Message: Entry: Ron Paul, the Birchers, and the Delicate Sensibilities of David Weigel Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/ron_paul_the_birchers_and_the_delicate_sensibilities_of_david_weigel#22692 Post contents: So Ron Paul is a member of JBS. In spite of their conspiracy theory kookiness they have been as close to anarchism as is allowed in bourgeoise Conservative circles. They are, and have been, explicitly non-racist and explicitly anti-antisemite. They were extremely aggresive anti-Communist nut-cases for most of their existence - but that hardly matters now. Communism is dead. "Paleo"-Libertarians have a history of alignments that suit the immediate challenge...and, considering the current incepient fascism of our executive state, a move to the Left is overdue. Murray Rothbard, whom Paul admires, was once a member of the Peace and Freedom Party: nut-cases of a different variety. The enemy of my enemy is my freind. Sent at: 2008 07 04
