You all are joking right? Romney? It’s Ron Paul all the way. Interesting that Truthdig nor Huffington Post EVER mention him.

No doubt. There is a reason, John.

Truthdig is a great site, but it is also a rather partisan (Democrat/liberal) site. Not only is Ron Paul the biggest threat to the Mainstream Mafia, the neocons, and the other Republican candidates; he is also the only Republican candidate with a snowball’s chance in hell of defeating any Democrat you put him up against.

No other Republican candidate brings so many people from so many social and political backgrounds together under the same umbrella (that is to say, the huge majority of Americans opposed to perpetual war, corporatism, big brother statism, and the death of the Constitution). Therefore, it makes perfect sense for Truthdig, Huffington Post, The Daily Kommunist, et al., to give Dr. Paul the MSM-esque shaft.

Ron Paul should actually be named Truthdigger of the Millennium for his adamantly expressed willingness to abolish the IRS and the Federal Reserve, and for exposing the neocons, MIC, and other inconvenient truths at every turn; yet unfortunately for us Truthdiggers who are also Ron Paul supporters, he’s not a Democrat or liberal. And Truthdig is not about to roll out the red carpet for a conservative Republican — even the one who is the strongest on individual liberty and the most constitutionally ethical, humble, and peace-loving statesman of our time.

” perhaps its because its a ratings game for both of these blog sites?

I totally agree with John…
I have asked both Huffy and Truthdig to cover Ron Paul, the North American Union, the Amero and such but I get the same response as I do from all the local news channels and radio talk shows here in Portland….
I get NOTHING.

Just the way Romneys several supporters were photographed to make it look like he had a huge following, and how Ron Pauls 100’s of supporters were projected to be one guy in the rain…shows us how blatant people can be.

Its ridiculess.

The Neo-Cons are in a position of power…

We need to WAKE up !!

Romney is about as concerned a citizen of those without as GW.  Did you like the way he “slipped” it in, that people without insurance don’t pay taxes!  Really Mitt! Prove that! I didn’t hear him even MENTION the large corporations and degenerate RICH that don’t pay their fair share of taxes and many times none at ALL, undercut workers wages and don’t offer their lower wage” employees insurance.

Mitt and others like him use “social programs, i.e. W2 & Foodstamps” to force down the wages of EVERYONE but the very top executives by requiring those at the very bottom to accept positions which do nothing to lift those at the bottom up, but in fact, ensure that they will stay there forever.  The trickle up effect is already being seen with the pay of middle class positions growing stagnant.  Yet, these corps. make record profits.  Of course, they’ve ensured themselves a never ending supply of low wage workers by undercutting the safety net.

The article quotes:
“Still, when he was asked about healthcare, Romney rebuked conservative orthodoxy: He insisted that “tax exemptions” were not enough to cover the uninsured because “the people that don’t have insurance aren’t paying taxes.”

As a rule, Republicans don’t think much about people too poor to pay a lot in taxes. It’s another reason why Romney could pose a serious danger not only to Giuliani, McCain and Thompson, but also to the Democrats.”

While the middle class do pay an unfair portion of INCOME TAXES (remember that’s just one tax), it isn’t because of the POOR sucking the system dry, it’s because the RICH are scheming at every level to make sure they don’t pay AT ALL and then convieniently blaming the poor. It’s a facist tactic.

Sure, vote republican, and throw your raise and your paycheck out the windowon your way home from work.  As for Ron Paul, NO WAY, a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

My impression was quite different, but then I tend to favor things with real flavor.

Overall impression was a mixture of mirth and embarrassment. How on earth can there still be people in this country who take any of these “candidates” observations seriously?

Someday I suspect those people will feel a twinge of embarrassment too.

Like the folks who apologize now, because they voted for Bush.

However, in the unlikely event that Romney actually does become our next president, I hope he will return to his roots long enough to remember some of the teachings of his prophet Joseph Smith. Like, in the “last days” when the “Elders of the Church” will rise up and save the Constitution.
