"They are afraid of that which they cannot control, and to the extent that they feel that they cannot control him in those moments, the whole idea of freedom of speech is sort of like, "Well it's a good idea, BUT..."
“What the Republican National Committee did to Ron Paul was the height of rudeness and stupidity for this reason: Why would you alienate an individual who has the ability to attract a new generation of voters, who are already skeptical of your institution but are willing to at least listen through the vehicle of this individual and the words that he is saying? Why would you alienate them, get on the floor and not let them speak? Not have his name go up on the board and see the number of electoral votes that he receives? This is crazy!” - Michael Steele

Yes.
Or being boo'd for advocating the "Golden Rule" in front of a crowd predominantly composed of "Christians."

Don't be depressed about this, they pull the Jerry Springer USA chant all the time in situations like that. It would be like if american spies in russia chugging vodka right after they fix elections (hypothetical situation) it is an old false flag tactic to deceive those whom they are stealing the nation from, to act like americans. It is a false front, most if these 'americans' are probably foreign nationals. It is a fact the french revolution employed foreigners to do the dirty work, as well as if america is invaded it will be by russians, so russians, or some other foreigners could very have well been chanting USA. Who else could pull off such brazen disregard for american principles? The only logical conclusion is they are foreigners who know that their USA chanting will unnerve you. Don't give them that respect by being deoressed.

I agree 100% about what was done to Ron Paul and I was here to see some of it with my own eyes. It's detestable when it was his own party doing it to him.... His own party.. Hmmm.... You know, Paul could have used Steele's help a little....ahem... SOONER... Figures this hack comes out on the 'correct' side when coming out will make absolutely no difference to anyone.
He's been an establishment guy and the very head of the party that buried Paul. I can't help but think. despite the fact he lost his chairmanship in Jan 2011, he was sure there long enough to set the tone and stage for what Paul had done to him. Perhaps he's just lost absolutely all credibility with some folks..like me.
Paul needs friends to support him. I really can't stand these people who come out when it might score them some brownie points with people ( or so they think ) but they couldn't have been bothered to say Boo when Paul NEEDED this kind of thing being said the most.
Good catch.. S/F.. The Downs are for this piece of work. What a loser....and I hope Paul tells him so, directly.

What are the chances of Ron Paul standing on a Third Party ticket in November by the way?
