Former Senior Aide to Ron Paul Turned FIERCE Ron Paul Critic Claims He Has Never Heard Ron Paul Say A Single Racist Word

Eric Dondero, the former senior aide to Ron Paul who is now a fierce critic of Paul's foreign policy left this comment on my blog recently, the last I've heard from him in months now... and he actually had something very nice (and very true) to say about Ron Paul regarding the latest attempt by the media to smear him!

I worked for the guy for 12 years as his personal assistant/travel aide. I can honestly say I never heard a racist word come out of his mouth in that entire time.

There were only two instances in that entire time that could be categorized as possibly "homophobic." But that's it.

Paul is in no way an Anti-Semite as many charge. He has no problem with Jews in the United States. He is however, passionately opposed to Israel, and wishes the State would not even exist. He sees it as a burden on the US taxpayer and too much of a hassle for our foreign policy.

There's many lies being spread by both sides these days, the diehard Paulists, and the liberal media. Nobody wants to bother to get the facts straight. Doesn't fit either one of their agendas.

Bottom line: Ron Paul is not a racist, or bigot or anti-Semite. But he does personally feel uncomfortable around homosexuals, (as do a huge number of older folks), and he most certainly opposes Israelis, (not Jews!).

And for those of you who don't know Eric Dondero, he positively detests Ron Paul's foreign policy and bashes Ron Paul on a regular basis. I don't know that I've ever heard him say anything nice about Ron Paul, other than the typical "he's solid on domestic policy" preface to a rant about how loony Ron Paul is and how he should be no where near the White House.

If any Republican would be inclined to pile on with the racist accusations, it would be Eric Dondero, and if any Republican would have the credentials to do so given his close association with Paul for many years, it would be Eric Dondero... and yet Dondero says he has never heard Ron Paul utter a single racist word.

Curious, isn't it? Ron Paul isn't exactly known for self-editing, not on camera in front of millions of viewers, and therefore certainly not in private among close associates. And Eric Dondero, who can't stand Ron Paul, and who even takes his jabs at Ron Paul's foreign policy in the comment above, publicly claims that he never once heard Ron Paul utter a racist word.

So can we just talk about the issues now? Instead of this drivel that Ron Paul did not write? ...unless you're calling Ron Paul of all people, a liar ...which would be stupid of you.

Barack Obama Tattoos

With Barack Obama's approval ratings still at a solid 62%, I became suddenly curious to know how popular the 44th U.S. President really is. Are people so enamoured with President Obama that I could do a quick Google search and turn up some photos of people with permanent tattoos of Obama inked into their very skin? Oh yeah. It's that bad. Below are ten examples of Barack Obama tattoos (some decent, some pretty awful). PS: As a control, I decided to Google "bush tattoos." I found only two examples in the first couple pages, and they were decidedly anti-Bush. I also learned to never, ever Google "bush tattoos" again. Seriously. Don't. There are some gross tattoos out there. In the interests of full disclosure, I must admit that I am not a fan of President Obama . But I've got to say that the tattoos above aren't nearly as bad as this: Editor's note: The pictures are linked to their respective sources. To view the source pages, simply click ...

Legal Marijuana On The Michigan Ballot for 2018

A Michigan ballot initiative to legalize recreational marijuana received enough valid signatures to qualify for a vote in November. When the required number of ballot signatures was certified by the State Board of Canvassers, the 4-0 decision of the board was met by cheers from supporters of the initiative who were present, the Detroit Free Press reports . Rick Thompson, a board member of the Michigan National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), put this ballot initiative in perspective as a matter of the State of Michigan safeguarding its own sovereignty and protecting its own citizens from an intrusive federal policy: "The people of Michigan deserve this. They earned it. We've faced many trials and tribulations. We've had so many stop and go signs from the federal government. That's why states have to take the reins on the issue and really be the crucibles of democracy that they've always been intended to be." Indeed the last time ...

What I did on the ten year anniversary of 9-11

During my brief trip to Korea, on the ten year anniversary of 9-11, I did exactly what the terrorists didn't want me to do: I lived without anxiety. I lived without regrets. I lived without fear. I let nothing intimidate me. I let my soul be still. I laughed with my friends. I tried something new. I marveled at nature. I sang at the top of my lungs... badly. My heart was at ease, because I spent all day knowing that for me, this day and every one that preceded it for the last decade was not about the terrorists, but about loving my life, the world I live it in, and the people with whom I am so lucky to share this world. The best memorial I could offer for so many thousands murdered ten years ago, was to ignore their murderers, live without terror in my heart, and in its place let blossom joy.
