Enjoy, I did!

With all of the disclaimers that the media attaches to coverage of Paul, it’s starting to take several minutes just to get to the actual “news” in the article.

“Libertarian gadfly Ron Paul, who continues his quixotic campaign for the Republican nomination despite not having won a single state (even though he’s won two and counting), and who cannot, never could and never will be able to win the nomination, who has many supporters who believe in fringe conspiracy theories but have nevertheless ‘hijacked’ the Republican state conventions in several states by ‘exploiting’ arcane rules governing the delegate selection process, but who still has only secured 80 delegates to the RNC despite the fact that we just told you that number is grossly understated because the people reporting it don’t know about the arcane rules, today announced…”

Wow, bravo to the Washington Times for speaking out about how rudely other news organizations are treating Paul. Heck, this might have just made me a faithful WT reader D:

Why the hell would you quote that specific section of the article? And embolden it with large font? I'm glad I checked it out as it was a good read.

Wow! Same article I was just reading such inspiring comments from some of Ron Paul's many fervent worldwide supporters.
Yep, freedom is popular everywhere.
