UPDATE: Louisiana Republican Caucus Results: Our Media Is Screwed Up 
Thursday, January 24th, 2008

 

May I just say that the American media is entirely screwed up, and that we hope that's why you're here?  If THEY won't say it, WE will!

The Republican Party of Louisiana Chairman Roger F. Villere, Jr. announced the preliminary results of Republican delegate elections last night, of the Louisiana caucuses that will determine which presidential candidates will move on to the state convention for Louisiana.

Though the exact numbers have not yet been released, and the Louisiana Republican Party (LAGOP) is calling the results "unofficial," they have still officially announced that Senator John McCain came in first place, calling him "an American hero."

Congressman Ron Paul was in (what sources say was an extremely close race) second place to McCain, and Villere said, "I applaud the supporters of Congressman Paul for their enthusiasm...I left the caucus with a renewed commitment to promote...limited government and individual freedom, thanks to the zeal displayed by Congressman Paul's Louisiana supporters."

Mitt Romney came in third, and no mention was made of Huckabee in the LAGOP's press release.

Now, why do I say our media is screwed up?  Everywhere you turn, if Ron Paul's name must be mentioned in the media - regardless of the fact that he has generated the most internet searches, and the greatest amount of campaign donaters - his name is always paired with a word like longshot.

CNN themselves admit Paul is "one of the candidates with the least face time in mainstream media."

And, of course, who could forget one of our top stories, about how FOX News cut Paul out of the Republican debate.

That being said:  aren't you glad you're here to find out what's really going on?
