- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -45/+830So where are the know-it-all, cynical diggers who scoffed at this idea and laughed at Ron Paul for opposing it?
- kemp34, on 05/27/2008, -22/+491I remember during one of the CNN Republican debates they asked Ron Paul about "NAU/NAFTA highway conspiracy theories", he answered majestically regarding it being a "conspiracy of ideas" readily researchable on the Net. After the debate, some CNN talking head lambasted Paul for "talking about such absurdities" failing to mention that CNN ASKED Paul about the topic. A couple months later CNN's own Lou Dobbs shed light on the NAFTA highway and the Trans-Texas Corridor. I have yet to see CNN apologize to Paul for their treatment of him during and after the debate. I will not be holding my breath. One thing I have witnessed is that globalists have no scruples.
- AManWithNoName, on 05/27/2008, -14/+424Just because it's a conspiracy theory doesn't mean it's crazy. I think Watergate proved that just fine.
- BaseballGuyCAA, on 05/27/2008, -20/+328First the economic failure, now the NAFTA Superhighway. Funny how all of these "crazy" predictions that Ron Paul made are coming true.
- ANT1138, on 05/27/2008, -11/+276I think it's so ***** stupid when people dismiss conspiracy theories solely because they're conspiracy theories. As if people don't conspire to do things...
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -18/+264I know a guy who lives in Texas, he lost his job at a local newspaper about a year ago. It happened when the maximal ownership rights in the US changed due to a request and a lot of lobbying by some big corporations. At some point he found out that the rich guys who bout up the newspaper were shareholders of the corporations who build the highway.
- visculent, on 05/27/2008, -48/+248Someone PLEASE, I mean please, explain to me WHY it is so illogical, non-considerable, and irrational, to just at the minimum, explore the possibility of this happening or things like this happening. What the f*** happened to Americans these day's? How did the masses become so resistant to the potentiality of any kind of negative imposition by their government. WAKE THE HELL up. Question everything -- in doing such you're not offending your citizenship, you're only defending the wellbeing of your family.
- pentupentropy, on 05/27/2008, -26/+189it's not too late to write in ron paul
- schif, on 05/27/2008, -13/+175So then I am not crazy for believing in the NAFTA super highway?
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -29/+183North American Union, the Amero, the end of USA.
- SaraLiberty, on 08/16/2008, -12/+154Operation Northwoods used to be a "crazy conspiracy theory" too, back in the day..
- avengingturnip, on 05/27/2008, -35/+143Dreaming wistfully of Obama?
- Quick2822, on 05/27/2008, -4/+99Sadly, this will be one of the many things that Ron Paul predicted that will come true.
And, when it does happen.. people will ask "HOW COME NO ONE TALKED ABOUT THIS?!" - inactive, on 05/27/2008, -8/+103We're awake over here friend. Wake up the TV viewers
- Minarchian, on 05/27/2008, -11/+97I think the difference here is the word "theory".
Both the NAFTA highway and Watergate are/were actually conspiracy "facts" rather than "theories". - griffeycom, on 05/27/2008, -12/+86Glad to see someones got it right. I like this woman.
- oderdigg, on 05/27/2008, -10/+79As always, they are cowards hiding behind their disbelief.
- JKap, on 05/27/2008, -8/+65The expression "conspiracy theory" has largely received its negative connotation from the corporate military-industrial government-media and along with a host of other pejorative labels and language (quack, wacky, nutjob, "not serious," etc.) have been orchestrated as a mode of control to limit "acceptable" opinion and to end rational, free debate on a host of subjects. This self-reinforcing control paradigm is perpetuated either consciously or unconsciously by the masses and amounts to mindless groupthink and psychological collectivism.
People do not want to be labeled as "kooky" so they simply dismiss "conspiracy theories" out of hand without the need for further inquiry. To do otherwise would be "crazy." Voila, a self-reinforcing control paradigm.
Certainly, the purpose of this mode of control is not to encourage critical thinking and intellectual curiosity. To the contrary, the purpose is to discourage those things and place limitations upon them. - MrCobaltBlue, on 05/27/2008, -6/+62Yeah because random diggers know more about this than a congresswoman, speaking to congress, about congressional matters.
right?
RIGHT??!! - Lazydriver, on 05/27/2008, -7/+61I've always believed this, and I'm a skeptical Digger.
Skeptical means we double check interests, I mean, this makes so much ***** sense, how can this NOT be true? Really!!! It's so simple - get around American minimum wages by outsourcing to Mexico and ship it from China, I've never thought of this as a conspiracy theory - but a genuine conspiracy! - swordedge, on 05/27/2008, -9/+62Ross Perot... "Giant sucking sound" -- 1992
- bullhead2007, on 05/27/2008, -3/+53In almost all aspects of American life, thinking for yourself, or contradicting popular beliefs has a stigma. You're smart in school, nerd. You like technology, geek. You think the government isn't always right, or has done messed up things, conspiracy kook.
Basically you just need to shut up, read a bible, and let the crime bosses do all the thinking for you. (Nanny state) - inactive, on 05/27/2008, -17/+65Does she have any intentions on running for president anytime soon ??
- allowners, on 05/27/2008, -14/+58This is colonial medicine coming full circle. It has been under way for a long time, there is no big mystery here.
- WeThePeople2012, on 05/27/2008, -8/+51http://digg.com/world_news/Cops_Admit_Agent_Provoc ...
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -3/+46I wonder where Obama stands on this.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -1/+43Well said JKap. They have given us a fenced playground where we can say what we like, but once we get over the fence, then we are either loony or dangerous.
- SaraLiberty, on 08/16/2008, -13/+54That's the CIA / Pentagon sanctioned, controlled MSM for you.
Ron Paul doesn't play ball with the criminals. Therefore, he gets the shaft on their propaganda orifaces and pro-war Military Industrial Complex pandering disinformation networks.
In a pro-citizen, we the people's reality it's "Ron Paul wants you to be *AWARE*" and informed of government secrecy, massive manipulations aka taxpayer funded sell out of America, citizens rights, our freedoms and our Constitution. ***** "Newsweek" and the rest of the treasonous, controlled print and television media could care less than a *****, they're part of the problem. - Denryu, on 05/27/2008, -16/+53Yeah just reading these comments fills me with such hope for America...
"OK so they are actually doing it, so what? What is wrong with it?"
First they dismissed it as nutjob conspiracy theory.
Then when the evidence becomes undeniable they say "Yeah, it is happening, so what?"
Finally, they trample our rights without a whimper of complaint from "the masses".
If you finally acknowledge that this is actually happening, then why have they not been up front with the American people from the beginning? Instead they have denied, scoffed, and worked in secret. Just the fact that this was all agreed to in secret while our leaders lied to us about it should be all people need to be up in arms about it. But everyone is too busy trying to "make a living" they don't care about freedom any more, shame on us. - paradexes, on 05/27/2008, -2/+38Guess most people who believe in conspiracies are crazy. Crazy enough to see past our fears and willing to embrace the reality and truth, while the pundits, and sheeple cower in their fears and attack anyones who has a dissenting opinion. Mob mentalities. I spoke to someone the other day who actually believed what FOX news says, and that anything else anyone says is just "liberal" media insanity. Ironically this person is also very fearful and negative towards anything "new". I have noticed a consistent mentality with people like that. My brother is also one of these people. I tend to take a middle of the road approach on things.
But yea Ron Paul nailed it. And anyone who believed it was labeled as crazy or a pothead or whatever FOX and their stooges decided to label us. But as more people catch on and hopefully common sense (which is not so common these days) prevails, things might get better. If not we will be in the middle of a civil war by the time the next election rolls around. Just sayin, the poorer get poorer and the rich get richer, we will have something akin to the French Revolution. - highlyhigh, on 05/27/2008, -1/+36the scarier part of that story is that these same people are buying media. they will control media and keep their doings looked away from the masses.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -2/+34Bingo! Everyday small conspiracies are perpetrated on people. Why can't anyone wrap their minds around this? Too big? Too scary?
- WeThePeople2012, on 05/27/2008, -4/+36http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/Obama_responds_t ...
He still denies it's existence. - NikoKun, on 05/27/2008, -4/+36That's part of the problem... Society has made the consideration of such things, into a sort of credibility taboo.
It's a great way to hide the real conspiracies out there. - Civilizationist, on 05/27/2008, -2/+34http://youtube.com/watch?v=s6HjTiOu2U0
He thinks its just a theory. - inactive, on 05/27/2008, -10/+41kemp34, the globalists do have scruples and they know what is best for you.
Now just go back to watching your TV and take your medication. Everything will be fine
/ - Civilizationist, on 05/27/2008, -2/+32“Let it not be said that no one cared, that no one objected once it’s realized that our liberties and wealth are in jeopardy. -Ron Paul.
http://www.lewrockwell.com/paul/paul388.html - Sinnic, on 05/28/2008, -3/+32Ron Paul's presidential candidacy was a long shot from the start - but planted seeds have a tendency of growing. What was started is not over.
- ConcernedCanuck, on 05/27/2008, -19/+49CHAAAANGEEE
- leftyslament, on 05/27/2008, -1/+29Democracy...that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
- LeeSoong, on 05/27/2008, -11/+39Obama - Changing the Puppet,
same old fist up the back end...
International Banks, Corporations, transnationals, etc. - grobinson, on 05/27/2008, -4/+31Yea i know some guys in Texas who lobbied for this stuff. Apparently there is not much debate about whether the federal govt or Texas state govt SHOULD do this but the only disagreement is HOW they do this.
It all sounds good, a better state highway system, high speed rail right through the middle of Texas, but its all apart of the U.S. losing is soverienty. - brandoncarrell, on 05/27/2008, -0/+26Which is the exact opposite of a good thing. Assimilating other countries and cultures and dictating new laws to them is called building an empire.
- teddyrux, on 05/27/2008, -2/+28Kids these days...So unappreciative.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -19/+45You'll never hear, all you'll hear is:
HOPE
CHANGE
BU$H! - cybrguy, on 05/27/2008, -7/+32This isn't free trade, its trade controlled by big business, Foreign mega corps will own the highways and charge whatever they want for Americans to ship their goods around. If it is so profitable why wouldn't we do it ourselves? If it is so beneficial to the public why have they been sneaking it in under the radar?
- theOster, on 05/28/2008, -0/+22my vote won't change the outcome of this election. but if *everyone* voted who they really, truly, in their hearts, believed to be a good leader, i can almost guarantee that teh two-party system would quickly erode into a much truer democratic system. it's just that the media picks a winner from this side and a winner from this side and convinces everyone that if they don't vote for one of these two, that they're throwing their vote away. and the pisser is that enough of us believe it to make it so. come november i'm throwing my vote away to rp for the sake of saying no to the two-party system. i encourage everyone else to vote who they think is right and not who the media tells them will win.
- inactive, on 05/27/2008, -9/+31they were here. i remember alex jones talking about this crap at least a year ago. it's nothing new. only new to your dumb butt!
