I was very disappointed in the treatment of Ron Paul at last night’s FOX debate by the panel of questioners. He was treated with disrespect and I think it undermined FOX’s credibility in this presidential race. He was the only candidate where you could hear the contempt in the voice of the person asking the question. I have to say; it was disturbing.
I wish Ron Paul had a different outlook on foreign policy, because when I review many of his positions, he is right on target. He is on target with reduced size of government, scope of government, states’ rights, second amendment, and veteran care, strong support for military bases in this country, and a strong border security, and immigration policy. He is a sitting congressman and deserves respect, just like every other candidate on that stage.
I actually listened closer to Ron Paul because I was so irritated by his treatment from the panel. And if I had to go into a voting booth and only had the choice of Huckabee or Paul, I would choose Paul.
He has an air that he is a bit scattered and unstable, but I think that is because he gets such limited time in front of the media, so when he does, he has to hit all of his key issues. So I’m not sure anymore how “crazy” he is. I have to say, having run for office, and with a plan to run again as an underdog, I empathize with Paul’s situation. I would expect better of FOX and especially the panel that I have always had respect for until last night. They should probably apologize to Paul for their behavior. Just a thought…
True knowledge of American history is necessary to insure the future of the America we love… This is an important time in our country's history. We must be wise and measured as we choose our leaders going forward.

Time Magazine Makes a Huge Mistake!
To designate Vladimir Putin as man of the year over General Petraeus, is an indication of how far out of touch the mainstream media is with the values of our country. They chose him because he brought “stability and renewed impact” to Russia. I guess a good dictator that instills “stability” through murder, terror, and intimidation is more deserving than a man that is offering hope, freedom, and democracy to a country just liberated from a murderous dictator. Ah! The good old days. If only we had more dictators to instill stability.
If only we could have the same stability here. That damn democracy thing is just standing in the way of a stable world. If only Vladimir would change his address to live in say, San Francisco, he could help us implement stability here in the good old US of A. How I long for a day when we no longer have to worry about speaking out against evil because in stable countries, you’re not allowed to do so. Some day maybe we too could have a man of the year like Vladimir.
I haven’t bought a Time magazine in I can’t remember how long. But I can tell you this; I never will again… Pathetic and disgusting is what it is. They should be shut down! Wait that only happens in “stable” countries, for now we are still a democracy; Thank GOD!

O’Reilly Uses Kid Gloves with Racist Sharpton…
Al Sharpton is a racist. He is the textbook definition of how a true racist sees the world. Al Sharpton takes every opportunity to define every issue through racial glasses. Bill O’Reilly is not stupid but he gave him a huge pass the other night on his show, and actually legitimized the views of the anti white, anti Semitic “minister”.
He had Sharpton on as his guest to discuss Don Imus’ return to radio after being run off the air by the likes of Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. Everyone knows the incident and Imus apologized a gazillion times for remarks that were inappropriate, not unusual for him, but directed toward the Rutgers’s woman’s basketball team who did not deserve the comment made about them. Imus has been an idiot in my eyes well before this incident. But what irked me was the hypocrisy and double standard when talking about Al Sharpton’s legitimacy in this debate.
Sharpton has a history of enflamed rhetoric against the police, usually white police, and he is on the record with anti white rhetoric in many of his “speeches”, and he was responsible for the racial tensions of the Tawana Brawley case. He accused 6 white men, some of them police officers with the rape of a black woman that was later revealed as a hoax.
In 1991 he incited a riot by claiming a Jewish man was responsible for killing a black kid in Harlem purposely when it was an accident. An innocent Hasidic Jew walking by the “protest” was stabbed to death because of Sharpton’s actions.
In 1995 Sharpton accused another Jewish man of raising the rent on a black tenant to “allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business." Because of Sharpton’s rhetoric and action “ On Dec. 8, one of the protesters bursts into Freddy's, shoots four employees point-blank, then sets the store on fire. Seven employees die in the inferno.”
And the list goes on. It is long and ugly. He is to the black race what the Klu Klux Klan is to the white race, only given credibility. And that’s where my outrage comes in toward O’Reilly. O’Reilly said to Sharpton about the Imus issue” you just want to let the media know where the line of decency is with the Imus situation, that’s a legitimate message and I agree with you”. (These words are not verbatim but really, really close)
So here we have the highest profile racist, on the highest rated program on cable, being given a free pass and credibility as a spokesman for all black people. God help us is all I can say. This man is vile and poisonous to our country. He lives in the past and he thrives on division. He should not have a stage; he should be in a cell. O’Reilly blew it big time…
