Scroll all the wan down on the right side of the page. This is a shameless uncalled for attack on Ron Paul. I can't post the picture here and I don't know how long it will be on the Beck site, but I will post it it the other forum and post a link here.

No point in giving him hits.

We're better off ignoring it. He specifically wants hate mail so he can post it on his site. He doesn't have a good reason to dislike RP - di you see this?


GLENN: Jeff, I agree with Ron Paul 100% on that point. I will also go a step further. The man is at least consistent. The man has the courage of his convictions, which you can't say about 99% of the people in Washington. I can tell you also that I -- I firmly believe that Ron Paul's philosophy of -- of -- not Ron Paul's, but the Libertarian viewpoint is much closer to our Founding Fathers' than -- than anyone else. And I get that. And I think the Republicans and the Democrats are the same old crap. However, two things. Ron Paul, say whatever you want, Ron Paul is not the candidate. If you want to get a -- a candidate that would be viewed seriously by the American public, then you need to be able to get a guy who can answer with some conviction easy questions like, what have you done that has really affected a lot of people and not have him hem and haw about being a -- a doctor. He's -- he's just not a good candidate.

Talk about fishy....

So Glenn Beck agrees with everything Ron Paul is about but doesn't support him because.....he can't point to how he has brought home tons of pork for his district? How has what Ron Paul's been doing for 10 terms NOT supporting large numbers of people - like 300 million of them? He has singlehandedly been voting AGAINST every Congressional move that has gotten us into the huge messes we're in. He has been the LONE VOICE for peace and sound money. What more SHOULD a person be doing for the American people?

That's an utterly retarded claim. I used to like Glenn Beck alot, but his treatment of Ron Paul has exposed him as shallow, intractible, and not too bright.
