Original headline: Raw footage shows Ron Paul DIDN'T storm out of CNN interview over racist newsletters... the interview was simply done
It seems I owe Candidate Paul an apology. I still don't like his friends, though.
Reports that Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul stormed out of a CNN interview earlier this week seem to be dramatically over-exaggerated.
Or, in fewer words, CNN lied.
Raw footage of the Thursday interview shows that it lasted nearly ten minutes, which is not unusually brief on the campaign trail. After discussing foreign policy, the payroll tax, negative advertisements, and super fund PACs, the interview concluded with three whole minutes of discussion on the issue of the incendiary racist and homophobic letters that were published in Mr Paul's name in the Eighties and Nineties.
The uncut video, all eight minutes and twenty-eight seconds of it, can be seen at the article link, along with one of the newsletters in question, so you can judge for yourself.
This latest round of politically motivated investigations comes on the heels of the Obama administration suing Arizona, Utah, Alabama and South Carolina over their tough new laws against illegal immigration.
Other police departments being attacked include: Seattle; Miami; East Haven, Connecticut; Rome, Wisconsin; Meridian, Mississippi; and Lauderdale County, Alabama.
The DOJ is considering launching a civil rights investigation into the Albuquerque Police Department in New Mexico. The ACLU and other activist (agitator)
groups are demanding a federal investigation of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, and at least two dozen members of Congress are demanding that the DOJ investigate the New York Police Department.
Meanwhile, 60 members of Congress are calling for Attorney General Eric Holders resignation over Fast and Furious, and 75 have signed onto a House resolution vote of no confidence. But by turning the focus towards alleged wrongdoing from large police agencies like the Seattle Police Department and popular Sheriff Joe Arpaio, there will be less media coverage and public scrutiny of Fast and Furious.

I don't think AG wants to tick off his best allies but then again this Department of Social Justice is the most politically motivated and ideologically driven in our history. His boss BHO and he are destroying the Department of Justice and all its credibility.

: ..or extradited to Mexico for arming the cartels and the deaths of its citizens.
Oh, I like that idea.

Holder needs to be dragged from Kansas City to Montrose on a 500-foot rope from a C-130 flying at 50 feet. There are a group of them flying from Peterson AFB that could accomplish the mission. That man is the Secretary of Injustice. It's either that or do it because he's the Attorney General Court Martial.

[An Nahar] Real estate mogul and reality TV personality Donald Trump has quit the Republican Party to register as an independent, opening the way for a potential outsider run at the White House, reports said Friday.
Trump made the switch on Thursday, his lawyer, Michael Cohen, told The Hill political news website.
Trump did this "in order to preserve his right to run as an independent... if he is not satisfied with whom the candidate is," Cohen told The Hill.
The make-over of Trump, who has persistently flirted with a presidential attempt, was also reported by Politico and other specialist sites.
Known for his blustery mane and defiantly garish tastes in real estate, Trump has huge name recognition and a large personal fortune. However he has little in the way of a campaign network, or a political following.
ABC News reported that he could run as a candidate with Americans Elect, an online convention to nominate an independent candidate. It is not a party, but an alternative vehicle for getting a non-Democrat or Republican presidential candidate on the ballot.
