Don't embolden the enemy with your hate speech. Fred Thompson is the only way to a more safe and secure North American Union.

LOL what do you think we are? Non-interventionists?

We attack BEFORE there is a threat otherwise they'll attack us HERE!!

It doesn't matter if there really is a threat (or WMDs) from Dr. P or Saddam, we'll make it up if we have to!!!!!

WISE UP: read up on how we work as neocons, or GET OUT!

Nothing to worry about. Australians don't even know what freedom means. They can't even comprehend such a concept.

[Bill O'Reilly]

Imagine, him trying to give ME a history lesson!!??

It's a good thing our Australian allies know about Ron Paul.

Just like they stood by our brave American soldiers at Malmedy as they were gunned down by those renegade Turkish soldiers.

Yes, news outlets round the U.S. will be delighted to get their hands on a story that doesn't even get CONGRESSMAN Ron Paul's title correct.

What a dumb idea.

I'm Professor De Bots. Get it .. de bots.. Here's the paper it was published in: http://www.news.com.au/mercury/story...005940,00.html Here's the fake Ron Paul news story I did. I can't believe an editor was stupid enough to publish it. I'm very proud of myself. Senator in 'fake online campaign' Ron Paul's online campaign may be fake Receiving thousands of hits Suspected of being an astroturfing campaign A CANDIDATE for the US presidency is being buoyed by a huge online campaign that may be a fake a grassroots movement organised by party staff. YouTube footage of Texan Republican Senator Ron Paul, whose candidacy has been overshadowed in the media by competitors Rudi Giuliani, Fred Thompson and John McCain, has been viewed by tens of thousands of people in the last week. As of 11am AEST today, a compilation of different clips of Senator Paul was the top rated video of the past 24 hours. The clip had been viewed nearly 60,000 times since it was uploaded yesterday But it was not the only clip of the senator receiving kudos from YouTube users, with another 10 videos appearing in today’s list of the site’s 100 top rated recordings. Of the 11 featured clips of Senator Paul, only one user uploaded more than one of them in the last 24 hours. Head of Flinders University’s Department of American Studies Don De Bots told NEWS.com.au that it “sounded like” an astroturfing campaign. Astroturfing is the term used to describe a fake grassroots campaign, in which members of an organisation create the illusion that “ordinary people” are behind the movement. Professor De Bots said that for a relatively unknown candidate like Senator Paul to have so much prominence online was suspicious. “I would not put any credibility on those results,” Prof De Bots said. “I find it terrifically surprising and unlikely (that Senator Paul would attract that level of response).” Earlier this week, the senator’s campaign team issued a press release that said: “Dr Paul's video channel has been viewed 4.5 million times by supporters who embrace his message of freedom and limited government, making him one of the most-watched presidential candidates in internet history.” Click here to visit Senator Paul's official YouTube channel. Those figures were based only on clips uploaded by one user, RonPaul2008dotcom, who didn’t have any clips in today’s 100 top rated list.

Why are you proud of this chicanery? Ron Paul is an honest person trying to help America. Our economy is screwed up and our foreign policy is screwed up and he wants to show the people what is wrong and how to fix it.

All you are doing is trying to slander his good name. When Ron Paul delivered babies for a living, if people didnt have the money to pay him, he would deliver their baby for free. Tell me FRED THOMPSON would be as selfless as that??

I Dont have any problem with you liking and supporting Fred.. BUT IF HE IS GOOD ENOUGH TO WIN ON HIS OWN MERIT THEN FINE. BUT LIKE THIS, YOU ARE BEING DECEITFUL AND MISLEADING. YOU ARE NOT SO MUCH SUPPORTING FRED AS MUCH AS YOU ARE LIBELING RON PAUL.

YOU ARE PATHETIC.

[Shame]

Lucky noone pays attention to Tommy!
