  4. Thanks for posting this! I linked to it on the comment section of another article before i realized you already had it.

    As I said on the other thread, thank you to Jon Stewart for doing the job of the bought and paid for national media who is in the same bed as the government, the gop, and the democratic parties.

    we really all should give jon stewart as much attention as possible on this issue -- he may be the only national media figure besides the judge and stossel who actually gives ron paul some coverage. he posted about this on twitter too, so we should all hit up his twitter, email, comments on the daily show, etc to show we support him giving paul a fair shake!

    i still remember a couple years ago when he told paul that he was far too honest to be in politics, and he didn't see how paul kept being reelected....

  5. Ron speaks the Truth, and that's a magnet. Though we've had to wait a few hundred years to be moved again by the power of the real thing, it sure is better than some fake image of "Hope and Change" or empty,deceitful MSM press. This time, we've got some history and a voting record to recommend the man -- 30 years of ALWAYS standing for one thing and voting unwaveringly on a single premise: the Constitution. Wow, how novel, and it works, too! Ron Paul 2012!

  6. Hilarious, but why does the video lock up at 6:05?

  7. That was PERFECT!!!! I love every way he pointed stuff out. "How did Ron Paul become the 13th floor in a hotel?" Nice.

  8. We should all unite behind Paul's campaign. Working for him, giving him money on money bomb days, posting about him on website articles to get out the truth, etc should all be done as much as possible. Don't view it as the typical short term political power grab -- the better he does in a race that is almost fixed, the more people he reaches and converts about austrian econ!

    I am sure that is how paul views it, too. Just look at the massive difference in support, especially among the youth, for Paul. His ideas are spreading like wildfire, and this is the best stage he will have to do it!

    The Revolution is growing!

  9. Damn. It's incredible that these media pundits, aka, yellow journalists, can be so obvious about it!

  10. Funny, didn't EPJ criticize Leibowitz for having lunch with Geithner? Isn't Leibowitz's brother work for an agency?

  11. Just hold the doors for a moment, think about from the newsguys perspective. If Ron gets to be president, they are going be reporting on the weather 24 hours a day or the amount of potholes on main st. I'm mean there is only so many casey anthonys or natalie holloway stories and if we can't fill that time in with pictures of the President golfing, wtf are we going to do all day?

  12. Jon Stewart goes to the top of the class.

    He was the only major commentator to actually defend the public mobbing of his buddy Anthony Weiner; he defended Michele Bachmann over Tina Brown's mean-spirited Newsweek cover; he's been pretty good on the financial crisis overall; and now he shows he's way ahead of the MSM on Ron Paul.

  13. I don't blame the media at all for the blackout of Ron Paul. The media are owned by people who feed off of us via the US Government.

    If you were in the position of these entities, why would you bother promoting the biggest threat to your free lunch? Be serious.

    I'll be happy if enough Americans see the light before hyperinflation. Videos like this certainly help.

  14. Am I the only one to see the irony in this?

    "The Brilliant Jon Stewart Calls Out Mainstream Media Over Their Lack of Coverage of Ron Paul"

    Mainstream media?

    That's Fox News! The very same people who made the term "Mainstream Media" sound like an insult. They are not Mainstream, they're a Murdoch Republican mouthpiece!

    You guys need to get your facts straight. You're self-imploding at your own contradictions.

  15. Jon Stewart: Trashing any Republican, all the time.
    Yea Jon, hope you're thrilled with your man Obama. Why don't you just announce you're gonna work on his re-election campaign for '12 ?
    Obama makes George Bush look like George Washington. Obama makes himself look like Montezuma -- now THERE was a leader ! (who took down a whole civilization)

  16. I guess you didn't actually watch the clip then. It wasn't just Foxnews, but literally every other tv network covering events -- and they all sounded the same.

    If you are implying a neo-con group like foxnews is somehow related to autrians, then you need to get your facts straight. They have pretty much always been hostile to austrian views, especially to ron paul. He was left out of the new hampshire debates in 08 after getting 10% of the iowa vote, for instance.

    We don't even have to also talk about all of the attacks by Cavuto, Ben Stein, Hannity, etc to Ron Paul and Peter Schiff for telling them what was about to happen.

  17. the media dissing of Ron Paul just makes me want to send him more money. Yes, I gave him cash, and I am not even a lib. or a repub. The guy is less insane than the rest of those preposterous candidates.

  18. Yea, great skit. John Stewart is a comedian, not a not bad one at that, and makes more sense than all of the news media. The complete lack of respect given to Ron Paul is atrocious. btw: hope Stewart keeps his biting satire going.

  19. The finite population who can appreciate Jon Stewart's integrity are the same who are able to see the validity and honour of Ron Paul. (like attracts like, and where does all this truth actually propel the USA?)

    After living away from the US and its maniacal media for 6 years, I am still appalled to see how the corrupted individuals who call themselves journalists or pundits or experts are continuing to hypnotise the American masses with silly repetitive sound-bytes (top tier! who writes this rubbish?) It's actually embarrassing and shameful that these robotic presenters are listened to by any person on this planet!

    Each day I hope the US wakes up, jars itself out of lazy complacency and finds the strength of a backbone to support a true statesman like Ron Paul. Another 14 months of pandering - may you all survive it!!
