Ron Paul Addresses Boos From South Carolina GOP Debate

How can We the people sue these biased Mainstream parent owner, for affecting our decision on something as important as president? They are guilty cause Ron Paul is a Candidate and electoral poll votes shows hes Electable. I would gladly be apart of this and sure millions of others feel it has affected there vote also

When I hear people people say “RuPaul has a better chance of becoming president than Ron Paul” l smile. What most people don’t get is the Ron Paul campaign is not about one 76 yr old doctor with a stilted, sometimes stumbling delivery. It’s a movement about an idea. That idea is liberty. Liberty is something both Democrats and Republicans have gradually walked away from in this country.

Liberty means you have a right your life, your body, your privacy, and the fruit of your labor. Liberty means living your life the way you want to as long as you don’t hurt other people. It means setting a good example is a far better way to spread ideals than through force of arms. It means aspiring towards a more free society, where individual rights are held in the highest esteem and the rejection of the initiation of force. It means profits that are honestly earned through voluntary exchange add value to the world while profits gained by violating the property rights of others through theft, pollution, or government bailouts and subsidies do not. And it means the rejection of wireless wiretaps, indefinite detention of US citizens and assassination of US citizens without due process. 

Ron Paul may not win the presidency, but that doesnt mean the quirky, didactic, old man can’t have a profound effect on American society when it comes to government debt, fiat currencies, the Drug War, the Federal Reserve, endless overseas wars, civil liberties and the militarization of the US police force. Whether its outlawing the selling of raw milk, sugary drinks in school, or the ridiculous Los Angeles city council today voting to require all adult film actors to wear condoms people are getting sick of an overbearing, bankrupt nanny state.

Veterans for Ron Paul 2012 !

Goldman Sachs & Bank of America for Romney & Obama.

Wake up baby boomers ! It is time to learn how to use the internet to research for the truth, and stop letting the main stream media spoon feed you lies & propaganda. Our future depends on it.

1) Paul has worked to crack down on the Federal Reserve which is directly responsible for the U.S. debt, the perpetual deficits, and the advancement of the welfare/warfare state.
2) Paul is against the NDAA and the right of the Federal government to indefinitely detain US citizens without due process and strip citizens of legal protections based on its sole discretion
3) Paul is against SOPA, the so-called online piracy act but actually an Internet death penalty that allows the Attorney General to disappear websites
4) Paul voted against the Patriot Act including warrantless surveillance and forcing companies to turn over information on citizens’ finances, communications and associations
5) Paul is against the Obama administration’s use GPS devices to monitor every move of targeted citizens without securing any court order or review
6) Paul believes the 50 states should be laboratories for democracy. If a state wants to legalize drugs, prostitution or gay marraige, it should be up to the people of that state and not the Federal government
7) Paul is against the right of Obama or any president to assassinate US citizens without due process
8) Paul wants to cut the Pentagon budget by $1 trillion.
9) Paul wants to decriminalize marijuana and to dial back the worst excesses of the failed, trillion dollar drug war.
10) Paul has consistently opposed free-trade deals that have led to massive layoffs and factory closings in the United States

We,, we know form prior articles by Jason he is as biased as they come. No wonder why this is another biased article. E.G. “Paul’s willingness to stand up for what he believes in when it comes to U.S. involvement in foreign countries hurt him repeatedly in Monday’s debate.” Really? There was one boo, and it turned into cheers after he explained himself. But that doesn’t fall in line with ABC’s strategy, which is to destroy liberty by any means necessary.

It was a hand picked Fox News crowd. Of course they’ll boo a peace message.

The only real choice, if it’s not Ron Paul, is which big government deficit spender you want presiding over the economy (whose party will be completely blamed for it), when it all implodes. I would rather it be the liberal who makes no bones about being a big trillions of dollars of debt/deficit spending liberal, than someone the public mistakes (like Bush was mistaken), for being a so-called “conservative”. It is because of that I would hope that Ron Paul runs independently, on principle and not party, as always – even if it spoils the hopes of so-called “conservatives”.

The fact that the Golden Rule got booed tells you all you need to know about the sincerity of GOP ‘Christians.’

Ron Paul adopts the golden rule when it comes to foreign policy, and people boo! Seems like most adopt a different biblical principal..”spare the rod spoil the child”. Problem is IRAN is NOT a child..it is a sovereign nation. If we or they can’t play nice, let our gov ignore them..but let our companies do business..why? If you recall, their rebellion was easily squashed. You think it would have been the case if they had access to military contractors?

pffft, golden rules are for idiots. We need flip floppers, the usurpation of rights and the desecration of the constitution.
What the hell is this Ron Paul guy thinking?

The neoconservative principle of “unipolarity” means that the United States must remain the one and only world super power. Balance of power is a bad word to the GOP. This means that the US has to be at perpetual war to achieve this goal. Basically the neoconservatives would have the United States at war with the entire world for as long as we can keep bullying other countries. Any history text book I have ever read shows that nations that behave like this lose big time in the end. Happened to Germany twice. Happened to Alexander the Great (who lost in Afghanistan). Happened to the former Soviet Union (who also lost in Afghanistan). If we keep this up, we will be to China what the Soviet Union was to us. And yet everyone will act so surprised when we collapse for making the same stupid mistakes.

The majority of the crowd was “pre-selected” in a lottery rather than just allowing the public in to hear the debate. Americans who depend on the MSM for coverage of the candidates only hear what the network chooses for them to hear. The MSM won’t tell you we had Bin Ladin on several occasions, the most publicized being Tora Bora, and our troops were told to stand down,allowing him to escape into Pakistan . This is from the head of the CIA Bin Ladin Unit. Dr. Paul’s position was if we let him go for ten years so we could wage a war on the region and clean up some of the mess we created over the last forty years, why not just capture him and question him rather than some dramatic raid to pump up the current administration. Bin Ladin was our creation…we supported him with training and weapons when Russia invaded Afghanistan. The uninformed don’t grasp this concept. The public is starting to wake up…they understand that our country is broke and this is going to end very badly for everyone, except maybe the wealthy. Our national debt is unsustainable. If you enjoy $4. gasoline and $5. gallons of milk, just wait and see what happens. Like the frog in a slowly boiling pot of water…it’s almost too late….

@Brett Yollis….
Moral? Moral??? What is moral in STARTING a war? (Iraq OR IRan). Do you let your kid go beat the sheesh out of the neighbor kid b/c of a verbal threat or even blatantly obvious intent? What gives? Further, what did the Taliban do to us? Osama was the target. Did you know that the Taliban offered to give Osama up to a neutral country for trial, but Bush refused? Why? Did you know that Ron Paul authored a bill for the letters of marque and reprisal (As outlined in the Constitution) so our Special Ops boys could go in and capture him (instead of a ground invasion). And look….ten years later it STILL took a special ops team, in a country we are not officially at war with, to get Osama. What, exactly, is moral about the way things went down the last 10 years?? Our careless vengeance (seeking justice by immoral means) has led to untold numbers of deaths of men, women, and children. War, itself, is a SERIOUS MORAL ISSUE.

Once upon a time we had a policy of ARMED NEUTRALITY (non-interventionism). Once upon a time Christians believed in strictly defensive war-fare (let alone, the golden rule). Once upon a time our founding fathers engaged in DIPLOMACY to bring about a peaceful end to our grievances with King George. Once upon a time Andrew Jackson fought the redcoats ON OUR CONTINENT to throw off a TYRANT.

235 years later, we’ve eschewed all of that. We think we need to ‘go over there’ to defend our freedoms here. Yet, in the last ten years we’ve seen our elected officials (the same ones who led us into and maintain these wars ‘to preserve our freedom’) mount a massive assault on our Bill of Rights, specifically, the 1st, 4th, and 6th (MCA, Patriot, NDAA, TSA). While many criticize Ron Paul’s domestic proposals as turning back the clock 100 years, audience members CHEERED when Romney/Obama turned back the clock 800 years by supporting the NDAA (indefinite detention clause). Our basic freedoms are not under threat from the middle east….It’s happening HERE! The politicians who sent us there are having the last laugh. WAKE UP AMERICA!!

Only sociopaths boo “the golden rule”.

Actually not being able to understand the golden rule, in other words not being able to empathize is the definition of the mental disorder called sociopathy.

Of course South Carolina booed the Golden Rule. Just as South Carolina’s representative Joe Wilson shouted out “Liar” to the President and then was lauded by his constituents, it’s a rude and crude state full of hate-filled Christians that is falsely known for its good manners.

The US is the only nation that was dangerous and irresponsible enough to use nuclear weapons on another nation. Does that make us a “rogue” nation, like Iran?

I love this line from the ‘news article’, “Paul’s willingness to stand up for what he believes in when it comes to U.S. involvement in foreign countries hurt him repeatedly in Monday’s debate.”

According to whom? As far as I know, in the ‘real world’ our Millitary men and women are the largest supporters of Ron Paul. Additionally, Americans are sick of losing their sons and daughters to causes that benefit only Congress and the Banking Cartels.

It is amazing, a room full of “Christians” booing at Ron Paul when he spoke about peace is sad and proves how bad and corrupt not only this country is but religion. Everytime Mitt Romney and the other GOP candidates would say “I’d kill them” the crowd would cheer, that should have been more news than Ron Paul’s words of piece.

Why boo and reject one of Christ’s principal philosophies just because it was uttered in reference to the relationship between nations and not just between individuals? Does the same principal not apply? Would they have bood Christ if He had been the one standing before them saying it? Undoubtedly they would unfortunately, just like the pharisees of His day did. What’s wrong with seeking a peaceful solution first? What’s wrong with respecting the sovereignty of other nations in the same way that we demand they respect our national sovereignty? Why should we have hundreds of military bases in about 130 other countries when we all know that Americans would never stand for another nation putting a military base on our soil? What’s wrong with wanting to restore our constitutional republic to limited government with a strong national DEFENSE instead of continuing to grow our vast military empire that we can’t afford? These are all Ron Paul’s positions. They are consistent with the constitution and with the biblical principals that conservatives used to claim to honor before they booed them.

I heard Jesus Christ got up and walked out of the debate after hearing so called Christians booing.

This is not “News” it’s history! LAZY REGURGITATION. The morons booed Dr Paul’s mention of the Golden Rule. It was a Farce News Contrived Event. Ironically, Dr Paul was cheered at the end of his statement, despite the fact he never went off message. A PLANTED Audience, no doubt.
Dems and Reps, different pages from the same bad book.

Looks like Dr. Paul is a going to be teflon president like Ronald Reagan. The more his critics try to demolish him the stronger he gets and more concrete his support gets.

If Ron Paul had not raised these issues, the primary debate process would be dominated by the shallowest of rhetoric. I am voting for Ron Paul during the primaries, and regardless of who ultimately gets the nomination, it is critical in the name of stopping the two-party central government insanity by giving Paul as many delegates to the national convention as possible! I cannot vote in the general election for Governor Romney or President Obama. I can’t. I will be taking a good look at the Libertarian Party and Constitution Party nominees.

Ron Paul is not hurt by his commitment to his convictions–he is strengthened!

i just know that ron paul is not a hypocrite and his performance and presence exposes hypocrisy and ignorance and that hypocrisy and ignorance came forth to be exposed through that public forum.

It most certainly did not “hurt him repeatedly.” It showed him to be the man we support wholeheartedly: Principled, Consistent, and Honest. He exposed the warmongering Christian Right for what they are: bloodthirsty, big-government, hypocrites.

Truth is Treason in the Empire of Lies – Ron Paul

Ron Paul 2012! Restore the Constitution! Restore the Republic!

When will the media state properly that Ron Paul is the Conservative on foreign policy and the war and fear mongers are liberal/progressives of the Teddy Roosevelt wing of the party?

Bloodthirsty Christian warmongers booing the Bible might be an all time low in the history of American politics. Neocon Bible-thumpers like Jesus Christ…except for his kooky foreign policy.

To exemplify the stupidity of the South Carolina audience (the same state that nominated Alvin Greene and repeatedly elects Lindsay Graham), they roundly cheered Newt’s reference to Andrew Jackson killing the enemy. The same Andrew Jackson that threatened to hang the people of South Carolina if they dared to oppose any policy of the United States.

In fairness to South Carolina, though, the audience was preselected.

As for ankle-biter Rick Perry, he has already been gonged by the voters in every state he has campaigned.

Okay, Ron Paul certainly has his pluses but what I’m not reading from his supporters is Ron Paul’s stance on the Department of the Interior. Small point to some of you but for those of us who enjoy camping, hiking, fishing and hunting this point is far from moot. Consider this if Ron Paul gets into the White House, if he is elected he will remove the Department of the Interior which will force YOUR National Parks and historic landmarks into privatization which in latent terms means private developers will own your National Parks. Places like Yellow Stone, Yosimite, Gettysburg, Rocky Mountain National Park, The Smokey Mountain National Park, The Appalachian Trail and hundreds of other natural places which America has treasured and honored for over a century. Surely there are thosands of other items, programs and pork spending allotments he could remove but this is not the case. Remember, it is not what he says that makes him unelectable but what he stands against like immigration reform and does not go into detail about that makes him dangerous for our Presidency.

This debate was just a preview of how far Rupert Murdoch (owner of Fox 8 news), and his business associates (The Rothschilds: majority owners of the Federal reserve) are willing to go to squash the Ron Paul movement. Look at how they are using their Wall street banking firms:(Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Barklays and others to finance The Romney campaign as well as the Obama campaign using bail out money. These people are capable of just about anything. If you care about our country you should donate all you can to the Ron Paul campaign. It is your last chance to buy your freedom back.

“Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: ‘It is mine to avenge; I will repay,’ says the Lord. On the contrary: If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good” – Romans 12:17-21.

he is not going to sell national landmarks, private businesses would provide the security, etc

POSTED BY: MATT | JANUARY 18, 2012, 5:51 AM 5:51 AM, are you getting scared, to make claims like that. Your just like any other liberal throw something out and hope that it sticks. Its not like the Obama campaign coaxed people and children what to say and ask.

The media is continuing to push forward the idea that he was ONLY booed for his message about the Golden Rule. For those that actually have seen that debate, they will know that Dr. Paul spoke in one breath, through the first boos, and when he got to his main point that we must stop the war-mongering, nation building and world policing, to bring out troops home, a big part of the audience erupted into applause. His speech that was booed, ended with applause! Tell the whole story, please.

Here are my thoughts on Ron Paul. God / the Universe/ the Creator/who ever is that higher authority for you (for me it is Christ Jesus- but I respect all other thoughts) is providing an opportunity for this nation to take responsibility for what We have created here in this nation and aboard. If we do not take responsibility for these actions, than we are going to experience the affect of those actions and the results will be cast down on us. What would those things be that come – exaclty what Ron Paul is telling us is coming, just like he did in 2003 with the Housing Bubble (or is that 1993 or 1983(. If this nation Bos at the Golden rule like they did in South Carolina, my fellow American, be prepared for what follows next. Our actions are not without repercussions. We have the Responsibility, no one else does.

Neoconservatives and so-called “Christian” conservatives prefer the following Golden Rule:

Do one to others before they do one to you.

If Jesus came back tomorrow, these would be the first group he’d likely call out for their rampant hypocrisy.

Our corporate-overlord owned media wants you to believe this, “Paul’s willingness to stand up for what he believes in when it comes to U.S. involvement in foreign countries hurt him repeatedly in Monday’s debate.” To me, it’s another reason I’m voting for Dr. Paul. The other candidates will only stand up for what they believe will get them elected. Then they’ll do what their plutocrat owners tell them to. The super-rich have purchased the best government money can buy, and it’s a big one. I’ve read that 59% of “New Hampshire’s GOP voters think Romney is the candidate most likely to beat Obama.” That’s funny. Romney is the candidate most LIKE Obama. We’re getting distracted. The last thing Barack Obama did in 2011 was sign a bill that eliminates due process for anyone suspected of terrorism in America. Did we wake up in Stalin’s Russia in 2012? Which of the candidates would never have signed that bill? We need someone in office who will take our country back to where it should be, guided by the principles of the constitution. Not people who are taking our tax dollars to build empires. If you’re a conservative, vote for Ron Paul. He’s the only GOP candidate who really stands for lower taxes and less government. The rest are paying lip service to get elected. If you’re a liberal, like myself, vote for Ron Paul. He’s the only one who really would get us out of all of the insane foreign entanglements, and keep the government in check when it comes to our civil liberties. I’m a liberal for liberty! It’s time we vote our conscious, instead of voting for “my guy who is the only one who stands a chance of beating your guy.” Ron Paul 2012!

I dislike not being able to thumbs up my fellow RP supporters. You all have some great comments!

I will just add that Romney’s just been thrown a major curve ball with McCain’s Opposition Book on Romney (from the 2008 campaign, recently revealed on the internet). Enjoy googling!

More proof that our corporate-overlord owned media does not want Dr. Paul to be elected, a prior poster wrote: “Dr. Paul spoke in one breath, through the first boos, and when he got to his main point that we must stop the war-mongering, nation building and world policing, to bring out troops home, a big part of the audience erupted into applause. His speech that was booed, ended with applause! Tell the whole story, please.” Our corporate-overlord-owned media keeps trying to make out that Paul is unpopular, when that is a total falsehood. There are several polls that show the he has the same chance of beating Obama as Romney. I would love to see a Paul-Obama debate. Romney vs. Obama, yawn, more of the same.

You have to give the booing people a pass in this case as they are from South Carolina, a state not exactly noted for its intelligent residents.

It has been said already but I will say it again…booing the golden rule? really? how sad. These are the “Christian” conservatives of the republican party? Do they not know who gave us the golden rule? Please, if you are Christian (or anything else) and believe in peace, hear Ron Paul out, do the research yourself away from the mainstream propaganda.

I think the media should be sued fo discrimination. The say Ron Paul isn’t electable when he has be elected 12 times.

Mr. Volack,

Did you even watch the debate yourself?
Funny that you didn’t report that only a partial male section of the audience booed Mr. Paul.
***Funny that you didn’t report on the LONGER and louder crowd boo of Mitt Romney later in the debate.***
Funny that you didn’t report on the several times the same audience cheered Ron Paul.

Your omissions of these key details demonstrate that you are neither fair nor balanced, but simply a lapdog hack.

Also, what is this ridiculous notion that the boos of a few partisan individuals who reserved seats in advance for a very selective event get to represent a meaningful position within the broader electorate. They don’t and to very selectively – as AGAIN you did not cover the boos of Mitt Romney’s comments – place such trivial happenings in major headlines is an epic failure of serious journalism.

- Leftist, voting in this particular election for Ron Paul

Voters who want wars, torture, assassinations, “humanitarian” bombings in oil rich countries, indefinite detentions, drone attacks that kill the innocent, erosion of civil liberties, domestic war on the people (drug war), out-of-control debt and spending, graft and greed, crony capitalism, pandering to special interests, bailouts, more of the same, must NOT vote for Ron Paul.

Voters who want peace, a humane foreign policy, restoration of civil liberties, an end to the war on drugs, sound money, balanced budgets, honesty, integrity and transparency in government, and a President wholly committed to Constitutional government can vote for Ron Paul.

Ain’t that difficult a choice.

Usa news is a joke!usa debates are a joke!The world laughs at the Usa!keep up the good work!

“what is right is not always popular and what is popular is not always right” – Albert Einstein

Ron Paul is right, and the fact that so many members of the media and government label him as extremist or crazy (because he truly believes the Constitution of the United States of America is government’s rule book) should be a terrifying indicator of not only the direction of our once great nation but where we are as a country at this very moment.

I hear commentators say that a vote for Paul would be a voe for Obama because Paul can’t win…I say, I vote for what I believe in. I believe in truth. I believe in what is right. Win or lose I will always stand by my convictions. That is what has made America great…standing up for what is right, not what is popular.

I can not believe how slanted the media has become. Every person I speak to does not understand the unconstitutional wars that we are in…. this has got to stop! Get out and show your support to this guy Ron Paul 2012

All politicians will say everything to please the voters ,,All of them have very good plans for america the question is which one of them is truthful and can keep thier promises? for me its RON Paul hes straight forward and frank. others just sweet lies and false promises,,well i know one who keep his promise its OBAMA when he says he will change america,,yeah he did,,to worst not for better,, and i hope people will have an effort to search about the presindential candidate to know the candidate and thier plan for economy,,not depend on whos famous,or who is leading on polls coz media brainwashed people,,,dont rely on them,, Its for our own future we cant do same mistake again for voting the wrong person,, RON PAUl 2012!!!! Ron Paul dont mind the people booing you they’re idiot!!
