He Knew All About Those Newsletters: "he always got to see the final product.....He would proof it"

But people close to Paul’s operations said he was deeply involved in the company that produced the newsletters, Ron Paul & Associates, and closely monitored its operations, signing off on articles and speaking to staff members virtually every day.

“It was his newsletter, and it was under his name, so he always got to see the final product. . . . He would proof it,” said Renae Hathway, a former secretary in Paul’s company and a supporter of the Texas congressman.

It's going out with his name on it, he's publishing it... I think it's ridiculous that he expects anyone to believe that he had no idea what people were saying in those things.

The "I never really looked at them" fiction is so tissue thin that you'd need calipers to measure it.

I don't care if they personally don't believe the things. In fact, it makes it worse that they know the evils and lies of racism and choose cynically to provoke it in order to exploit.

They are racists. Ron Paul is a racist. Fuck Ron Paul.
