Ron Paul draws 600-700, Romney 500 - What the Huck!
The last night before the Iowa Caucus had Ron Paul drawing the most support among Republican candidates. Dr. Paul drew between 600-700 supporters in an overflow appearance, including over 100 veterans. Mitt Romney drew 500 supporters, earlier he was jetting between cities throughout Iowa making last minute appearances, and Mike Huckabee was nowhere to be seen in Iowa at all, as he made an appearance on the Jay Leno show crossing over the writers strike picket lines.
Huckabee skipping the last night before the caucuses might prove to be a huge mistake as he blew off the Iowa voters for the glamour of a National televison show on the West Coast. Might he also forget fly over country if elected President - in my opinion yes. Huckabee's choice between the Iowa voters and the Jay Leno Show is surely a mistake, and reveals deep inside Huckabee's character. Is he really for midwest values, or is more likely just an act to sucker Iowa voters. Just another example of Huckabee fakery.
Huck is practising his TV skills for his next career...

Fox News Guard Bodyslams Ron Paul Supporter on Hannity & Colmes
I just got back from Des Moines to See Ron Paul Tonight (1/2/08) at the Veterans Rally. Ron Paul did an awsome job, but that is not the point of this article. Just after Ron's speech, I saw something that made me wonder if I was in 1940's Nazi Germany.
If you watched Fox News tonight, you know that they were taping all the shows live from the "Racoon River Brewery" in Des Moines. This bar adjoins the Hotel Fort Des Moines where Ron Paul's Rally was held. (I wonder if this was a coincidence).
After Ron's speech, we heard another guy (I don't know his name so I'll call him Bob) say that "Hannity and Colmes was right next door so we decided to follow him there. We were the first Ron Paul people to get to the bar and see the last 20 minutes of Hannity and Colmes being taped live. There were quite a few other Non-Ron Paul people in the bar already. My two brothers and I went in and stood behind Hannity and Colmes. I had several Ron Paul posters in my hand and was going to raise one of them up when someone from Fox News caught a glance at me and started bitching at me and insisted I put them down. He then radio'ed to one of the security guards that there are to be no Ron Paul signs displayed. Bob, who I don't think knew this, came over adjacent to me a couple minutes later and held up his Ron Paul sign. In less than one second the guard farthest from the door ran over and tackled Bob as he fell through the double doors and shattered the glass he was holding. Let me tell you, I have never seen anybody in this country so ridiculusly assualted just for holding up a political sign for probably less than 1 second. When I got home tonight, I watched the last 20 minutes of "Hannity and Colmes"s that my wife had taped to see if I would get a glimpse of the assault, but they had used the 5 second delay to cover it up with some other clip at the time. You will however, hear the crowd boo'ing the guards right at the time this happened because it was such an excessive attack. It was 49 minutes into the show and shortly after it happened you will see the attacking guard in a white shirt crouching over and walking in behind Hannity and Colmes back into his position.
I don't have the video of the actual attack, but I did take video about 10 minutes later when a group of more Ron Paul supporters started flashing their signs from the outside to get the attention of all the Fox News Big Shots inside. They were in the middle of being told by two other security guards to get out of there when I started taping them. Within this tape is discussion of the incident inside the bar that had just occured and shows some Ron Paul supporters angered over Bob's incident. Also, a couple of the Ron Paul supporters are asking why the hell they have to remove themselves from a public sidewalk.
This incident just shows how scared Fox News is to give any attention to Ron Paul. I don't know if Fox News chose this location next the Ron Paul's rally on purpose or what. I didn't watch the whole show so I'm not sure if they had any coverage of Ron Paul's rally. Could this have been an attempt by Fox News to try to get some of Ron Paul's people shown in an unruly manner - if so it didn't work because I saw nothing done by an Ron Paul supporter that was out of line in any way. The B.S. attack on Bob was the only thing completely ridiculus.
You can watch the video I took at the following address:

This must be Fox News's idea of freedom and liberty. They and the rest of the MSM need to be exposed for what they really are. Thank God we have the internet or we would all be doomed.
Somebody help him
SUE...Any Lawyers in here? Lots of money from Fox.
If This is true
I want to see a news report and police dept. filing.
If it were me that had been tackled, the lawyers would already know about it.
Keep us updated.
Where was the pub owner?
Was the place closed to the outside public? This story is just amazing to me.
Ron Paul "Sign Wave Across the USA" -- November 5th!
No, They let a few of us in
No, They let a few of us in right away, but then once they saw all the people with Ron Paul signs build up, they started trying to get them away. They decided to ban the signs after they saw I was going to raise mine. They were not going to let them be shown on TV.
they distort, you comply
The only time I ever watch Fox is when Ron Paul is on.

What is begun in anger, ends in shame.
I don't even watch Fox News then...
... If Ron Paul is on, I hope he sways some neo-con sympathizers. As for me, I'm already converted - so don't want to give them any ratings.
I'll watch the 'roundtable' if they cave on You Tube.
Simply Unbelievable
"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, THE TRUTH, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 8:36, 32; 14:6

What about others?
Were other signs allowed from other campaigns?
The other people in there
The other people in there did not just come out of a rally so they probably didn't have any. Apparently, Hannity turned around when he heard the guy get slammed through the door and saw the sign sitting on the floor. He gave a big pissed off look in our direction. Based on their recent bias against Ron Paul, I have no doubt that these actions were only due to the fact they were Ron Paul signs. I heard the one guard tell the other guard (after the fox news guy informed one of them) that signs are now to be banned. This tells me that they had no rule against signs until they saw mine.
This was a serious blunder for Huck
It may cost him Iowa.
The Leno show wasn't very memorable and he poked fun at Huck for being large and living in a mobile home on the lawn.
Guests at Leno:
Huckabee, Emeril Lagazi, and Chingy
It just didn't mix and the big story wasn't Huckabee, it was the return from the writers strike
The Letterman show was WAY funnier, plus David looked like Sigmund Freud.
You just can't beat the lineup that Ron Paul had:
Ron Paul
Bea Arthur
Sex Pistols
Now THAT was a show that had magic
Bea Arthur?? No.
Betty White was an unannounced walk-on guest, but the other guest for the night was Tom Cruise. Tom didn't stick around for RP, which disappointed me a bit, but I heard later that he did drop by Ron's room at some point during the evening and had some appreciative comments for Ron on some issues.

"When fascism comes to this country it will be draped in the Flag and bearing a cross" Ron Paul (quoting Sinclair Lewis in reference to Mike Huckabee's "Floating Cross Ad")
I have seen some dumb mistakes, He is truly Gomer pile!
The weak and the strong can not keep the same company!!
This nut crossed the picket lines to be on Jay Leno's show! How stupid cold he be. If you are a blue collar union man, you see that he just doesn't give a damn about the union!
His son cuts a puppy's throat and then stones it to death and the excuse is he was putting it out of it's misery! What? Go to pet smart and pay 2 dollars for the mange treatment.
Then the Huckster talks about getting into a bath tub with a razor blade and cutting your wrist. Is this nut plain psycho or what?
Any many who votes for this liar is truly not done there homework! The huckster is broke and he knows it!
He is as fake as a million dollar bill!
Vote for honesty, vote for Ron Paul!!!!!!
I do not see why no one
I do not see why no one checks his record. Maybe the CFR plan is to have him win, go against Hillary or Obama, and then release the fact that he was indicted 14 (FOURTEEN) times as Governor for misappropriating funds, and convicted (CONVICTED) five times. Then they can get Obillary elected. This is so ridiculous.
As for Larry King, I guess the Powers that Be (gone) did not like what he said. It must have freaked them out pretty bad to have to throw Suze in there.
Spot on

You're exactly right. I can't imagine there would be any other motive for all the Huckabee hype lately. Also to distract everyone from Ron Paul's message.
Huck crossing WGA Union Picket line.
That makes Huck a SCAB to many many folks across this country. I wonder if the media will even report on it. Huck is as fake as they come. He's Hillary scale fake.
Liar, liar, your XXXXL pants are on fire.
Amen
Hes a joke. They will tare him down for mcain to move up through. His suporters are being led like sheep to slaughter.
DONT WORRY
We have the holy cause of liberty on our side !
And peace
Peace too is on our side.
