Jon Stewart: Why Is the Media Ignoring Ron Paul?
They did the same thing in 2008. Out of all the candidates including Obama and Clinton, he was the only one telling the truth. Our own Samm Simpson was hammered for showing support. She was a candidate, i am only a blogger. Thanks Jon Stewart.

A Large Gathering Of Pig Ignorant Crackers
In a metropolitan area reeling from the triple-whammies of the Bush Recession, the BP oil spill and the implementation of Tea Party Governor Rick Scott’s reverse-Robin Hood strategy, laid-off dollar store stockers are eager for any crumbs of good news. They thought they’d heard some when it was announced the GOP would hold its 2012 convention in Tampa.
The RNC Chairman implied the influx of Republicans from around the country would fill up our strip clubs, max out room rentals in our seedy hotels and drive traffic to our numerous buffet style, all-you-can-eat restaurants. It would be like FOUR SUPER BOWLS, he said.
Not so much, says PolitiFact.
"First off, there are more black players on a single NFL team then there are black Republicans in the entire country. A large gathering of pig ignorant crackers doesn’t compare to a sporting event watched by a billion people. And lastly, people actually give a shit about the Super Bowl. Nobody outside of Rotary Club meetings and Klan gatherings gives two fucks about who the GOP is going to offer up to get slaughtered by Obama on Election Day next.".......Hunter Gathers

Godiva Chocolates, Nintendo GameBoys and Cashmere Sweaters
What Was Alan Gross Doing in Havana?
Since 1996, a small effort to stick our thumb in the island's eye developed with the formation of a "Cuba democracy program" within USAID to deliver "humanitarian aid" and "information" to "human rights and political activists" and families of dissidents. For years the democracy program's budget, about $2 million to start with, was funneled into grants to Cuban American groups in Miami that ostensibly used the money to somehow promote freedoms for Cubans still on the island.
Unfortunately, program funds were misused. A 2006 audit and investigation by the GAO highlighted taxpayer monies used to purchase Godiva chocolates, Nintendo GameBoys and cashmere sweaters. An alleged embezzlement scheme by another grantee was discovered in 2008, leading a member of the House to challenge USAID's annual program allocation, which had by then grown to $45 million per year. The agency agreed to more closely monitor its contractors, and soon after Alan Gross was hired via DAI to travel to Cuba.

Why I Like Dr. No, Sometimes.
Ron Paul......
*Has voted against constitutional bans on same-sex marriage and flag burning,
believing in individual expression.
*During a GOP debate in South Carolina in May, Paul said that if a person wants to shoot up with heroin, it's that person's choice, and the federal government should stay out of it.
*Paul was one of only six Republicans to vote against giving President George W. Bush the authority to wage war in Iraq and has long bemoaned U.S. intervention overseas.
*Talking about the Cuban embargo, Paul said the U.S. policy has failed.
"If we wouldn't have had this embargo for 40 years, Castro would have been gone a long time ago,"

I am not endorsing Mr. Paul and probably would never vote for him, but he is the only one that i see getting us out of the mess we are in. Ending the wars alone would help alot.
