Ron Paul on "Morton Downey Jr." -1988, so fucking cringe worthy - General

Holy shit[I] everyone[/I] in this video makes my blood boil other than Paul. I'd never even heard of or seen the host before watching this video and after 15 minutes I'm glad he went bankrupt and died of lung cancer. He's just so detestable. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCxDrfs4GtM[/media]

he looks so much younger.. Man, hes been pursuing his dreams for the longest time now, and yet the media STILL give him shit. Poor man.. I bet hes gone through so much.. I mean hes stood his ground for years, upon YEARS.

It's a weird world where Ron Paul is the sane guy in the room.

A youtube comment "look at the fuckin dike trying to talk shit to ron paul. I hope she* got raped in a back alley by a black for defending her war on drugs." I don't even...

"I can't take this guy seriously! I mean, LOOK at him!" While hes standing next to a Patty Hearst groupie

Wow, fuck them. Using really low insults too.

Those people are disgusting. They're like a pack of mange infested dogs ganging up on a little bird simply because he wants the freedom to fly.

well this looks like a reasonable debate show.

I wish I could see their faces when Paul got second place in New Hampshire

It's so 80's it burns.

Couldn't watch it past 5 minutes. Too rageworthy.

No drugs before the 1900s? Look to the Asian immigrant Opium dens or the over the counter bottles of Laudanum and Ethel or the civil war vets who became addicted to morphine.

funny how they say it won't work and how hes wrong and such look at it after 25 years. the prisons are packed, so much money is being put into the drugwar, people are dieing, etc.

This is one of the least civilized debates I have ever seen.

I don't like Ron's lowblow to the overweight fellow at the end. I [i]loved[/i] it.

funny how their counter arguments are nonexistant

Dat VHS static sound

oh god his look at 09:06. poor guy, gotta hear at that bullshit >_<

Also I love how he has stayed true to his own beliefs even after so long

Is it just me, or did Ron look extremely friendly back in the day? [editline]13th January 2012[/editline] Jesus fuck this must be the worst debate show ever. Not even sure if I'd even call that a debate, just a clusterfuck of shouting and interrupting.

WOW. [I]There's[/I] something that dates it. He was smoking on TV.

I love it when he calls the guy out about his smoking and the host just shrugs it off. Then dies of lung cancer.

I wish everyone in that video would march out into the sea. With the exception of Ron Paul, maybe.

Can this even be called a debate? When Ron was making a point the host just did some disrespectful gesture.

Its not, he called him there to humiliate him. Worked so well, don't you think?

Show hosts like this are a fucking disgrace to humanity. [editline]13th January 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=nox;34191767]I love it when he calls the guy out about his smoking and the host just shrugs it off. Then dies of lung cancer.[/QUOTE] What goes around, comes around. :v:

[quote]After being diagnosed with lung cancer, he commented, "I had spawned a generation of kids to think it was cool to smoke a cigarette. Kids walked up to me until a matter of weeks ago, they'd have a cigarette in their hand and they'd say, 'Hey, Mort,' or, 'Hey, Mouth, autograph my cigarette.' And I'd do it."[1] He also blamed tobacco companies for lying to consumers about cigarettes, although congressman Ron Paul (also a physician) had advised him, in 1988, while on his show, that smoking was highly unhealthy and responsible for a huge number of deaths every year.[1][/quote] Quote from the shows host, at least he wised up.

Wow, at the beginning he says "I'm not going to step over anyone's lines." Then he goes on to say how Ron Paul's cojones are getting smaller.
