Paul’s exclusion caused an uproar, with critics alleging that his stand on Israel had earned the RJC’s ire; an absolutist libertarian, Paul opposes foreign aid to all countries, including the Jewish state. “This seems to me more of an attempt to draw boundaries around acceptable policy discourse than any active concern that President Dr. Ron Paul would be actively anti-Israel or anti-Semitic,” wrote Reason editor Matt Welch. Chris McGreal of the Guardian reported that Paul “was barred because of his views on Israel.” Even Seth Lipsky, editor of the New York Sun and a valiant defender of Israel (and friend and mentor of this writer), opined, “The whole idea of an organization of Jewish Republicans worrying about the mainstream strikes me as a bit contradictory.”
While Paul’s views on Israel certainly place him outside the American, never mind Republican, mainstream, there is an even more elementary reason the RJC was right to exclude him from its event. It is Paul’s lucrative and decades-long promotion of bigotry and conspiracy theories, for which he has yet to account fully, and his continuing espousal of extremist views, that should make him unwelcome at any respectable forum, not only those hosted by Jewish organizations. http://www.weeklystandard.com/articl...ps_613474.html Now that the chips are on the table, we can have a real discussion about Paul's newsletters and his continued discussions with Alex Jones where he talks about some pretty wacky stuff. One thing is for certain: You aren't going to have any credibility if you dismiss the newsletters as "no big deal." Ron Paul is simply not presidential material. |

Because maybe Paul did say or do something deemed as racist 20+ years ago, that he expressed crazy ideas with Alex Jones, or that he would prefer to cancel our checks to Israel and other foriegn countries isn't a reason to not vote for him. Even his opinion on allowing Iran to aquire a nuclear weapon isn't a reason.
He's more then fit to be President, and if he was to be elected President.... He would still have to face a presumably Republican congress initially. What could he do ? Can Paul really fight a hostile congress ? |

"Illegal alien" is a slur. I have nothing against Mexicans or Central Americans, but if they are here illegally, they are illegal aliens.
"Anchor Baby" is a slur. The important thing is that the definition does not change, only it's designation. 'Language is important'. Have any Hispanic immigration lawyers represented a European alien? That would make a fantastic docu-comedy. |
