**Charles Gibson goes down the line and confronts each of the candidates of what they have been accused of. My favorite part!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMYJ_vmwRDc
Please go to minute 8:45 when Charles Gibson lays out the accusations - Watch the look of shock on their faces! Of course the only one who Charles had nothing bad to say about was Dr. Paul (except he changed his party)
Guiliani -> You had to moderate an awful lof of your views to get within the mainstream of the Republican Party and that you dont believe now what you believed when you were Mayor.
Huckabee-> You have been accused of being a TAX AND SPEND Governor when you were in Arkansas and changing your beliefs now and chaning your beliefs now. (Best Look of SHOCK award!)
Romney -> I dont even have to go into how many times they have called you a flip flopper in terms of issues from when you were Governor of Mass.
Paul -> With respect to you, I dont know that you have changed much except your party. (Of course now the rest of them had to laugh)
Thompson -> You have been accused of running on a more conservative record for President than when he was in the Senate.
McCain -> (Looked like he wanted to get up and bash Gibsons face in) You have been acused of moderating your views on the Bush Tax policies in order to get in the mainstream of the party and on immigration you have moderated your views.
Does anyone else but me wish that these debate moderators would do more of that?? AND Not let the candidates slip out of answering tough questions with their fluffy responses that answer nada???
that was great!!! Moment of
that was great!!! Moment of truth
Ron Paul
Consistent and true for 20+ years!
And he keeps going and going and going and going and going and going...
Bumping
my own post. Sorry but I want that clip. :)
The Truth Will Set You FREE!
To Rudy - You changed your views since being mayor
To Huckabee - You changed your beliefs since being governor
To Romney – You’ve been a flip flopper
To Thompson – You have been accused of being less conservative when you were senator
To McCain - Your views have changed on policy
To Dr. Paul - WITH RESPECT TO YOU the only thing you have changed is your party affiliation ... Hmmmm ... LOL
To those whom don't know RP
This could sound as though he switched from the Democrat party to the Republican party...

Charlie Gibson did say that
Charlie Gibson did say that he ran as a Libertarian for president before at the end of his comment about RP.

Even so I don't know if that
Even so I don't know if that matters. I think right now to get the coverage we need it is all about the independent vote in NH. If he doesn't do better than expected as a cause that is winable I think we will be done.
I don't know what the media will think of as better than expected.
The more the pro-war field narrows the harder it will be for Paul to win. Unless we can finally get the message out...
That was awesome.
there was also tewo moments of absolute silence.
One was when he said "In rewspect to you Dr. Paul...." TOTAL SILEncE
Then when he schooled them on the oil price situation.
People are waking up. Its tough thought. Its like if a supersmart alien came to earth and tried to say "Hi". Lots o people wouldnt like that. And some wouldn't believe it.
Does my burka make my butt look fatwa?
Can someone get that short clip and post it?
I would like to email that one part to everyone I know about all the flip-flopping!
If anyone does this
Make SURE you note that RP's party switch was from one conservative party to another conservative party. To someone whom knows nothing of Ron Paul it could be misinterpretted as he having switched from the Democrats to the Repbulicans.

Gibson
does say that Dr. Paul ran as a Libertarian the last time he ran for President.
Also, I would love that clip too - Just that piece of it, if anyone can do it.
Does anyone have the skills
Does anyone have the skills for this request?
The only other thing I wish Charlie had done was say
Gentlemen, please stop with the laughing at Dr. Paul - These topics are serious to the American people, and I dont think that they appreciate the laughter.
Let them laugh. Many people
Let them laugh. Many people have told me how bad that makes them look.
You're wrong
Should the moderator not allow yelling or jaw clenching (McCain woud be gone). Contrary. The laughter is seen by the public and they get insight into the overall character of the candidates Laughing at another candidates views could go either way for them. Not only does it make RP's supporters sick, it will also make other people sick to watch such chilish behavior from someone who is seeking to govern our country.

The sad part is that a lot
The sad part is that a lot of Americans like people to be a-holes, because they do not realize how deep in the crap the country is in.
Take for instance when Mccain was all over romney, did you see that look on mccains face? To me it just made me see "slimeball" tattooed on Mccains forehead and I wanted to backhand his big oversized jaw, not because of what he said or to whom he said it, but because that look on his face like he was so much better than everyone else. It was sickening.
Everyone on that stage was sickening except Ron Paul. Its a shame what our political discourse has come to. They all, except RP, acted like 12 year olds and they deserve to be treated as such IMO.
