Fox News edits Ron Paul's answer to electability question

Carl Cameron of Fox News asked Ron Paul in last Thursday's Fox News debate in South Carolina about whether he is electable.

How did Ron Paul respond?

Well, you wouldn’t be able to find his answer if you watched the rebroadcast of the debate, because Fox News cut Dr. Paul’s response!

But don’t worry… Thanks to the wonders of YouTube, you can see Ron Paul respond here.

When he he was on the Glenn Beck show Beck gave him 3 minutes to respond at the end of the show. On re-broadcasts they ran a spiritual healer infomertial for the last 3 minutes of the show and censor Paul's response. CNN or Fox what's the difference.

You can hear Rudy Giuliani's high pitch laughing.
Hey Rudy, did they cut your nuts off to kill the cancer?

Note the reaction of the other candidates at the very end, some standing with their hands in their pockets and some hanging their heads down. It seems as though the shame in their own behavior set in, momentarily at least.

This was probably one of Dr. Paul's best moments in the debates so far. Therefore, it needed to be excised from Fox's rebroadcast. I just wonder that the debate moderators never seem to get tired of being put in their place by Paul.

At least Dr. Paul is fun to watch.. LOL

Well it is tough to know who is electable at this time. The Democrats are fighting and the Republicans are sitting just watching the meltdown. We as a country need to get it together forget about party lines and get a business man in the helm. We need to make business decisions as a country and forget about who we hurt until we heal ourselves. Unfortunately, all of our choices are professional politicians.
