Smearing Ron Paul

CounterPunch
by Jacob Hornberger

12/27/07

I couldn’t help but be struck by the vicious smear of Ron Paul by a Virginia Heffernan in the New York Times. …. Sure, politics is a nasty business but I just couldn’t help but wonder why the New York Times would publish garbage like this. Here’s the thrust of Heffernan’s attack: that Ron Paul has received donations from neo-Nazi extremist groups and has spoken at events attended by right-wing extremist individuals. …. Is this ludicrous or what? What are Heffernan and the New York Times suggesting - that Ron Paul, one of the most committed libertarians around, has instead been a closet Nazi the whole time he has been in Congress? Or maybe they’re suggesting that this committed libertarian has, all of a sudden, decided to convert to Nazism. Or maybe they’re saying that libertarians don’t really advocate individual freedom, free markets, and limited government but instead advocate statism and government control over economic activity...
