Don't say Fascism RON!! The Media doesn't like that word!!

They use it for nazi's. They prefer the term "socialism". It has a nicer ring to it.

Jefferson on the press

“Nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. Truth itself becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle. The real extent of this state of misinformation is known only to those who are in situations to confront facts within their knowledge with the lies of the day.”

Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.

That makes me amazingly happy, because I JUST posted about America being Fascist by the Wikipedia definition, about two weeks back.

Ron Paul wouldn't have known that anyways, but it's still AWESOME.

Ron Paul Uses the F Word

Is that okeh with you, Miss Manners?

("Oh no! Some people might get upset! Such provocative speech might alienate would be fellow travellers.")

Sic Semper Tyrannis

Ron Paul is just like

the energizer bunny,he just keeps goin and goin!

At least Obama KNOWS this:

"I know there is a criticism out there that my administration has somehow been spending with reckless abandon, pushing a liberal social agenda while mortgaging our children's future," Obama said.

But, of course, he'll do nothing to change it.

I think he will change it

I think MSM knows the public wants blood for Bush, and they are not going to get Bush, so they (the neocons and neolibs untied for a NWO) are delivering up what liberal media reefers, the right wing racist wackos, by...noting, Obama is doing what Bush was doing and Ron Paul was silent.. so why say something now? Point: Ron Paul is being rendered irrelevant for NOT speaking up when Bush was in office doing what Obama is doing, yet, Obama is doing is softer than Bush... so what is the reason for the tea parties? THEY are asking, while we the people are fighting for who has the loudest word (and no one is addressing the insults).

That IS what Fascism is...

Government leading and directing business.

This is exactly what happened in Nazi Germany when the government ordered businesses to manufacture war materials only.

I swear I have never heard Dr. Paul wrong on anything.

Pawnstorm

Fascism!? gasp gasp! I hate

Fascism!? gasp gasp!

I hate whenever these smarmy dimwits in the studios feign personal shock at their guests' words. Remember the night of the election when that fake swine Sheperd Smith was pretending to be upset with Ralph Nader over his comments about Obama?

Shepard Smith really creeps

Shepard Smith really creeps me out.

Fair interview

Good job Dr. Paul. Fair questions.

Fascism, Dr. Paul? Is that resposible to toss that word around?

@3:30 into the interview.

Answer: Yes!

Absolutely. When the

Absolutely.

When the president claims to have the power to fire any CEO of a private organization he chooses: that is fascism.

When the government continues to limit individual freedom: that is fascism.

When the government stations a military force on their own soil for the express purpose of crowd control: that is fascism.

When the government forces their citizens to submit to mandatory "voluntary" service while restricting their right to religion and free speech: that is fascism.

It would be irresponsible to not call the current trend of our government what it is: a blatant move toward a fascist state.

And not just an "economic" fascist state, either...

Exactly, but in his position, Ron Paul cannot say that.

I am surprised

the interviewer wasn't aware of corporations being owned and bought out by government as being described as a form of facsism...
oh well, RP got to educate him and to the host's credit - he allowed RP to
respond - I seem to remember this guy in media always being cordial to
RP and giving him time to speak (unlike others in media)
A very good response by Ron Paul.

April 15 - RP Revolution ... End the Fed .... end taxes - smaller government .....

I am so glad

that this host (i did not catch the name) let him explain economic fascism as opposed to militaristic fascism. Most hosts would not have.

It is important for everyone who has the time off tomorrow to go to the parties and teach our goals and concerns.

End Inflation
Cut Spending
Audit the Fed
End the Fed
End the War
End the Empire

Time to get to work.

Thanks Weenis for the YT

:o)

thanks for the link

-I saw another Tuber has already posted a video critical of RP using 'fascism'. Rate this thing up.

Obama's speech was at 11:30 a.m.

Ron Paul will be on at 4:30 EST on MSNBC with reaction to the speech ( apparently Dr. Paul was on CNN directly after the 11:30 speech)

Rick Santelli Father of the Tea Parties Vs. Steve Leisman Smackdown 4/13/09
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUAmviwQO3M

Don't trust him.

We all have spent over a year declaring issues of liberty, freedom and rights with little coverage from "the press".

A no name hack from the CME comes along and vomits some talk about a need for a "tea party" because of the "stimulus" bill and what happens? The entire country is spontaneously having "tea parties". It's surprising that this guy had so much impact. Rather, I think there's someone else manipulating this tea party nonsense that has the full intention of ending it with nothing other than exhausting those that are part of it.

My opinion is this; the tea party effort is not of central importance but will give the neo-cons a chance to shoot their mouths off about vague and nondescript issues of "spending" while never addressing the issues we know are important. This month will come and go and the neo-cons will be have spent their fury and will go right back to watching TV or falling for some nonsense that the politicians promise about "reform".

On the other hand.......I hope we make a great impact for good. We must gain hold and control these "tea parties".

What do you think?

Foreclosure relief is just another bank bailout.

Someone needs to ask Leisman - how is someone who has a $300K mortgage better off staying in a house that is worth $200K? The homeowner gives the house back to the bank, and their net worth is immediately increased by $100K, and the bank takes the loss.

Foreclosure relief is just another bank bailout.

you will have to give him

you will have to give him time for his handlers to type up a response.

Ever notice how childish and obtuse Mr. Liesman becomes when he goes off script?

Rick Santelli has Always Been Supportive of Ron Paul

and Free Market Capitalism and Libertarianism. Why would you call him a tool bag? Are you on the right website? Maybe Move on.org would be a better choice for you.

GREAT NEWS

No wonder he has been pretty quiet, this is quite large.

That is interesting, he will

That is interesting, he will predictably disagree with most of the things Obama says, you know because it is total bullshit... But most of the sheeple out there will be like, "Oh look at this crazy guy, why don't the Republicans just give Obamaa chance." To do what rob the American people blind and destroy the standard of living we all grew up in?? Sure, sounds great.

F.A. Hayek, was right, sadly so few know of his warnings. It is only a matter of time as America slips further and further towards central planning and totalitarian control via taxation, welfare state, and para militarization of police forces to control the populace.

Ain't that America, you and me baby, ain't that America, home of the free, yeah! Little pink houses (smoldering and burnt to the ground).

I'm gonna break my rusty cage and run.

I listened to it...he made

I listened to it...he made the dreaded mistake of speaking the truth in calling the economic plan fascism. It absolutely is, but that didn't stop the host from getting indignant for a second until Dr. Paul explained exactly what corporatism/fascism is. It will of course be taken out of context and used in an attempt to discredit Ron but for those who hear the entire conversation it will hopefully drill some sense into them.

Actually, host was not bad, not like MSNBC lady...

... who actually had a solution of "let's start a war!".. ;)

I thought that he showed a bit of mock horror, then gave Dr. Paul more than a minute to elaborate (and, at the end, emphasized that he intended to do that and thanked our good Doctor for explanation).

In any case, the fine line between National-Socialism (Hitler) and International Socialism (Stalin) is too exaggerated in most people's minds today; it seemed to be much less so back in 30s. (Hmm, googling for Mussolini praising FDR I also found another FDR fan in modern politics, "My dear former President and current PM" Mr. Putin -- yes, I am Russian! :) : http://blogs.usatoday.com/oped/2008/01/putins-role-mod.html ).
