VOTE 4 RON PAUL!

[royaladam]

The real reason why the both rich & republican party loves Reagan, he given them tax cut. Maybe I should switch political partys.

[royaladam]

As a republican, I embrace Thomas Jefferson,Abe Lincoln,Teddy Roosevelt,IKE, & Nixon. The rest of Republican Presidents could go to hell.

@JC0R0NA88 That's sorta ignoring the bulk of the footage.

[JC0R0NA88]

[UndeadLight]

They cremated Reagan and injected the ashes straight into their blood stream.

[MyTemporaryAccount88]

What about Reagan being responsible for Al-Qaeda?

@leegeorgeson So did Clinton, Bush 1, Bush 2, and Obama. What is your point?

[asleeperj]

@lonelytrixter That only means they didn't do their homework, still intellectually dishonest. So where the creators of that clip. I love how Fox complains about the "mainstream media," when in fact they are the mainstream media. All of the Mainstream media do is report half truths, and opinions. How is Fox any different than MSNBC, NBC, CNN, or ABC? I love being a Libertarian. I am always right in a debate, and I can show you how stupid either party is on any given subject.

[lonelytrixter]

@asleeperj The clip was originally run on the news not on TYT. They wouldn't have been able to cut it in the first place since they didn't put the clip together.

I can't say if Cenk is aware of Ron Paul's letter or not. The clip was more to make fun of the majority of presidential candidates making references to Reagan than anything else.

@ANTICARBONTAX

So if we can put up a vote to see if we should execute you with VX Nerve gas because someone found you ugly?

Nice!

[ANTICARBONTAX]

@mecher3k "Wait wait, so if I'm not for people VOTING to see if people have rights or not, I'm AGAINST those same rights they would be voting for?"

Yes because like I just taught you in this conversation all rights are created by voting not out of thin air like you thought the constitution was hahaha.

"Lol fucking fascist."

I very much doubt you know the meaning of the word considering the educational level/inaccuracies of your replies. I suggest you look the meaning of the word up.

[mecher3k]

@ANTICARBONTAX

Wait wait, so if I'm not for people VOTING to see if people have rights or not, I'm AGAINST those same rights they would be voting for?

You seriously can't get any more retarded if you tried at this rate.

Lol fucking fascist.

[ANTICARBONTAX]

@mecher3k So basically if you’re against people voting on rights then you’re against all rights including gay rights and women’s rights ect. Plus I don’t know why I’m arguing with a person that thought that the constitution just came out of thin air and wasn't even voted on. Seriously go to school you retard.

[asleeperj]

Why are they clipping the only GOP candidate that didn't support Reagan? Ron Paul wrote a letter, denouncing Reagan. OOPS. TYT is being intellectually dishonest. Ron Paul, supported Reagan's message, but not his implementation. Kinda like Obama. I supported the message and what he said, but he did none of it.
