No Ron Paul revolution at convention

TAMPA, Fla. — The Republican establishment has quelled the Ron Paul Revolution, at least for 2012.

Using a mix of charm and procedural hardball, Mitt Romney’s campaign and his allies who control the Republican National Committee have ensured that the Texas congressman will neither speak nor be formally nominated at next week’s convention. It’s a significant victory for Romney, who could have been faced with a raucous rebellion from the Paul crowd if he hadn’t extended an early, and diplomatic, olive branch to what’s become a key constituency.

The libertarian septuagenarian controls the state delegations from Nevada, Iowa and Minnesota. But a candidate needs five states to be officially recognized on the floor. Paul supporters have made claims to Louisiana, Massachusetts, Oregon, Oklahoma and Maine. But Romney’s coterie of lawyers skillfully used the rules and interpersonal negotiations to peel each away.

The 168-member Republican National Committee approved a report Thursday by the Romney-friendly blah blah blah blah.......click the link if you really care about how this charade ended.

Here's the REAL story...

Ron Paul has 7 plurality states won. Now that the RNC changed has their own rules to suit their own needs and made the criteria 8 plurality states won instead of 5 plurality states won in order to be accepted to the Republican Convention, this definitely shows, without a doubt, democracy is almost over in the US. Extremely fraudulent activity by Romney, the GOP and RNC has clearly occurred, yet the mainstream media does NOT accurately report what happened. And what also is FAILING here is your manipulative BS, DEATH ROW BLOW JOB.

What a bunch of CUNTS!


Your country is FINISHED...

Stephanopolus is part of the severely bias mainstream media. And that clip PROVES it.

So if Paul has been wronged so much, and there's so much overwhelming evidence of fraud and wrongdoing by the party, why isn't Paul screaming from the mountaintops about it, or threatening litigation, or at the very least, telling the Republican Party to go fuck themselves and running for either the President or his seat in congress as an independent?

I would think several words on the subject from the man himself would go a lot farther toward making some changes to that system than hundreds of his followers making asses of themselves on internet message boards. But no, you never hear a peep from the guy. Why? Because he needs the Republican party and all that sweet, sweet RNC re-election cash much more than the Republicans need him.

Dude doesn't walk on water, he's pretty much just another Republican. And at the end of the day, he'll be lining up to suckle at their teat with the rest of them.

First of all, Ron Paul was offered an ultimatum by the RNC a few days ago. The RNC would allow him to speak...but ONLY if he endorsed Romney. RP said, "No!"

Secondly, the reason why Paul doesn't fight back is because he CAN'T. The GOP, RNC and the bias mainstream media RUN THE SHOW, moron. And Ron Paul knows that. Also, he doesn't have the financial means to take them to court. Not to mention the fact that he'd be labelled a "sore loser." Pay attention.

Thirdly, the reason why RP doesn't run as an independent, is that he wouldn't stand a chance. Since 2008, he's not only DOUBLED his support base running as a Republican, but he literally had nearly 20% of the Republican delegates this year.

This post proves several things. But the most two important things it proves are, a) you're part of the American sheeple and don't know SHIT about politics and b) you wouldn't know Ron Paul's political platform from a hole in the wall.

He doesn't have any lawyers who support him and his cause? Not even one courageous, patriotic lawyer who places the good of his country above profit?

He can't because they'll call him names? What a pussy.

It looks as though you might have to do that...

The first thing we'll need to do is bulldoze those pesky mountains and then eliminate any wildlife.

And since our financial regulations are stricter than yours are, you'll ensure that your new financial institutions will run amok and partake in Fractional Reserve Banking, sell faulty mortgages and create an imminently-bursting financial bubble, so the ONLY people who'll be fucked are the general public! And of course, these bankers will get a bailout!

Shit, it's easy to rob a bank...when you own one!


USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
