Tom Woods on the RNC Ron Paul "Tribute Video"

from http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0812/80067.html

There have been months of previously unreported, behind-the-scenes phone calls and meetings between Romney and Paul acolytes to try to build bridges and reach compromise agreements...

Paul campaign manager John Tate and campaign chairman Jesse Benton negotiated with Romney confidantes Ben Ginsberg and Ron Kaufman about how to handle the contested delegations...

So now we know who 'negotiated' this crummy deal.

This is soooo comical!
As the delegates sit and watch the GOP-Edited-This-is-Ron-Paul-Video;

....They will be trying their hardest not to laugh aloud....
...There'll be snickers, hushed coughs, and smirks as they lay in wait to pounce upon the unsuspecting "Old Guard" with a floor nomination.

I remember the "propaganda-public-school-movies" I and my classmates had to "endure"......later on we'd be laughing hysterically at the attempt to foist such "fairytales" upon us.

This is right up there with:
"JUST SAY NO TO DRUGS"...Hahahahhahahahah!
This "article" is a riot!
Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill.

Thanks for a humorous morning.

Was there any more proof of this 'RP Tribute Video' than just Rockwell's blog post? If there is I must have missed it.

if this actually happens ...
and everyone isn't pissed about it - something is greatly wrong internally.

For the GOP to not allow Dr Paul to speak and think they are doing something special like this to accommidate all you RP supporters so you will vote for Romney.

This whole dishonest party is one giant charade.

Please have nothing to do with this.

when it is all said and done - vote third party.

You're telling me there is no Santa Claus?

toms right

asking for money to get the delegates to Tampa? So the delegates can influence the Republican platform...does anyone REALLY believe, with all the cheating and suterfuge, that RP delegates will have any influence at all?

I took off the rose colored glasses many years ago.

Honor him with some Ken Burns effects shots of him with Reagan, some moving inspirational music, fade to black with "Service 1978-2012" and essentially declare that he is pushed off to retirement in a positive way.

Not sure if this is sad or so what for us. I can imagine regular ole neocons inciting his name in a decade the way Goldwater is bashed around.

Folks, The more this plays out the more it becomes in your face obvious that they are going to use Ron Pauls Revolution and his idea's to make THEMSELVES look good/popular among the masses so they have a shot at winning the election.
I hope like hell you delegates take it to their ass at the convention because they are gonna do everything possible to make it look like the Revolution and Romney are United.
Please do not sit quietly while they do this garbage....

Bingo.

Ron Paul is the only statesman today, the only individual that could have sat with the Founders in the Continential Congress, the Confederation Congress and the Constitutional Convention. The rest of these bozos are so dumb and don't understand the basics of free government that the Founders would have laughed them out of the room if they tried to enter. These dimwits would make Alexander Hamilton look like an anarchist!

With this being understood, Ron Paul should be one of the main speakers at the convention. Any deal for less than this is truly idiotic. And I don't give a damn about instead getting Rand a big slot. It's time for Rand to stand on his own two feet.

Ron has not endorsed Romney for president.
