Ron Paul booed twice at Florida Republican Presidential ‘debate’

Did you get an opportunity to view the Florida Republican Presidential debacle…err…I mean ‘debate’. I caught most of it, but frankly only because I felt duty bound to post same herein. Only the principle American media would dignify these 30 second sound bites by the candidates as a debate. That alone is laughable. The format is totally unrealistic.
Yet, I did notice several things during the sound bites … err … ‘debate’.
1. Romney’s hair was mussed up! Is this a new look for Mr. Slick?
2. Hunter, or was it Huckabee (I get them mixed up), was trying out some humor for a change. Nice touch, but staged.
3. McCain can still elicit a standing applause when he mentions his ‘being tied up’ during the Vietnam War years. Obviously we appreciate his service, but he has morphed into a politician and lost his way.
4. Hillary was repeatedly the supposed candidate of the Democrats. Her sound bites and lack of experience were roundly made fun of, except for a quip by Huckabee. He said Hillary, as president, would be anything but funny. He’s right. Romney said Hillary had no experience. I disagree, she’s got ‘bimbo eruption control’ experience.
5. Thompson, when given the lines, makes a great president. In real life, he’s a soft drink without the carbonation…soda there but no fizz.
6. The war in Iraq was a repeated topic of the ‘debate’. All the candidates except Rep. Ron Paul, told us of the dire danger of the Islamofascists and how they were out to kill everyone of us. How we needed to fight this ‘war on global terror’. How we must, at all costs, not allow Iran to become nuclear. How we must continue to build our military-industrial complex and project our power around the globe in the name of humanity…oh yeah…and democracy. I felt that I was at one of Hitler’s rallies. The crowd loved it.
7. When Dr. Paul spoke of non-intervention, promoting trade, using the money saved from recalling our military for domestic purposes, and in general, what the hell are we doing with military in over 129 countries, he was roundly booed, on two separate occasions. This is in stark contrast with past debates. Interesting how 70 percent of the American public want us out of Iraq yet the other 30 percent were invited to the ‘debate’. What applause Dr. Paul engendered was more polite than energetic. The neo-conservatives, the North American Union, one world government, and police state people have a lot to lose if Dr. Paul is elected. Now that he’s got some publicity via his third quarter campaign contributions, expect more animosity from his opponents.
Now is the time to redouble our support for Rep. Ron Paul!
Ron Paul for President in 2008!
