Morning Joe - Ron Paul to be on

[MsDoodahs]

Just heard it, Joe said Ron will be on later.

[RonPaulCult]

What time is that show on please? And do you know what approx. time Ron Paul will be on?

[MsDoodahs]

Wish I knew the time, Joe did not say. If he mentions a time frame, I'll post it here.

[MsDoodahs]

RPC, it won't be too long, that board of upcoming guests showed Ron up second...

[Real_CaGeD]

I dont care for Scarbrough, not even enough to figure out how to spell his name.

[AMBurns]

What is Morning Joe? Where can I hear it, online or AM/FM local radio, and someone please post a link if it is the former.

Thanks

[MsDoodahs]

MSNBC-TV.

356 for DirecTV users.

Not sure if there is a way to watch live online.

[AMBurns]

Welp, I cancelled my cable to maximize my RP donations on the 16th, so hopefully someone will youtube it.

Thanks anyway.

[Real_CaGeD]

Look at the way they are fawning all over Hillary. Now compare that to the way they will sneer at our man, the good Doctor.

[voytechs]

The show is now 7am EST, he still hasn't been shown, but has been announced several times. They announced him as "Up star candidate on the rise". Wow, that was a very polite intro. He may be coming up within next 15 minutes.

I am recording, just in case.

[sixpackrt]

They said later this hour. it's 7:09 here

[Geronimo]

They oughta change the name of the show to "Morning Tease" or "Morning Ratings Boost"

[voytechs]

Yes, they are putting him on last, because they know that 1000s of RP supporters are watching the entire show.

And I have to take off and drive my kids to school.

[RPFTW!]

Is it just me or does Mika and Joe have some tension between them.

[IRO-bot]

Mika is soooo hot! *drool*

[RPFTW!]

Mika is soooo hot! *drool*

She's ok, too bad her dad is insane

[garrettwombat]

im sorry i had to turn it off... i just couldnt stand to just wake up and look at that demons face.
i hope im not in a bad mood all day

[Real_CaGeD]

This guest Mark Penn is shilling Hillary, BIGTIME.

[IRO-bot]

Isn't her dad like a Commie or something?

[krott5333]

who is this fat slob POS that is stuck on Hillary's nuts? good god.

And then we got Hillary, who frighteningly sounded a lot like Bush did.. "it will be me".. "oh im not gonna lose"

like they already know.

too bad we cant get a receipt with our vote :(

but hey, no one complains, as long as they get a receipt with their caffe latte :mad:

[RPFTW!]

eating cheetos in teh basements he says

[Real_CaGeD]

Paul up next. 7:45 est

[Eric21ND]

Up next. I don't eat cheetos either.

[sixpackrt]

He's on next

[Aballistar]

Hmm, we all live in our basements and eat Cheetos apparently. According to Joe.

[RPFTW!]

Isn't her dad like a Commie or something?

Yeah pretty much.

[Second_Tier_My_Ass]

what a turd

doritos > cheetos

[Real_CaGeD]

It was fun watching Taco John pown the pros last nite.

We need a web tv station to have political shows of our own.

[garrettwombat]

finally the response i wanted to hear about the internet from paul... ugh i cant stand to hear the words "has big support on the internet" makes us sound kinda strange... and of coarse howard dean is mentioned.... ehhh..

[Real_CaGeD]

"Does the internet translates into votes?" It translates into action, votes are the ultimate action.

"throw in the towl?" Kiss my ass.

[garrettwombat]

Mika Is A Fuggin Goober Gobler

[RPFTW!]

Lol "we get like 80,000 emails" hahaha

[RonPaulCult]

Please tell me somebody is going to youtube this very soon. My internet connection isn't fast enough to watch this morning :(

[garrettwombat]

what a bunch of dicks... in all fairness, its pretty funny.

[garrettwombat]

ron paul and ronald reagan WOOT!

[RPFTW!]

That was pretty good interview!

[krott5333]

Joe seems to be pretty favorable. And you could tell that the whole "throw in the towel" thing was prompted by a producer.

[Cap'n Crunk]

I thought it was hilarious the way they ended it, talking about Tucker Carlson.

[Real_CaGeD]

Joe seems to be pretty favorable. And you could tell that the whole "throw in the towel" thing was prompted by a producer.

Yea, she seemed ashamed of the question, and Joe bailed her out.

[DJ RP]

"Big support on the internet" is kind of a meaningless phrase. As if people on the internet aren't just regular people.

They wouldn't say "Gulianni has big support amongst Television viewers"

[rfbz]

darn im late...youtube anyone?

[EvilEngineer]

I thought it was hilarious the way they ended it, talking about Tucker Carlson.

Yup, Dr. Paul is apparently going to have a meeting about it today. Bad tucker bad! bringing a pimp to a rally and getting the press to cover it... on purpose.

pimps4paul.com anyone?

[Second_Tier_My_Ass]

woot!

it was great to hear RP pimp out the december 16 money bomb on live national television, and then have them all talk about it for a minute or two after that.

but joe said that we would raise another 4-5 million on december 16. oh man, is his face going to be red when we surge past 10 million!!!

[RPFTW!]

Yup, Dr. Paul is apparently going to have a meeting about it today. Bad tucker bad! bringing a pimp to a rally and getting the press to cover it... on purpose.

pimps4paul.com anyone?

I also heard he brought a hooker with him when he went to that Vegas rally a couple days ago.

[RPFTW!]

I think Joe's a decent guy, he seems to always make fun of us supporters though but he ends up treating RP well enough.

[speciallyblend]

tucker is an ass,click

[Eric21ND]

Yeah it was a pretty good interview.

Tucker does need a stern talking to...I would've gave him an earfull if I was at that Nevada rally. I swear his support for Paul is so bi-polar...or simply he's just a political opportunist.

[BizmanUSA]

Youtube anyone? Please

[MsDoodahs]

eating cheetos in teh basements he says

Joe was teasing us. :)

[Question_Authority]

It was weird, I had just read an internet article by Faux News where they were tickled PINK to report on the pimp (Headline: Guess who's supporting Ron Paul? La-la-la-laaaa-laaaa)

Anyway, I clicked on the TV just to see if any news channel was talking about it and I heard Ron Paul's voice! And they were talking about the pimp. So weird.

I really do hope the campaign is having a meeting about Tucker today. And I hope they give a good talking-to to Tucker. RP sounded none too happy with his antics.

Gotta hate the Tucker. (Seinfeld reference....did anyone get that?)

YOUTUBE ANYONE? I missed most of it!

[BeFranklin]

Yeah it was a pretty good interview.



They mentioned the Blimp in the text. The tucker part was good because it explained the the negative endorsement from Nevada.

You can bet your paycheck Ron was somewhat angry. He is so traditional he won't be alone in a room with a women. Talk about a gentlemen. I couldn't imagine what was going through Ron's mind standing up there with some prostitutes. Poor guy.

[Goeran]

Come on, don't pick on Tucker. He has said many times that he likes Ron Paul a lot and he might be the most libertarian anchor out there.

[Hope]

Come on, don't pick on Tucker. He has said many times that he likes Ron Paul a lot and he might be the most libertarian anchor out there.

Just because someone says they like Ron Paul doesn't mean they get free reign to hurt the campaign in whatever flippant way they want.

[Midnight77]

I hope Ron gives Tucker a pretty stern talking to. I can't believe Tucker is actually that immature to not realize that this would lead to negative publicity. So, did someone pay him to put him up to it?? Anxious to hear more of the story.

As far as the interview, again Ron came off very well and explained his way out of the Bunny Ranch Endorsement like a Pro.

That was pretty rude of what's her name to ask when he was going to throw in the towel, I agree. Ron took it well, though and Joe did step in and downplay it. I like Joe and he always seems to treat Ron with respect. He pokes fun at us, but he seems like he does it in good humor.

[Eric21ND]

I threw my cheetos at the tv when she said "throw in the towel". ahahahaa lady we're going to top our 12 million dollar 4th quarter goal...get a clue! We might be the #1 leader in money raised this quarter if Romney doesn't whip out his check book.

[MsDoodahs]

Agreed.

I don't agree with the prior poster who said Mica's producer made her ask that question, that smirk on her face is the reason why I think it was her decision to pose such an ignorant (and disrespectful) question.

I try not to watch Joe anymore, but until CNN gets a morning team that doesn't make me ill (that Karen Chitree and that guy, UGH, what a hideous pair!)....

[Goeran]

I couldn't imagine what was going through Ron's mind standing up there with some prostitutes. Poor guy.

Come on we are no hypocritical neocons. Prostitutes are not less valuable human beings and each person has a right to live their life however it pleases them.

[Eric21ND]

finally the response i wanted to hear about the internet from paul... ugh i cant stand to hear the words "has big support on the internet" makes us sound kinda strange... and of coarse howard dean is mentioned.... ehhh..

I agree I totally hate that phrase....it's like they have to down play Paul's support by relagating it to the internet. And then they don't quite understand why he's so popular on there either, it's the message. I'm glad Paul pointed that out.

[angelatc]

You can bet your paycheck Ron was somewhat angry. He is so traditional he won't be alone in a room with a women. Talk about a gentlemen. I couldn't imagine what was going through Ron's mind standing up there with some prostitutes. Poor guy.

I happen to think that Congressman Paul is probably more embarassed to be on the Hill with the neocons than in a photo op with a HBO mini-celebrity.

[angelatc]

So, are we all sending bumper stickers to the Morning Joe team or what? It sounded to me like a Paul call to action.

[IRO-bot]

Come on we are no hypocritical neocons. Prostitutes are not less valuable human beings and each person has a right to live their life however it pleases them.

I didn't make that comment because I think Ron thinks less of them, I made it in my belief that he is very traditional and being on stage with a bunch of scantily clad women would be embarassing to him.

I have no problem with them. I thought they were hot. *drools*

[Hope]

Come on we are no hypocritical neocons. Prostitutes are not less valuable human beings and each person has a right to live their life however it pleases them.

I don't think he was saying that prostitutes are any less human or that Ron Paul wouldn't support states' rights to legalize prostitution. Ron Paul is 72 years old and he's been married for fifty years -- it wouldn't surprise anyone if it made him uncomfortable to hang around bunch of prostitutes. Carol couldn't be there since she's had heart problems and was advised to stay home for a little while. How would you feel? How would you explain to your family why they saw a segment on Fox News that said their father/uncle/granddad was hanging out with prostitutes? If you can't understand how that'd unnerve him, I don't know what else to say.

Besides, we're talking about a man who is running for president. This is the kind of stuff that sinks campaigns.

[IRO-bot]

Probably.

[MsDoodahs]

I loved when Joe asked if his supporters were frustrated Republicans, and Ron said at the rally last night, he stayed and talked with any of the 400 supporters who came out to hear him speak, and he ASKED them what their political affiliation was...and that yes, many are frustrated Republicans, many are new and have never been involved in the political party process before, many consider themselves independent, some are Green party people, and some are democrats...

lol...

In other words, Joe, we have them ALL... because freedom unites us. :)

[MsDoodahs]

So, are we all sending bumper stickers to the Morning Joe team or what? It sounded to me like a Paul call to action.

Absolutely, I thought so, too.

Rather than spend money on the bumper stickers (where they are sure to be wasted), isn't there a downloadable "make your own bumper sticker" that we can send to that whole group?

Especially little willy ...

[kimosabi]

Youtube or it didn't happen, please....

[BuddyRey]

Woohoo!!! Great news! I hate I missed it!!!!

Anyone got the YouTube yet?

[MsDoodahs]

For those who didn't see it, Willy said something about bumper stickers and Ron said, "well, I hope my supporters don't flood you with bumper stickers" or something like that...

So...let's get on this...because angel's right - that was a Paul call to action. :)

Anyone know where there is a file for downloadable make your own bumper stickers file?

[Goeran]

Besides, we're talking about a man who is running for president. This is the kind of stuff that sinks campaigns.

The sad thing is that Rudy can marry 738 times, including a relative and the MSM doesn't care about it, but if some obscure pimp mentions Ron Paul they put it on the front page: "PIMP ENDORSES RON PAUL"

It's so funny how hypocritical those neocon-tools are.

This is one of the problems with living on the west coast. I missed it. I hope someone will YouTube it.

But they also mentioned the BLIMP.

[kylejack]

POST THE DAMN YOUTUBE.

(In honor of another poster who said this a while back and cracked me up :o )

[kylejack]

And the prostitute thing is good, in my opinion. It helps to encapsulate the whole message. According to Ron Paul, everyone's deserving of liberty, even a prostitute. While Ron Paul totally disagrees with the profession, he doesn't believe in using the arm of government to enforce on people's personal actions. This helps to sell the message (and particularly the drug war stance) to people who think drugs are bad.

[MsDoodahs]

So I can spend less than $50 and have 100 bumper stickers sent to little willy?

Nice.

Now...off to try and find the address to make sure they arrive safely. :)

You're absolutely right. Just keep spamming all the RPF threads and eventually, no one will participate in any discussion of interest because they don't want to be accused of not doing enough for the campaign. :rolleyes:

How many potential Ron Paul supporters just clicked their mice over to the Huckabee website?

I don't know. But If this is a Ron Paul sales tactic... It isn't a very good one. Please refrain from statements that you know will offend potential voters. Like " I wish one of you F-ing dumb ass Atheist pricks would post a youtube!" you see, that would not do well at garnering the atheist vote, now would it? ...yes, it may be funny at the moment, but not very good at getting votes.

just say something like this, "gosh, I wish the beav would hurry up and post the Youtube"...see how that doesn't offend any potential voter? Its easy.. really.. just give it a try.

Seems fantastic to me. Mika's question was fine, it was a good strawman to knock down.

HAHAHA, that was great, it's funny hearing RP voice the same concerns about Tucker most of us have

I was seriously laughing especially towards the end. If a lot of people who were watching this had the same reaction, now we have some positive feelings being associated with Dr. Paul.

HAHAHA, that was great, it's funny hearing RP voice the same concerns about Tucker most of us have

i din't like the tone of the girl though. i mean show some respect to a man like ron paul. its almost sinful to take a tone like that against such a good man

great interview, i think the brothel part didn't hurt and was quite funny

[BLS]

Mika and Willie are DEAD to me.

[deedles]

It was funny and seemed very good-natured except for the one stupid question by the woman. Nice interview and friendly. I was watching this from work :o, and one of our secretarys was sitting behind me. When he answered "we're for freedom of religion, not endorsing any one religion in particular" the secretary said... "that was a good answer, he seem really interesting". She has now left my office with several slim jims to look at. :D

[kylejack]

That was a setup question to allow Ron and Joe to point out that he's a legitimate candidate and dismiss the thought in the minds of the viewers that he has no chance. Its a play, and she's just playing her role in setting up the straw man. Notice how she spent the rest of the time abandoning that question and talking about how enthusiastic Ron's supporters are.

I actually expected RP to come out against prostitution more strongly, but now that I think about it, treating it like a joke is a much better strategy, if he even thought about it that much.

Yeah she got cut off, my guess is she was going to say he would never openly support prostitution. One thing that did annoy me was "Ron Paul Endorsed By Nevada Brothel Owner" or whatever at the bottom of the screen so much of the time. Stupid producers.

[kylejack]

Too late now...some DUMBASS quoted it.
What the hell? I didn't think it was that bad, but you're the one that posted it! Don't try and pin your comments on me. I supported you through the sign fiasco.

I'll edit.

[voytechs]

Finally got to see this, even though I had it recorded, couldn't find it:

Raw Story Video (http://rawstory.com/rawreplay/?p=138)

The funny thing is they set him up twice, Joe defended Dr. Paul each time and the second time they made fun of themselves for doing the setup. Also notice that they do keep in mind the wrath of supporters emails and bumper stickers they will get for dissing Dr. Paul. We're doing it people. Its working.

Overall I thought it was a very good interview. Really contrasted Dr. Paul's campaign against all the others and highlighted the fact that they aren't conservative enough. I think someone watching that interview will consider looking Dr. Paul up. So definetly a positive interview.

[user]

Willie kept referring to RP as "Dr. Paul", outside of his supporters most people don't call him that. Willie must be following us closely.

[BLS]

What the hell? I didn't think it was that bad, but you're the one that posted it! Don't try and pin your comments on me. I supported you through the sign fiasco.

Well, whatever the problem is these two cats can fix it:

Back on topic, I thought the interview was great. RP has a really good rapport with journalists (and everybody else too of course) where he answers questions as they're asked so you never get that hostile showdown kind of situation where you have a journalist trying to hammer out an answer from a politician that you know is just going to change the subject and stonewall until the time runs out.

And by the way, did everyone notice how casually Joe mentioned Dec. 16th would net another 4 or 5 million. They don't dare doubt us.

[Derek]

I thought the interview went great. It seems like Paul has a good rapport going with Joe, and I liked it when Joe basically told that woman off for asking Paul when he was going to throw in the towel. The conversation about the brothel isn't anything to be worried about either. Paul had a great answer to that.

Wow, I don't think I even noticed that, because most of the time it said RP was endorsed by a brothel owner so I stopped paying attention to it.

[TruckinMike]

That was great!

Even the Brothel bit! It made that joker that brought it up the bad guy, Not RP! And did you notice the close... "Dr." Ron Paul ...."not afraid to speak his mind"... "he's talking about limited government in a way that no other major candidate has since Ronald Reagan"

Yahoo!!! Keep it up!!! That was really good!

I posted that a few years ago on an MMA board entitled something like "Great fight footage!" No one was particularly happy with me afterwards.

I think Dr. Paul handled himself rather nicely with respect to the brothel owner question. If anything, it should've given most people a good chuckle.

I'm glad that lady asked Ron Paul when he was going to throw in the towel...I'm sure that's been on everyone's mind. :rolleyes:

Just another Thank You

I loved when RP said that the Revolution Campaign really doesn't reach-out to more than just about every concerned US citizen (paraphrasing)

Ron Paul has a great sense of humor that you just have to smile a big one :D or for the diehards do a serious LOL

Is the dark cloud of the MSM starting to mellow a bit due to our grassroots effort?

Maybe our votes will get them to open up even a bit more!

And by the way, did everyone notice how casually Joe mentioned Dec. 16th would net another 4 or 5 million. They don't dare doubt us.

Joe Scarborough LIKES Ron Paul! For all of the bashing of people in the media, he is one of the people that likes what Ron Paul says. Note how he has favorably compared his message to Ronald Reagan's several times now and mentioned how the other Republicans aren't "conservative" enough for a lot of Republicans. He may not like his foreign policy, but he loves his domestic policy. Joe Scarborough was a US congressman and very small government. From Wikipedia:

"Scarborough was one of a group of about 40 GOP freshmen legislators who dubbed themselves the "New Federalists" after the Federalist Papers. Scarborough was elected Political Director of the incoming legislators. The New Federalists called for sweeping cuts in the U.S. government, including plans to "privatize, localize, consolidate, [or] eliminate"[6] the Departments of Commerce, Education, Energy and Housing and Urban Development, but were largely unsuccessful in their goals. Gingrich tapped Scarborough to head a Republican task force on education, and Scarborough declared "Our goal is to get as much money, power and authority out of Washington and get as much money, power and authority into the classroom as possible."[2]"

Joe can't come out an endorse Ron Paul, but he sure has been friendly to him.

[1town]

I love Joe. Unlike many of these conservative pundits, he actually has a sense of humor. And he gives Ron Paul a fair showing.

[literatim]

Ron Paul clearly wasn't too happy about Tucker Carlson's stunt.

[DealzOnWheelz]

I think she was just doing her job trying to think of questions that non supporters would ask.


I think it was a great interview

[davidkachel]

I happen to think that Congressman Paul is probably more embarassed to be on the Hill with the neocons than in a photo op with a HBO mini-celebrity.

Oooh! Good answer...

'I was a bit embarrassed to be blind-sided by people intent on taking my picture with prostitutes, but given the choice, that is preferable to having my picture taken with many members of Congress!'

Oh I know, but even those who like RP's policies have been skeptical about the fundraising in the past. If Joe can say "4, 5 million" without even thinking about it, I'd say this has become a mainstream position by now.

[ThePieSwindler]

I hate all this question about "oh how do you use the internet tell us how you were able to get the internet behind you and will it translate to the real work?" EARTH TO THE MSM - REAL WORLD PEOPLE USE THE INTERNET. We use it to communicate because it is free and not controlled like the mainstream media. I love how the medialikes to act like they are just going about their business and are "surprised" that Ron Paul is doing well. No, they know very well he is popular and his support IS the only REAL WORLD grassroots of any campaign in this race! He is the only one so far whos support is guaranteed to translate to votes - the question is not will it translate, but will what we have in full force be enough? Yet the MSM keeps continually harping on these lies and misleading the public into believing that Ron Paul is still "only" on the internet and that his supporters won't show uip for the polls. They of course soundly ignore the dozens of straw polls ron paul dominated. Its becoming like clockwork, the way the media sets up their own spin on every development. Joe seems somewhat sympathetic, but he is still misled and perpetuates a false dynamic of the campaign. This campaign is THE premier grassroots campaign of the election, not just some "internet support".

Then of course that little mika bitch "at what point do you throw in the towel". Bah. To hell with em. But am i going to sit here on my ass and complain all day - hell no! Time to get out and post some flyers around campus and talk to people about ron paul. Peace. And F the MSM.

I thought the dork that brought up the Tucker thing was a dick. So condescending and disrespectful. I pray for the day when they have to call him Mr. President.

[Spirit of '76]

"gosh, I wish the beav would hurry up and post the Youtube"...

Speaking of The Beaver... Mika is a naughty girl. I volunteer to give her a spanking.

[Question_Authority]

Uhhh...OK, I just finally got to see the entire interview on youtube. It was CRAP! Oh, yeah, it was fun and funny and all, but all they talked about was CAMPAIGNING and whether internet votes would translate, blah blah blah. I call it "SPECULATIVE JOURNALISM" and I am so damn sick of it!

Dr Paul needs to start taking control of these interviews and pumping out MESSAGE at every turn, and if he does get a "low polling numbers" question, he needs to debunk the polls immediately, letting everyone know that those polls are only polling a small sliver of the broad support he enjoys ("likely republican voters"). He did kinda touch on his types of supporters a little later but did not connect it to the faulty polls.

He also needs to be more assertive when he is asked a "throw in the towel" question. The answer, I am sorry to say, was lame and over-explained. He should have said something more along the lines of "That's the furthest thing from our minds...we are on the upswing and just drew 5000 people to a Philly rally, why would you ask me that question?"

Right now, every second of airtime counts and that interview was a waste of time. I also wish he had been much more assertive about Tucker and explained that the pimp thing was all Tucker's idea and that he was blind-sided.

Blech.

[austin356]

This was not a bad interview people.

Any interview that ends with "Ron Paul is the only one who talked this way since Ronald Reagan" is not bad!!!!

I actually liked it and thought it was funny. People want to "be lightened up" sometimes. If you laugh (positively like in this interview) you have subconscious positive associations with Ron Paul.

The people who did not have the inside scoop on what they were talking about were not laughing. They were probably puzzled. And certainly this interview did not send thousands of people scrambling to the internet to find out more about Dr Paul.

Waste of time.

Mika's question actually actually made me feel better about some of these anchors. You could tell as she asked it that she was uncomfortable asking it, and she was obviously embarrassed about it afterwards. So it was definitely a question her producers told her to ask. I just wish these anchors could get a clue and realize that they're being used to subvert our entire democracy.

I thought it was an excellent interview also. And yes, they are softening. He has even gotten traction on the Stephanopolis show.

I thought it was pretty fair and funny. They let him joke about the fact that the bunny ranch supports him. I wonder what producer made that woman ask Ron Paul when he was going to quit. That seem WAY out of place.

It was weird, I had just read an internet article by Faux News where they were tickled PINK to report on the pimp (Headline: Guess who's supporting Ron Paul? La-la-la-laaaa-laaaa)

Anyway, I clicked on the TV just to see if any news channel was talking about it and I heard Ron Paul's voice! And they were talking about the pimp. So weird.

I really do hope the campaign is having a meeting about Tucker today. And I hope they give a good talking-to to Tucker. RP sounded none too happy with his antics.

Gotta hate the Tucker. (Seinfeld reference....did anyone get that?)

I liked the interview! Dr. Paul got in a few good lines. It seemed like they were all having a good time! Joe got in a few nice words again about Ron Paul at the end there. The questions asked by Willie and Mika weren't the greatest, but what are you gonna do? People have been complaining on here that he doesn't do any interviews, and then when he does they complain about the interview. I, on the other hand, back Ron Paul 100% in whatever he thinks is best.

Notice how much Ron Paul supports the Tea Party. He's not there saying "I hope they don't hold the money, they need to give it now."

I don't know about everyone else, but I'll take his word before the staff's. I'm donating on the 30th but the Tea Party 07 is getting the bulk of it.

[Knightskye]

Ron mentioned the 16th. "We'll be looking forward to it." He's looking forward to it!

Something else he said - "We didn't plan on getting this much money." Is there a disconnect between Ron Paul and Johnathan Bydlak? Seriously. Ron says they didn't anticipate getting this much money, Bydlak says they need more and waiting till next month (16th) will be too late.

There should be a positive e-mail bombing out of Scarborough over this one for treating Ron with some respect. He should know that everytime he has Ron on his show the viewership will go through the roof. We shouldn't just attack the bad guys, we should be giveing positive support to our freinds as well and encourage them to do it more by knowing that it will increase their viewership and possible sponsorships. I'v always liked Joe we should let him know he's the man for this one.

Yes, definitely. If anyone actually takes the time to report on Ron Paul in a responsible and factual manner, they deserve to be commended for it. And with some luck, it'll soften the image that the MSM tries to saddle us with of being "cyber-bullies" if we send positive e-mails for good stories, instead of just the counter-attacks for the bad pieces.
