You can read the newsletters yourself and draw your own conclusions, as I have done. There are some scans of them around the Internetz
It's not really about the racism anymore now. It's about him being a lying liar who is not telling the truth.

Plus of course that 'I didn't write it' is an extremely flimsy excuse.

'I didn't start that furrin' war, it was my Secretary of Defense'

Let's see if I get what you're saying here. You think LadyShea is white, and because she is supposedly white is unable to identify racism. Oh and an appeal to authority thrown in for good measure. Did I get that right? :awesome:

Default Re: RON PAUL 2012!!!!

The NAACP characterized some of RONPAUL's statements as racist back then, hence his remark

Quote:
"If someone challenges your character and takes the interpretation of the NAACP as proof of a man's character, what kind of a world do you live in?" Dr. Paul asked.
Quote:
Gary Bledsoe, president of the Texas NAACP, urged Dr. Paul to apologize for his comments about blacks and asked Republicans to denounce their nominee.

"We need someone who can represent all the constituents of Texas, not someone who is negative or engages in stereotypes," Mr. Bledsoe said. "Someone who holds those views signals or indicates an inability to represent all constituents without regard to race, creed or color."
So this NAACP guy is better at opinions than that other NAACP guy?

Why are you so afraid of Ron Paul?

The racism obviously doesn't bother you because I don't see any threads about Obama's racism.

Are you familiar with the term tu quoque? Because Obama could be the Grand Wizard himself and it still wouldn't justify Ron Paul's appallingly racist newsletters, his later defense of them and his refusal to tell the truth about who wrote them and why he approved them.

You can choose to characterize the circumstance like that, but your words are not the reality of the circumstance.

Again, why are you afraid of Ron Paul?

I don't understand why RONPAUL is pitching a little fit over being called out for the racist content of his newsletters. He could end the entire controversy right now! He should just explain that all of that racism in his newsletters, that was just a nameburn.

LOL. Only because you refuse to read the interview quotes and the newsletters with his name on them.

Are you a person of color, Jerome? If not, then how can you gauge what is and isn't racism?

He approved all of those newsletters. He claims he didn't read them, which may well be true, but according to his former aide Eric Dondero he signed off on every page. That doesn't necessarily mean he personally holds those despicable views -- in fact there's a fair amount of evidence that it was a politically calculated attempt to appeal to the conspiracy/anti-government/affirmative action-is-racism-against-poor-benighted-white-mans crowd, a sort of Libertarian Southern Strategy -- but he sure as shit needs to cop to having personally approved of their distribution under his name.

Or is personal responsibility just a slogan to you?

He ended the interview when she asked him if the joos did 9/11.

The funny thing is the majority of you are Democratic supporters and you seemed to have no problem with a Grand Cyclops of the KKK being the highest ranking Democratic US Senator.

RONPAUL just does not know! He doesn't know how those racist newsletters with his name on them got written, or published under his name, or how he made all that money from them, or whether or not he wrote them, or if he didn't write them exactly who did write them, or whether he approved them or even read them at all, or why neo-Nazis love those racist newsletters so much, or whether the Mossad bombed the World Trade Center. RONPAUL just does not know, ok! Now please, leave RONPAUL alone, he is 76 years old and also the Republican frontrunner.

Also, the Iowa GOP is shitting a rather hilarious brick because people will quit caring about their dumb state once caucus voters declare this ancient racist to be their choice for President.
