Behind the scenes MEDIA CENSORING RON PAUL (FOX???)

Wonder what else they’re not showing us due to their ideological agendas... Successful charter schools? Wealthy SCHIP recipients? Smart home-schoolers?

More media bias.

Or they are unfit for television. Have you seen some of the supporters and the way they behave? It is like watching a CodePink rally.

I think it could be argued that not showing some of Ron Paul’s supporters actually helps him. Have you seen some of them at the ANSWER anti-war protests? Whoa.

Coupled with their bizarre conspiracy theories about manipulation of their own text message polls, I don’t think they’re working to lend Ron Paul a hand by not showing his supporters.

Fox is a bunch of sane, sensible, fair people! Hang em’!

Don't be fooled.. Paul is no Conservative. Votes speak louder than rhetoric.

Ron Paul's 2006 American Conservative Union rating: 76% Lifetime Rating: 82.3%

Ron Paul's Voting Record (ya, ya, I know, there is an excuse for all of these, state's rights are more important than stopping abortion and fixing the border, Ronnie is making a statement, or everyone else was voting against it and he was just playing the game, yadda, yadda, yadda)

Here are some more ‘Conservative(sic)’ votes by Paul:

Voted NO on federal crime to harm fetus while committing other crimes.

Voted NO on forbidding human cloning for reproduction & medical research.

Voted NO on barring transporting minors to get an abortion.

Voted YES on funding for alternative sentencing instead of more prisons.

Voted NO on more prosecution and sentencing for juvenile crime.

Voted NO on military border patrols to battle drugs & terrorism.

Voted NO on allowing school prayer during the War on Terror.

Voted NO on allowing vouchers in DC schools.

Voted NO on passage of the Bush Administration national energy policy.

Voted NO on implementing Bush-Cheney national energy policy.

Voted YES on barring website promoting Yucca Mountain nuclear waste dump.

Voted NO on speeding up approval of forest thinning projects.

Voted NO on reforming the UN by restricting US funding.

Voted NO on requiring lobbyist disclosure of bundled donations.

Voted NO on prohibiting lawsuits about obesity against food providers.

Voted NO on prohibiting product misuse lawsuits on gun manufacturers

Voted NO on prohibiting suing gunmakers & sellers for gun misuse.

Voted NO on decreasing gun waiting period from 3 days to 1.

Voted NO on emergency $78B for war in Iraq & Afghanistan.

Voted NO on $266 billion Defense Appropriations bill.

Voted YES on more immigrant visas for skilled workers.

Voted YES on providing $70 million for Section 8 Housing vouchers.

Voted NO on promoting work and marriage among TANF recipients.

Voted NO on treating religious organizations equally for tax breaks.

Let's also not forget Paul's Pork Projects (that he voted for before he voted against when he calls them unconstitutional but he is just playing the game when he submits them because everyone else does it.. yadda yadda yadda..)

Paul also supported the NAU superhighway by funding the TransTexas Corridor

Not just bias- it's a conspiracy.

The world hates you, and you haven't done anything!

As a courtesy to viewers. The bright glare comming off of their tinfoil hats is too harsh on the eyes.

I’d rather not watch that wacko or his supporters.

That's likely the reason. I've seen photos of some of those Paul-people participating in anti-war rallies and most of them appear to be firmly ensconced on the lunatic fringe.

They’re not censoring him enough...his nuttiness is still coming through.

Even though I find Ron Paul and his supporters to be mentally disturbed, I do not approve of media bias in any form.

Seems to me they’re doing him a favor by not showing them.

Oh for the love of...

Yes, the should be grateful. It did help Paul because his backers scare small animals, children and the faint of heart...
