6. "Now is the time when people need to be listening to him on economic issues."
A spokeswoman for Paul confirmed that the episode took place but declined to provide details. "We don't want it to distract from his message," said press secretary Rachel Mills. "Now is the time when people need to be listening to him on economic issues."

OK, promise, but only until the movie comes out.
