He didn't just attack Ron Paul... He attacked the entire libertarian wing of the GOP + Herman Cain. Basically, "if you're not one of us, you're a sideshow.."

Johnson supporters and Paul supporters and even Cain supporters should team up in emailing this asshat.

I didn't even know who the hell Howard Kurtz was. What does that make him? A nobody.

As a Christian, I'm used to having my God insulted and called all sorts of derogatory names. As a Ron Paul supporter, I'm also used to the same things, so Howard Kurtz's words don't phase me. They're just a reminder of how ignorant our media pundits have become, but also it's a sign that we'll need to work just as hard as in the last campaign to show the public that Congressman Paul has always been right.

Let's get ready to rumble.

Who cares?

Besides, even if Ron is indeed a sideshow, he's stealing a lot of attention from the main acts and forcing them to do things to try and attract back the audience they are losing.

Im just going to keep my comments about this "Kurtz" fellow to myself. He gives away why he considers anybody other than the media appointed frontrunners to be "sideshows" and he doesn't have to say a word.

Thus, the attacks.

The funny thing is his show, "Reliable Sources", reports about the media as if they're an unbiased onlooker. Here they are actively manipulating the story. Journalistic integrity is dead. All we have is corporate news whores. :mad:

Most all MSM "news" sources have become nothing more than organs of the state, sock puppets of "approved" opinion and news, with a bland flavor of "left" or "right" to appeal to the taste buds of the masses of mundanes.

Ron Paul is a Habenero on a spice rack of salt and stale black pepper.

Its ironic that Kurtz would call Paul a sideshow, and say we should have waited for the "Heavyweights" like Palin, Newt, Romney, Huckabee, when in fact, those candidates are the REAL sideshow, distracting americans from the real issues facing them, by continuing to play-act in the false left-right paradigm.

So Ron Paul supporters are a circus side-show Mr. Kurtz? Well, just wait until we side show elephants trample your little neat and tidy tent in a few more months. :)

Pawlenty and everyone calling him "top tier" is the sideshow. He's unknown nationally, and doesn't inspire any enthusiasm once people do get to know him.

I honestly think it's more accurate to call them propagandists. :(

he thinks 2012 is the same as 2008; in 2008 it was in a way a sideshow, as were Kucinich, Gravel, and even Obama in the beginning. 2012 is different, no dem primaries, public more fed up, falling living standards.
