things.

I think it was even more specific to being to bold in our foreign policy. American Presidents seem to think that oath to protect the Constitution "from all enemies foreign" refers to imposing Western democracy wherever feasible.

Ron has said that the president was fairly limited in what he could do.

Consider executive orders. I'm under the impression they are unconstitutional, but you can't get rid of one without signing an executive order.

How could Paul abolish a regulatory agency if Congress voted it into existence? I suppose he could veto it's funding, but Congress could over-ride him and even if he did, it would only last while he was in office.

Yeah, it was. But they said the same thing about Ron's campaign. And it seems like Huckabee went into the convention with more delegates.

His listeners aren't a waste of time. Dr. Paul's right to go try for their good opinion.

Congress could vote it out of existence and President Paul could sign the bill.

I think it's constitutional to sign an executive order nullifying all others.

He could simply not make appointments. If he has an adversarial Congress, he won't be able to change much except for bringing the troops home from more than 100 countries, ending three wars, and pardoning all non-violent drug users. I wonder if he could suspend the income tax for 4 years. If he does, the effect will be that people know that the country can survive without an income tax, and make them more willing to repeal it. The consequences of that action will be felt even after Ron leaves office.

Executive orders are constitutional. However, they are only to be for the purposes of executing the laws of the United States, which means that Congress has to have already passed a law/act pursuant to the Constitution before the President can issue an executive order to accomplish it. That is what it means to even have an executive branch.

That's a LOT o seats!

Personally, I think Paul shutting them down for a while and people seeing things get better would be the way to do it. Take the FDA or Dept of Education, for example.

Is an interesting notion. Congress votes them into existence and funds them, while the executive is placed (at least nominally) in charge of many or most of them through the Cabinet. So, if he has his cabinet secretary shut them down, how does he keep them from spending whatever money Congress has already given them? And will Congress insist on honoring the seniority of all those civil servants?

Newt Gingrich says he could sign as many as 200 executive orders on his first day as president, accomplishing everything from abolishing a circuit court to further tightening restrictions on federal funding for abortions.

“If we have the right election in 2012 and we elect the right congress and the right president that from day one, we can have executive orders — maybe as many as 150 to 200 of them — on the first day,” Gingrich told religious conservatives at the American Family Association's pastors' policy briefing in Iowa Friday.

How can we contrast for the public this dictatorial crap from Ron Paul's true principles? If we can do that, we can finally rise above all this Tea Party astroturf noise.

Thanks for the tube. I deleted it because I thought they bumped him again, this time to honor Geraldine Ferraro. For some reason I was under the impression it was going to be a major segment with him in the studio (wishful thinking maybe).

Too short, but it was a good interview.

Really, what has the real point of this interview? It came across as really strange the way Huckabee framed the whole interview. Couldn't figure out if it was an attempt to make him seem as fringe as Kucinich or whether he just had him on to increase rating or what??? I thought the interview probably didn't hurt RP with Huckabee's audience but didn't allow for much insights into his reasoning either. There was so much more RP could have added to the discussion.

Believing it is an impeachable offense and actually calling for impeachment are two different things. As Paul said, if congress jumped to impeachment for every possible offense no president would stay in office for more than a year and congress would never get anything done. Say... we might be on to something here.

Rachel Mills gave the News Media the impression that Ron Paul supported impeachment. Can't really fault Mike Huckabee for that one.

strictly a guess here but it looks to me like the original segment was not aired when it was timely and when it would have been a strong counter to a week of war propoganda by fox/faux news

...now after a week of war machine propaganda blitz we have an edited segment of what Ron Paul actually said a week ago --

Even having said all that it still is hard to make Ron Paul look bad because he is so honest and so knowledgeable about the constitution and the ways of washington/msm

not another war please everyone!
no more money down the drain dear Congress!
no more lives lost at our hands dear humanitarians!
no more violation of the Constitution dear Republicans/Democrats!

This is a new interview since Hucabee closed with talking about Geraldine Ferraro. Fox must have shelved the origial interview.

Where does Huckabee get his information? Huckabee looked like a fool, by not having accurate quotes of what RP said in regards to impeachement for Obama over the Libyan attack. In Huckabee's defense, he looked as pissed about the incorrect information as RP did, someone on Huckabee's staff will likely get fired over this.

Huckabee probably got his information from the same place as "Canada's National Igloo".

Don't know how much credit I give him for this. He didn't get that much more chance to be heard at all in the debates than Paul himself. Who knows what he would have done, given the time. And I expect Paul looked unhappy with the situation here because he was hoping for more out of Huckabee than Impeachment Gotcha. Why he would assume Paul would jump on every impeachable offense I'm sure I don't know, but as the man said in a bad movie once, 'Assumption is the mother of all $@&%ups.

Bottom line for Ron Paul, he doesn't like to waste his time on leg. that won't go anywhere. Another thing many people don't get is Ron Paul, would encourage phasing out depts. not simply ending them as soon as he took office.
