Ron Paul Is Talking To Himself
SNUBBED FROM FOXNEWS DEBATE, TEXAS CONGRESSMEN HOLDS HIS OWN EVENT
FITSNews - January 7, 2008 - For all you rabid Ron Paul crazies out there, take a chill pill (and whatever other pharmaceutical cocktails you’ve been prescribed) and relax. As it turns out, this article is all about sticking up for your kooky candidate and his right to be included in major presidential debates. Sure, Dr. Paul is a more than a little fruit-loopy at times, but any candidate with a stripper and some hookers on his volunteer team is A-OK in our book. Oh, and he has a blimp, too, people.
Anyway, apparently FOX News didn’t see the merits of any of those things, and declined to allow Paul to participate in its nationally-televised debate last night. Momentarily dispensing with one’s pre-existing bias for or against blimps, strippers and hookers, the fact remains that Paul is currently polling ahead of one of the candidates who was invited to attend last night’s FOX debate (and is tied with another), and is currently kicking all of his Republican rivals’ asses in fundraising.
Given the fact that we’ve been diagnosed ”bullshit-intolerant” here at FITSNews, we don’t watch many political debates. Besides, we’re on week thirteen in our quest to win a fourth consecutive Super Bowl on Madden ‘08, and we had to dispose of the Cowboys, Titans and Eagles last night.
Having said that, if we ever decide to watch a debate, we’d like to hear from everybody. FOX News had no business excluding Ron Paul from its presidential debate. We’re not sure what motivated their decision, nor do we particularly care what they’ve said by way of justifying it. It was wrong, and that’s all there is to it. Ron Paul may be a little nutty, but he’s definitely earned a seat at the big boys’ table.
