Drudge Report Caught Lying About Ron Paul - WND Gets it Right


The above screen shot was taken May 14 2012 at the Drudge Report regarding a decision from the Ron Paul campaign reported at the Washington Times (Drudge doesn't actually contribute any content).

Drudge's headline quite clearly reads "Paul Out". Yet that is such a misleading headline that if a person was to not bother clicking on the link to the WT story one would naturally be led to believe that, since it's a picture of Ron Paul, Drudge is reporting that Ron Paul is "out" of the race, right? Just as he did with Bachmann, Gingrich, Cain, Perry, etc.

Yet this is totally and completely wrong. The Paul camp is simply re-routing funds to be more fiscally responsible. The Washington Times article is quite clear on this and Ron Paul is quoted as desiring his supporters to vote for him no matter where the campaign decides to spend it's money resources.

So Paul is not "out" and Drudge should be ashamed of himself for reporting like this and stooping to such a scumbag level.

Mr. Paul said he will continue to work to win delegates in states that have already voted and where the process of delegate-selection is playing out. He said that’s a way to make his voice heard at the Republican nominating convention in Tampa, Fla., in August.
Ron Paul hasn't been "out" for the last three elections. He is always campaigning - for a better country and a return to the basics of Republican values. We may not all agree on his methods but one thing is for sure - Ron Paul is not "out".

WND more accurately reported on this in their coverage here with the headline "RON PAUL ABANDONS HUNT But will continue to seek delegates in some states". Cudos to them.

UPDATE!... RON PAUL STATEMENT ON CAMPAIGN GOING FORWARD
“WE WILL CONTINUE TO TAKE LEADERSHIP POSITIONS, WIN DELEGATES, AND CARRY A STRONG MESSAGE TO THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION THAT LIBERTY IS THE WAY OF THE FUTURE.” – RON PAUL
