First I am NOT defending any neo-Nazi scumbags, nor am I trying to defend this Kokesh guy, or the Campaign for Liberty because even though I’ve heard of the CFL I have not ever heard of the guy and am not familiar with what is going on...
The thing that bothers me is how people are making assumptions about the candidates themselves in relation to non-official postings on a racist website. For instance, if someone posted something about Bush on that site, and suggested voting for him would people automatically think that Bush himself authorized it, and is directly involved?
How do we know it isn’t someone AGAINST the candidate putting such things on that website in order to make a stronger case? The other thing is that many things are posted on sites like that without the knowledge of those who produced the work (kind of like articles are posted here). Just because a member of the Stormfront group posts something on their website does that automatically mean that the person who wrote the article or whatnot is responsible for it being there, and does it imply that they then endorse Stormfront? I don’t think so...
As I said, I’m not familiar with the specifics you all are talking about, but it concerns me that people may be making assumptions based upon an anonymous posting at that website.
[I’m out the door to the grocery store, but will be back a bit later and I will be checking out the “whole story”. If I’ve misunderstood what’s going on, please be kind! :) ]
I agree. Who did anyone think that these racist scumbags were supporting before RP put his hat in the ring?
Stormfront and neo-Nazis have most often supported Republicans -- and probably supported Bush, Dole, Bush, and even Reagan - and their support is completely irrelevant
It's not who Stormfront supports that matters -- it's who supports Stormfront that matters. And so far, RP is the only one who has publicly rejected their racist creed.
I found through Google 4 full years of links of Liberty Candidate Peter Schiff and Adam kokesh
