huckabee shoutout: PID as death threat v Ron Paul?

Catholic League president Bill Donahue said Huckabee went beyond wishing people a joyous holiday. Donahue said he was especially disturbed by the cross-like image created by a white bookcase in the background of the ad, saying he believed it was a subliminal message.

"What he's trying to say to the evangelicals in western Iowa (is): I'm the real thing," Donahue said Tuesday on Fox News Channel's "Fox and Friends. "You know what, sell yourself on your issues, not on what your religion is."

Huckabee said the bookshelf is just a bookshelf and shrugged off the controversy: "I will confess this: If you play the spot backwards it says, 'Paul is dead. Paul is dead.'"

He was joking about the Beatles' recording of "The White Album" and the urban legend that if a portion of the album is played backwards, the words "Paul is dead" is heard, a reference to the very much alive Paul McCartney.

I find it very offensive for Glenn Beck to be scrolling the message Paul is Dead, Paul is Dead, Paul is Dead on the bottom of the screen during the interview with Ron Paul.

I think he should make it clear that he wishes no ill will to Dr. Ron Paul. His interview I thought was fair on the surface but he did take the interview into the typical conspiracy camp.

I would like to know why this guy Huckabee thought it appropriate to make this statement that was scrolling by during this interview? Ron Paul was right in that the threat of Theocons taking over the government is a serious threat to our nation. In his statement of earlier in the day he seemed a bit tired and un focused when he was hit with these off Fauxian questions.

I might add that Paul was talking about domestic threats to our nation at the moment that Huckabee's death to Paul comments are scrolling by in this video.

The subliminals are pretty obvious to most any trained observer.
I am quite disgusted ...

I'm not the least bit surprised, it's raining out there.

Amazing. But hey, the word that P may be D is getting out!

I also like how they have "HONEST QUESTIONS" on the bottom of the screen the whole hour. Just in case you thought the interview might have been disingenuous and manipulative, you can be reminded how HONEST HONEST glenn beck is. barf.

There's nothing you can see that isn't shown.


aw, c'mon! Someone was going to say it!

Here's the link to the YouTube video:

"Paul is dead" appears at 4:35

My wife thought I was crazy when I started pointing and shouting at the TV as "Paul Is Dead" scrolled by...loved it, and I agree B, the word IS getting out.

As for the interview, Glenn Beck makes me puke. This so called "Honest Interview" was a joke, which. IMO, was indicated by the number of times Beck actually let Paul finish his statements. Do I love Ron Paul? No. Did I want to hear more about his views straight from the man himself on national television? Yes! Did Glenn Beck really let him say much that hasn't been said? No. (although I do like to hear a presidential candidate mention the MIC.)

Huckabee said the bookshelf is just a bookshelf and shrugged off the controversy....

Yeah sure.. I'll grant there's a small chance he himself isn't smart enough to understand subliminals and their deliberate use, but someone with the eye for imagery saw it and placed it there. However, the way he so deftly used "Paul is dead" as counter-measure (which in most people minds translates to "nutty theory") indicated he knows what he's doing. The "PID PID PID" scrolling by in the Paul interview is downright creepy.

I saw the ad, it also deliberately uses the word "Christmas" quite pointedly instead of "holidays". Which I have no problem with I hasten to add, but most politicians take the more inclusive route of wishing happy holidays, so as to well.. not seeming to only be addressing one group.. (which he clearly was)

We'll, I may be nitpicking here, but what constitutes John Lennon's backward speech on "I'm So Tired" as an "urban legend"? An urban legend is a story alleged to be true without evidence, but when it comes to PID there is evidence in abundance.

But if you listen to Lennon's song, he clearly says "Paul is a dead man, miss him, miss him, miss him." If he isn't saying that, then what does he say?

And why should we think Lennon's speech is directed toward "the very much alive Paul McCartney" (aka the replacement)? It doesn't make any sense! He has to be referring to "the very much replaced, apparantly dead, (James) Paul McCartney."?!

The reference to "the very much alive Paul McCartney" was not intended to describe Lennon's train of thought at the time.

It was editorializing on the part of the reporter-babe who wrote the article -- though I doubt that SHE thinks that she was editorializing.
