Ron needs a better explanation

 

[Jovan Galtic]

Just let them bark and keep up the good work.

 

[schiffheadbaby]

These liberals are the scum of the earth, they constantly promote victimization and have made millions off the plight of the poor.

 

[braane]

Posting the videos every time someone hates on Ron isn't good for morale, and it isn't good for people who are here and on the fence. The Maddow video is brutal.

 

[zerosdontcount]

this board can't handle the truth and is complete denial about the severity of this issue. Yes this is the media's fault that Paul has racist newsletters that he can't really explain?

 

[Badger Paul]

What's the point in posting these? Do you honestly think they're going to start saying nice things about Ron Paul now that's he's ahead in the Iowa polls? No!

This is war gentlemen and I'm frankly not interesting in wasting my time with the enemy's propaganda. Nor should you be.

 

[Travlyr]

Washington D.C. shills do not want to obey the rule of law, see an end to the wars, or equality. A President Ron Paul is America's best hope for letting non-violent offenders and political prisoners out of the cages. Maddow and Schultz will go to any lengths to keep the corruption going. They are some sick puppies.

The saving grace could be Christmas. People won't be watching the news, time of forgiveness..., and the media will go easier too. If we come back Tuesday and the attacks are start back up we have a problem.

Am I being detained? Am I free to go?

The letters were written in accord with the outreach to rednecks strategy outlined by the guy in your avatar. Whatever Ron does, it's a lose-lose.

Put your head in the ground and hope it goes away.

Good strategy.

This is the one I've been using effectively;

He has already repudiated this hundreds of times. Does every interview have to be #1, will you run third party, #2, IRANNNNNN #3, you've repudiated these 20 year old newsletters written while you were giving free OB/GYN care to minorities and no longer involved politically, but you're really a racist, right? #4 - ok well he has a ceiling.

And repeat those four things over and over? C'mon -- the corporate media aren't even trying to hide their agenda anymore. It should concern everyone that the corporations haven't given but two minutes on the NDAA, or the many other dire situations we are facing, but give hundreds of hours on repeating these same lies against a principled candidate..

Why don't they show some video of Ron's comments on racism? He's given literally thousands of speeches. Oh, that's right -- all of the video they have is about him explaining and being against the inequality of the law against minorities, or being the only candidate on stage against racial profiling. What was Ron Paul doing while someone else wrote these things? He was giving free medical care to anyone who needed it in his community. He's the only candidate that talks about how the drug war unfairly prosecutes minorities(Minorities commit fewer infractions, yet are prosecuted more often). He sees everyone as an individual, not a group - the anti-thesis of a biggot.

This is the last hurrah of the establishment.

And yes - Ron has a ceiling - He's #1 -- I know the corporate jockeys love to talk about Ron's "ceiling" -- and their right -- you can't go any higher than #1

You're not over the target if you aren't taking flak -- and this is the best they've got....

You act as if that isn't what the campaigns strategy has been? Clearly they think it's the best strategy for a reason.

Besides, that isn't my strategy at all. I was just making a statement. I have probably made as many comments as anyone to try and dispute these claims. I have been everywhere from Youtube to yahoo... that only does so much.

 

[gmc1988]

Sharpton chimed in as well. Mr Tawana Brawley himself. The man whose rhetoric caused a riot in Brooklyn which got a Jewish store owner killed. Certainly the right person to bring up other peoples' alleged racism.

 

[William R]

While the campaign ads have been fantastic, this still hasn't been a well run campaign. They should have known last Spring the Newsletters would be an issue again. Hold a Press conference and get it out. Likewise on foreign policy. Develop talking points and drive it home day after day. We are broke in large part because of our foreign policy. America first. Over and over.

Ron is playing in the Big Leagues now and it looks as if he's not prepared.

 

[Travlyr]

Perpetuating racism... divide and conquer.

Which was a brilliant strategy if not for occasionally lunging over the line of good taste.
I have about as hard a time believing that stuff was written by Rothbard as I do Ron... He must be spinning in his grave right now.
That abrasive incendiary tone only reminds me of one person...

Larry O'Donnell?

 

[William R]

No more excuses for the Newsletters. The campaign has been horrible on this!!!

Thought-crime, political correctness, paranoia. What a sorry state the leftists have brought American society to. You are all guilty. Every single one of you. Yes, I mean you! Everyone. You are all guilty of thought crime! No one is innocent! Do not deny it, that doubles your guilt! You all must shoot yourselves in the head so that Rachel Maddow's wrath can be satisfied!

After that is done, Rachel and her ilk can get back to electing politicians who satisfy their arbitrary and prejudiced demands. For it is so much better to have politicians who they can label as politically correct, yet who still kill innocent people through unjust wars, rather than have someone who wants to end the unnecessary wars and bloodshed. They have become fully accustomed to advocating those who will engage in death and murder as long as the rhetoric satisfies their selfish and shallow desires, while at the same time they want to destroy with great venom anyone who would stop the killing. And they find their twins in those on the far right who would also attack anyone who desires peace. The blatant hypocrisy is sickening. These people pretend to take the moral high ground under a false banner of political correctness, while their real agenda is death and destruction. In their state of paranoid delusion, everyone is an enemy, everyone is guilty of some form of thought crime, and their solution is destroy anyone who they feel threatened by. Yes, many on the left and the right share this paranoid illness, and they both cover up their delusions with a lie that they will save us from these perceived evils. To find true evil, they need look no farther than a mirror.
