Faux News busted on Ron Paul CPAC deception

Faux News up to it's dirty little tricks, as usual.

Here they have replaced the CPAC 2011 results with a clip from 2010... watch to see why that makes such a huge difference.

(Ron Paul gets his due at 4:10 or so.)

Why is the left "worried" that Ron Paul is somehow being misrepresented?

You lefties would poop your pantaloons if he was elected Prez. He opposes everything you stand for minus anti-war naiveté and legalizing drugs.

Because Ron Paul is worth defending. He is, at least seemingly, on the level. I'd rather have the entire house filled with people I don't agree with but are open to reasonable conversation than those that claim to "agree" with me but will screw the American people in response to the pleas of yet another lobbyist.

Who is "The Left" anyways? I think any reasonable person should think this is silly and unfair...not some "Left" that doesn't really represent anyone.

EDIT: The real question of course is why? Fox is known for doing little things to misrepresent stories...or writing a script which they follow...all quite damning but most very subtle. This was something someone had to search for and find with the expressed desire to misrepresent a reaction...perhaps because they do not like Ron Paul. You have to wonder whether this was a couple techs with opinions or it was an editor/director, or did it come from higher up the food chain.

What interests me in this case is Fox's success with propaganda, simply driving home the questions that Obama wasn't born in this country has causes the public to shift to that way of thinking. It's an amazing accomplishment and it was done with just talking about it constantly, this was actively editing something to try and fool an audience. Now say there was an incident much like the sinking of a ship...do you think Fox's talents could drive us into a war much like the newspapers did with the Spainish American War or even World War I?

Can I be the first to say that it sure took a LONG time to get to the point? Maybe, Media Matters should pick this up. What's up with the guy at the 2011 event taking 12 hours to contemplate at what decibel level it would be OK to talk? He's not Conan for crying out loud.
