Giuliani, like Paul, is a Republican presidential candidate.

Deadly accurate, on oh so very many levels! ROTFLMAO!!!!! ;)

The Anti-Defamation League plans to ask Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul to distance himself from extremist groups.

Um...that would encompass nearly all of his constituents.

[mysterio]

I don’t for a second believe that Paul is a racist. He probably doesn’t want to give those stormfront skinheads national attention.

The Paul campaign hasn't figured it out yet, but ignoring the issue won't work. If they want support from these people they should state they'll accept suport from anyone, that support doesn't signify acceptance of their ideology. That may cost them a bit in that community, but as you'll note from White "burn the Jews" Will's statement below, their interest in Paul is normalization and recruiting anyway. Of course if this hit's the mainstream media, the GOP will have to respond, which I've no doubt they'll do clearly.

White Supremacists Rallying Around Ron Paul's Presidential Campaign

On Oct. 4 Will Williams, a former leader of the National Alliance, a neo-Nazi group, posted on the neo-Nazi Vanguard News Network that white supremacy supporters should support Paul for president.

"Till then I recommend folks get involved in the Ron Paul 'revolution' and work with political activists in your communities who are attracted to his anti-globalist message," Williams wrote. "Be disciplined. Blend in; find common ground with them and artfully radicalize those who are receptive and avoid those who are not. ... Most of you would be surprised at how many good people can be exposed to a, let's say, 'pro-majority' message among the remarkable groundswell of fed-up, mostly white Ron Paul supporters -- many, early on, from the 9/11 truth movement. They are finding their backbones as they are exposed to more and more hidden truths, especially about the hidden hand of Jewry behind every foul venture."

Normally I have a dislike of the ADL, because they have a habit of trolling for antisemitism among often innocent conservatives, while ignoring the much more currently dangerous antisemitism of the left.

We see some signs of the pattern again here, since Paul is generally considered a right wing nut by the media.

But in this case, I think they are absolutely right. If you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. Ron Paul has a lot of these flaky, racist supporters. And he seems to have no qualms about taking their money and accepting their support. Add on his frequent comments about the evils of the Israeli lobby, and I think you have a real problem.

[YOUGOTIT]

Hell folks Democrats support al-Qaeda and I have not heard one word about this from the ADL lets treat everyone the same when making racist remarks. But of course Liberals are never raciest only anti-American, anti-Israel and anti-Freedom.

[alloysteel]

The very nature of libertarianism is to allow the existence of various highly polarized groups, and from time to time, make common cause with these very same highly polarized factions. There is this somewhat naive belief on the part of the libertarians, that once they have made their very transparent goals known to all, the other formerly highly polarized opinions will be modified or discarded altogether.

In a way, libertarians are as blinded by their very idealism almost as much as the “greenies” are blinded by their hypersensitive concern for a limited number of problems.

[gnarledmaw]

The ADL? That is series. Quick, better post a news release from SPLC, too...

[reagan_fanatic]

I’m sure once Paul gets back from his consultations with the Romulans, he’ll be happy to answer any questions.

[Allegra]

Oh, this is rich... :-)

Forgot to Ping you to this. ;)

In response to a question from a reporter for Reason magazine, a campaign spokesperson said, "If people who hold views that the candidate doesn't agree with, and they give to us, that's their loss."

Uh, no, ya poll-spamming bong-hitters. It looks badly upon YOU to seeming have no issue with accepting funds from racist/hate/extremist organizations.

BTW--did you return the funds donated with stolen credit cards yet?

[Hacksaw]

An anti-American group demands that Ron Paul return contributions from racists. Hmmm - hard to choose sides with this one.

[free_life]

Ron Paul, ADL and the white supremacist groups are all a threat to conservatism.

[Altura Ct.]

Screw the ADL. They are no better then the SPLC. A Marxist & socialist proponent.
