Ron Paul and Romney supporters EPIC debate



- The above 'WEARECHANGE.ORG'-stamped Youtube was posted (reposted?) by 'AG3NTANTHRAX',
September 20, 2012. The clip looks like
it was probably created during the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Florida,
in late August. The debate is an excellent, wide-ranging, in-depth discussion. The debaters
are respectful and even-keeled - impressive, considering the political and economic mess we're in.  There is no difference between Obama and Romney, argues the Ron Paul supporter.  Agreed.

The Republicans' 2012 Teleprompted Convention Part 2



Weep for America. Background: GOP embeds are afraid of the people. Obviously, it follows that what they want is not what the people want. So they are trying to wrap it up with a bow for themselves this way: change the GOP rules so that an unelected rules committee - or the presumptive nominee?/! - can refuse to permit DULY ELECTED delegates, voted for by the citizens of their respective states, from exercising their duties to vote for the next leader of the Republican Party. Here, at the two minute mark, a voice vote to adopt the new rules is taken. To my ears it's too close to call; a tie between the ayes and the nays. the teleprompter is pre-scripted! and is read by the announcer: the ayes have it, over loud shouts from the floor of 'point of order!'

Romney Obama Paul The Elites Corruption And The Bomb

The military-industrials sector, the political class and the banks are pulling off a neat trick - a shell game. There is little substantive difference between Romney and Obama.  

Their apologists raise the issue of Ron Paul's support for bringing back a gold-backed dollar. They say it's wacko, hoping that voters will believe them and that, as a result, voters would ignore almost every other pertinent thing. 

Every time one hears of 'economic easing' it means that, in reality, they are watering down the value of the dollar - a hidden tax on you and me. Ron Paul's idea is to prevent them from so impoverishing us. If you think about it, it's not so easy to water down gold.

Not all issues are equal, of course.  Ron Paul wanted to save us from ourselves by restoring sanity to our foreign policy. Our military 'adventurism' is often described as reckless. Thinking we can boss everybody and control all the world's riches is not sane.  
Ringing nuclear-armed Russia with missiles.  Not sane. Positioning the military for future dreams of challenging nuclear-armed China. Is that sane?  Refusing to compute that Russia and China, of necessity, are increasingly allying their interests. (One senses a trend.)

Judge not by what they say, but by what they do - the better test. What happened with the cheating throughout the Republican leadership contest, and, ultimately, against Ron Paul delegates in the end at the Republican National Congress, in Tampa, Florida - is not symptomatic of the GOP. I don't think so. It's symptomatic of the fact that we are headed straight to lawlessness, war and hell. Ron Paul wanted to stop it. Or try, anyway. All the while, he was smeared and mocked in the popular press. Meanwhile, during the 2012 Republican leadership campaign, tens of thousands in California alone turned out to hear Ron Paul share his message in a matter of days. This was the norm.

For what passes as measured discourse on Israel in the corporate press, Joe Klein's article, 'Senority', is pretty good.  Slanted toward the occupying status quo; inclined to blame the Palestinian victims - but still, good.  
He points out that Palestinians are every bit as enterprising and hard-working as Jews, citing examples. He extrapolates the irony regarding just how much Palestinians and Jews share in common.
And the concluding paragraph is superb. Klein skewers Romney for his racist views regarding the Palestinian people:
'Romney’s ignorance of these details, and his willingness to associate himself with extremist grotesques like Sheldon Adelson, raise serious questions about his ability to conduct a wise and measured foreign policy.'
The Daily Show's Jon Stewart works it on Mitt Romney's disastrous overseas jaunt:
“Again, Romney appears to be saying while Palestinian despair has its roots in their culture, God is also holding them down,” Stewart noted. “Or, if you prefer to look at the converse, Israel’s economic progress is evidence of the hand of providence — going to assume that all the horrible shit that happened to the Jews prior to that was the hand of providence’s middle finger.” 
[As seen in, 'Jon Stewart mocks Romney's Israel gaffes: Jews are culturally money-making motherf*ckers'; Raw Story's Eric W. Dolan, July 31, 2012 -- includes the clip.]
Whoops:
However, Mr. Klein commits a rather large journalistic gaffe himself. Missing in his article is the bit that Romney hasn't actually won the nomination yet. 
One-term governor Mitt Romney's opponent is twelve-term congressman Ron Paul - the real political giant - as is so patently obvious in this August 1st, 2012 floor speech in the House of Congress:  



'Congressman Ron Paul's Speech Against Iran Sanctions'

Aside to the national leadership of the Republican Party:
Vote fraud and other political dirty tricks by embeds in the Republican Party system is going to go down in history - with names and dates - that's guaranteed. It's not too late to do the right thing.  Shut down the shenanigans going on in state after state, trying to strip elected Ron Paul delegates of their duties only to replace them with unelected Romney moles - before it hits the courts (and it's headed there.)  
Ron Paul won the votes and the delegates to qualify. There should be no equivocating by the Republican Party about placing Ron Paul's name on the ballot for the Republican National Congress taking place, in Tampa, Florida in just a few weeks' time.
