So, I like Ron Paul. His no-nonsense, uncompromising dedication to the Constitutional principles our nation was founded on is exactly what America needs today. I don’t agree with him on abortion or immigration, but we can fight that one out after he’s elected. In the meantime, I’ve just dropped another $500 into the campaign, which is 5x what I’ve been contributing each week since the first money bomb. I’ve quintupled down on Operation Live Free Or Die, as well, giving $25 instead of the “Five for Freedom” the organizers have asked for. I’m not quite able to quintuple down on the blimp, but I’m going to drop another $50 there to keep it flying through the New Hampshire primaries. Good thing my business is doing OK this month.

Ron Paul: Hope for America
I donated $100 on the 16th.
Check out the radio show Free Talk Live (http://freetalklive.com). It supports Ron Paul.

So, if Ron Paul is so honest as you claimed on pharyngula, why did he lie about the US Constitution being “replete with references to God”?

No Ron Paul supporter has been able to answer that one.

Hey Scott,
Are you suggesting that Ron Paul has ever made any legislative decision based on who has contributed to his campaigns? That’s the only way I can see how it could possibly matter who contributes. If he were like most politicians, I might find it worrisome (just like I find the contributions of the corn lobby to many politicians worrisome, since they then proceed to support dangerous legislation that increases the profit of corn farmers and ADM, and causes immense damage to the health of Americans and the environment), but Paul’s got a decades long record of never voting for anything that goes against the constitution (I’m a little iffy on his religiously motivated positions, but I think reasonable people can disagree on some of those).
He’s always fought to end the most racist policies in America: the war on drugs and the war in Iraq are two very racially motivated American policies, and Paul is vocally against them.
I just don’t think it’s all that interesting that a racist contributed to Paul’s campaign. So did hundreds of Googlers, more military personnel than any other candidate, and me. Does that make Googlers, folks in the US military, and me guilty of racism by association?
