— Ace Transcript at the link, video below.
“It’s legitimate, it’s legitimate. These things are pretty incendiary,” Borger pressed.“Because of people like you,” Paul riffed.
Is that his actual, considered position? That the newsletters are incendiary only due to a Liberal Media making them so?
He actually has made that claim before. When these first came to light, he did not disclaim authorship. He simply said you had to read them all "in context" and not seize upon any particular sentence, but read everything he's said "in context."
So he has in fact attempted to claim that these newsletters, like the Ron Paul Survival Report (!!!), were not actually a problem at all as far as substance.
Just this darned liberal media (and only this darned liberal media) making a stink about it.
More: Ron Paul endorsed Cynthia McKinney in 2008 (did you know that?) and yes, Ron Paul gives sneaky little-shout-outs to Truthers.

Posted by: Clutch Cargo at December 21, 2011 02:26 PM (Qxdfp)
Yeah, Republicans always get soft-ball questions. That's because CNN is a corporation, and corporations are right-wing. Also, corporate.
In contrast, I had to defend what a pastor allegedly said, whether or not I was there, which really demonstrates the right-wing media bias we Democrats have to endure. It's an uphill battle.
Walking off the set was not an option, for me. I had no choice but to tackle the issue head-on with a historic world-changing speech. That's what Ron Paul should have done. But then again, there's a reason I have a Nobel Prize, and he doesn't.

OK, I'll ignore the blatant anti-Semitism (not really: fuck him with a rusty chainsaw), but I am still stuck on his existentially dangerous foreign policy. In fact, his economic plans are probably the most solid part of his platform, because the stuff that's has the best chance of happening happens to be fairly good stuff. The other cranky stuff like getting rid of the Fed and returning to the gold standard and reading the entrails of a chicken during the State of The Union just won't fly, no matter who holds the house and senate.

"Now is their moment, they think, and Ron Paul is their champion:" - Ace.
The Ronulans are this way. They were this way in 2008, They will always be this way, until perhaps Ron Paul is defeated in the general election ... 2012, 2014, ...
Ron's newsletters are a start on the road to defeat. Ron can't handle The Truth, and his legions tremble with fear. Perhaps this button needs to be pushed occasionally, and maybe when it does the most good.
Don't forget the (recent, at the time) picture of Ron and a couple of active neo-Nazis ... it was a big deal on LGF in 2008.

And there's another 10-15% who lean this way, but mostly out of laziness. They're terribly uninformed, and don't really care much, so they go towards answers which have a pleasing (i.e. crazy) narrative.
But they tend towards sanity on anything that actually matters to them personally, because in that case they bother to look a little deeper.

Reason were the people pushing RP hard and had to be hit over the head and made to acknowledge RP's antisemitic newsletters. They did so begrudgingly. I really have no use for the Reason kids.
I'm not fans either and they sure do seem to want to be apologists for RP, but sometimes if you're trying to persuade people you're better off using a source they might find compelling (as opposed to bloggers with a point of view they can question or something like that).

He has the choice of calling himself an R or a D, and for all we know flipped a coin to come up with that decision.

you know, Republicans used to help themselves win elections through "racially-tinged" policies (tough on crime, opposition to forced busing, Willie Horton, affirmative action, tough on immigration) that they stood by even when liberals screamed racism.
now they try the whole "more non-racist than thou, we're sorry about the Southern strategy even though it won us a ton of elections blahblah..." and get...3% of the black vote.

There's no chance that would happen. Hell, even if (a .00001% chance) he won the most delegates, he still wouldn't be made the nominee.
Even in the impossible scenario he won, I'd vote for Gary Johnson just to poke the Paulbots in the eye.

The outtakes I've read from the newsletters don't sound very racist. Its a statistical fact that blacks commit most of the crimes when you take into account that they are 12% of the population, and commit 50% of the total crimes in this country. Or that black men are 6% of the population but 50% of the prison population.
I've only read about 5 snippets of the newsletters, but don't see anything that isn't fact, or assumptions made from the facts.
Also SCOAMF was elected by racists, and I don't see the media harping on that.

Ok, some of you morons help me out here. I have a good friend who worships Herr Doktor Paul. The fact that I tell him that Paul would let Iran get the bomb does not phase him. Paul always talking about a return to constitutional government really resonates with him (and me for that matter).
Are there any openly anti-semetic or racist quotes of Paul's that I can use when arguing with this dude? Or is it all second party newsletter stuff that ronulans can just disavow or dismiss? Something substantial and solid, people!

MA actually had a string of GOP govs, but Romney's legacy, beyond liberalism, was an end to that.
He endorsed a lot of legislative candidates in 2007. Every single one lost. Romney would have been crushed. MA has lost all respect for him after he campaigned so passionately about how he wasn't insincere to support abortion rights and strong gun control and then shamelessly passionately went the other way.
A Republican who establishes the rightmost mainstream view as Romneycare and a $75 gun tax is useless. The middle will see the democrats holding truer to their views, and the left will prefer the democrats regardless, and the right is just plain despondent.
Look, if someone likes Romney's legacy that's fine. Free country. Let's just not make the GOP that way. The GOP nominee needs to think the individual mandate is a terrible idea, and needs to support gun rights, and have a great record on judicial appointments (or at least appear to have one).
There are four candidates who blow Romney out of the water on this.

New argument from the institute of political correctness. Ron Paul endorsed Cynthia Mckinney because he hates black people and gets all his arguments from Stormfront!!!!
Honestly, I'm disappointed, I found this website an interesting resources for factual material, relating to the precipitate economic decline and financial blackhole of the U.S. and other western countries. I thought you actuall believed it, but when a Presidential candidate comes along who actually does believe it and advocates the sort of policies necessary to avoid it, you go for the full Bork treatment.
And I fear all the stuff about "Doom" was just for show really. It's really just about war all along. We need to go to war with _____ to save democracy and support our troops and anyone who says otherwise is a John Bircher crank. I happen to agree that Ron Paul errs too far in the other direction, but I'm starting to get the idea that Ronal Reagan would be denounced as a dangerous isolationist in this neocon echo chamber.
