Bloomberg Misquotes Ron Paul Seconds After He Speaks
- Text size
Congressman calls for less regulation, caption states he wants more!
Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Thursday, December 18, 2008
Another embarrassing corporate media faux pas was revealed when, during an interview with Congressman Ron Paul, Bloomberg put up a caption seconds after Paul called for less financial regulation, claiming that he had called for more.
During a conversation about the Madoff scandal, Paul was asked if the SEC should be shut down, to which he responded, “It’s proven it’s a total failure, it isn’t a lack of regulation, every time a problem comes along we put on more regulations.”
A few seconds later, a caption appeared on the screen which stated, “Breaking News: Paul Says We Need More Regulation, Calls SEC ‘Inept’”.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
This was a total misquotation and mischaracterization of what the Congressman said. He had stated a minute earlier that the only thing that required regulation was “the counterfeiting of money,” referring to the Federal Reserve’s relentless printing of dollars, but the caption implied that he had called for regulation of the SEC when he had in fact called for the opposite.
Paul later said that more SEC regulations would only “compound our recovery,” again expressing his opposition to regulations.
The air head host then engaged in double-think by claiming that regulation of the financial system was working but that it had not been enforced, begging the question, as one You Tube respondent commented, “How can someone claim regulation is working AND that it is not enforced? …The two are contradictory.”
To any rational thinking person this is a contradictory statement, but the corporate media is hell bent on regurgitating the talking point that the financial crisis, created and made worse by the elite, will only be solved by giving more power and control to that same elite.
The drumbeat for more “regulation” is so incessant that Bloomberg were apparently happy to take what Ron Paul said and turn it around 180 degrees in their favor by flashing up a ready made slogan, a completely dishonest maneuver but one performed out in the open without a care for accuracy or integrity.
Watch the clip below.

The MSM is known for distorting information to suite their propaganda.
December 19th, 2008 at 4:39 pm
Sense, you do not know what you are talking about. A good student of history knows that “natural law” does come from those basic tenants of Christianity, which is a law from deity that existed before the age of the New Testament. However, a good student also knows that the Old Testament, Christianity, and even some elements of Roman Government were incorporated into our Constitutional form of government, such as the Senate. The Roman Government gave complete religious freedom for a long time. It was only until they either demanded worship of the government/emperor that they became tyrannical or when they endorsed Christianity during the reign on Constantine.

Funny that it only took them a few seconds. Accidents happen but sometimes paranoia is too little too late. Who knows? I wish I felt better about the intentions of other people based on a long record of consistent moral behavior. All the arrows seem to point to tyranny from inside a toilet bowl. All that potential wasted by principles and ideas which nobody would advocate if they were spoken out loud. It’s nihilism and self loathing. I really think the amount of money that gets pumped into government breeds a group of people who view their power with scorn because it was too easily gotten. So they have to explore the boundries with cynical sadism to complete the system of value. I look around and I see such a waste of energy and talent. A bailout is a giant waste of everybody’s time because prolonging non-self justifying endeavors is pointless. It can only hurt.

No, Paul is not a mason. Just that his daughters are involved with the rainbow girls, a masonic organization and he throws around the devil horned salute and masonic hand shakes. No biggie.
That’s ok people, just be like your counterparts in the general public and tell yourself that it’s not true and everything is just great.
December 19th, 2008 at 8:20 pm
YES MR JONES……
Please take a minute to ask Ron Paul why he does “the handshake” and the sign of the devil.

December 20th, 2008 at 12:37 am
Have fun with the arthritis and other afflictions you Ron Paul haters have now assured yourselves to have.
Can’t wait to see how you shake hands in the near future.

Seriously #2
I didn’t start commenting until you posted the same thing on EVERY frickin post. Why don’t you make a comment relevant to the topic. Enough dude.
December 20th, 2008 at 5:22 am
I HATE THE MEDIA ..PLEASE MR PAUL ITS UP TO YOU! fight the SYSTEM! DONT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH THIS EVIL, DEVILISH, LUCIFER WORSHIPPING PSYCHOSIS!
December 20th, 2008 at 5:36 am
So sorry to see Mr.Jones did not participate in the youtube black out.
Your good enough to advertise it and complain yourself about google mr.Jones, but unfortunately
you have decided not to stand with the very same people who promote you.
Good day Mr.Jones…….Good day sir
December 20th, 2008 at 5:45 am
Also, as for the youtube blackout, i have to agree. I feel as though if you have someone on the show and promote the idea of a boycott so to speak, then you should at least participate. As I said, Alex is a good person, but he can be full of crap just like any of us.
December 20th, 2008 at 6:38 am
public enemy #1- the media, #2 the politicians.
December 20th, 2008 at 9:10 am
They lie like they breathe !!!
December 20th, 2008 at 9:11 am
I’m tired of trying to comment on this site and not having my comments ever appear. Fix this shit!
December 20th, 2008 at 9:46 am
I think that it is very funny to see how the visitors here argue in the comments. It seems like many people who come here like to attack those who do not share their beliefs about everything. That makes me smile.
December 20th, 2008 at 10:21 am
If I was Ron Paul, I would sue Bloomberg.
December 20th, 2008 at 12:02 pm
I think it’s just a dumb ass in the computer room. Bloomberg himself wants deregulation so i doubt that he has his guys coming behind Ron Paul and changing what he says to ’status quo.’
Who wouldn’t notice that; especially when we are talking about Ron Paul? Everyone watches that guy.
It just looks like a typo to me. http://mediacondom.com/?p=189

Ron Paul needs to answer some questions.
Why do you use a masonic handshake ?
Why do you make the sign of the devil ?
Which team are you really on Mr Paul ?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x6inINzThw
December 20th, 2008 at 4:00 pm
signs of the devil? hahaha that makes me laugh. What are these signs you speak of?
December 20th, 2008 at 6:22 pm
the “Devil” comes from the idea of a reptilian beast with horns on it’s head..that’s the Draconians controlling us like sheep daily!
December 20th, 2008 at 7:01 pm
Elvis…are you fucking kidding me. One guy who actually stands up for the people, and you have to go after him too. Fuck off you nazi. Who do you trust?

Elvis , if I were you, I would go wtach 9/11 videos , then say:
that’ll allow you to wake up and see how have you been mislead by Media and enemies of America and Yourself.
and fight for the truth.
Bush and Cheny need to answer some questions!
So dear if you are looking for evil , then let me tell you that you are at wrong door.! Another thing that I would like to say is eyes are not the only thing that you need to know the evil, don’t forget your EARS. There are thousand of video about Ron Paul on Utube. Go look and listen to what Mr. Ron Paul has to say
Take care
December 21st, 2008 at 11:13 am
Elvis-why don’t you research your own questions? His hand is like that for a reason. And it’s not what you think. But then, if you knew anything about thinking or research you wouldn’t be asking stupid questions….blind idiot.
December 21st, 2008 at 11:18 am
so, i just watched the video you linked. it looked like the hand sign for love to me….duh. when the thumb is out like that it means ” I love you”. moron
December 21st, 2008 at 11:51 am
Words of Truth which infowars / Alex Jones can not speak out:
1) Ron Paul voted with a yes for the war in iraq and afghanistan – it is documented on house.gov,
there he says it in a speach on september 2001 ( “I support President Bush …” ) short after 911
– you can also watch Ron Paul saying on youtube in a speech that he thinks the war in
afghanistan is right and he says also that he thinks the afghanistan Taliban is a threat to the USA.
2) Ron Paul said with his own words: “I dont think 911 was an inside job and it is not fair to say
the government did it” – you can watch it on youtube too.
—
Why is Alex Jones / infowars supporting Ron Paul when Ron Paul stands for the opposite ?
Why is Alex Jones / infowars whitewashing Ron Paul by saying he is for peace which is simply
not true, house.gov and youtube.com can prove this so easy from his own spoken words ?
Why is Alex Jones / infowars hiding thins from you people ? Why he lets you asleep ?
Why is Alex Jones / infowars sending you to a guy ( Ron Paul ) who is against your
movement ( again: you can watch it on youtube ) ?
Why is Alex Jones / infowars ( The Watson, K. Nimmo ) censoring this stuff ? They know it, i
send it to them more than 20 times.
The Infowars.com company lets you asleep in that case – they dont give you the full truth …
oh no … 2 towers came down 911 … infowars.com speaks about this … then 2 countries came
down ( afghanistan & iraq ) also because of the support of Ron Paul … but this case which is
even bigger than 911 .. infowars.com / Alex Jones is hiding from you .. to give you some of
their false “hope” .. fog for your brain ……………..
Alex Jones , in that case, keeps you hungry to feed you again and again … with some brain
crack .. infowars.com is SELFISH and so many begin to see this disinfo / halftruth crew …

ok, infowarfare- where are the direct links? If you really want to prove your point, backup your claims with links. although I do agree that the Alex Jones crew may have their own agenda, why is Ron Paul one of the only people to speak out against the Fed Reserve? The Fed is the main problem behind our current “financial crisis”. As far as the other issues you have accused Ron Paul of, why don’t you show your exact source/link? Just saying it is on youtube does not make it truth. And have you looked at his whole record of voting? Or are you just looking at things that support your opinion? My opinion is that Ron Paul is an honorable man, which is more than I can say about the majority of politicians. By the way, I remember when Ron Paul said that about 911. So, what does he think now? And what do you think? Who are the real criminals? Politicians who try to tell the truth as they believe it no matter what, or politicians who deliberately lie to hide the truth from the people? think about it….
December 21st, 2008 at 3:20 pm
infowarfare, you are not smart enough and you know that better than anyone else in this forum. Yes I have seen Mr. Ron Paul on Utune video saying that I don’t think so that 9/11 was inside job. Remeber something dear.. every day, every minute , every second with all this AMERICAN PATRIOTS and corageous truth seekers , we learn and wake up! If you had told me months ago, that 9/11 was inside job, I would have said the same thing as Dr. Ron Paul. If you had told me about NWO and their satanic aganda , I would have laughed at you and said you are nuts! But as I said, when you start to dig into things that you did’nt beleive, then you see the whole picture and the TRUTH.
The video where Dr. Ron Paul says I dont think 9/11 was inside job, is a last year video!
Wake up dear, since last year we have gone through so much, and look at things unfolding! Even the dumbest person will start ask question !!!
So if I were you , dont look backward!!LOOK FORWARD and check Dr. Ron Paul’s recent intreviews and videos! Ask yourself, WHO ELSE OUT THERE is couregously rejecting all these BAILSOUTS!?
Anyway if you want to trash talk Mr. Ron Paul or Alex Jones, it won’t work. Do you think we are blind! Do you think we don’t listen! Do you think people sit here and wait for you to come and tell them what to beleive or not! Oh come on, grow up, enough is enough…Don’t attack those who fight for your well being. Good luck to you.
December 21st, 2008 at 3:20 pm
RE: infowarfare- Go away GOV’T TROLL!
December 21st, 2008 at 3:32 pm
Me thinks some take reality out of contexted to fit their ideas of denial.
Lions & Tiger & Bears Oh MY!
You are an anti-semite for not supporting pro Israel Bush Kissinger,Cheney, et all Neo con Job.
But no Longer a anti-semite if you donot support the pro Israel Obama?
MSM/Gov’t says. “Only we get to flip the damn bloddy Pan a Cake.”
You gotta love their insistance that a stone is only a stone if they say it is.
But does that make it so?
Only if you are a pre-programmed Stupid ass.
December 21st, 2008 at 4:05 pm
Don’t feed the trolls. Seriously. You have an opportunity to engage intelligent critical thinking persons in discourse. Don’t play with the tar baby.
December 21st, 2008 at 4:45 pm
The end result of any appearances of Ron Paul on the zionist controlled media is always the same – to discredit him in some way or OUT RIGHT mischaracterzations like in this example.
But they are loosing credibility by the minute.
People are starting to wake up now in numbers and they know it.
December 21st, 2008 at 4:58 pm
i seen that 2 i wasnt suprised that they would pull a trick like that. And infoware your wrong ron paul was for afghanistan and against iraq. Look at his record again ur spreading misinformation man. Ron Paul is part of the truth movement he woke millions of people up, obviously he cant come out and support the 911 truth movement alot of conservatives wouldn’t support him. He is an honest man so stop trying to bring him down. Read his book the revolution it will open your eyes.
December 21st, 2008 at 5:01 pm
Actually #38 Ron Paul does a pretty good job of discrediting himself.
You people are so funny. Anyone who questions the Patriot “leaders” is a troll. anyone who does not believe whatever Alex or Paul says is “not awake” or one of “them” or whatever. Some of you are so narrow minded and childish just like the obama, mccain, bush supporters.
Like Ron Paul says, 9/11 was not an inside job. The fact based 9/11 commission report tells the truth of why we were attacked on 9/11 and Ron Paul explains those facts in this video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v.....s&NR=1
Dr. Paul also explains that Bin Laden and Al-queida are a real threat and that’s why he voted for the authority and money to get them.
Ron Paul, truth you can believe in.
I’m a real Patriot in the fight for freedom. I have turned many people over to Alex’s show and infowars. I’m just having a problem with some things that don’t add up. How dare I question Ron Paul. How dare I question Alex who I am a supporter of.
December 22nd, 2008 at 5:09 pm
Ron Paul needs to answer some questions.
Why do you use a masonic handshake ?
Why do you make the sign of the devil ?
Which team are you really on Mr Paul ?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x6inINzThw
As Judge Judy says….”If it doesnt make sense I dont believe it”.
Ron Paul aint gunna save you and thats the truth.
And if he aint gunna save you then he will be exposing you as antigovernment.
The sooner you wake up and start seeing the obvious, the sooner you will stop expecting others to make your lives easy.
Wake up amerKKKa……
December 23rd, 2008 at 12:23 pm
#39 there was ZERO (0) fact in the 9/11 Ommission report…get some f’in facts before u run ur piehole…
December 23rd, 2008 at 4:20 pm
Right on Elvis and Me,
R.P. is an evil Mason and AJ covers for him because he is more “truthful” than most pols. These half truths are actual disinformation from AJ even if unintended. R.P. doesn’t say who was behind 9/11 because he wants his job to live.
