Wrong Paul

Last time I checked, the congressman you just bashed in your alliteration-vendetta piece has fought harder for personal liberties than most politicians will ever dream of. Personal liberties, you know, like the 1st amendment right that allows people like yourself to disrespect others in public. I doubt you are reading this, Joe Miller, but after you settle down from your little rant, remind yourself that morals, values and the law are actually important many people in this country. Consistent voting records and looking out for the good of your people is an attribute. Ron Paul has opened my eyes to a new world of political awareness. Save this article, I'm sure you will as this is probably your proudest, most arduous piece, and look back on it down the road to see if you still agree with your motives in writing this. I have a hunch you will have become more aware of your surroundings as well. By the way, I have a good friend who writes for Newsweek-I'll be sure to look into some of your other writings to see if they are filled with such animosity and hostility. Take care.

It would be a fair comment to say that Ron Paul has uniquely characterized the expansion of I-35 or Trans-texas Corridor as a NAFTA Superhighway. It is not correct to characterize the highway as a "myth". This has been publicly debated for years, and caused some heated exchanges in the Texas legislature. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=17892 Google gives 752,000 links for the query TTC 35.

Kansas City's Smartport may be mythical, but it has a lot of world's biggest features: http://www.kcsmartport.com/

It is inexcusable for a well-regard institution like Newsweek not to have discovered a few relevant facts before branding Ron Paul a nutcase. And to call your lame attempt "fact-check" is intolerable. Roll some heads! I want to see them on a pike, (pictures will do)

Newsweek, a mouthpiece for the Council on Foreign Relations, continues to lie about the North American Union. The editors at Newsweek demonstrate their contempt for the Constitution, as well as for the American people by their attack on the one presidential candidate with integrity.

Ron Paul is correct when he speaks of an ongoing revolution. There are Americans who are dedicated to taking our country back for the globalist elite who would like to rule the world (and maked billions of dollars while they work to achieve that end).

The liberal elite are afraid of Ron Paul. This has become obvious in the past several months. Newsweek being just one in the herd of publications hell-bent on shutting out the little guy in order to keep the power brokers of the media to continue to tell the people on a daily basis who you, or i should vote for. It's purely psychological, and it works. Unfortunately. The other fact based around this theory is that most common people are simply to stupid to understand the whole process in general., as to who is really in control of the elite media,,need i say more? No thanks, i'll let the people decide. Unlike the media, who will tell them what to think. Go Ron Paul

Newsweek and/ or the author are either part of the conspiracy that Ron Paul hopes to expose and eliminate or they are so brainwashed by the rest of the media that they forget what this country was supposed to be about. The only thing that people need to really understand about Ron Paul is that his politics are as close to the founding fathers vision as we have seen in decades if not more than a century. With the kind of mindset that this article shows it will clearly take a new revolution to wake this country up and become human again.

$50.0 billion - additional "allowance" to be charged to fiscal year 2009

Subtotal: $766.5 billion.

$23.4 billion - DOE developing and maintaining nuclear warheads
$25.3 billion - State Dept foreign military assistance
$1.0 billion - recruitment and reenlistment incentives for U.S. military
$1.9 billion - Department of Justice for the paramilitary activities of the FBI
$38.5 billion - Department of the Treasury for the Military Retirement Fund
$7.6 billion - for the military-related activities of NASA
$200.0 billion - interest for past debt-financed defense outlays

Grand Total: $1.064 trillion

never mind, that number is incorrect

Every comment we leave lets accompany it with a donation to Ron Paul's campaign!! We will take back our country with every ounce of our ability!

Newsweek cannot survive long with such fowl libel.

So you only report on those you feel can win? Your reporting is not fair and balanced, but instead biased? It's too bad that you make the decision for your audience.

I am so disgusted with your article. I have to leave. Good night to all the Americans who stands for truth.

I thought highly of Newsweek. Now after reading this you can keep your article and this magazine and I don't intend to buy you in the future. Tell the truth! Not lies to the American people. People are not that stupid.

After reading this I became more interested in Ron Paul and after doing my own research I completely agree with Moia's post. This article is a disgrace.

Where to begin...So much info...So much spin...can't focus....OK. 1st no one is perfect. 2nd the best bad news you can drag up on Dr Paul is variations on spending, the disagreement on a North American Union, and that factcheck doesn't have much info on him. The fact is that a great number of people have woken up, and realize that the people in Washington DC work for US. We pay their salaries, we elect them, and they are ignoring us completely, Dr, Paul doesn't have to win anything to help us reclaim control of our country, the movement will continue to grow with or with out him. This is not about Ron Paul. This is about our Freedom, Our sovereignty, and Our economy. One person cannot change Washington, However, a large group of people who still believe in the documents that are guarded in our Capital building, can. We rally around Dr Paul because he has carried the Freedom message loud and clear.

Newsweek, I am not even a Ron Paul supporter, but after reading this article, I am absolutely not a newsweek supporter. What a travesty of journalism. I perosnally searched out Ron Pauls voting record, because the way a politician votes (meaning consistent with an ideaology) is the way integrity is measured. I have never seen a consistant voting record as I have with Ron Paul. Why don't you mention his voting record? I have also never seen butchered bias jourmnalism as I have seen with this article...its amazing, you don't even try to hide your bias toward Ron Paul. Through this article and its obvious bias, you have been instrumental in getting me and my family interested in Ron Paul and peaking our curiousity to dive deeper into his ideology and how he stands on the issues. At the same time you have been instrumental in showing us your lack of reverence for good, unbiased journalism and as a result you have alltogether dismantled our reverence and trust for your magazine. Your own lack of integrity is the reason for this. Why not do a comparative analysis of each candidates voting records?
