Is Ron Paul Changing His Story on What He Knew About Those Newsletters? [YES]
The Blaze ^ | 12/22/2011 | Madeleine Morgenstern

Posted on 12/22/2011 1:11:55 PM PST by Notwithstanding

GOP candidate Ron Paul is again under fire for incendiary racial statements mailed out under his name in the late 1980s and 1990s, though a past interview appears to be at odds with the Texas congressman’s most recent declaration that he knew nothing about the inflammatory comments at the time.

I think the little rubber room refugee never conceived of the possibility that what he was saying then would sink him in the future.

In 1991, for example, he was all over the talk shows elaborating on the allegations regarding our troops clearing trench lines which he had outlined in his newsletter.

He utterly lacks any ability to perceive the long term consequences of the rhetoric he spews.

This is what he gets for going on Leno and trashing everyone.

Now he is has touched the third rail of politics.

He’d be better off being gay than this!

WOOOOOH!

I do. If Paul somehow ended up being the nominee, these newsletters and the fact that he had his picture snapped with former KKK Grand Wizard and campaign contributor Don Black and his son, would result in a landslide victory for Obama.

What a gutless cop out. He profited from them, he promoted them... “but I didn’t write them, read them or even know what was in them”.

Either he’s a liar or he’s clueless. Or both.

RP stated in a C-SPAN interview (1995) that he did write his newsletters.

RP didn’t write those statements.

So, he says. He put his name on those statements and had his picture taken with a former KKK Grand Wizard back in 2007. That makes him unelectable.

“RP didn’t write those statements.”

Just because he admitted to writing the newsletters back in the mid-90’s, wrote the newsletters in the first person, signed his name to some, put his name in a big banner across the top, hired the people who published it, collected money from them and had himself listed as editor doesn’t seem to convince you, huh?

He had a great time calling Bachmann and Santorum bigots on Leno. And his little cult had a great time watching it.

I can’t imagine why they aren’t liking this. Seem like it’d be right up their alley.
