Angry White Man (The bigoted "past" of Ron Paul. Calls black people "animals")

Many sincere people have integrity and an ideology that’ wrong. Run Paul is one of them. Hitler was against abortion, and so is Run Paul. It proves nothing because they have those convictions for different reasons. But Run Paul’s anti-Americanism is dangerous to our country’s survival. It inspires our enemies and their admirers in America; he is either devious or ignorant. His followers here are not conservatives nor patriots.

Drudge just picked this up with the tag line: Ron Paul Shock Newsletters Unearthed: Claim MLK a Gay Pedophile, Praise David Duke, Speculate 1993 WTC Bombing Was Mossad Job...

That’ll do wonders for your credibility.

Credibility or lack of credibility is not a factor when it comes to getting a good smear out. Smear first, check credibility later, when most have already gone on to the next smear.

Who was it who said that just going on a 'couple of times' is no proof of a relationship or something on those lines?

Pick any one of RP's supporters on FR. You have a match.

This was the New Republic bombshell you were referring to this morning? Might as well post directly from the SPLC. If you don't mind my asking, how did you have advance notice of this lefty rag publishing this?

[marktwain]

From what I read, the Authors thought is that anyone who thinks that Black Americans should have no more rights than any other American is a racist.

Typical leftist conspiracy nonsense. Ron Paul is a racist because a group he supports has members who think the South got a raw deal in the Civil War???!!!

[swmobuffalo]

This is almost worth going back to a forum I recently left in disgust because of it’s Paul worship and posting. If for no other reason than to continue to piss them off.

“New Republic for great journalism”

Hard to see those words together without LOL.

If you don't mind my asking, how did you have advance notice of this lefty rag publishing this?

Because the author was on the news last night saying it was about to come out. It wasn't a secret, he told Tucker Carlson on his show last night.

SJackson, I just saw this... I think I have to fix what I've been saying, I thought he was only on there about six times. Who was it who said that just going on a 'couple of times' is no proof of a relationship or something on those lines?

That doesn't surprise me. Six or so have been mentioned, but that's just the last few years. I haven't a clue where anyone could find that number, only Ron Paul and Alex Jones know for sure, and they're not talking.

That Paul is the candidate of choice on the right of Jewhaters, racists, conspiracy nuts and anti-American "patriots" has been pretty well established. To what extent Paul shares their beliefs, rather than simply wanting their $$$, has been open to question. As I've noted many times, the answer was likely to be found in the decade plus of newsletters he refuses to release. The six posted on FR gave a hint. It's clear that if he's not a racist and conspiracy nut, the highlights here don't support Jewhater, he's sure comfortable not only having these folk around, but if the paulistinian excuse is to be believed, writing in his name for over a decade.

He's not a Republican, and most people including the media seem to realize that. This kind of stuff is what keeps third parties afloat, and marginalized. The Libertarian Party should shun this guy.

BTW, if two libraries have a few of these newsletters, others will emerge.

Newsletters

Ron Paul: US "military is mowing civilians down in the streets"

The New Republic is hostile to all real conservatives, which explains why it is going after Ron Paul.

[G.Mason]

" ... His (Ron Paul's) adversaries are often described in harsh terms: Barbara Jordan is called "Barbara Morondon," Eleanor Holmes Norton is a "black pinko," Donna Shalala is a "short lesbian," Ron Brown is a "racial victimologist," and Roberta Achtenberg, the first openly gay public official confirmed by the United States Senate, is a "far-left, normal-hating lesbian activist." "

I call them the same, and worse, but then I am not running for public office; Just a enlisted man in the "militia" waiting to be called to active duty.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I’m sorry but I seriously doubt the racist charge. Don’t believe everything a leftist tells you about anybody on the right.

[jmc813]

To be fair, the Gays for Ron Paul Blog has found some inconsistencies with the author.

You should drop them a comment on that blog inviting them to some of these Paul threads here on FR. These are a queer as a three dollar bill.

Thanks for posting this!

I am NOT a Ron Paul fan, but I do not want to beat him by lying about him. Based on his current views, there just has to be more to this story. I never believe what liberals say about anyone, left or right.

Drudge is running a red headline on this, but when you click on it the server is very slow.
