Hating Ron Paul: Nazis Join the Anti-Paul Popular Front
According to The New Republic, and the Reason/Cato crowd, Ron Paul is a racist whose makes explicit appeals to white supremacist and anti-Semitic audiences through the use of “code words,” and, if he isn’t a racist neo-Nazi himself, he most certainly is representing that slice of the electorate. According to the real Nazis, though, ”Ron Paul is a Jew Puppet.” The outfit behind this pronouncement, the “American National Socialist Workers Party,” (ANSWP), was an early proponent of the meme—later picked up by Jamie Kirchick and the Reason/Cato crowd—that Paul has served as a respectable front for racist groups, claiming that he had attended “white nationalist” gatherings at which Paul was present. The group’s Fuehrer is a real nut-case, and yet he was apparently in on The New Republic smear job long before it was published. The anti-Paulista Popular Front is now truly all-inclusive, stretching from the ANSWP to the editorial offices of Reason magazine. Why am I not surprised that all of these people hail from Washington, D.C., the epicenter of organized evil in the world—gee, I wonder if the ANSWP “Commander” lives near the Orange Line?

Willb, you’re absolutely right! I commented on
a forum that one of the reasons for the sub-prime loan
fiasco is because of government subsidized down
payments and the imposed quota system on banks to loan
to people who would never qualify for a loan through
normal channels. I was immediately attacked as a
racist, even though I had never said one word about
skin color.

Ya, Ron Paul is totally freaking bonkers, but really, does it matter? His campaign was DOA. It obviously isn’t going anywhere. Ya, the lame kids at Digg like him, but thats really about it.

@ lester: I don’t see why your directing your frustration at the Paul campaign. They aren’t the source of the smears, and I am sure their preference would be to focus upon issues like withdrawing from Iraq and abolishing the Fed as opposed to 20 year old quotes from a former ghostwriter for Paul’s newsletter. The Beltway establishment feels threatened by Paul’s campaign and they do not want to have a debate on the issues, so they pull the classic tactic of the smear.

The attacks and/or censorship of Ron Paul are perpetrated by folks who make their living off of the “establishment” gravy train, which Ron Paul not only wants to derail, but also will rip up the tracks. What these shortsighted self-absorbed hacks don’t realize (or are afraid to admit) is the gravy train is either empty or feeding them a pustulant stew brewed from the death of others. Yum, yum eat up suckers, get a big spoon.
Lester, as a fellow Ron Paul campaign volunteer, I would advise you to refer anyone concerned with the unsubstantiated racist slurs against Ron Paul, to his position regarding the war on drugs and the federal minimum sentencing requirements, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8S8N2OG7sU , anyone who views these comments and believes these are the views of a racist is just plain stupid.
And therein lies much of the problem: We are trying to wake-up a brain washed, dumbed down public who has been subjected to years & years of scientific systematic mind control. One pea brain at a time.
Keep up the good work Justin.

GM- so why don’t they make it go away so we CAN focus onthose issues. I’ve had to argue about these newsletters since the begining of the campaign and especially since the Kirchick article. and lewrockwell just sits there and lets it pile up

One more reason to stomp the FED into dust.
Because it controls our money it controls
our culture, our politics and our very lives.
The American people are being held captive.
Our wives and children are being sold into
perpetual servitude by a nameless fatherless
power in Washington.
Ron Paul is perhaps our last chance to free
ourselves peacefully. Barring that, the only
future the majority of Americans have to look
forward to is poverty and debtor prison.
The LEFT has advanced so far that Ron Paul is
a fringe zealot. Once he is discredited we
will never see our republic, the bill of rights,
the constitution or the American dream again.

Justin, once again your well thought out writing receives commendation and admiration. And yes, Washington DC has become the center of most evil in this country. I’d rather go to church in Las Vegas than shake hands with politicians in D.C.

Let’s see here—a Jewish homosexual working for a convicted cocaine trafficker dares to criticize National Socialism and take a moral stand?
You’re a self-parody, Raimondo. Go play with fellow sissy-fag Mark Potok at the Southern Poverty Law Center and leave human beings alone.
