The Old Media strikes to destroy a conservative once again.

Is he a conservative...or a libertarian?

That is how the media operates.

That is what we face. The media sets the agenda in this country and we have to change the media. Somehow.

Defund the Left. This is taxpayer funded radio. State Run Media.

Screw these socialists who are sh** scared that their plans may be put to a halt once again.

Paul should have been ready to throw it right back in their face, referring to NPR as a “left-wing organ of the Democrat party”, more than willing to use religious and racial hatred to advance their cause, projecting their prejudices on others.

And, he should have continued, “Congress should examine revoking the NPR charter, and selling off its assets, for using public monies to support an openly partisan agenda.”

Oh when TSHTF or a civil war erupts, I just hope the people on our side remember that the media is the enemy too.

Everybody knows the KKK was a bunch of Democrats. Does NPR think Abe Lincoln formed the Klan? They should talk to Sen Byrd while they still have time.

The left is throwing a hissy fit over talk about doing away with the Sec. of Education and the unelected, unaccountable EPA.

Hey, the KKK were just southern insurgents who dragged the Civil War out 100 years.

Defund Pacifica Radio too (we fund it in portion). It makes NPR look like Fox News.

So why did he go on Maddow’s show? And NPR?

Why give State TV credibility?

This morning he admits it was a mistake.

Good grief, here we go again.

The only KKK member I know of Congress is Senator Byrd (D).

He is a conservative in the libertarian way, kinda like me. :)

I was discussing with a couple of friends the difference between the labels “conservative” and “libertarian”. I think the former is just a label that depends on context while the latter much more stands on its own.

Libertarian has a fairly narrow meaning, while words like “liberal” and “conservative” depend on the environment in which they are being used.

A conservative in Kentucky, USA has quite a bit different political viewpoints than a conservative in Moscow, Russia. Libertarians from either place would probably hold pretty similar viewpoints.

I’m not sure why he would give an interview to NPR anyway.

Some supposedly on the right are trying to destroy him too, seems he is on to something. The GOP establishment and the lefty establishment don’t want their piggy bank taken away.

Reigning in the Federal Govt is the issue of our time, and yes it trumps terrorism. There won’t be anything left for anyone to attack.

He is not showing good judgement, lets hope he learns quickly.

Does NPR mean the KKK which was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party?
