FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda

Politico’s chief columnist, Roger Simon, on Monday accused the media of under-reporting Congressman Ron Paul’s significant achievement in the Ames Straw Poll.
Paul came in second place in the Ames Straw Poll, with 4,671 votes, barely falling below Congresswoman Michele Bachmann’s 4,823 votes. But the media has almost exclusively focused on Bachmann and other Republican presidential candidates, despite Paul having only 152 less votes than the congresswoman.
“I admit I do not fully understand Ron Paul and his beliefs,” Simon said. “But I do understand when a guy gets shafted, and Ron Paul just got shafted.”
“If Bachmann’s victory at Ames was good enough to gain her enormous publicity and top-tier status, why was Paul’s virtual tie good enough only to relegate him to being ignored?” he asked.

no mention of Dr. Paul during the national or local news.
If I didn’t have internet I wouldn’t even know that he was a candidate.
Absolutely pathetic.
Ron Paul 2012.
I’ll have yard signs on the corner of my garage(under the surveillance cameras).
“But the media has almost exclusively focused on Bachmann”
Their focusing on Bachmann because they know she can’t win and it draws attention away from Paul. Mean while the Perry corporate machine gets underway.
