hahaha... i acknowledge the ron paul newsletters as the racist bigoted propaganda that they are and dont buy his "i didnt ever read them and didnt know what was being printed and distributed regularly under my name" lame ass excuse...
and now i suppurt globalist war monger's
thanks for the laugh...
If these letters were George W Bush's or Mitt Romneys you guys would have a field day... as would I...
no really, i have a really nice bridge for sale... i will give it to you for a song... peanuts even...
as a paul supporter, the newsletter thing is confusing and a bit of a kick in the gut. but based on paul's past, i'm willing to hold off complete judgement on the whole thing, regarding his involvement or non-involvement in these letters.
i'd like a more complete explanation of the whole thing, but ron's still my guy. especially after housing everyone at the debate tonight.
amen.
If I opened it now would you not understand?

and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

Because everyone else other than Ron Paul is a war monger. :rolleyes:
RP was killing me on cnn with Wolf Blitzer. "i love the Blacks!" Sheesh.
ok sorry, i left out gravel and kucinich. there are no other anti-war candidates, unless i'm forgetting someone else.
i may be banned for this but i am compelled to call you the fucking idiot that you so obviously are.
Ron Paul is NOT a racist!!! stop trying to fling the ONE mud ball (all you idiots can come up with) on his name.this is the ONLY guy who really cares about this country.
when you're in a soup line or gulag or bleeding to death in some foreign country your last moments will be spent in deep regret for allowing yourself to be a manipulated,dis-informed,dumbed down fucking buffoon.
but till then do me a favor , SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BedWetterB kickin out the dope rhymes. enjoy your ban. you need it. this place is too much for you. I feel like your head is going to explode just by reading your posts. get back in the studio and work on your album.
no, i'm too much for this place.sorry to spoil your illusions with the truth,everyone go back to sleep now.

is that all you've got?
please don't tell me you think obama or hillary are anti-war..
they are pro American national security. that doesnt equal pro war
what does threatening iran and pakistan have to do with pro american national security?
Ah we know who you are voting for.
The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.
hahahahaha...
is that the best you got? i dont think that little foolish blurb deserves a ban...
re-read it... then you might realize how foolish it sounds...
dont blame me, i didnt write the newsletter...
if you continue to deny these newsletters... then perhaps you should take your own advice and "go back to sleep"
ron paul could burn a cross on CNN and you mofo's would still swear he was the libertarian jesus
cant shake your allegiance to this racist assghole... just becasue he is "your guy"
it's funny... i had more faith in the Pual supporters... but when "their guy" gets caught with his pants down... they refuse to beleive it... anybody that continues to blindly support this guy and try to explain away these writings with HIS NAME ON THEM is just being foolish and viewing "their guy" with some real thick blinders on...
and being a libertarian does not mean you CANNOT be a racist... thats just silly to suggest
i said that the whole thing is confusing, and i'd like a more thorough explanation of it all. and again, if ron paul is indeed a racist, show me something else that backs that up. i've yet to see anything else out there from all his years in public life - including 10 terms in congress, which he had to get elected to - other than some 15 year old newsletters that he may or may not have been involved with. calling him a "racist asshole" is a little much, when there's little to back it up with.
actually I'm undecided. but you can take ron paul and kookynich off my list. I wont be voting for them.
you have it backwards. it was Iran threatening a US ship. while I dont believe it was a very big deal, I would rather have a president you can recognize a potential fo then pretend we are friends with an Islamic extremist government.
and when have we threatened pakistan?
may or may not be involved with?
hahahahaha...
IT WAS HIS FUCKING NEWSLETTER
hands we obviously dont agree on much but its funny to see these paul supporters defend him.
what if bush had a similar newsletter? yikes.
I said this in another post, but I don't believe that Ron Paul is a pointy white hat klan member, BUT you guys expect people to vote for this guy for President of the United States when he can't even control a NEWSLETTER WITH HIS NAME ON IT .
Sounds like a perfect candidate for President to me.
As Gob would say, "Come on!!!"

the question is the level of involvement. look, i understand that this junk went out under his name, and he bears at the very least some responsibility for it. it's very disappointing to me that his name is attached to it.
if we do come to find out for sure that he had any hand in writing this stuff then obviously i'll have to consider to, for yet another election, not support a candidate for president. i'm holding out judgement here because most of paul's policies are ones that i feel very strongly about, and i think his message is one that needs to be heard. multi-national, corporate interests are driving this country into the ground, and more war and more spending and more enforcement of things like the patriot act are not going to save us, and yet all the other major candidates are proponents of all of those things.
that would be a circus...
but honestly, a Bush newsletter like this would only prove what we already know

WOLF BLITZER today, speaking in gerund phrases, examining the Ron Paul newsletter controversy, interviewing the Republican presidential candidate, who claims not only that he had no hand in writing numerous racist and homophobic items that appeared under his name over a period of years, but that he does not know—or care—who did write them.
Mr Paul is probably not himself a racist, and many of the sentiments he expresses in his CNN interview are admirable. It is equally plausible that the hateful items published in his newsletter, so different in style from the congressman's own speech and writing, are not his handiwork. But his protestations of ignorance, both about what was being disseminated on his behalf and who was responsible, are much harder to credit.
While his statements sometimes leave the impression that Mr Paul simply licensed his name to people with whom he had little contact, there is much evidence to the contrary. The newsletters that appeared under his name were published by M&M Graphics and Advertising, a company run by Mr Paul's longtime congressional campaign manager Mark Elam—which Mr Elam himself confirms. And according to numerous veterans of the libertarian movement, it was an open secret during the late-80s and early-90s who was ghostwriting the portions of Mr Paul's newsletters not penned by the congressman himself: Lew Rockwell, founder of the Ludwig von Mises Institute, and members of his staff, among them Jeffrey Tucker, now editorial vice president of the Institute.
Mr Rockwell denied authorship to Jamie Kirchick, the reporter whose New Republic article published earlier this week reignited controversy over the newsletters. But both Mr Rockwell (who attacked the New Republic article on his site) and Mr Tucker refused to discuss the matter with Democracy in America. ("Look at Mises.org," Mr Tucker told me, "I'm willing to take any responsibility for anything up there, OK?") According to Wirkman Virkkala, formerly the managing editor of the libertarian monthly Liberty, the racist and survivalist elements that appeared in the newsletter were part of a deliberate "paleolibertarian" strategy, "a last gasp effort to try class hatred after the miserable showing of Ron Paul’s 1988 presidential effort." It is impossible now to prove individual authorship of any particular item in the newsletter, but it is equally impossible to believe that Mr Rockwell did not know of and approve what was going into the newsletter.
This matters because, while Mr Paul may disavow the sentiments that were expressed under his name over the years, he has scarcely disavowed Mr Rockwell, who remains a friend and adviser. Mr Rockwell is one of the congressman's most vigorous online boosters, accompanied him to an appearance on The Tonight Show, and often publishes Mr Paul's writings on his Web site. Mr Paul now says the identity of his ghostwriter is of no importance. But if the person responsible for spreading venom under his name for many years remains a close associate, it suggests that Mr Paul is at least prepared to countenance pandering to racists, however respectable his own views. The candidate owes his supporters a far more complete explanation than he has thus far provided.
