But it's a good sign. People are standing up to this the bullshit, not backing down and being hushed up so easily.

    Paranoid? About what exactly? They just demanded actual answers to their questions...something the mainstrem press knows nothing about. There's probably always going to be defenders of our corrupt government like yourself no matter how much you're being lied to.

    anyone can ask any question they feel like asking...and, anyone can decide not to answer any question which they are asked...

    no one is being lied to. there was never a denial. there was never a misrepresentation.

    if you slap the republican label on ANY candidate, there are those people, here, who would not vote for that person just because of that label...not based on credentials, actions, plan, etc. of the candidate...

    and it wasn't a valid question when they asked why pakistan is not a target in the war on terror when the head of their isi (their cia) wired mohammed atta $100,000 shortly before 9/11????

    are you saying this is posted just b/c he's a republican? i don't understand the point to your last statement

    and no, i guess they weren't lied to in those clips...they just didn't have their questions answered and then were escorted out by police
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way

    I'm actually more bothered by people who want to vote for Giuliani than I am by Giuliani himself.

    why were they escorted out by the police? well, the last time something was made clear to me and i didn't accept that, i was asked to refrain from such behavior and then escorted to jail.

    the point of my last statement is pretty obvious. i'm not pro-republican, we all know that, but there are people here that would berate and bemoan a republican candidate for the simple fact that he/she is a republican candidate instead of basing it on the merits. the statement was a general statement...not one that went to the video.

    i didn't say anything about the validity of the questions. i just said that no one was lied to in the video clip as it was presented.

    let's get a definition of "large chunk" here. let's not overstate what something is or is not.

    and there's lots of ppl who berate democrats for it, too...and those who give them a free pass

    what was made clear? to stop asking questions the person didn't like?

    READ!

    the issue here is NOT how democrats are treated by republicans/the "right". don't deflect to something else.

    dude, i'm not even arguing against him...but, i'm not surprised that he has failed to post something substantive about the issue at hand (the issue that HE and his "significant" other raised).

    I don't really get what the issue here is. A bunch of guys with a clear agenda ganged up on Rudy's rep who seemed to have no idea what they were talking about. The rep was exceedingly polite while these guys were going nuts shouting down anybody else who tried to ask questions. Frankly it seems obvious to me that the real reporter towards the end of the video was right when he said that this dude was acting like an activist and not a journalist, which is obvious since he clearly is an activist and not a journalist.

    I was ready to say "RIGHT ON SISTAH", fully expecting the vid to be something about the immigration bill...then you just HAD to get my eyes rolling :)

    still, i'll cut and paste your "standing up to the bullshit" take in the immigration thread, if there is one.
    And you ask me what I want this year
    And I try to make this kind and clear
    Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
    Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
    And desire and love and empty things
    Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
