Thanks for the post, SJackson. You know what they say about that thing about Pavlov's dog...

Now it turns out that Perry, Paul's point man in response to questions raised by the Jewish Telegraph Agency, is also accused of stealing money from the local New Hampshire branch of the Libertarian Party. What a great guy! It's only an accusation. And the "Libertarian" Perry was in 2006 running for New Hampshire Legislature as a Democrat.

Perry was never Paul's "point man." He was someone, an individual, doing his own thing and decided to be a crook. More guilt-by-association BS that has no bearing on Paul's campaign.

It turns out that some folks actually buy-in to Ron Paul's blither about US dollars being "phony money". Here Paul is talking about "phony money" at a recent Ron Paul rally outside the Philadelphia Mint with a large crowd including -- surprise, surprise, -- some more white supremacists.

So the author chooses to casually dismiss Paul's solid argument on why the dollar's in a tailspin (OPEC has announced to dump the dollar, BTW) and simultaneously scour a crowd of 5,000 to find a few white supremacists. Did the author find the veterans in attendance and the black woman dressed up as the Statue of Liberty? Of course not, it would have defeated the purpose of writing the article to begin with. The author's journalistic skills are on par with Helen Thomas.

Some of Paul's gold bug supporters been trying to pass so-called "Liberty Dollars" off as real currency at stores nationwide.

No evidence of this whatsoever (of people using the Liberty Dollars as currency), just another hyperbolic accusation mashed in among an article full of hyperbolic accusations. Phase 3 of the Ghandi rule has begun...

Reason wants us to believe that Ron Paul has absolutely nothing to do with Ron Paul dollars.

Uh chump, that's because he didn't.

But Paul's "troother" supporters believe that George Bush and ‘the Jooos' personally crawled through the ductwork at the World Trade Center to wire the explosives for controlled detonation.

Ridiculous non-sequitur. Anyway, Paul doesn't endorse the Truthers or believe that 9/11 was an inside job. But I know the author had a deadline to meet his skater buddies at Taco Bell for lunch and had to throw in the obligatory Jones reference to make his article more appealing.

The Democrats and their media are using the Paul campaign to scrape six years of accumulated "toother" scum off the Democrat Party, deposit it into the Libertarian movement make a little mess for the GOP. With Obama, Hillary and Edwards all refusing to promise to withdraw troops from Iraq by 2013 Democrats dream of losing the "surrender monkey" tag.

More hyperbolic rhetoric. First of all, there is no "libertarian" movement, it is a movement of freedom and liberty that everyone from all backgrounds and political stripes are embracing. Second of all, leftists have no incentive to support Paul, especially finding out the hard way that he doesn't support socialism, envirowackoism, & military intervention in pet liberal causes around the globe. Finally, the notion that the Dems and media would waste their time on Paul is laughable. Someone explain to me: Why would leftists support Paul when he is the polar opposite of their beliefs, including the war and foreign policy?

No anti-Semites, KKKers, or FBI raids in sight anywhere -- just ‘conspiracy theorists'--but all neatly "disavowed." Really? Was that when Jesse Benton -- Ron Paul's national communications director -- said "I cannot say that we will be rejecting Mr. Black's (Stormfront) contribution?"

Apparently, the author didn't get the memo. Jesse Benton has already stated that white supremacists were wasting their money on Dr. Paul. Paul is up to 100,000 donors now, what is he going to do? Purge through them all for those with racist views for the benefit of those who'll still loathe him anyway? Perhaps the author & FReeper SJackson (that's YOU) should ask why Haley Barbour sat with the Council of Conservative Citizens or why John Ashcroft spoke with the white supremacist magazine Southern Partisan. Both served in some capacity of the GOP/Bush administration. (Cue sounds of crickets chirping & Disney cartoon animals laughing in background)

Meanwhile the mainstream media is mostly ignoring the cesspool of neo-Nazis, Klanners, Holocaust deniers, and gold-bugs-with-the-FBI-pounding-on-their-door, surrounding Paul.

Uh, buddy...that's because they don't represent Paul's support as a whole. Maybe the author should go to one of Paul's rallies and see how many nutjobs are in the audience. I guess that ordinary families and people are all kooks & Code Pinkers just because they're not supporting the candidate of the establishment's choice. Nice. The only people who are making a big stink out of this is you guys who want to trash Dr. Paul's good name and smear him as a racist because you can't refute his record, his integrity, and his reputation.

I'd never thought I'd see the day when "conservatives" resort to the same totalitarian tactics that the Left has used for years.

Perhaps the author & FReeper SJackson (that's YOU) should ask why Haley Barbour sat with the Council of Conservative Citizens or why John Ashcroft spoke with the white supremacist magazine Southern Partisan.

You might recall that Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council was managing a Republican campaign for U.S. Senate back in 1996 and paid David Duke $82,500 for his mailing list. Perkins was then fined $3000 for trying to conceal the payment. FRC denies they knew they were buying the list from Duke but refuse to address the candidate's appearance before the CCC. Perkin's own later run for the Senate only brought in 10% of the vote and analysts write that they thing the earlier Duke/CCC connection ruined his prospects for national office. He then became president of FRC.

Maybe FRC is another bunch of Nazi racists too.

Perry was never Paul's "point man." He was someone, an individual, doing his own thing and decided to be a crook. More guilt-by-association BS that has no bearing on Paul's campaign.

The only paid staffer in the state until recently was another young activist, not this Jewish pagan Quaker or whatever he is.

Another leading unpaid supporter in NH is a former state representative who is very influential in pro-life circles. She's been campaigning hard too. And we expect the Tancredo folk in NH to come over to the Paul campaign as soon as Tanc drops out.
