This whole article (the one on top anyway) is full of hyperbolic bull$hit and guilt by association.

Well actually Ron Paul appears to be disavowing some contributions: those given by bankers and Wall Streeters. Corporate money is too dirty for Ron Paul to accept but KKK money is not?

Corporate donations are ILLEGAL. You're trying to establish a false "double standard," but you don't seem to understand basic facts like that one.

As for the donation from Don Black, I'd love to see him denounce the man and his goals in public, maybe even give back the money, but no one thinks Paul is racist or anti-semitic. It's all guilt by association.

This stuff hasn't caught on in the media because it's intellectually dishonest.

He's referring to PACs, should have been more clear.

Actually the points are on target, as you note he absolutely should return Don Black's contribution (a felon as well as neonazi), any other candidate would. He should immediately halt advertisement of Ron Paul as a columnist for Willis Carto's American Free Press, he should block incoming hit's from Stormfront's fundraising link, and you're not the only one who'd like to see him denounce the ideology of the hate groups supporting him. He'd only have to do it once, any other politician would. And I hope you're right the national media doesn't cover it, because they'll tie it to the GOP, not an irrelevant Paul. As they've done many times in the past. I suspect you're wrong.

Did you see ABC's panel. This is the YouTube of it, starting with George Will referring (again) to "My man, Ron Paul". LOL.

YouTube - Ron Paul - far exceeding expectations - ABC News - 11/18
