As Kirchick reports—whether describing post-apartheid South Africa as a “destruction of civilization,” alleging that Martin Luther King “seduced underage girls and boys,” warning of “tens of thousands of well-placed friends of Israel in all countries who are willing to wok [sic] for the Mossad in their area of expertise,” or urging white readers to arm themselves after “the first skirmish in the race war of the 1990s,”—virtually every historic trope of racism, anti-Semitism, anti-gay bigotry, or conspiracy theorizing has been featured in the “Ron Paul Political Report” in one way or another.

Personally.. I don't know whether this is true or not.. but hopefully some RP supporters can shed some light on these wild claims?

Whatever you think of the New Republic, it ain't the National Enquirer. It seems like a well researched article. Anyone who supports Paul should read it and see who they are really supporting. I always thought he was a nut, but now I'm positive.

Well, I think Ron Paul is pretty out there, but in the interest of full disclosure, here is what he says in response.

He can respond however he wants but whether he actually wrote the newsletter himself or allowed someone else to write it in his name, it's disgusting.

So he didn't write it, did not edit it, but it was published under his name as editor.

I can see that happening, VERY irresponsible, and due to that it may cost him some votes now (yes there are consequences that come down the line by doing something careless like that).

Now I just hope if he is working in government that he's paying a little more attention to what's done by others using his authority, kind of scary to think about especially from someone wanting to be the next president.
