Wait, didn't the Paul meetup groups boot the scumbags? Isn't that exactly like what you just described?

White Willie "burn the Jews" Williams was booted, though it's not clear if it was the Paul campaign or the meetup site which is a source for lots of folk other than Paul. I say uncertain because to my knowledge there's been no statement.

As to Willis Carto advertising Paul as a columnist, no answer three weeks after Medved raised the issue, a couple months after it was on the internet, nothing on David Duke, Don Black, contributions and donation link at Stormfront, nothing from the campaign at all. BTW, if you check the meetup site, members of the group are quite upset about banning White Willie. Latest endorsement, Hutton Gibson, admittadly a less prominent Holocaust denier.

Sould the MSM decide to get into the issue, it will be ugly for Republicans, though only for awhile, since the GOP will reject it and likely Paul. You might note comments 112 and 121 for how the media handles even minor incidents. This is a very stupid move by Paul. Adaptted from two of Reagan's condemnations of the KKK, here is what I've suggested for Paul. Probably take 2 minutes to release it, return Don Black's $500, and block the Stormfront link. The issue is put to bed.

I have been distressed to learn that I have been receiving support from various hate groups and that my columns have appeared in their print publications. The latter will end immediately. I do not want such support and that I repudiate it and reject the ideology these people stand for.

I have no tolerance for what these groups represent, and would have nothing to do with any groups of that type. The politics of racial hatred and religious bigotry have no place in this country, and are destructive of the values for which America has always stood. Those of us in public life can only resent the use of our names by those who seek political recognition for the repugnant doctrines of hate they espouse.

I firmly believe that there is no room for partisanship on this question. Democrats and Republicans alike must be resolute in disassociating ourselves from any group or individual whose political philosophy consists only of racial or religious intolerance, whose arguments are supported only by intimidation or threats of violence.

We must, and will, continue our unified rejection of such elements of hate in our political life, for while there are many issues which divide us, it is fundamental principles such as this which will always draw us together.

As far as I’m concerned, I’d rather Ron Paul have that money rather than it for to be in the pockets of racist scumbags. I don’t see how this is not logically legit, and the obsessing over it is ghey as hell.
