and other Republicans viewed him as a threat. Fox News certainly treated him like a joke.

I am **CONVINCED** that Fox News is part of the leftist "controlled opposition". That they treat Ron Paul and his ideas as some sort "joke" and that his supporters are "nutz" is all part of the carefully scripted plan.

For me the epiphany came with Fox's complete blackout on news regarding Obama's eligibility. They have for years consistently refused to report on homosexual outrage stories. If the only access to news were Fox conservatives would still believe that homosexuals are the warm and fuzzy characters seen in TV sit-coms.

Now Fox is continually reporting 24/7 on how the health care bill is a slam dunk. This is absolutely certain to demoralize the opposition to this massive take over of the economy and our freedom.

So?...Why are we surprised that Fox treats Ron Paul as a joke and his supporters as nutty Don Quiote wanna-bees?

We should also be very wary of the Clear Channel guys: Rush, Beck, Hannity...etc. They do a good job of ignoring important issues too.

You may be on to something about FOX.

Neil Cavuto seemed to be the only one that gave/gives Paul respect when interviewing him on monetary issues.

Be willing to bet if a real conservative, no BS, news station started up, it would clean FOX’s clock just like FOX is doing to CNN, MSNBC and the rest of the BS networks.

Whatever our agreements on other matters, the reason why Fox News and normal conservatives treat Ron Paul as some sort of joke is because he IS some sort of joke and his supporters are treated as “nutz” because it is the most charitable description of people who would support the dishonest treason weasel. Neville Chamberlain, Axis Sally, Tokyo Rose, Ezra Pound and their ilk are dead and they are not coming back as paleoPaulie whatever Paulie may hallucinate.
