You Stay Classy, Ron Paul Supporters

By: Leon H. Wolf (Diary)  |  January 5th, 2012 at 01:33 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

So Jon Huntsman can speak Mandarin and also he adopted a little Chinese girl who was abandoned in a market. Providing us with yet more evidence that they are mostly liberal Democrats who are mad that Obama has governed too far to the right, Ron Paul supporters decided this was a good reason to produce a video putting Huntsman in a Mao hat and jacket, complete with what is I guess supposed to be a Chinese version of blackface:

Clearly Paul’s supporters are smarting a bit from finishing well behind a guy with no money and no campaign organization in Iowa, which was their one and only chance to win a state, and are letting their true colors show. The sooner we are shed of the media treating these people as our allies, the better.

    I left pondering a question.

    A) China typically aborts it’s unwanted children.
    B) Huntsman saved that girl’s life by adopting her.
    C) Doesn’t his criticism of Huntsman’s patriotism based upon adopting a Chinese girl run counter to Ron Paul’s espoused Pro-Life philosophy?

    • benjaminz

      …this is not an official Ron Paul ad, or even something produced by a superpac. Its just a random video produced by a stupid Ron Paul supporter. For all of Ron Paul’s faults, he did not make this video, so it isn’t “his criticism.”

      • Adjoran

        according to Paul, he doesn’t write or even read his own newsletters himself, although they provided him with a six-figure income for several years.

        And he claims to be against wasteful spending but was the third most prolific House Republican in procuring pork and earmarks for his district, inserting them quietly in committee and then, when the final bill is sure to pass easily, he votes “NO” and goes out to brag how he opposes spending.

        Or like when he was a lifelong advocate of “open borders” but changed his mind for political survival when trying to return to Congress, yet claims to be a “man of principle.”

        When people are that deceptive, who knows what to believe?

    • elayman

      Huntsman also credits himself for doing more than anyway to end the One Child policy. I am positive this is nothing that had the authorization of Dr. Paul.

      • http://theconservativehand.com Brookhaven

        120 males are born for every 100 females in China.

        • LargeBill

          Not to make light of an ugly situation, but that 120 boys for every girl ratio has to make dating tough for ugly or poor guys. Even worse for guys who are ugly and poor.

          • renl57

            It creates a eugenics type policy as a side effect: Only the healthiest men get to mate with the women, and hopefully produce healthier children.

            I don’t know if the Chinese government intended it that way though.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=WGcy8MhJo9w#!

      Further to repair-man-jack’s good points:
      a) China’s state-sponsored forced abortion policy has relaxed quite a bit past few years. Two of the unintended consequences are that
      1) China now has a huge surplus of young men with zero chance of ever finding a wife. There are game shows where China’s marriage-minded women display their new-found power in making highly desirable (handsome, tall, educated)batchelors literally grovel. The male rural peasant cannot even afford to buy a wife from SE Asia.
      2) China is also experiencing a too-rapid demographic collapse because there are not enough working age Chinese to support the elderly, and China hs ZERO safety net, ironic for a Communist state.

      b) when the Huntsman’s adopted their orphans from China, and India (that is the frame where Huntsman and the baby have red dots on their foreheads – Hindu!), certainly China was dealing with as many as 400,000 baby girls being abandoned per year. Jon and Mary Kay DID save both lives, but fromoverwhelmed orphanages and futures if not in dire poverty, de facto slavery in India, or human trafficking. The Sex Tourism trade still thrives in East Asia.

      Anyway, I expect far more destructive effectiveness from the Paul campaign.
      A real Manchurian Candidate would never be caught actually speaking Mandarin. The whole point is to be ultra-deep cover mole, like Evelyn Salt in “Salt”.

      btw, Huntsman and Romney have competing big $ fundraisers scheduled for New York after NH.
      Huntsman’s is again hosted by the Lady Lynn de Rothschild, a former Hillary bundler. Considering the Paulbots believe the Rothschilds (foreign bankers!) secretly own the US Federal Reserve, I expect this ad is a trial run at destroying Huntsman in NH.

      The Giuliani big $ donors are conspicuously absent from the Romney invitation.

        That may be the perception left by the official Chinese press. However, like everything else coming out of China, it is not reality. I would remind everyone that the Chinese go beyond forced abortions to forced infanticide. Often even after infancy, the lives of children, particularly girls, are not regarded too highly.

        I do think it is a problem as much with the culture as with the government.

        • aesthete

          I don’t see too many babies forcibly ripped from their mothers’ wombs (or arms, as the case may be) to be led to the slaughterhouse in Taiwan, S Korea, Japan, or the rest of the Sinosphere — except where there was a significant Communist presence (N Korea, Vietnam, China). Generally, most cultures tend towards the opposite (forcing women to pump out babies), which really reveals how frakked up Communist China is.

          • Menlo

            I certainly think government has changed the culture a great deal. However, all Oriental nations do not share that much cultural similarity. Certainly China is and always has been very distinct in many regards. For instance, its culture of fakes and frauds is not new from my understanding.

        I’m not saying it wasn’t a RP supporter who made this video, but does anyone know who actually made it ? For all we know the video could have been made by someone opposed to RP to make him look bad. That’s why it might have been better for Leon to have ignored this ad until he had actual proof of it’s origin.

        • http://908StraightSt.wordpress.com/ mbecker908

          something new like this to “make Ron Paul look bad”. All you’d have to do is republish the crap he’s been doing for 30 years.

  • aeaeren

    Good thing Cain dropped out or we might be seeing some white sheets carrying gasoline cans. Honestly do the people who made this video think this video doesn’t come off racist in anyway?

    • http://theconservativehand.com Brookhaven

      If this was a Gingrich, Perry, or even Romney supporter we’d be shocked. But, a Ron Paul supporter, and the reaction is “oh well, what do you expect from a Paul supporters?”

      Really, you see this way too often from Paul supporters. Stuff so far out there that you wonder “who in their right mind would it?” Yet, they keep doing it.

      Ron Paul didn’t create this ad. OK, but what is it about Ron Paul that makes him attract supporters that do create ads like this (over and over and over again)?

      • refinersfire

        You mean like supporters of others running, that call Dr. Paul’s supporters everything under the sun? I have worked with the GOP since 1978, helping Rep. Bob Walker(Pa) get elected. I worked with Newt, (tho I really wish I hadn’t now). Worked for Pat Toomey’s election twice. You know, when both Bush and good ol Rick undercut Pat in 04, because we had to have the seat.. what happened there?????

        Which brings up another thought, in 04 I had many upon many Pro-Life Democrats either call or come to the polls hoping to vote for Pat. Not understanding Pa has a Closed System. Should I have insulted them and spit on them, because they were vile Democrats?

        So keep undercutting votes and then make sure to not understand why the GOP’s choice, you know the one.. anybody BUT Dr. Paul loses in the General, because you have cased away the same voters (anyone not a member of the GOP) that flock to Dr. Paul, that could be said, flocked to a certain Great President… ahhhh.. what’s his name.. oh yeah, Ronald Reagan.

        • refinersfire

          Sorry for any and all typos in the above, I’m fighting a head cold that is winning so far..

        • aeaeren

          there is this ad which is WAY outside of anything decent. I do not dislike Paul, I do very much disagree with his foreign policy and the more I learn about him the more one has to wonder if he isn’t a closet Racist but seeing no evidence of it I don’t even consider it a reason not to vote for him. His foreign policy alone is enough to make me vote for someone else and I pretty much dislike all the choices.

  • goodgovernance

    but it probably seemed like a good idea to Paul supporters as they passed the crack pipe around – which by the way should totally be legal.

    Go Huntsman!

  • texastaxpayer

          Ron Paul would get us the real story if only he could audit the Fed. About 7 years ago, I had respect for Cong. Paul. This is sad and pathetic.

          • Adjoran

            He was just better at keeping it quiet. He told Ed Crane some years ago that his biggest source for campaign contributions for his congressional campaigns was the mailing list of The Spotlight. For those unfamiliar, that’s a far-out, Holocaust-denier conspiracy newsletter that contains material which would send most thinking people recoiling back from it.

            Like all his “audit the Fed” talk, but when he had a committee chairmanship, he did nothing about that or any of the other things he campaigns about as threats to liberty.

            Apparently he has decided his followers are so stupid they can’t figure out the simplest ruse.

    It’s a shame they decided to create such an ad. Not only is this type of attack morally reprehensible, but it distracts us from the real issue here. China is walking all over us, and Huntsman will just continue the scam.

        I perhaps am overusing Palin’s point the other night that the GOP should not marginalize Paul supporters, but I think it’s good one. I do not find the “nature” of support for a Ron Paul candidacy troubling on many of his issues.

        This video seems like something completely random and amateurish — fans of anyone can go off the rails. Perhaps Paul has more fans than others who go off the rails, but there are many important elements of his platform which do attract Republicans and that many of the other candidates are not talking about. The importance of a gold standard and ending fiat money is a critical issue to me and virtually no one else is talking about it, when just a few years ago the gold standard had solid support among conservatives. Perry mentioned the book “Currency Wars” positively in one of the debates and that was a good thing — he could have seized the opportunity to talk more about the financial crisis which is rooted in the Fed and currency system and attracted the more hawkish libertarians and more of the Old Right but he didn’t. Perry is still poised to bring many Paulites into his fold if he starts to emphasize signals he has already given and keeps hammering on the role of state’s rights in our federal republic.

        • http://www.hakubi.us/ Neil Stevens

          We do ban his backers on sight for a reason.

          • justonevoice

            I’m not arguing with that. I am, however, positing that there is a significant portion of his supporters who could be turned off by the GOP if the bashing continues, particularly the younger supporters who are for the first time getting a taste of a presidential election and getting involved ideas of the right.

            I can give a personal story of how I toyed with voting third-party when I was younger but was convinced to stay within the GOP fold principally because at that time (80s) the family of conservatives allowed a healthy debate. I see a lot of myself 25 years ago in his young supporters — full of idealism and looking for consistency in policy which is found in very few seasoned politicians who have had to compromise over the years to secure their elections. In 1988 while I was in college I was the campus representative for the Robertson campaign (a person whom I do not share a religion with but I appreciated his policies). Disillusioned with H.W. Bush as the nominee, I helped coordinate a campus appearance of Ron Paul when he was running on the Libertarian ticket. But after a lot of thought, I eventually decided to vote for Bush. Fast forward to 1996 and I was an ardent Buchanan supporter in the primaries, but I stayed in the fold and ended up working for the Dole campaign in the general election. In 2000 I again supported Buchanan but I did not bolt the party with him but voted for W. Bush. In 2008, I was disappointed with McCain along the same lines as I am with Romney today, but the moment McCain chose Palin, I worked my butt off defending them and proudly punched the ticket for her.

            My point is, there are many of us who consider ourselves of the Old Right, in the tradition of Taft, Kirk, Goldwater and Buchanan, who are still within the GOP because when we were younger we were not called names by people within the party who has policy disagreements or the moderates who were still a healthy chunk, rather the coalition engaged in civil discussion and dialogue on ideas.

          • jakeofalltrades

            It’s best we disassociate from Paul, lest history judge the GOP as anti-Semitic.

            Give it a couple decades post Paul for the taint to clear. This party has never been the party of racism, not since day one.

        • http://908StraightSt.wordpress.com/ mbecker908

          Tell me why you would want David Duke standing on the stage at the Republican debates, because there’s not a whit of difference between Paul and Duke.

          The gold standard is a long discredited monetary policy and was responsible for more booms and busts than fiat money ever has or ever will. The problem is NOT fiat money, it’s unlimited spending by the Fed.

          • justonevoice

            and buys bonds (which I suppose is a type of spending but it is not the spending I think you were referring to). The Fed loans money which it creates (by various means) virtually out of thin air or by colluding with the Treasury Department to float bonds. The Fed loans money to banks at manipulated and under-market interest rates to promote various social policies or to encourage local banks to be looser in its lending policies. This creates malinvestment and bubbles. This is not the only reason we experienced the problems of the past few years, but it is a significant reason the housing bubble occured and subsequently burst (it was inevitable that it burst).

    Most people would see learning a difficult foreign language and adopting a little girl who needs a home as good things.

    As an ambassador I would hope Huntsman would learn to speak the language and show respect for Chinese culture – and my opinion of him just went up a notch.

    As to disowning Ron Paul supporters — I don’t entirely agree. We should thoroughly disown this revolting racist nonsense — but I’ve known a lot of Libertarians who aren’t total idiots and are passionate about capitalism and reducing government.

    You run into a lot of people who self describe as Libertarian or Libertarian-ish but don’t really buy into all the extreme nonsense. They probably vote for Ron Paul and such and likely are comfortable in the libertarian community (where they have friends) and yet — are (quietly) moderate enough to be not -far from Republicans.

    Maybe taking on Libertarian ideas and explaining logically why they wouldn’t work — in a way that demonstrates laws don’t just exist to deprive us all of freedom and is respectful would be effective in engaging some of the non-insane elements.

    Or maybe some substantial debates that focus on some of the differences in conservatism and libertarianism and conservatism with respected thinkers from both sides…

    • refinersfire

      “This has been obvious for a long time anyway, and I don?t understand why the Bush Administration has been so slow to respond. Nor do I think that high-profile diplomacy is an appropriate response. We should be responding quietly, killing radical mullahs and iranian atomic scientists, supporting the simmering insurgencies within Iran, putting the mullahs? expat business interests out of business, etc.

      Basically, stepping on the Iranians? toes hard enough to make them reconsider their not-so-covert war against us in Iraq. And we should have been doing this since the summer 2003. But as far as I can tell, we?ve done nothing along these lines.” – Tennessee Law Professor Glenn Reynolds

      So I guess that makes Bush a Killer also right? Since one of his supporters called for the murder of another human.

    of his New Hampshire supporters, who made the video.

    This is a pattern with him. He didn’t know what was in the newsletters that he supposedly wrote and went out under his name. Somebody named “Ron Paul” sent out a tweet mocking Huntsman in Iowa, Paul said it was not he who sent it. “Somebody else” sent it. Now he will be saying he has nothing to do with this video..

    The point is the kind of people he attracts. Over and over we are shown that beneath the veneer of idealism, there is a very wide streak of savage racism, nativism,, and ruthlessness that is quite disturbing.

    And yes, it is vile to attack the innocent children of a candidate (Huntsman’s daughter Asha, adopted from India, is also seen briefly). Our liberal friends are always talking about how children of candidates need to be protected, will they speak up now?

    The Charlie Chan music is especially cheesy.

    Considering the video is obviously not endorsed by the campaign and pretty shoddy, I think the diary is a low blow. There are a ton of bad videos people make for all sorts of crazy things that candidates or causes cannot control.

    • http://908StraightSt.wordpress.com/ mbecker908

      “uncivil names”? The difficult part is finding adjectives that will pass on a family friendly site. And honestly, since the site is family friendly, that’s all the more reason to delete any reference to Paul and ban his followers.

      • refinersfire

        Dr. Paul is the ONLY person running that stands for Israel’s Right of Self-Defense, without having to ask America first:

        “Our foreign military aid to Israel is actually more like corporate welfare to the U.S. military industrial complex, as Israel is forced to purchase only U.S. products with the assistance. We send almost twice as much aid to other countries in the Middle East, which only insures increased militarization and the drive toward war.[29]

        We have adopted a foreign policy that has left Israel surrounded by militaristic nations while undermining Israel’s sovereignty by demanding that its foreign and defense policies be essentially pre-approved in Washington. That is a bad deal for Israel, as sovereign nations must determine on their own what is a most appropriate national defense. On foreign policy as well, the U.S. steps in to prevent Israel from engaging in dialogue with nations of which the U.S. administration disapproves.[29]”

          stating that he would have stood by during World War II and let the Holocaust happen. Sure, he might believe that Israel has a right to self-defense–and as President he would stand by and watch them burn without U.S. military support, money, or weapons. Great guy, that Ron Paul.

            This is from the Emergency Committee for Israel, who was brilliant in helping Bob Turner win NY9 that the Weiner had lost.

            From ECI’s email today: “Today the Emergency Committee for Israel released an ad in which Director Gary Bauer explains why conservatives should reject Rep. Ron Paul?s dangerous foreign policy views.

            The ad is slated to air next week in major South Carolina media markets on both television and talk radio, but is being released online today and can be viewed here:

            anyone here who thinks Obama’s new military plan will bring back the Code Pins from Ron Paul is wrong. At least one of the Code Pink founders is also a founder of Free Gaza (and her husband is Hollywood money), and that flotilla concept. They will stay with Ron Paul because they also want Israel to disappear.

            Conservatives ought to be encouraging Ron Paul because he will grab a significant number of delegates (mostly from voters no other Republican will get) and help split the vote enough for a brokered convention. Every conservative in America must be totally focused on stopping Romney at all costs. If that means helping Ron Paul, then by all means, let’s help Ron Paul.

    Apparently you didn’t hear about how Paul’s campaign cleaned everyone’s clock in the real voting after the caucus. You should do some research on how the delegates in Iowa are really awarded, the research which campaign got the most county delegates elected the other night…. THEN come back and talk smack about how uniformed you are.

    THAT would make much more sense.

  • aesthete

    Still, it’s not what you’d call particularly *honest* to attribute it to all Ron Paul supporters, or “Dr Paul” himself. In S Carolina, some dunderhead Bush campaign supporter took it upon himself to helpfully point out that McCain had committed the high crime of having a child with somewhat more melanin content than Caucasians are accustomed to… VOTE BUSH!!!! That guy was, to put it charitably, racist scum — just like this guy, and just for the same reason. Should we hold it against Bush or Bush supporters? Heck no! I know Bush supporters — heck, I kinda-sorta was one at one point — and I can tell you right now that John McCain’s black bastard child was the last thing on the minds of the vast majority of Republican primary voters. I can similarly state with confidence that Ron Paul’s campaign similarly has very little, if anything, to do with hatred of Jon Huntsman’s Mandarin adoptee.

    There’s enough wrong with Ron Paul that we don’t have to make things up.

      he wouldn’t have needed to out himself as a racist in order to d*mn McCain by his progeny.

    he just got The Boston Globe’s endorsement:

    They also went for McCain over Romney in 2008. They are worried about Romney’s turn to the right, haha. Yeah, right! Romney looks a lot better now.

      this is a very big deal. The Globe is very influential in NH. Shows that Huntsman is very well positioned to infiltrate the liberal media establishment. Note they don’t talk about his positions on guns & abortion.

      We are not going to have a successful conservative Presidency until we have a candidate who can win and hold the media as JFK did in his day. The media has been signalling for a while that they are ready to jump ship from the SS Obama, but not just to any republican. Huntsman is the only republican who can hold the media as reagan did (partly). If you have doubts about Huntsman’s conservatism let me know & I will address them.

      Meanwhile this is worth ten points in NH, I’m not kidding.

        for 60+ years, and I know how the Globe works. Huntsman is last in the polls for a reason and he will remain there. He is no conservative. Do you honestly think the Globe would endorse him if he were?

        I don’t want a flawed candidate just because he can “win and hold the media”. I could care less about what the MSM thinks and says these days. The new media is taking over and the old media’s days are numbered in being able to effect election results.

        You can address or list all of what you perceive as Huntsman’s conservative credentials, but I’ll be back to tell you why you’re wrong.

        and New Hampshire allows independents to vote in their primary, so I assume a whole lot of those NH commuters to their Boston area jobs are going to remember what my rural 5th gen Mass neighbor told me on Wednesday (actually she was hissing), “Romney never did ANYTHING for Massachusetts.”

        Romney now has four strike-outs in NH/MA endrsements, from conservative to liberal.

        Puts a real dent in his “electability” myth.

        • The_Rebel

          as I thought I indicated just above, what Republican would want the Globe endorsement, since they would never pick a more electable candidate over one who isn’t?

      Actually it is the first thing in the Republican primary that makes sense. Hope this is the start of a big light at the end of a very dark and terrifying tunnel.

    I had never heard of Alex Jones before seeing him mentioned on RedState. One of my areas of interest is humane incarceration. Of course the incarceration that never happens is the most humane of all. When google searching topics such as TSA, warrantless searches, arrest for taping the cops, etc it dawned on me that this guy’s name is embossed on sites related to those topics. Who is this guy and if he is an unsavory character, what other places are there for activism to resist the US becoming a police state. And yes, I consider Obama’s NLRB part of the police state issue. However, the issue in general is multi-ideological.
