From the CNN transcript:

http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/11/28/debate.transcript.part2/index.html

"....
It's up to you to spread this message around this country. This is an American cause, it's a cause of freedom. There's something going on in this country, and it stinks. It really stinks.

..."

Judge for yourself:

1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPjTAH8Y_L8
2) Consider that the ad is titled "Something Big"

**********
CORRECTION
**********
Two times, "stinks" should be "big"


******
ACTION
******
Politely let them know
404-827-1500

Again, politely.

Wow, I read the transcript this morning, and that part had caught me off guard. I kinda did the "Wait... Ron Paul wouldn't say that... would he?" thing, and I thought maybe he had misspoke. I'm glad to here that was just a bad transcript. But this really needs to be addressed, Ron Paul knows enough to highlight optimism as opposed to negativity and this is completely counter to that.

It was part of the Ron Paul 30 second video they showed that was titled "Something Big", not something Dr. Paul said.

I know a 9-year-old kid learning English here in Korea that would have transcribed that right.

I think that is a good plan too, im sure it will take a while to get fixed with a call, im sure it has to go through 10 people and all...so others will have time to catch it if they need it.
