Ron Paul: Slanders Exposed [paul is a racist]

Filed Under Politics, Racism, Ron Paul | Posted on January 28, 2008

This slander has been going around since people first started posting the distortions from the newsletters and is directly tied to those distortions and slanders. The quotes from the newsletters have been going around a long time before tnr.com posted the actual newsletters. Just as the quotes from the newsletters are being distorted and misrepresented so too is the slander that Paul is a racist. If it weren’t for the distorted quotes from the newsletters, claims of racism would be absolutely laughable.

There is absolutely no proof that Ron Paul is a racist. There are no videos of Paul saying anything remotely racist and there are no papers, known to be written by Paul, that would show that he is racist. Quite the contrary, there are many videos and articles by Paul that show him to be the exact opposite; a man fighting racism by pointing out the racist policies of government….

Ron Paul: Slanders Exposed [i miss the closet]

This is the second “paper” on the recent smear campaign against 2008 Presidential candidate Ron Paul. To see the other papers please visit the main page.

These smears are formed by taking quotes out of newsletters, which were published, but not written, by Ron Paul from 1978 to 1995.

The slander:

“I miss the closet. Homosexuals, not to speak of the rest of society, were far better off when social pressure forced them to hide their activities.”

This quote can be found in this newsletter.

The Facts:

When taken out of it’s proper context you would think the writer is saying that he detests the gay lifestyle so much that he believes that society would be better off with gays remaining in the closet. That they should be hidden from view because they are second class citizens. This is the intended purpose of the slanderer, to make it seem to be something it is not….

This is the first “paper” on the recent smear campaign against 2008 Presidential candidate Ron Paul. To see the other papers please visit the main page.

These smears are formed by taking quotes out of newsletters, which were published by Ron Paul from 1978 to 1995.

The Slander:

“If you have ever been robbed by a black teenaged male, you know how unbelievably fleet of foot they can be.”

The Facts:

While most of the attempts at slander have a source within one of the newsletters, this particular one can not be found. I have searched many times for this quote yet it still remains elusive. Until I actually see this quote in a newsletter I’ll have to say it is probably something manufactured and hence just another baseless smear….

Ron Paul: Slanders Exposed

Filed Under Politics, Racism, Republican Party, Ron Paul | Posted on January 27, 2008

On January 8, 2008 the web site tnr.com posted an article about certain newsletters that they claimed were written by 2008 Presidential candidate Ron Paul. The article, written by James Kirchick, made some very strong claims that, he says, are racist, homophobic and filled with “conspiracy theories”.

After the article appeared at tnr.com it was quickly picked up by various other web sites. Sites that normally are fighting amongst each other, like littlegreenfootballs.com (Right-wing extremists) and dailykos.com (Left-wing extremists), have banded together to distort the newsletters and smear the Paul campaign. You know a candidate is a major threat when people on opposite ends of the political spectrum are joining together to fight a common foe. These web sites are cheerleaders of the “establishment” and they will fight anyone who encroaches on or threatens their territory, the Paul campaign is a direct threat to their big government meal tickets. Even establishment old media sites such as Fox News and CNN have printed stories on this smear campaign. I have dubbed this smear campaign “littlegreentnrKOSnazis”. This represents the main four campaigns that have banded together; littlegreenfootballs, The New Republic (tnr), dailyKOS (KOS) and neo-nazi leader Bill White (more about White’s involvement later)….
