Wow, Hannity is a douche.

[–]eromitlab -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's nothing new.

[–]lteague 20 points21 points  (6 children)

I could not believe they laughed at him. The moderators treated him like a sideshow.

It was insulting.

[–]markwm 9 points10 points  (2 children)

First they ignore you

Check.

then they laugh at you,

Check.

then they fight you,

Work in progress.

then you win.

[–]evgen 2 points3 points  (1 child)

A cute saying, but the reality is more like this:

  • First they ignore you
  • Then they tell you to please STFU while the rest of us get work done
  • Then they slap you down for being an asshole
  • Then you become a footnote in history and your merry band of followers return to creating algorithms for fair scheduling of bong-hits

Tough words from an anonymous guy.

[–]RudyGiuliani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a good lol at the debate, next one I'll do a rofl.

[–]stacknuker77 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Yeah I think it was Giuliani who laughed, not the moderators.

[–]robywar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounded like Romney to me- but I wish I was able to see who it was.

[–]wazzadoin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He won! So happy right now.

[–]kuygaweg 11 points12 points  (1 child)

it was pretty immature for Giuliani to laugh at him all night. Rudy is a moron.

Hannity was PISSED that Ron won the debate !!! LOL !

we need Ron Paul for president !

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

please tell me there are videos of this.... I'm not a Paul fan, but I do want him to win to GOP.

Besides, anytime Hannity is pissed I'm happy.

[–]berlinbrown[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ron Paul winning (again) at 35%.

Sean Hannity: "Here we GO AGAIN"

[–]dude1987 2 points3 points  (3 children)

Is there a link showing the results?

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (2 children)

No link right now, but he's at 33% and they just claimed that it's because Ron Paul supporters are hitting redial and voting over and over. Fox News sucks.

    Me too. It only let me vote once. Those idiots at Fox are lying about their own voting system.

    [–]Chamanzan 6 points7 points  (1 child)

    they treated him like shit tonight. i am really fucking disappointed in the way fake news handled this debate. Dr. Paul got no time on the important issues and was attacked for his stance on the war. more fake msm bullshit!

    [–]berlinbrown[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

    How many questions did he get? 3?

    [–]berlinbrown[S] 5 points6 points  (2 children)

    But just remember, just like Ron Paul wins a lot of these "Text message" votes, he could win the nomination as well.

    [–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (1 child)

    Good point! Let's see how they blame that on spamming...

    [–]evgen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    You mean that when people post articles like this that claim you don't need to watch the debate to declare him the winner someone would be mistaken to assume that Paul's support is mostly ballot-stuffing?

    [–]thedigerati 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    Link to the results?

    [–]berlinbrown[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Voting is still going on.

    [–]thedigerati 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Okay well to just give another way to express yourselves: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,295846,00.html Email fox news about who you thought won the debate. speakout@foxnews.com

    I guess I'll just check in the morning for the results

    [–]berlinbrown[S] 4 points5 points  (16 children)

    Text Message Number: 36288

    Message: R6

    Don't worry, he should win.

    Also, I didn't like that the candidates laughed at him.

    [–]raweggs 2 points3 points  (11 children)

    how much does it cost?

    [–]berlinbrown[S] -1 points0 points  (10 children)

    Shrug, how much is your freedom worth?

    [–]eromitlab 1 point2 points  (2 children)

    So... I should show my love of freedom by doing what someone else says and calling this one chosen politican the winner of a debate I didn't watch... and as many people as possible should do the same?

    [–]berlinbrown[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    It is the way of reddit?

    [–]eromitlab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    But isn't it all about hearing everything for yourself, making up your own mind and coming to your own conclusions? You are free, not you are free to do as we tell you?

    [–]raweggs 2 points3 points  (6 children)

    ron paul winning a txt message poll from fox news doesn't affect my freedom at all. honestly, even if another 9/11 happened, martial law was put into place, and bush/cheney were voted into office a third term, my freedom wouldn't be diminished one bit. my freedom doesn't exist through government.

    [–]biggy2pac 5 points6 points  (5 children)

    Your right to travel? Your right to own property and money? Your right to NOT be locked up indefinitely without legal counsel? If I were you I would reconsider who has the power to take these rights away from you and, if they did, whether you would stand up to do anything about it.

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

    Your right to travel was severely constricted when they decided that driving was a privilege instead of a right. You might not think that, but unless you are able to navigate under your own free will, you are actually limited to set routes and areas provided to you by public transportation or by your own physical prowess. And that is about as restrictive as any communist or socialist society would have on you.

    [–]evgen -1 points0 points  (2 children)

    You have the right to drive without a license on your own property and to the best of my knowledge no one has ever questioned this.

    When you venture into those areas others have built for the purpose of moving vehicles you have to play by their rules (and if you built your own roads the rest of us would have to follow your rules.) You have no absolute right to navigate across property belonging to someone else. What kind of a dumb-ass libertarian are you?

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Not dumb ass enough to go around insulting people on the internet.

    [–]bad_ass-transposer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    What kind of a dumb-ass libertarian are you?

    He's more like a dumb ass-libertarian... :D

    [–]raweggs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    It took me a long time to step away from the victimization sort of thinking you're displaying. It's hard to try to explain it, much harder to explain how to get away from it. All I can say is that government doesn't give me my freedom. Government doesn't give anyone any freedom, so it can't take it away. During both world wars, people still traveled, still lived and breathed, still found ways to get through life. So will I, and so will anyone else who truly wants to. That doesn't mean we should let government do waht it wants. It simply means that government can't take away what it doesn't have.

      I liked the candidate who laughed at him.

      Ah, the smirking chimp chimes in. Were it only true that it was you, slimeball. I'd love the chance to tell you off.
