Ron Paul fundraising shocks the media: 5 million! (MSNBC)

Yeah, they were talking about it on CNN too! Finally some good publicity for him.

What a waste of money.

Wow!! I hope Guliani has stopped smirking.

It's shocker! ouch stop tasing me bro

That dimwit anchorwoman called him an 'isolationist' and someone who wants to abolish taxes.

I feel sorry for these dumbf#@%s. They just don't get it.

The power of positive thinking. Things are hidden are coming to light and as long as you stop the divide and conquer, WE WILL CONQUER

Don't think for a second she called him an "isolationist" out of ignorance.
I always used to dismiss the claims that our media was bought and paid for by the ones in power, until ron paul.
That word was used for a very specific reason, They want to discredit him, and so far that is all they have been doing.
Win or lose i thank ron paul for waking me up to the sad fact that our media is little more than propaganda now a days .

Voter bump

An "isolationist"?? He's the WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

Oh if they don't like you. Or want to smear you. You get called an isolationist. Xenophobe. Left-winger. Right-winger.

Wow Damn man ronpaul2008 look at what he has to say on various issues am I dreaming.

I will definitely donate and we will all show America that the internet is the new political fund raising medium.



Few Americans understand that all government action is inherently coercive. If nothing else, government action requires taxes. If taxes were freely paid, they wouldn’t be called taxes, they’d be called donations. If we intend to use the word freedom in an honest way, we should have the simple integrity to give it real meaning: Freedom is living without government coercion. So when a politician talks about freedom for this group or that, ask yourself whether he is advocating more government action or less.

Political Power and the Rule of Law
by Ron Paul, Dr.

The problem is that politicians are not supposed to have power over us– we’re supposed to be free. We seem to have forgotten that freedom means the absence of government coercion. So when politicians and the media celebrate political power, they really are celebrating the power of certain individuals to use coercive state force.

Rush Limbaugh and the Sick Federal War on Pain Relief
by Ron Paul, Dr.

In cases where patients are not high profile celebrities like Mr. Limbaugh, it is pain management physicians who bear the brunt of overzealous prosecutors. Faced with the failure of the war on drugs to eliminate drug cartels and kingpins, prosecutors and police have turned their attention to pain management doctors, using federal statutes designed for the prosecution of drug dealers to prosecute physicians for prescribing pain medicine.

UN Plans for Global Gun Control
by Ron Paul, Dr.

Gun control proponents like to characterize light weapons as ineffective in wartime, but history proves they are critical to the self-defense of nations … UN gun control advocates ignore history when they attempt to link guns only with crime, and never with heroic resistance to tyranny.

Tragedy begets tragedy. Violence in schools doesn’t justify violence against liberty.
by Ron Paul, Dr.

In rushing to “do something,” even good people are tempted to promote a very bad idea, presenting Americans with a false choice: give up the precious liberties of Bill of Rights and cede greater power to the federal government, or face more youth violence. Reality, of course, demonstrates something very different.

Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2000
by Ron Paul, Dr.

The abuse of the general welfare clause and the interstate commerce laws clause is precisely the reason our Federal Government no longer conforms to the constitutional dictates but, instead, is out of control in its growth and scope. H.R. 3660 thus endorses the entire process which has so often been condemned by limited government advocates when used by the authoritarians as they constructed the welfare State.

Surrender Should Not Be an Option
by Ron Paul, Dr.

The American people have NOT gotten the government they deserve. They asked for a stronger America and peace through nonintervention, yet we have a government of deceit, inaction and one that puts us in grave danger on the international front. The American People deserve much better than this. They deserve foreign and domestic policy that doesn’t require they surrender their liberties.

National ID Cards Won’t Stop Terrorism or Illegal Immigration
by Ron Paul, Dr.

One overriding point has been forgotten: Criminals don’t obey laws! As with gun control, national ID cards will only affect law-abiding citizens. Do we really believe a terrorist bent on murder is going to dutifully obtain a federal ID card? Do we believe that people who openly flout our immigration laws will nonetheless respect our ID requirements? Any ID card can be forged; any federal agency or state DMV is susceptible to corruption. Criminals can and will obtain national ID cards, or operate without them. National ID cards will be used to track the law-abiding masses, not criminals.

The Immigration Question
by Ron Paul, Dr.

We’re often reminded that America is a nation of immigrants, implying that we’re coldhearted to restrict immigration in any way. But the new Americans reaching our shores in the late 1800s and early 1900s were legal immigrants. In many cases they had no chance of returning home again. They maintained their various ethnic and cultural identities, but they also learned English and embraced their new nationality.

If we reward millions who came here illegally, surely millions more will follow suit. Ten years from now we will be in the same position, with a whole new generation of lawbreakers seeking amnesty.

Immigration ‘Compromise’ Sells Out Our Sovereignty
by Ron Paul, Dr.

The much-vaunted Senate “compromise” on immigration is a compromise alright: a compromise of our laws, a compromise of our sovereignty, and a compromise of the Second Amendment. That anyone in Washington believes this is a credible approach to solving our immigration crisis suggests just how out of touch our political elites really are.

Amnesty Opponents Are Not Un-American
by Ron Paul, Dr.

I strongly disagree with the president that opposing this legislation is unpatriotic. I believe we have an obligation to reject any legislation that promises amnesty to those here illegally, and that undermines the sovereignty and privacy of American citizens.

Sane and Sensible Immigration Policies After September 11
by Ron Paul, Dr.

We must do a better job keeping track of the non-citizens who already have been admitted to America. Individuals who remain in the country after their visas have expired must be treated as lawbreakers. Remember, only U.S. citizens have the constitutional right to be on American soil; non-citizens are in the country at the discretion of the State department. We should not tolerate lawless behavior or anti-American activities from guests in our country.

Amnesty and the Welfare State
by Ron Paul, Dr.

The problems associated with illegal immigration will not be solved overnight, but we cannot begin to address them until we take the hard steps of securing the borders, rejecting amnesty, and reclaiming our right as a sovereign nation to control immigration without apology.

Rethinking Birthright Citizenship
by Ron Paul, Dr.

Make no mistake, Americans are happy to welcome immigrants who follow our immigration laws and seek a better life here. America is far more welcoming and tolerant of newcomers than virtually any nation on earth. But our modern welfare state creates perverse incentives for immigrants, incentives that cloud the issue of why people choose to come here. The real problem is not immigration, but rather the welfare state magnet.

Immigration Reform in 2006?
by Ron Paul, Dr.

Both the Bush administration and congressional leadership have promised to spend the next two months addressing national security issues. But real national security cannot be achieved unless and until our borders are physically secured. It’s as simple as that. All the talk about fighting terror and making America safer is meaningless without border security. It makes no sense to seek terrorists abroad if our own front door is left unlocked.

Paul Votes for Stronger Border Security
by Ron Paul, Dr.

“The problems associated with illegal immigration cannot be addresses unless and until we gain physical control of our borders and coastlines,” Paul stated. The number one priority for Congress should be securing our borders—no immigration reform is possible until then. Once we have control over who is entering the country, we can begin to reform the legal immigration process.”

The Federal War on Pain Relief
by Ron Paul, Dr.

Do we really want the Drug Enforcement Administration jailing doctors for the alleged misdeeds of patients? Certainly some individuals abuse prescription pain killers, but federal agents are hardly qualified to decide what kind of drugs are appropriate for pain patients. Zealous prosecutors certainly show no interest in learning the basic facts of pain management.

The War on Drugs is a War on Doctors
by Ron Paul, Dr.

When we talk about the federal war on drugs, most people conjure up visions of sinister South American drug cartels or violent urban street gangs. The emerging face of the drug war, however, is not a gangster or a junkie: It’s your friendly personal physician in a white coat. Faced with their ongoing failure to curtail the illegal drug trade, federal drug agencies have found an easier target in ordinary doctors whose only crime is prescribing perfectly legal pain medication. By applying federal statutes intended for drug dealers, federal prosecutors are waging a senseless and destructive war on doctors.

War on Terror? It’s as Bad as War on Drugs
by Ron Paul, Dr.

For the first 140 years of our history, we had essentially no Federal war on drugs, and far fewer problems with drug addiction and related crimes was a consequence. In the past 30 years, even with the hundreds of millions of dollars spent on the drug war, little good has come of it. We have vacillated from efforts to stop the drugs at the source to severely punishing the users, yet nothing has improved. This war has been behind most big government policy powers of the last 30 years, with continual undermining of our civil liberties and personal privacy.

Gun Control? Disarm The Bureaucrats!
by Ron Paul, Dr.

The Constitution, the highest law of the land, explicitly defines the role of federal government and correctly reserves the authority, power and responsibility for police activities to local government. Why? Because it is at that level where potential abuses can be minimized by a watchful citizenry.

Tune in to www.ronpaulradio.com to hear some of the great news from today.

that condescending bitch!! fucking media..

Anyone have an email address for "Nora" at MSNBC. I'd like to send her a nice note asking her opinion about the merits of a free press.

What I want to know is how Fox's little turd Mr. H. is going to handle this. It sure looks like there are a lot more than a dozen or so Paulites that you claim spammed your debate poll. IN YOUR FACE SEAN!

To think that I used to listen to him on the radio....I am so embarrassed.

Nora Odonnell... come on people. Someones gotta have it?

Look at Jonathon Alter's face as he reports this news. It looks like he's ready to cry, or like his mother just died. They are bought, sold, and paid for, body, mind and soul!!! Another sad reminder of the depths to which the MSM have sunk. Betrayers of their rightful mission as objective investigators and reporters of the truth.

And what's wrong with that?

Sounds like a plan to me.

Go Ron Go!

The PTB and the MSM can't stand it.

YOU MUST REGISTER AS A REPUBLICAN, ASAP! MANY STATES ARE CHANGING THEIR LAWS TO LOCK OUT RP VOTERS. SOME HAVE SET THE DEADLINE BY OCTOBER 12. DO NOT RISK YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE! REGISTER REPUBLICAN IMMEDIATELY

Hitler was not an isolationist.

The excessive and obscene waste of money that is currently occurring... and will continue to occur, is brought to you courtesy of "Giuiliani Time" and "Hillary".

I already am.... they can't lock me out.

Once again, IN YOUR FACE SEAN!

I saw that live today and I was appalled. Who the hell is Jonathan Alter???? That guy was an ASS. Later in the day the two of them did anther quick quirk and it was worse. He basically called Ron Paul a joke and the people who donated to him even bigger jokes. I will have to see if it is posted on youtube.

That isn't much compared to the zionists lobbying for Hitlery.

At the same time, we must not isolate ourselves. The generosity of the American people has been felt around the globe. Many have thanked God for it, in many languages. Let us have a strong America, conducting open trade, travel, communication, and diplomacy with other nations.

Bitch don't now what she's talking about.
