UH OH. So Ron Paul is a columnist for a white supremacist publication? It’s not just his misfortune to have these people as followers, he actually is one of them? It’s going to be a little harder for him to disassociate convincingly.

Well, I guess Trent Lott really does have something to complain about now. He lost his position of power in the republican party for a friendship while Paul is running for president as a republican.

Let’s give Paul the benefit of the doubt that he had no background on what this site was really about when submitted articles to them. On the surface, it looks like a very libertarian type site.

I doubt Paul would have submitted anything to them if he knew their background..

I am starting to think all of this focusing on Paul’s fans is taking away from legitimate discussions about the one or two major issues many of us disagree with Paul on.

The smears are flying left and right. I would think that some freepers, who have victims of similar smears by O'Reilly and others, would be a little more careful before casting stones.....but the I guess all is fair when trying to stop Ron Paul and defend this war.

BTW, since you wnat to play in the gutter, please note that Trent Lott also got in trouble for speaking to the openly racist Citizens Councils. Ron Paul is too smart a guy to ever speak to that group.

Congressman Paul is not, in fact, a columnist for the American Free Press. All that publication does is reprint the columns from his House website (which are not copyrighted).

SJackson has been corrected on this point in the past (I encourage you to read George W. Bush's condemnation in post 99), yet continues to insinuate that Paul writes for them by using misleading phrasing (as in post #384 - "But yes, Ron Paul is advertised as a regular columnist for the American Free Press").
