That is what was in the Texas Monthly too! Did you read it? In the Texas Monthly, he admited that he foolishly stood by the statements when originally published.

Wrong! Here are the relevant Texas Monthly remarks: "but those words weren’t really written by me. It wasn’t my language at all... They were never my words, but I had some moral responsibility for them . . ."

Here's what the above post states: "Dr. Paul denied suggestions that he was a racist and said he was not evoking stereotypes when he wrote the columns."

Paul never states he wrote the columns in the Texas Monthly article. The newspaper quotes him as saying so. Big difference. Paul is a fraud.

From Texas Monthly 2001:
those words weren’t really written by me. It wasn’t my language at all.... They were never my words...

From Dallas Morning News 1996:
...Dr. Paul denied suggestions that he was a racist and said he was not evoking stereotypes when he wrote the columns. He said they should be read and quoted in their entirety to avoid misrepresentation.

From 2008 Press Release:
I have never uttered such words and denounce such small-minded thoughts.

So what is it, they were never his words and anyone that utters them is small minded or they were his words and just taken out of context?

“Foolishly stood by” describes his actions and his supporters well.
