The Ron Paul Campaign and its Neo-Nazi Supporters

I am not a huge fan of Ron Paul. His foreign policy is irrational, imo. That said, guilt by association is what is being perpetrated here. Black propaganda is another name for it.

Read the article and see if you still think that.

[elhombrelibre]

Ping.

[bigfootbob]

I don’t buy your excuse. Paul could take Medved’s advice and disavow the neo-nazi’s, problem solved.

Ron Paul: Stormfront.org's officially endorsed candidate for 2008.

[AppyPappy]

Paul invites this type of support.

[wideawake]

Has Ron Paul repudiated Stormfront's endorsement? Not at all.

Not at all.

[Badeye]

While I see your point, its not that much different than the tactics Ron Paul is using, blaming America for the actions of others. Blaming his own party’s leadership for the attacks.

And then making public he didn’t vote for his party’s nominee in 2000, nor in 2004.

Given his assine positions, I figure whatever is done to him is in fact self inflicted.

If he had the cajone’s he pretends he has, he’d be running as a Libertarian, or as a Democrat.

[elhombrelibre]

Terrorists and Nazis support him especially in the Middle East.

[RKV]

Not really. His policies (at least domestically) are pretty reasonable. At least to me. Foreign policy-wise, he’s out of line.

[RKV]

I’ve read his policy statements, which have more weight than this article.

[RKV]

I don’t much care what one talking head says - i.e. Medved. Paul doesn’t have to respond to him. The fact is that Paul would never achieve his legislative objectives because too many parts of both major political parties like big government.

That said, guilt by association is what is being perpetrated here. Black propaganda is another name for it.

That's the intent. This is from a pro-Giuliani site. The thread poster here couldn't stand it was being refuted when it was posted on another thread so he posted it here in Breaking.

Much of the information is false, intended to poison Ron Paul's candidacy, relying upon the long list to convince people that it just must be true. However, many of those listed as working on the campaign or in the Meetups have already been kicked out. And that neo-Nazi website doesn't have any Ron Paul fundraising banner on it like the article says.

I don't know if every bit of it is false but only a few minutes of checking (if you have the stomach for it) will reveal that large portions of it are false.

[SoldierDad]

Where there is smoke . . . . . .

[wideawake]

What actually has weight is what you do when you think no one is looking - not the crafted policy statements you publicly make.

And when he thinks no one is looking, Ron Paul takes checks from Nazis.

And that's all one really needs to know about him.

Breaking News eh?

In other Breaking News, McCain tacitly admits Hilly is a Bitch.

Breaking, Breaking, Breaking. Get your broken news here!

[The Old Hoosier]

This isn’t an article, it’s a non-grammatical info-dump. And it’s not breaking news, either, I’ve seen most of this stuff before. So much feigned outrage over an imagined problem, rehashed today just because Paul is suddenly gaining a little bit of ground in the polls.

If you actually think Ron Paul is a racist or an anti-semite, just say so.

[Dan Middleton]

The fact is that Paul could return the donation from Black and make an official statement saying he doesn’t want the endorsement of this crowd, but he hasn’t. And that speaks volumes. He can’t stop scumbags from supporting him, it’s true; to blame him for that WOULD be a fallacy of guilt by association. But he CAN say unequivocally that he doesn’t WANT their support.

[RKV]

So Julie Annie, Mitt and Fred all have to vet each and every donor? I think not. Her Thighness sure does not. As long a the Nazi’s meet the legal requirements it’s no big deal. That’s the American way - innocent until proven guilty, amigo.
