Another Ron Paul blowout .. And Bill O'Rielly's trolley jumps the track !
Well he did it again !

Ron Paul's performance last night on the Fox (in the hen house) debate resulted on a total blowout for him according to MSNBC's latest poll.

Now before you start screaming that all his supporters are flooding the polls and tilting the tables, lets examine that argument.

While it may seem to have merit on the face of it, if you accept that premise, then what you are saying (in effect) is that ALL the other candidates, and ALL of their staffs, and ALL of their supporters, are either too stupid, or too lazy to log in and make their presence felt.

Now given that many, if not most of them are much more well financed and have considerably larger staffs and tons of volunteers at their disposal, how do you account for the fact that only Congressman Paul's numbers are so far ahead of the pack?
Have the main stream media somehow 'stacked the poll' in his favor ? Hardly ! It took the impact of the people's wrath to even get him included in the polls to start with!

Are his supporters somehow more intelligent or tech savvy then those of the other candidates? Well much as I would like to think so, the truth of the matter is that voting in the MSNBC poll is not rocket science, hell even my mother could do it !

No I'm sorry, I just can't accept all the lame arguments about Mr. Paul's clear and decisive lead in the 'people's poll'. However I would like to offer another possibility which may just account for the unexpected lead that Ron Paul has demonstrated in the past two polls now.

Maybe, just maybe, the people watching the debates were not as brain dead as the political machines thought they were, and were able to tell the difference between a bunch of tired old political re-treads and hacks parroting the same old lines they were fed by their handlers, and a man with a clear vision of what is wrong with this country, and maybe, just maybe, they thought Dr. Paul has the right prescription to treat this country's ills !

Now there's a concept that probably scares the living you know what out of these 'Elites' that decide who will and who wont run this country.

Democracy ! Whatta concept ! America ! Whatta Country !



And speaking of the media Elites ...

Well folks, it looks like the progressive brain disease obviously affecting Bill O'Rielly must be entering into the final terminal stages !

In the video below, O'Rielly cuts off a very polite caller and threatens that caller for 'mentioning' Keith Olberman's name and instructs anyone calling into his show that "We have your phone number and it will be turned over to Fox security and it will be sent to the local police and you will be receiving a visit from them."

Now bear in mind that this guy hadn't said anything even remotely 'offensive' or 'threatening' and yet I suppose that anything he doesn't like is grounds for turning the gestapo loose on you.


It kinda makes me wonder .. Are you sure O'Rielly isn't Bush's long lost brother ?
