Mark Levin weighs in on Ron Paul’s controversial newsletters that were written back in the 1990’s and says that he just doesn’t understand how Ron Paul didn’t know what was being written. Just doesn’t make sense.
Here’s an excerpt from American Spectator today that exposes some of the more controversial parts of these newsletters:
Here, according to Reason, was a potential Republican nominee for president who had for whatever rationale acquiesced to having a newsletter sent out under his name that used the most vile of racist language. To wit, this from the May 22nd Dallas Morning News in 1996:
Dr. Ron Paul, a Republican congressional candidate from Texas, wrote in his political newsletter in 1992 that 95 percent of the black men in Washington, D.C., are “semi-criminal or entirely criminal.”
And this, from the Houston Chronicle on May 23, 1996:
…we are constantly told that it is evil to be afraid of black men, it is hardly irrational. Black men commit murders, rapes, robberies, muggings and burglaries all out of proportion to their numbers.
And this from the Austin American-Statesman, also on May 23, 1996:
Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5 percent of blacks have sensible political opinions
Here’s the audio of Levin:
