-- ROMNEY'S 2012 PLAN CUTS MEDICARE--Ron Paul’s plan cuts $1 trillion the first year & balances the budget in 3 years. The plan cuts spending by ending the costly foreign wars, and cuts foreign welfare, corporate welfare, and overgrown federal bureaucracy. These cuts are made so that those who are dependent on domestic spending programs such as Medicare aren’t endangered through a sudden change in benefits. Romney’s plan cuts Medicare, on which many elderly Americans rely.
Governor Mitt Romney is a RINO. He supports stringent gun laws. His Health care overhaul pales in comparison to the atrocity of Obamacare, but it was similar. He has never expressed public regret for this. He told Michigan residents at an event there that the financial services bailout was absolutely necessary. He stated you said that the Republican Party needs to pass "immigration reform" (amnesty) in order to attract new voters. He’d vote for Obama! watch?v=jPGnJmbDq08
@RonPaulvsTyranny You either know you purposefully took him out of context or you're an idiot, you've painted a pretty clear picture of that. Asshole.
@langtangticky the question was: why not tell the voters of Florida and across the country how much of your own wealth you're spending so they can make a judgement and factor that in their own decisions? Well I'm not concerned about the voters (knowing how much I'm spending) I'm more concerned with the other guys on stage (trying to use that info against me) If he meant anything else it would not fit into the context of the question (Copied from ClearyPsychotic's comment)
"kenfo0 (5 months ago). nice try q*eer. need 2 accts to handle the bashing ... ur such a f*g, ur such an *sshole, go comment on someone else's videos"
kenfo0 (1 week ago) HAHAHAHA...you euro-q*eer! I said YOU have an STD. Did your scumbag, libtard, socialist, degenerate parents FORGET to have an abortion, or did it just go horribly wrong?
So, kenfo0.. it's obvious.. your comments to people who you disagree with are so foul that youtube's filter wouldn't even let me repost them all here..
so, as I said.. you are a close minded bigot, and have been exposed as not only an "highly educated moron" but a complete bigoted prick that holds animosty torwards those who are different than you or think differently than you..
SO, AS I SAID.. YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.. the world doesn't need people like you anymore.. there are enough
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Nice try, you pathetic loser. This magical filter let you write "prick" just fine, didn't it? Hmmmm. You are a closed minded bigot, smear merchant, and uneducated, whiny coward. You prove it through your comments and actions. It would have been difficult for me to have done it better.
hmmmm...you are bigoted against heterosexual males. that's interesting. furhter, nothing you post is in context. lastly, boy....you said there was a filter, and yet I see several examples of your own writing "fuck/prick/etc" (hypocrite!) that your magic "filter" doesn't seem to catch....oh wait, I get it! You are simply a liar, as I originally stated! HAHAHAHA....keep em coming boy!
LOL! This could in no way be termed "bigoted". HAHAHAHA...I love to expose you mentally unbalanced liars...to watch you come unglued and show your true, irrational, hateful colors!
LOL....You PROVE what I said about you. You attempt to smear, to lower others to your level with your spam. Nice try. Let's get back to your childish video in which you attempt to smear Romney with your childish, cheap theatrics, shall we, boy? Oh yeah: I am not homophobic. I am not afraid of homosexuals in any way. Another nice try at smear and lying....standard fare for you. Oh yeah, aren't you the Ron Paul supporter? Guess these are his values too?
I didn't lie about anything.. I mearly quoted your comments from other videos. They speak for themselves.. you can LOL all you want. It doesn't change what you said..
Seriously, I haven't time to waste with someone like you.. feel free to continue to post as much drivel as you need to to make yourself feel greater than. Come to whatever conclusion puts you on top, and we can just end this here. Ur previous comments show you will just keep getting more and more insulting. Thanks for watching!
of course you did, childish, lying smear-merchant....just like I said from the outset. You "haven't time to waste"??? HAHAHA..you already did that. Your attempt to sound magnanimous and educated have fallen flat. I have outed you, you childish, lying smearing coward (yes). You can't even deal with the English language properly, boy! I don't "feel greater"...I am...in terms of honesty and intellect and factuality. You, like all idiots, mistake "created equal" for "end up equal". DOPE.
childish exercise. people like the poster of this vid are what keeps politics and political debate from being as important as they should be. chris matthews asked a non-question, romney gave a correct response "as reqd by law on this date you will know". If someone wants to ask a REAL funding question, it is "why would anyone spend $100M to get a $400k/yr job?". That is where one starts to think about what is going on.
it's real easy to point your finger and say "that's the problem right there..: blah blah blah.." perhaps the real problem is people like you.. who generalize and lump single people into huge groups that are totally unrelated. it's group think mentality at it's finest. collectivist drivel. so spare me the usless finger pointing.. it solves nothing.
No, the problem is not me at all. I am highly educated. If someone asks a question to which I don't know the answer, I say "I don't know" or "I'll find out". It is rare that I have to, but it happens. YOU are the problem, because of your childish, partisan parsing of words and silly video effects for dramatic intent which distort reality. Most of your post is rambling. You should get that under control. Good luck!
you have failed to show what I can't follow, you clown. what you did is no different than what any dim-witted politico does: take a snippet, frame it out of context, repeat it over and over, especially with some childish sound/video effect. It does nothing to help the political process. It turns the process into a childish, corrupt process that does not serve the people. Grow up.
The funny thing is you accuse ME, a 30 year old of turning the process into a childish exercise, when hello, I was born into this system. Politics have been following this path for a lot longer than I or even you have been breathing.. to lay it all on my feet is to practice intellecutual dishonestly. Sure, it's easy to point your finger and blame someone, but all you are doing is complaining.
Mitt Romney dodged an important question here. A rich man trying to buy an election. Imagine that..
HAHAHAHA....here we go! Now you are not the guy posting a childish, out-of-context, political hack video; you are the poor victim! LOL. You are no different than the crack dealer on the corner; "they" made me do it. People have been dealing drugs longer than we've been alive so it's not MY fault. Yeah, fighting for "freedom". Shove off nancy. Stop spamming.
I have degrees in both science and technology. How about you, kid? Ooops! Never got around to paying attn in school, huh? Figured you could just fake your way through life. It shows in your childish, immature antics.
Oh, I see. we have one of those guys who like to come on youtube, downgrade and criticize people, and then boast about how "highly educated" he is.
Look, we both know that this little tirade that you are going on isn't about this video. it's simply an opportunity for you to toot your own horn and claim how superior you are to others who you disagree with.
In my opinion. people like you are the problem because you can't see past your own Pinocchio nose.
Oh, I see, you post a childish video that degrades the political process while thinking your are fighting for 'freedom'. I note that your response doesn't refute my assessment of your life; because it is correct. Pinocchio is a children's tale; how apt that you need to reference it. Dime a dozen? LOL. I can't be bought at any price, boy. Move along you uneducated, anti-freedom disgrace.
I don't have to "refute your assement of my life" because I have already searched youtube and found MANY MANY comments where you are using the same tone with other people.. downgrading and criticizing.
It's also funny that you would call me anti freedom, because you are the one pushing your fascist way of thinking on me.. I didn't push this video on you.. you viewed it on your on. you are free to critcize, but don't tell me I am anti freedom, because I haven't told u not to do anything.
Hey cry-baby, cry me a river. The crack dealer who isn't at fault because other people do it too! You are the fascist, you scumbag. You distort the truth and subvert democracy. You are a spammer....you are posting 5-1 in a pathetic attempt to shout me down. It speaks VOLUMES about you and YOUR worth. I simply pointed out the truth: you purposefully distort reality and play childish games w/a deadly serious subject. You prattle about freedom; what? the freedom to lie? Coward.
Again, I could post 50 messages from you to others on youtube saying the same crap, and it speaks volumes about the kind of person you are.. you don't even know what a fascist is obviously.
And don't come to my page and attack me, and then get all whiny about how you think I am spamming my own page.. I could just as easy block you.. if you don't like it.. there are other pages you can rant on.. you have already done it.. go do it some more.. no one here cares what you say.
face it. you think you are better than other people, and like to run around boasting about your own perceived self worth.
People who resort to those tactics are usually very angry and miserable people, so I have to wonder what the hell happened to you to make you so angry.
Some people feel empowered by venting their lifes frustration on youtube. I understand that you are no different. you are nothing special, you are doing what millions of others doing. as I said, a dime a dozen.
Oh, I see. We have one of those scumbag smear merchants who lie and cheat and label but demand others play by a different set of rules? What you did in the video on this page is not "opinion". Opinion is "vanilla icecream is better than chocolate"....there is no right or wrong answer. You, on the other hand, attempt to smear a politician who is "not your guy" with childish, cheap, lying theatrics, much like your spam here. You are less than a dime a dozen...worthless.
None of that make you a better person, or changed the fact that you are practicing a form of fascism by trying to dictate to me how you think I should handle a situation. You are entitled to your opinion, and I am entitled to mine. I know that bothers people like you, because you alwasy think you are right, but that's just the way it is.. It's called freedom of speech, and you are more then welcome to go someone else with your eltist attitude. You won't win anyone over here with you tactics.
A simple search on youtube reveals that u have a history of ruthlessly attacking those who you disagree with here are some of ur comments "what a loser u are, with your faggoty comments. not an original thought in your head or posts. a 26 y.o. scumbag loser sitting in front of a pc in dirty underoos in mommies house. you are a pathetic loser." and "Further, you ignorant, arrogant, bigoted ass,"
so this is normal operationg procedure for you. what does that say about the kind of person u are?
I ruthlessly attack arrogant stupidity and those who spew lies. Attack me, get attacked. No metrosexual sissy here, boy. Keep trying to spin the discussion away from your lies, distortions and whiny "it's not my fault i'm a liar" prattle. It won't work, spammy. Ever since I pointed out the nature of your video, you have spammed, attempted to ridicule, whined "it's not my fault" and tried to change the subject, even as you try to whine that ridicule is wrong. you are a coward.
u accuse me of spamming my own page?? Funny.. listen you closet bigot. I have no time for your close minded, "I'm always right" attitude.
I have proven that all you do on youtube is attack, call people names like faggot, ect., and create strawmen to try and look like you are intellectually superior.
ur're just another ideolouge preaching your own world view, except, u get vile and vicious when peope don't agree with u.
If I was a coward I would have blocked u, yet still I let u whine.
Stupid people often make comments like yours! You wouldn't know intelligence or wisdom if it walked up, punched you in the face and said "hi, I'm wisdom". Grow up you stoner-moron.
lingerfoot.. I posted a few of kenfo0's comments from over the past year or so.. i think you would be interested in reading them.. Don't take this guy seriously, because he has serious issues. He doesn't believe in liberty.. well, maybe for himself, but not for those with whom he disagrees with.. see for yourself.
Wow!!! You totally just misconstrued the point that Romney was making.. I hate watching videos from idiots like you that falsify the titles of vids, just to get more views....IDIOT
It is out of context. He was saying that he's not concerned about the voters knowing how much he spent, but the other candidates knowing how much he spent...in telling the voters, he tells the candidates. Right choice? Not sure, but it is out of context. SURE he cares about the voters.
ha! you're right. I just don't like to see things taken out of context for slanderous purposes. There are plenty of things you could use in argument against Romney that he DID say and mean that you don't need to take his exact words to show you don't like him.
And this is why I don't like Romney. His views are in line too much with the conservative views of Bush/Rove. And I'm not saying those are bad views necessarily. I'm just saying he put himself in line with the party platform to win its support. I think he'd say whatever it takes to win. I didn't agree with as many of McCain's views, but I see he cares about us, the people, so he's better. Huckabee was my first choice.
At first, my reaction to your comment was to think, "What a silly thing to point out, seeing as grammar is truly irrelevant in such a setting." But then I re-read my previous comment, and I noticed that it indeed has no grammar errors whatsoever. If you're going to call me out on grammar when it does not matter, perhaps you should at least be correct about it, sir.
Yes, there was a grammar error. Either you can say "libertarians weren't" or "libertarianism wasn't" I was just kidding though. My comment was just a joke. But, I know Bob Barr isn't that bad of a candidate. I would support him if he didn't have Ron Paul's foreign policy ideas. I think liberalism is a lot worse than libertarianism. Barack stands up there and thinks we have 59 states and he knows nothing about the economy. Higher taxes are not the way to go.
Actually it is called the subjunctive tense, and using "were" instead of "was" is correct in this example of the aforementioned regardless of plurality. Win.
And Barack Obama represents true liberalism like just like John McCain represents true conservatism.
How can you expect to have lower taxes if you don't support a noninterventionist foreign policy? News flash, wars cost money! Lots and lots of money. That money comes from you and I. That money comes from taxes.
true on the "i", but again, "if libertarianism weren't" respects the english rule of the subjunctive tense.
and recently i have had a bit of a change of heart; i still do not like staunch libertarianism (or elitism for that matter) but i have come to see ron paul as more of a moderate; a pragmatist's libertarian, if you will. i like the dude.

By the way, if I could vote for Ron Paul over Barack Obama, I would. To go back to where this argument really came from, I like Ron Paul; I just think this video is a little silly.
I don't like a lot of Libertarianism's core values but I'd rather have a candidate who actually HAS core values.
And then there's the aforementioned "libertarianism weren't" as opposed to what you really meant: "libertarian wasn't." But I digress. Libertarianism is at least a more thoughtful approach than republican or democratic these days. That's where most of the thinking, rational people are.
I am so happy that MC save us from Mitt the moron i mean Mormon....what a luni, such a pander.you can have all the money in the world and still be classless.
the question was: why not tell the voters of Florida and across the country how much of your own wealth you're spending so they can make a judgement and factor that in their own decisions? Well I'm not concerned about the voters (knowing how much I'm spending) I'm more concerned with the other guys on stage (trying to use that info against me) If he meant anything else it would not fit into the context of the question
hate to say it, but you took this out of context, you must really hate Romney, i know why you hate him, because he can beat Ron Paul any day of the damn year
"im not concerned about the voters [criticizing my personal spending], im concerned about the other guys on the stage [using personal spending number against me in ads and debates]. weak video, there are better videos that expose him, this is a mental illness video, not a good expose.
Why are people defending Mitt??? Face it, if Ron said this people would use it like a fucking chew toy. It would be all over the MSM and internet, it would be an anti-Ron Paul person's wet dream. Mudslinging is a terrible, terrible attribute in elections, but every canidate catches some of it, and Ron's been getting the motherload....all of it is bullshit or twisted statements. There's nothing twisted in this context, he clearly says "Well, I'm not concerned about the voters."
That's why I admire what a good guy Ron Paul is, have you ever heard him bad mouth any other candidates? I never hear about him being involved in any mudslinging....
Indeed. I was saying every canidate gets some mud thrown at them, and Ron hasn't thrown any back. That's a very good sign of maturity, and that's what we need in a president.
that's retarded... i'm not behind romney at all but he wasn't saying he doesn't care about voters period, he's just saying that he doesn't want to release figures on campaign spending. notice that the guy wasn't asking the other candidates the same question.... this was a pointless video
He probably regretted saying that -- perhaps a poor choise of words, however research (FBI -- 'statement analysis') does indicate that truth does slip out, and that people do not lie. Look it up -- fascinating stuff.
PS. I found out interesting that in the post you deleted that you said that Ron Paul has never accepted any donations from a hate group but then you delete and rechange your position. Do you even research your candidate?
I haven't changed my postition on anything.. he never accepted a donation from a "hate group." that is a lie, just like you saying i deleted a comment. the $500 dollar donation was from an individual, not a group. whether or not that ONE dumbass guy is racist or not, who knows, but guilt by association in terms such as this is a logical fallacy, and a strawman argument, which as I have already stated you seem very adept at.
And you think any of the other candidates, Democrat or Republican, are seeking the White House as a humanitarian act for the good of mankind? Whats wrong with wanting power, as long as you stand with a certain message?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
At least Romney admits when his views change which is more than I can say for any other politician up there. Even your precious Ron Paul has flip flopped on issues such as gay married, 9/11 commission and his free trade idealogy.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I have found in my 13 years of political experience that when people resort to personal attacks instead of defending their stance, it means that they dont have a rebuttal. Thanks for proving my point!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Whatever you say...look up the facts. The facts speak for themselves. I find it interesting that you state that you dont have to defend your viewpoints but you continue to do so.
I do admit Romney has flip flopped, particularly in his comments on various social issues. But when those statements were made, he was running to become either senator or governor of the most liberal state in the country. You campaign like Jesse Helms and you will not win in Mass. McCain, by contrast, had zero need to compromise any of his principles when he drafted McCain-Kennedy, Lieberman, and Feingold. He defected to the left, period.
And with him saying "Im not concerned with the voters..Im concerned about the other candidates". I really dont think he meant that he wasnt concerned about US but that he wasnt going to give his opponents that type of information until after the election.
PS. It's not that it was taken out of context.. it is that the McCain and Paul people are putting a spin on it. Get a life people!
no, the political system gives people with no life something to do, and spin is used by the media to convince people of their point of view.. imagine that.
i don't think it's spin at all to say that Mitt Romney would have had to drop out long ago if it wasn't for his fortune. He is NOT a man of the people like Ron paul, who receives. money from INDIVIDUAL donors. :).
Actually Romney has a huge voter base considering that he has the lead on delegate votes and Ron Paul has, what 4 delegates? He is not even a Republican. He ran as a libertarian before and lost the election, gee-I wonder why.
I would rather have a candidate that donates his own money and not have to answer to any special interests group.
Ron paul has ran as a republican for 10 terms and been elected. He IS a republican, and only someone niave wouldn't understand that liberty is the foundation of republican and democratic ideals. ron paul has taken no money from special interest groups.
Why does it matter so much to the anti-Romney people how much he spent on his campaign? So, he has more money than the other candidates? Big deal. I actually think that it is admirable that he has put most of HIS money into his campaign instead of making deals with special interests groups.
To Romney, it is a contest: who is going to win? It's not about America, it's not about the voters. It's about becoming president, and beating the other contenders. He makes this clear.
Romney would've had to drop out long ago if he was depending on the contributions of "people" to get him elected.
He's counting on his own personal wealth, much of which he obtained by buying companies, then firing the "people" working there & then offering them their jobs back with less pay & benefits.
The guy is as scummy as they get (okay, I know, I know -- McInsane is there, too).
Ummm, but this was taken out of context. If you watched the debate, you know that he was referring to not being worried about the voters knowing how much money he spent - he's worried about his opponents knowing how much money he's blowing.
Mitt would have had to drop out LONG ago if it wasn't for his fortune. that is why he doesn't want to mention it on TV. you should be honest with people and stop trying to hide these facts from other people -Mitt is not a man of the people. PERIOD. to say otherwise is intellectually dishonest.
sorry, but you can't play the "guilt by association" card with a $500 dollar donation from _one guy.
individuals, have donated MILLIONS to ron.. people who have all differnt kinds of views. real americans with diverse backgrounds.. some postive, some negative, but all under the roof of liberty. mitt hasn't rallied the people.
You dont see that by Ron Paul accepting a donation from a hate group he is legitmazing his cause? If not, then there is no point in my continuing my conversation with you because your logic is failed.
your argument has no merit. he never accepted a donation from a "hate group," so it's not my logic that is flawed. now, if he had accepted a donation from a special interest group that adovocated hate, then I would agree with you.. but this was an indivdual donation from one person.. out of hundreds of thousands of people who have donated to Ron's Campaign.
This video clip is completely out of context. What a cheap way of attacking someone. And I'm not even a Romney supporter. Whoever made this should try and stick to playing fair if they really want to support Ron Paul.
there is no context added.. anything you percieve comes from your own perceptions on the matter.. you know that this is a concern, and you are just trying to cover up the fact that Mitt would have had to drop out LONG ago if it wasn't for his fortune. HE IS NOT A MAN OF THE PEOPLE. PERIOD! Ron Paul is.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It's not even that it is out of context, it is that the McCain and Paul supporters are putting a spin on it because Romney is winning the delegate count right now.
I'm glad you made this video. I saw it live and was shocked. I know what he was trying to say, but it sure is a flub. I was surprised none of the bouncing heads on msnbc didn't comment on it. They were all saying how great he was. I thought it was a huge flub. At a minimum he is saying I don't care about the voters in knowing where my money comes from. Voters have the right to know - and he should care.
It is quite obvious to anyone who actually watched the debate that he was referring to not worrying about the voters knowing how much he is spending of his own money, only his opponents who will use that information to their political advantage. If he has the money and spends it to finance his campaign, wonderful. he is not indebted to anyone. Get real.
Mitt isn't concerned about the voters, other than how he can cheat to get them to vote for him. In his "slip of the tough" he has stated his case. As he has stated his case in buying the votes in a straw poll, used his own millions to buy more air time, busing in people from out of state, the list goes on and on. He is going for a job, not to serve.
I will try again. If you want someone who can gain the system for himself and his buddies, Mitt's your man. He's not my buddy. Dr. Paul speaks the truth. I am way sick of liars who are primped and packaged for U.S. consumption, and who change with the wind.
Man... why all these endless smear campaigns? It's pathetic, no one is actually discussing what policies he is promoting, it's all about finding shallow flaws... So he's got means of getting air time on radio? That's fantastic! Perhaps he now relies less on being in line with the Murdoch monopoly? Impressive and creative, however one compares to Ron Paul when it comes to promoting change and liberty, if he only had his own radio channel...
clear channel isn't a single "radio channel" it is an umbrella company consisting of 1200 radio stations, various billboard sites, newspapers and local cable channels like Fox and ABC, and it is a conflict of intrest for a political candidate to own a huge media outlet. as far as the "endless smear campaings?" well, us ron paul supporters are use to it.. funny thing is.. i never claimed mitt said anything he didn't, unlike the smears against Paul.. i just ripped a clip that aired on TV
I appreciate the reply, but you're really taking this clip out of context, MR actually makes sense if you hear it out.. However, it might be argued that this kind of tactics is necessary in order to win in the elections. Perhaps RP's attractive and humble non-aggressive approach in the debates is going to be his downfall. There is no shortcomings in the opponents flaws, he should tear them apart!
it's funny how you people can watch the clip, and then you apply your own perceptions to what you think he meant when he said what he said, and then you come to comment, and accuse me of "taking the clip" out of context, when in fact, it is your mind that took it out of context, i mearly recreated the double take moment i experianced when he said it. :)
This a complete and shamless misrepresentation. He said he was not concerned about the voters *knowing how much money he spent on his campaign*. Get a grip! Go Mitt!
no, it isn't.. i never implied that he meant anything other than what he said. you are the one trying to interpret his words.. besides, voters have a right to know how much of his off shore money he is using to fund his run. he is big buisness, but I never implied that in the video, you obviously noticed it on your own, which is why you think this video is shameless..
how can it imply anything other than what he said?? he said "i'm not concerned about the voters.." I didn't add or take away anything, i mearly replayed his comment 3 times. he said he doesn't care what we think about his offshore fortune paying for his presidental run.. this man just bought clear channel communications.. you think it would be good for a president to have control of conservative talk radio??
i never implied anything in the video other than what he said. now, do you think it would be good for a president to have control of conservative talk radio??
You're half right. He did mean strategically, he was concerned about what the other candidates know about his campaign finances. But Russert makes a valid point that the voters in Florida have a right to know how much money he is spending there. The fact that Mitt holds his strategy for winning over voters making an informed decision is pretty telling. What exactly DOES Mitt value over winning? Hmm??
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Wow, Romney haters are getting desperate. Either these haters are incredibly clueless or just dishonest... or both. Keep it up, guys! Romney is very obviously saying that he doesn't mind if the voters know how much he is spending. This video shamelessly cuts out the bulk of his very direct answer. If this is the best the Romney haters have, no wonder Romney is doing so well. GO MITT!! 2008 is going to be a great year!!
I'm not sure 3rd in national poll numbers is doing well. He is winning the delegate count though (For now) - so I guess it's all how you look at it. He is definitely doing better than I want him too:)
The nomination is not given because of who wins the popularity polls, it is given to the person who reaches 1191 delegates first and so far Mitt Romney is winning!
obviously these people watching this video here are not at all concerned about a possible president buying almost all talk radio.. they still post comments like, "voters like me don't care.." ahh, america.
So Mitt is not concerned about what voters think about his own financing of his campaign? Perhaps that is because voters like my self really don't give a shit.
Now, if you want to talk about his positions... that is a different story - Ron Paul all the way.
does it not bother you that his company just bought Clear Channel Communications??? they are like the biggest talk radio outfit in america... and a possible president owns the media.. yay.. don't you see a conflict of intrerest there?
No, I don't see that as a problem generally. What I see as a problem is the FCC regulations that cause huge media outlets and eliminate small ones where Ron Paul could get access like he does on YouTube. That is what the FCC has done (radio waves can carry the same bandwidth as the internet) but you have to buy your slice of pie there.
But yeah, since we DO have an FCC, it is 'bothersome' I just rather get rid of the FCC than say president candidates can't buy media.
Thanks for making this video. Not only does it show him making this statement, but it also shows him needing to hide the facts about his own money use in his campaign.

Governor Mitt Romney is a RINO. He supports stringent gun laws. His Health care overhaul pales in comparison to the atrocity of Obamacare, but it was similar. He has never expressed public regret for this. He told Michigan residents at an event there that the financial services bailout was absolutely necessary. He stated you said that the Republican Party needs to pass "immigration reform" (amnesty) in order to attract new voters. He’d vote for Obama! watch?v=jPGnJmbDq08

@langtangticky the question was: why not tell the voters of Florida and across the country how much of your own wealth you're spending so they can make a judgement and factor that in their own decisions? Well I'm not concerned about the voters (knowing how much I'm spending) I'm more concerned with the other guys on stage (trying to use that info against me) If he meant anything else it would not fit into the context of the question (Copied from ClearyPsychotic's comment)

rodeorock39 3 years ago
Yes, there was a grammar error. Either you can say "libertarians weren't" or "libertarianism wasn't" I was just kidding though. My comment was just a joke. But, I know Bob Barr isn't that bad of a candidate. I would support him if he didn't have Ron Paul's foreign policy ideas. I think liberalism is a lot worse than libertarianism. Barack stands up there and thinks we have 59 states and he knows nothing about the economy. Higher taxes are not the way to go.
MomentsAfter 3 years ago
Actually it is called the subjunctive tense, and using "were" instead of "was" is correct in this example of the aforementioned regardless of plurality. Win.
And Barack Obama represents true liberalism like just like John McCain represents true conservatism.

How can you expect to have lower taxes if you don't support a noninterventionist foreign policy? News flash, wars cost money! Lots and lots of money. That money comes from you and I. That money comes from taxes.

and recently i have had a bit of a change of heart; i still do not like staunch libertarianism (or elitism for that matter) but i have come to see ron paul as more of a moderate; a pragmatist's libertarian, if you will. i like the dude.

By the way, if I could vote for Ron Paul over Barack Obama, I would. To go back to where this argument really came from, I like Ron Paul; I just think this video is a little silly.
I don't like a lot of Libertarianism's core values but I'd rather have a candidate who actually HAS core values.
In other words, I'd rank them in this order:
1. True Liberal
2. True Conservative
3. Democrat
4. Republican
Follow?
rodeorock39 3 years ago
And then there's the aforementioned "libertarianism weren't" as opposed to what you really meant: "libertarian wasn't." But I digress. Libertarianism is at least a more thoughtful approach than republican or democratic these days. That's where most of the thinking, rational people are.

I do admit Romney has flip flopped, particularly in his comments on various social issues. But when those statements were made, he was running to become either senator or governor of the most liberal state in the country. You campaign like Jesse Helms and you will not win in Mass. McCain, by contrast, had zero need to compromise any of his principles when he drafted McCain-Kennedy, Lieberman, and Feingold. He defected to the left, period.

Actually Romney has a huge voter base considering that he has the lead on delegate votes and Ron Paul has, what 4 delegates? He is not even a Republican. He ran as a libertarian before and lost the election, gee-I wonder why.

Why does it matter so much to the anti-Romney people how much he spent on his campaign? So, he has more money than the other candidates? Big deal. I actually think that it is admirable that he has put most of HIS money into his campaign instead of making deals with special interests groups.

He's counting on his own personal wealth, much of which he obtained by buying companies, then firing the "people" working there & then offering them their jobs back with less pay & benefits.
The guy is as scummy as they get (okay, I know, I know -- McInsane is there, too).

Ummm, but this was taken out of context. If you watched the debate, you know that he was referring to not being worried about the voters knowing how much money he spent - he's worried about his opponents knowing how much money he's blowing.

Mitt would have had to drop out LONG ago if it wasn't for his fortune. that is why he doesn't want to mention it on TV. you should be honest with people and stop trying to hide these facts from other people -Mitt is not a man of the people. PERIOD. to say otherwise is intellectually dishonest.

More like he is funding his own campaign so he will not have to answer to special interests group.

With a special interest in hate groups considering he accepted a $500 contribution from a white movement group.

sorry, but you can't play the "guilt by association" card with a $500 dollar donation from _one guy.
individuals, have donated MILLIONS to ron.. people who have all differnt kinds of views. real americans with diverse backgrounds.. some postive, some negative, but all under the roof of liberty. mitt hasn't rallied the people.

You dont see that by Ron Paul accepting a donation from a hate group he is legitmazing his cause? If not, then there is no point in my continuing my conversation with you because your logic is failed.
ConservChic 4 years ago
your argument has no merit. he never accepted a donation from a "hate group," so it's not my logic that is flawed. now, if he had accepted a donation from a special interest group that adovocated hate, then I would agree with you.. but this was an indivdual donation from one person.. out of hundreds of thousands of people who have donated to Ron's Campaign.

This video clip is completely out of context. What a cheap way of attacking someone. And I'm not even a Romney supporter. Whoever made this should try and stick to playing fair if they really want to support Ron Paul.
jonboy20 4 years ago
there is no context added.. anything you percieve comes from your own perceptions on the matter.. you know that this is a concern, and you are just trying to cover up the fact that Mitt would have had to drop out LONG ago if it wasn't for his fortune. HE IS NOT A MAN OF THE PEOPLE. PERIOD! Ron Paul is.

It's not even that it is out of context, it is that the McCain and Paul supporters are putting a spin on it because Romney is winning the delegate count right now.

I'm glad you made this video. I saw it live and was shocked. I know what he was trying to say, but it sure is a flub. I was surprised none of the bouncing heads on msnbc didn't comment on it. They were all saying how great he was. I thought it was a huge flub. At a minimum he is saying I don't care about the voters in knowing where my money comes from. Voters have the right to know - and he should care.

He is not the one. He may have the money but he does not have the majority of the populations' best interests at heart.
So clear to see!

It is quite obvious to anyone who actually watched the debate that he was referring to not worrying about the voters knowing how much he is spending of his own money, only his opponents who will use that information to their political advantage. If he has the money and spends it to finance his campaign, wonderful. he is not indebted to anyone. Get real.

Mitt isn't concerned about the voters, other than how he can cheat to get them to vote for him. In his "slip of the tough" he has stated his case. As he has stated his case in buying the votes in a straw poll, used his own millions to buy more air time, busing in people from out of state, the list goes on and on. He is going for a job, not to serve.
Boomer1949 4 years ago 2
I will try again. If you want someone who can gain the system for himself and his buddies, Mitt's your man. He's not my buddy. Dr. Paul speaks the truth. I am way sick of liars who are primped and packaged for U.S. consumption, and who change with the wind.
thetimman00 4 years ago
Man... why all these endless smear campaigns? It's pathetic, no one is actually discussing what policies he is promoting, it's all about finding shallow flaws... So he's got means of getting air time on radio? That's fantastic! Perhaps he now relies less on being in line with the Murdoch monopoly? Impressive and creative, however one compares to Ron Paul when it comes to promoting change and liberty, if he only had his own radio channel...

clear channel isn't a single "radio channel" it is an umbrella company consisting of 1200 radio stations, various billboard sites, newspapers and local cable channels like Fox and ABC, and it is a conflict of intrest for a political candidate to own a huge media outlet. as far as the "endless smear campaings?" well, us ron paul supporters are use to it.. funny thing is.. i never claimed mitt said anything he didn't, unlike the smears against Paul.. i just ripped a clip that aired on TV
RonPaulvsTyranny 4 years ago
I appreciate the reply, but you're really taking this clip out of context, MR actually makes sense if you hear it out.. However, it might be argued that this kind of tactics is necessary in order to win in the elections. Perhaps RP's attractive and humble non-aggressive approach in the debates is going to be his downfall. There is no shortcomings in the opponents flaws, he should tear them apart!
theeggwoman 4 years ago
it's funny how you people can watch the clip, and then you apply your own perceptions to what you think he meant when he said what he said, and then you come to comment, and accuse me of "taking the clip" out of context, when in fact, it is your mind that took it out of context, i mearly recreated the double take moment i experianced when he said it. :)

This a complete and shamless misrepresentation. He said he was not concerned about the voters *knowing how much money he spent on his campaign*. Get a grip! Go Mitt!

no, it isn't.. i never implied that he meant anything other than what he said. you are the one trying to interpret his words.. besides, voters have a right to know how much of his off shore money he is using to fund his run. he is big buisness, but I never implied that in the video, you obviously noticed it on your own, which is why you think this video is shameless..
RonPaulvsTyranny 4 years ago
The video is edited, rewound and his words replayed numerous times. That doesn't imply anything?
charmoore1 4 years ago
how can it imply anything other than what he said?? he said "i'm not concerned about the voters.." I didn't add or take away anything, i mearly replayed his comment 3 times. he said he doesn't care what we think about his offshore fortune paying for his presidental run.. this man just bought clear channel communications.. you think it would be good for a president to have control of conservative talk radio??
RonPaulvsTyranny 4 years ago
Did he say he didn't care what we think about his offshore fortune paying for his presidential run or is it something you implied?

RonPaulvsTyranny 4 years ago
You're half right. He did mean strategically, he was concerned about what the other candidates know about his campaign finances. But Russert makes a valid point that the voters in Florida have a right to know how much money he is spending there. The fact that Mitt holds his strategy for winning over voters making an informed decision is pretty telling. What exactly DOES Mitt value over winning? Hmm??
John4Ron 4 years ago
I wonder if the "whisperer" sent an electrical shock thru the ear piece after that comment!
And why would such a nice guy like Mitt be so concerned about his opponents? And what does that have to do with how much personal money he has spent?
Maybe the "whisperer" is on our side and made Mitt look like an ass.

Wow, Romney haters are getting desperate. Either these haters are incredibly clueless or just dishonest... or both. Keep it up, guys! Romney is very obviously saying that he doesn't mind if the voters know how much he is spending. This video shamelessly cuts out the bulk of his very direct answer. If this is the best the Romney haters have, no wonder Romney is doing so well. GO MITT!! 2008 is going to be a great year!!

I'm not sure 3rd in national poll numbers is doing well. He is winning the delegate count though (For now) - so I guess it's all how you look at it. He is definitely doing better than I want him too:)

The nomination is not given because of who wins the popularity polls, it is given to the person who reaches 1191 delegates first and so far Mitt Romney is winning!

I just read Romney bought CLEAR CHANNEL.
In other words, he bought a big portion of the media. Maybe that's why we never hear Ron Paul's name mentioned.

So Mitt is not concerned about what voters think about his own financing of his campaign? Perhaps that is because voters like my self really don't give a shit.
Now, if you want to talk about his positions... that is a different story - Ron Paul all the way.
TabooRealities 4 years ago
does it not bother you that his company just bought Clear Channel Communications??? they are like the biggest talk radio outfit in america... and a possible president owns the media.. yay.. don't you see a conflict of intrerest there?
RonPaulvsTyranny 4 years ago
No, I don't see that as a problem generally. What I see as a problem is the FCC regulations that cause huge media outlets and eliminate small ones where Ron Paul could get access like he does on YouTube. That is what the FCC has done (radio waves can carry the same bandwidth as the internet) but you have to buy your slice of pie there.
But yeah, since we DO have an FCC, it is 'bothersome' I just rather get rid of the FCC than say president candidates can't buy media.
