Amazing Final Statement from Paul to Hannity - The Coupe de Grace

Don't you guys realize what Paul has just done?
Not only did he get a large amount of speaking time (forcibly)
But he also made a strong statement to Hannity and Luntz.
The final statement being I've got better things to do than to talk with a couple of Neo-Cons.
(edit he didn't literally say it, but Hannity understood what he said FIGURATIVELY)
What's more important? The rEVOLution!
I think walking out on Hannity is going to give Paul some extra press time tomorrow, not everybody does that. In fact, this explains why Luntz and Hannity were EXTRA sour.
So don't get mad at Paul for giving up 5 minutes of Fox air time, he may get extra air time tomorrow INCLUDING other channels playing his strong debate clips.
Controversy is a good thing. Plus he showed that he could make a statement to Fox without even having to say a word.
What a final death blow, and if other stations pick up on this, they too can discredit Luntz and his polling techniques as if some of them have their own mind will say that he is wrong as well.
It's all about blowback, and I don't think Fox has learned anything about it. Typical Neo-Cons.

I agree
IMO: The other news networks, who compete with Fox News, will see this as an opportunity to garner more viewers...US!
They're going to interview Ron Paul a lot, so all us Ron Paul fans will stop watching Fox and watch them instead.
They know we're loyal and very large in numbers. This is a great opportunity for them to get us on our "good list".
Again, this is just my opinion.
I don't agree at all
I think Dr. Paul has had a lot of supporters in his ear telling him to be angry at Fox network - this works great with Dems and Independents but they probably don't watch Fox anyway. So how many new supporters are made by getting a bit of attitude when most Republicans don't understand why he has that attitude? I would guess he looks like Michael Moore to a lot of them or slightly like that.
I think this refusing to speak to Hannity is something he can't afford to do and it makes us look fringey and out of the mainstream of the party. Maybe being angrier will make him seem more 'leaderly', but he should talk to them at least.
Glad he snubbed those twits...
Once again he WON the poll....and he snubbed em'......LMAO....
I would have liked to see him rub Hannity's face in winning the poll,but I''m sure Hannity was waiting to pounce on him for the rousing in NH.
He tried to edge it in after saying that RP wasn't going to interview with them,but his "tippy the turtle" counterpart ,Colmes, accidently spoke over him drowning him out......aww Sean looked so disappointed..
More please
Is there a video or transcript of what they said?
UUHHHGGG i missed it!!! I
UUHHHGGG i missed it!!! I cant stand Hannity, he should watch out for snows gonna come a flying!!

I'm wondering too
video available?
Hannity and Luntz can go F' themselves
The good doctor doesn't need to give them the time of day
I dont even know
what I'm resonding to.
Just bury and flag the "why we will lose post."
It is either a psy op a truther or a idiot who doesn't understand psychological "blowback" (word your headlines positively when refering to the campaing. Never doubt that we can win and don't ever put NLP statements such as (we will lose) in a post.
FLAG IT, I'M TIRED SOMEONE MAY WANT TO CHECK THIS GUYS HISTORY WHO POSTED IT.
You Are Right! The Oldest Trick
crackers4paul
I study NLP too. Who are these people and how come no one calls them on this.
It'll be
non stop, big head Hume yelling at Ron and that wacky Mormon, Romney talking about the Ahminijad briefing.
Romney statement
The only thing worse than Romney's statement was your statement of calling Mormon's "Wackey."
You have a right to your opinion, but what you are doing is hurting Dr. Paul.
The "Mormons", in Utah are one of Ron Paul's largest financial donor groups per capita. Idaho, another Mormon majority state is right up there.
On super duper Tuesday; Utah, with its Mormon population majority, will probably give Ron Paul his largest vote percentage.
So please, don't offend the Mormons away from our campaign -- the Constitution allows us Mormons the right to worship Jesus as The Christ, as our personal Lord and Savior, as the Holy Ghost inspires us.
The New World Order takes great pride in dividing brother against brother, Christian against Christian, neighbor against neighbor; divide and defeat.
For each us, the goal of saving the Constitution, which hangs by a thread, is uppermost. For us to do this, we have to be respectful towards one another, and seek to see what brings us together.
Regarding Mitt's comments against Ron Paul on Iran; I was personally very disppointed in MItt; what do we expect from another CFR agenda candidate? If Mitt finishes third on Tuesday behind McCain and Huckabee during the MI proimary; he will probably drop out.
Joe Pesci for VP, NO JOKE
For several reasons. Joe Pesci doesn't F*%C around! He gets things done, period. Nobody will laugh at him then. "How am I funny? funny like ha ha? funny like queer? Funny like a clown because I obey the constitution? Tell me how I'm funny"! Plus, he always carries a baseball bat. Screw snowballs at Hannity. Snowballs are for wussies, Pesci's got baseball bats. Lets watch those neo-cons laugh then. Even though Huckabee has Chuck Norris, Pesci already has his hole dug in the dessert, end of story. Yeah, Huckabee can play a pretty weak bass guitar, Pesci knows how to operate an uzi (Israeli made might I add). Don't get me wrong, Pesci is fairly peaceful, but don't laugh at him and he sure as s**t wont let those wankers laugh at Ron Paul. Think about it...
Chuck Norris fears Joe Pesci
Fuhgeddaboutit.
Joe Pesci?!?
What's a grit?
Infomercial gang
GenBeau that focus group...I swear they were on the verge of chiming out in unison.. "...just set it..and FORGET IT!"
I wish I knew.
I kept turning off and on TV waiting for DR. Paul to be on but trying to avoid watching Putz and Hamity. A Ham and Putz sandwich of vomit I can't stomach. It gets my BP up knowing people fall for this obvious crap.
I could have avoided 30 minutes of turning the TV on and off.
putz and hamity
that's classic

They Should
Be covering this justified snub on the news tomorrow. Unfortunately the "racist news letters" will get rehashed over and over as it pertains to coverage of Dr. Paul. The Anderson 360 show was doing it in a more aggressive way while we were all watching Fox. Ultimately, this so called negative coverage will be a good thing in my opinion.
RP snubs Hannity
I loved it! He owes his supporters, not Hannity! - another example of Dr. Paul's integrity!
I used to listen to Hannity on the radio, but haven't in quite a while. I realized after a while that talk radio is like a pacifier for those who wish America would return to its constitutional roots, but talk is just that - talk. I got tired of having my hopes lifted only to realize that talk radio WANTS people to JUST TALK.
Now that the rEVOLution is taking action, all of a sudden, talk radio "conservatives" are against us. To me, this is proof that they are all part of the same team bent on ignoring the constitution to establish themselves as the authorites and us as the servants who need their input.
Go Ron Paul!!!
"Only by pride cometh contention." Proverbs 13:10
Right on!
Rush drones on and on with all his conservative, sound like Dr. Paul talk and then he says something as negative as he can drum up about Dr. Paul. But today when I heard him, he was gentler. I think he doesn't want to get the Fox treatment. But I give it to him anyway. And Boortz. What a huge phony he is. All these neocons that we used to think we belonged with have been EXPOSED by Dr. Paul.

HELPPPPPPP - I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING AT THAT PIC
You guys are soooooo great!
BUMP IT UP
Bless that supporter
Man that was FUNNY!
That is the best laugh I
That is the best laugh I have had all day, thank you. :)
Confused
Are you saying that it will be news that Ron Paul wasn't interviewed after the debate, or did something else happen?
They wanted to interview him
But he went to the post-debate party with the supporters instead.
where's the vid?
Could you post the link?
OMG - I turned off fox - did I miss a great interview??
I didnt think he was going to be talked to after the debate - did I miss something good - ANY LINKS....
WWWAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Nope
That's why it was so great, he declined to be interviewed by Hannity
Tiny audience
.
This is a small footnote to a small event, at least on the national scale. Only the die-hard supporters of candidates even watch the Fox debate, or any other. It is ourselves and the supporters of the other candidates who get all worked up. The vast majority of Americans, if they are watching TV at all, are watching something else.
there were 71 pages of debate comments
on msnbc - sure there were TONS of rp supporters but i was surprised at the amount of people that gave that list the pros and cons of each candidate and were veering toward Ron Paul- saying "he won this one in my opinion" etc- they sounded like waking undecideds- theres 10 more months with Dr Paul who will only look cleaner as the other goofs get muddy. The Revolution is looking GOOD.
True. Gotta send the clips viral, then.
I am always amazed when I try to engage people with a "what did you think of the debate" and get the deer-in-the-headlights stare. But we can send around the great clips. The doc was on fire tonite.
Tiny brain
Go complain to someone who really cares what you have to say, you know nothing!
It's sad when it's real easy
It's sad when it's real easy to determine who's relatively new to the board.
Remember the boycott!
Ron Paul for President!!!
"Dr. Paul remembers the boycott and you should too", in the words of Barry Goldwater jr.
Good for Dr. Paul
I think it was a great move. Whether or not it gets any coverage doesn't matter. It was just Ron's way of saying FU to Fox and I'm glad he did.
Do the quotes mean he actually said that?
I did a double take when I read your post because it looks like you are directly quoting Dr. Paul. After reading through some other posts I realized you are paraphrasing.
Just to let you know, one reader was confused.
please answer the question, already...
we're really wanting to know if he "said" those words. [not clear]
No
Nope, but he did say it figuratively
That's kick ass
By the way that backroom they had there with all these "retards". IF that's a representation of the republican party and people who make decisions I am amazed this country is still a superpower.
IT looked like a class with special kids.
Did they all leave in the short bus
licking the windows!!!! I'm not cleaning the bus this time its someone else's turn!!!!
I AGREE! That's the BEST that Fox could come up with?
HAHAHAHA! At the beginning of the focus group, he asked who they thought won the debate and they said Thompson, who suprisingly gave some really good answers and took Huck to the mat on several occassions! Then he asked who they thought was the loser, and they said Ron Paul, yet he WON the post-debate text message poll AGAIN! THAT WAS SO FUNNY! He also asked them if they thought that Ron Paul should have been invited to the debate and most of them agreed that he should have been included! At least these people are fair minded in some respect, much more so than FOX at least! WHAT LEMMINGS!
Did you hear that lady saying how Thompson gave up a Hollywood career to join the Presidential candidacy and then they all shot her down saying that up until tonight, he was acting like he had been almost forced into joining!
what comment are you talking about?
Did he really say that? I hope he did, because I think Ron needs to create a controversy, something the juveniles at Fox will think they can use to make themselves look tough and powerful but which will actually blow up in their faces and give Ron a bunch of free airtime. Fox News is only still watched by the hopelessly brainwashed anyways, and there aren't near enough of them to win the Presidency. If Ron can tangle with Fox, he can keep CNN and MSNBC more sympathetic for a little longer and try to maximize his press while those networks try to use him to bring down Fox. In the end, all the networks will turn on him unless one completely jumps ship from the CFR boys, but the longer he can keep getting interviews the better off he will be.
You mean
".......the better off WE will be."
This DailyPaul takes soooooooooo long to post a comment. I almost give up every time. Almost not worth posting.
Interesting point
We'll see what happens - but you're hoping the media covers the fact that Dr. Paul wouldn't talk to the media. Seems a little incestuous. Dr. Paul is not running against Fox - he needs to take advantage of every opportunity to let voters hear from him directly, and not let Hannity speak for him.
