So 40 calls, 1 dope made a threat.
Run for the hills! ALL Paul supporters and Paul himself must be nuts.
Let the pile on begin!

Well, tbh, I kind of found this harmless. It almost seemed like they performed something of a freep. What got my attention was watching them mob and stalk the talk show host while shouting "intellectual" soundbites about how he "sucks".

What really scares me about Ron Paul is the extremists and truther morons that he's deliberately trying to flatter and win over. He goes on their shows to woo their audiences with his "America is Evil" platform and he's acquiring a lot of followers from this mindset.

I'm not saying that he's some evil genius, though, because he doesn't really seem to be very intelligent at all. Check out the last debate where he makes this wild assertion about the other folks' stance and then, when corrected, says he didn't actually hear what they said.

He's the perfect candidate for supremacists and truthers who refuse to let loose of their prejudices and conspiracies regardless of the available facts.

“I’m not saying that he’s some evil genius, though, because he doesn’t really seem to be very intelligent at all. Check out the last debate where he makes this wild assertion about the other folks’ stance and then, when corrected, says he didn’t actually hear what they said.”

What a load of BS.

Huckabee threatened to send them to the ‘gates of hell’

Another candidate said they’d meet their 72 virgins.

Paul said, we don’t know who made the radio broadcast.

Guess what? The Pentagon the day later said it wasn’t the Iranian ships who made the broadcast - it was the Phillipino Monkey, a short-wave geek who harasses ships in the Gulf.

Other candidates made comments during the debate, that they didn’t hear that, btw.

Fox can’t even get audio mix to debate participants right? They are too busy reporting on car chases, natalie holloway, and britney spears.

If you actually give a darn about the facts or the truth,you are the one who should check out the last debate. It seems that so many are so eager to ridicule and denigrate Ron Paul they don't even hear what he says,or even what the question Brit posed was.

If you listen, Bret Hume subtly changed the question given to the others and then used his own (Humes) deception for a "gotcha" moment. I lost much respect for Brit with that little machination.

For any one interested,Bret's question to Paul was "What if this happens again?" Paul was attempting to answer that question and said that he would be less likely to jump into something with Iran than the other debaters. (I believe,the answer before the slight change in the question was given by Huckabee and ended with Iran should be warned if it happened again that they (Iran) should be prepared to see the "Gates of Hell".)

Thompson said something to the effect that they (Iranians) should be prepared to meet the virgins.

Granted they all said the commander made the right decision to withhold fire but the question to Paul was not whether or not the commander made the right decision,the question to him and I repeat was "What if this happens again?" No wonder he appeared confused.

If you listen,you will hear and if you are fair,you cannot deny that some chicanery was involved in that exchange. When they panned the faces of the other candidates and showed their smug,arrogant and condescending smirks I came much closer to deciding Ron Paul was the candidate I would support. I think something he is saying must be scary to the persons who seem quite determined to preselect our choices for President of the United States of America.
