    Yes FDR called it trading with the UK, but in reality it was aid. The UK never paided a cent for any of the supplies.

    point being it is NOT military involvement,
    although i'm not sure Ron would go for free aid either.
    Maybe. I think that is actualy a call for congress to make, anyhow.

    Either way, the point still stands.
    :D

    The other candidates do seem to get a rather different approach and treatment altogether, that is well documented and quite apparent.

    Strike one...thanks for coming out...please try again.

    hehe

    what are you talking about. they slamed McCain a couple of months ago also on his views. he doesn't get alot of attention (atleast, not as much as he should)

    if i was a ron paul supporter, i would like the fact that he is being talked abotu in the mass media. it means something is happenning.

    It is great. It's just refreshing to see an interviewer actually take an interest approach instead of a grill and cook approach. Nobody does well when they are being attack interviewed. The media should not "attack" people. Let the guest talk, and let people make their own minds up whether or not the person is worth the time. I don't need ol Wolf Blitzy dealing me a slice straight from the get go. Sure... ask the tough questions but let the guy speak in full sentences without interruption for a bit.

    Blitzy like so many many others cut the guy off when he starts making legitimate talking points, and they change issues midstream. It's chaos interviewing/reporting and it's not productive.

    Fox is even worse. They did a bit on one word answers that was sheer lunacy reporting
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    i think that problem iS that the media is trying to be hard now since a couple of years ago they were seen as not challenging enough.

    That's quite possible. I suppose how long it persists is the deciding factor, and the media is beginning to soften after the initiation phase so to speak, so that does lend credibility to your observations.

    I'd agree with that.
