Former Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul tweeted out a racist and anti-Semitic cartoon Monday before swiftly deleting it amid a backlash on social media. The cartoon featured a range of minorities depicted in stereotypical terms—including a Jewish man with a hooked nose, a black man with large lips as well as portrayals of Asians and Latinos. The four men are shown punching up at an Uncle Sam figure together with a speech bubble that reads, “Cultural Marxism!”
Together, with the cartoon, Paul wrote: “Are you stunned by what has become of American culture? Well, it’s not an accident. You’ve probably heard of “Cultural Marxism,” but do you know what it means?… More here:"
Paul soon deleted the post, replacing the cartoon with an image that had the word’s “political correctness” crossed out.

Nothing is funny anymore; it’s all racist and offensive. He’ll hear about this!!!
Okay?
He’s about to be 83 and is retired from politics, he shouldn’t give a crap anymore.
There is nothing in the constitution to stop someone from being racist. Just as it’s not illegal to be stupid.
Who ever is running Ron Paul’s twitter needs to be fired, if it is paul himself he needs to retire.
While I agree that the term "racist" is thrown around far too often these days, in this case the shoe fits. The cartoon is racist and anti-Semitic.
How can you have diversity without diverse people?
“Nothing is funny anymore; it’s all racist and offensive. He’ll hear about this!!! “
Nothing is funny anymore; it’s many times is the TRUTH and offensive.!!
But if it was a Caucasian Southern Small Town Farmer, it would be quite OK to cast him as a “KKK. Ugly, Low IQ Tattoo’d ‘Redneck’”
Ben Garrison
It figures.
Apparently it may be a fake and not by Garrison.
The truth is offensive....to those that are exposed by it. Some truths need to be portrayed with a bit more finesse as not to offend the delicate mindsets of the guilty.
That was rather poor judgement. You would think a politician would be more aware of this sort of mistake.
ALL CAPS = poop.
The only reason Maxine did not Tweet worse is because she doesn’t know how.
See the image here...
Doesn’t look like Garrison work and Garrison denies he drew it.
He says a staffer posted it:
