Seriously. :mad:

You're hurting us here. People in this state read his blog, and he is censoring reasonable comments from those of us in-state who support Ron Paul while allowing angry, smart-aleck, and obscene posts from out-of-staters through.

Then he's using that as "evidence" that we're a bunch of "kooks" and creeps.

Please stop. You're doing much more harm than good.

I saw your post it was good. I saw some others not so good :(

Thanks.

There's a new one up about yesterday's post.

Here's my response that he did NOT allow through:


Senator,

First of all, let me apologize for the handful of overzealous Ron Paul supporters who employed profanity to make their points yesterday. I assure you that we know they do us no credit.

However, I am saddened to see that once again you have resorted to ad hominem attacks and mischaracterizations of the Congressman's positions instead of offering any sort of cogent argument against his stance. If you can offer something more substantial in the way of criticism than calling the Congressman and those of us who support him nasty names and mischaracterizing his position on the Iraq war as "surrender", I'd love to hear it. Until then, you seem to be talking without saying anything.

Furthermore, you have completely (and clearly intentionally) glossed over the poll results that contradict your earlier statement that the Congressman is polling at 2%. Why did you choose pollster as the only example here, when plenty of other legitimate polls results were explained to you yesterday?

After all, even John Zogby himself went on Hannity and said he expects Paul to take around 18% of the vote in New Hampshire, and as I mentioned to Tommy Phillips and the other good people at the Harrison County Republican Club meeting last week, I believe he truly underestimates us.

Like you, I encourage the readers to go back and review yesterday's comments, especially the posts by other good WV Republicans like Victor Zill. But unlike you, I encourage them to read them -- really read them -- not just "scan" them. There is a wealth of information contained there. Sure there are three or four over-the-top posts, but more importantly there are lots of facts, lots of data, and if nothing else lots of evidence that America is truly sick and tired of the status quo.

The GOP can either pay attention and cash in on this sentiment, or it can nominate another big government RINO like Giuliani or Romney and then watch in horror as Hillary takes the election and dooms us to years of inept, corrupt socialist rule.

By the way, if you check your advertising revenue from yesterday, you may reconsider disallowing comments from Ron Paul supporters after this post. You may just discover what many other neoconservative pundits have realized -- by trash-talking Congressman Paul, you can make money on the Internet.

Thanks for considering my words here and for offering your thoughts, though I wish you'd reconsider your methods and try to offer some real, substantial criticism of the Congressman's positions instead of cheap shots and name-calling.

~~~~~~

To Tommy:

It's good to see you here. I hope you're right that the patriotic, freedom loving Americans you call "RPP" will never stop, even after the election is over. And I also ask that God helps us -- I pray for it every night. Now more than ever we need God's help to take back our country and to restore the Republic that we have squandered.




~~~~~~

To Charles,

I honestly cannot understand how people can refer to Congressman Paul's supporters as "conspiracy theorists", and then listen seriously to people who say that the socialist George Soros is funding the campaign of the Republican candidate who has the longest and most consistent record of working to dismantle big government.

If you're looking for the truth about who the power brokers are in this election season, you'd do better to ask why Rupert Murdoch, the owner of Fox News, has hosted fundraisers for Hillary Clinton.


Here's the kind of stuff he's letting through:

wesome! Ron Paul will not win cause you say he won’t and you guys are the Party!

Oh wait a minute then who am I? Oh just some American who wants what’s best for my country.

Just an FYI, to be a member of the party I think for the most part all you have to do is check a little box. Oh and in quite a few of the larger states, like Texas, we don’t care what party you affiliate yourself with.

Parties are for crybabies and losers, enjoy your party, we’ll take the nomination and then the presidency.

See how this is not working in our favor?

Now, if my comments aren't up by this afternoon, I'm hitting the editorial desks at the local papers with this, but for now we just need people to leave well enough alone.

I'm going to be Satan Claus for a minute (and waste my 1776th post).

I have created my shit list for next year already, but until now only had a few people on it.

So...my shit list is as follows:

1. George Snuffleupagus (do I need to say why?)
2. Sean Hannity
3. Bill O'Reilly
4. This douchebag from WV.

PS - The list has no boundaries. I'm only keeping it in order to remind myself who to CALL when RP wins the Republican Nomination so I can make them cry on the phone.

Oh that is an awesome idea!

We should create a list of politicians, new personalities, or anyone else that has been violent towards Ron Paul. Then, we will know who not to vote/do anything for in the future.

like a directory that everyone can access and view the names...

Write your editor about it, not us... If he's misrepresenting decent Republicans, it seems to me that you should be taking it up with the locals.

As I've said, I will be writing the editors of local papers.

In the mean time, we need people here to stop giving him ammunition.

I was about to just post that too... :p

Seriously, it's already been shown that Ron Paul gets a bad rap not so much because of him personally, but because the large amount of radical supporters out there. Please learn about decorum!

Flame your adversary and then claim they are the ones flaming, priceless. I mean look at what he called Dr. Paul's foreign policy posistion. It was a personal attack Dr. Paul and on us. Hopefully, the good people of West Virginia aren't going to fall for this.

Last I checked, Dr. Paul served in military. This state senator hasn't and he certainly looks like he is of the age of where he could be serving since our liberty is being attacked.

It's really hard for the vast majority of people not to personally attack when they are attacked first. If this man would have simply wrote that he didn't agree with Paul's foreign policy in a respectful way, the post would be much more respectful. Of course, he is happy at the response he is getting.

BTW, I ran into the gentleman who posted about the federalist society on there. He is a great guy. Dr. Paul had a good group of supporters at the student gathering of the federalist society this last year.
