Paul fired him because he beat his wife.

Even the most ardent Rittberg haters that I have discovered on the web so far admit that these are rumors.

The Ron Paul supporter who seems to be most vocal about Rittberg's alleged wifebeating is a woman named Carol Moore. She offers as much proof of these allegations as you have - zero. Her "proof" is that she knows that Rittberg's wife is an Asian immigrant and that men who marry Asian immigrants do so because they like to beat up on their wives.

Carol Moore is a left-libertarian activist who had this to say about Ron Paul's 1988 LP campaign after discussing Paul's "outstanding" South Carolina debate performance from a couple of months ago:

"So a few of us formed the still existing Pro-Choice Libertarians and through organizing persistence got him [Ron Paul] to promise not to talk about abortion at all. (See my photo at left from way back when.) We tracked all his clippings (in those pre-news.google days), and except for one slip we caught, he evidently kept his word."

Ron Paul - fake pro-lifer, fake "man of principle."

More nuttiness, but if Paul fired him for beating his wife, that raises the question of why he tolerated a wife beater in a position of trust for a dozen years. Presuming Carol is credibile, I'm sure the Rosie endorsement will win some votes.

Could be true. Maybe his wife really was mugged three times in Houston.
Then again, maybe the rumors about Craig, Foley and Haggard are lies.
