I can show you dozens of pictures with "Ron Paul" and 9/11 truther and racist/anti-Semitic sayings side-by-side without breaking a sweat.

Please do, and make sure that they were actually at Ron Paul rallies instead of supporters doing these things on their own.

Are you saying they're all photoshopped or some kind of media conspiracy? Just like "all those Obamacare victims are liars"?

Oh, not at all. Dr. Paul had his kooky supporters. But what percentage of these kooks actually represented Paul or his supporters? Probably less than one-tenth of one percent. I was at Paul's rallies in 2008, the people there were no different from today's Tea Party supporters. In fact, many Tea Party supporters got their start in supporting Ron Paul.

Paul has had a great influence on the Tea Party and in bringing the limited government debate back into the GOP fold. No amount of hating is going to change that.

Hardly. From the Ron Paul supporters I've met face-to-face, I'd estimate around 70-80% of them are kooks, and the remaining 20-30% are rational "tea party" types. The biggest Paulbot I know went from supporting Sarah Palin is being convinced that "9/11 is an inside job" and that "the zionists" control our government, once she joined the Paulbot movement.

But... but... having to come up with actual evidence instead of throwing out cheap innuendo is too much like work!
