LOL. The things the MSM will say to smear any chance for liberty... http://www.infowars.com/pundit-if-ron-paul-wins-iowa-we-just-take-it-out/ Establishment petrified of Texan Congressman building momentum for future primaries Paul Joseph Watson Infowars.com Friday, December 23, 2011 According to Politicos chief columnist Roger Simon, even if Ron Paul wins the crucial Iowa primary, the result will simply be ignored and the establishment media will instead concentrate on the order in which Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney finish. Simon tries to downplay the significance of Iowa by pointing out that exotic candidates have won in the past, yet fails to mention how two of the last three successful Republican nominees started the campaign trial with a win in Iowa. He then denigrates the importance of Augusts Ames straw poll, which is normally seen as a key barometer, simply because Paul almost won it. The medias not going to be blown away by a Paul win, states Simon. In other words, if Paul wins, the media will simply continue to ignore his existence in a desperate effort to prevent him from building the kind of momentum that would increase his chances of performing well in New Hampshire, Florida and subsequent primaries. If Ron Paul wins Iowa, we just take it out, remarks Simon. Being the status quo-worshipping, simpering establishment hack that he is, to be fair to Simon, he had resolved to completely ignore Ron Pauls campaign from the very outset, back when Paul was seen as a long shot to win Iowa. After Paul almost tied Bachmann for first in the Ames poll back in August, Simon brazenly admitted that the corporate press had decided to ignore Pauls campaign altogether. Simon said the reason for Paul being ignored was that the media doesnt believe he has a hoot in hells chance of winning the Iowa caucuses, the Republican nomination or winning the presidency, so were gonna ignore him. CNN host Howard Kurtz responded by shamelessly announcing that, We are in the business of kicking candidates out of the race. At the time, Bachmanns performance was heralded as an indication that she could challenge for the nomination, and she was endlessly lauded by the establishment media. Bachmann now trails Paul by a substantial margin. SImons rhetoric mirrors that of Iowa Governor Terry Branstad, who rhetorically sabotaged the legitimacy of his own states poll by encouraging people, in the event of a Paul victory, to ignore the will of the voters and instead concentrate on who comes second and third. People are going to look at who comes in second and who comes in third, said Branstad, adding, If [Mitt] Romney comes in a strong second, it definitely helps him going into New Hampshire and the other states, comments taken to mean that Republicans should ignore Ron Paul, according to Politicos Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=VgXKFGdf03c
The status quo got us into this mess. The more the status quo ignores, attacks, and dismisses Paul, the more people will flock to him as their choice. Everything is going according to plan.
I tried to give you rep points for this, but "i need to spread it around more, before adding to this users rep, again"
I believe the governor of Iowa, Terry Branstad said something similar. He said that if Ron Paul wins Iowa, then people will look at whoever comes in 2nd and 3rd.
Okay, so the establishment is desperately trying to discredit Iowa, because they know Ron Paul is gonna win. Whats next? They discredit NH? The same establishment was raving about how an Iowa win usually leads to momentum in NH... Why is so different for Ron Paul? The People you refer to will wake up when they see the discretization of a Ron Paul Iowa win. That is a HUGE red flag. So, in this case i say, Let them discredit Iowa. NH for that matter. Discredit the entire Election process and just hand the Nomination to Dr. Paul...
No problem,I gave it to him FOR you.well this will help you get back to him,do it for me.after all I have been posting on SEVERAL of your ron paul threads echoing your thoughts.
Im afraid you are right but thats because the lamestream media is a tool for the government and they are the ones that SELECT and put our candidates in office,we dont.
Im calling myself for flaming here: You are a MORON and a sheep. You need to turn your TV off, and stop drooling on the keyboard. How many (*)(*)(*)(*)ing times are you going to repeat this (*)(*)(*)(*)? No body (*)(*)(*)(*)ing gives two (*)(*)(*)(*)s about the diarrhea that spews out of your mouth. Flame off. Be gentle mods.
If you believe everything that Watson/Simon write, then i've got a bridge i'd like to sell you. The MSM will not ignore a Ron Paul win in Iowa should it happen. It will get reported to the public. All three major televison networks will be covering the caucus and it would look pretty foolish not to report whoever wins does'nt it now??
I'm not in the market for bridges. I was just posting a report on how the foolish media will attempt to black a Ron Paul win out.
I wouldn't be surprised if they mentioned it once and then talked about whoever was in 2nd and 3rd place the rest of the time. Or instead of saying Ron Paul won they will talk about how Mitt Romney wasn't first. "This just in, Mitt Romney comes in 2nd with Newt Gingrich trailing in third."
If Ron Paul wins, the networks will report that he won; will they constantly have him in focus? probably not. But eitherway if he wins, the networks will disclose to the public that he won.
Im not believing it till I see it. The Media has a reputation of Blacking Out anything that Ron Paul wins.
I predict it will be a lot like this article. http://news.yahoo.com/romney-machine-rights-ship-gingrich-bump-223430292.html All about Romney, one sentence mentioning Paul who is ahead of him.
LOL. You types crack me up. How on earth are you going to keep selling ice to Eskimos using the same sales pitch? No one is going to keep voting in the status quo orchestrating our demise. Even the slowest of Americans have to realize at this point the current economic climate is by design. What is going to be the slogan of the globalists this time? "This time around we will really try!! Vote mainstream! We promise!"
For the sake of the debate; lets say your right; most conservatives don't watch/read/listen to mainstream media anyhow; they are all gonna be focused on Fox or the conservative radio talk stations, so what's the big deal? The MSM will report he won in a sentence or two and leave the rest up to Fox. Besides Fox touts itself as fair and balanced anyhow, so what would conservatives want to watch anything else but Fox? I think thats a reasonable explanation.
I'm not saying you are wrong but it just makes me wonder. At what point will the media stop trying to ignore Paul if ever? I mean it seems like he could be winning with 99% of the votes and the media would still try to ignore him.
What is crazy is there is no more blatant proof of conspiracy in history. To save face, and not expose how truly corrupt our entire system is, you would think they would start acknowledging his popularity.
If he becomes the Republican Candidate they won't be able to ignore him at all. Prior to that, your guess is as good as mine. But think about it; liberals mostly watch MSM, Conservatives watch Fox; most liberals could care less about Ron Paul; most Conservative are interested in Ron Paul. So it would make sense for Fox to give extensive coverage to Ron Paul since that's their audience. MSM on the other hand won't give as much coverage as Fox because most of their audience could care less. At least until the conventions are over and the candidate is selected.
CBS = Viacom NBC = Comcast ABC = Disney Fox = The News Corporation CNN = Time-Warner If there's any others, I am not sure who owns them.
