Various hatemongers are demanding that Ron return a $500 donation that supposedly came from another hatemonger.

Even if we assume this man is who we are told he is, so what? Should Ron also return donations from neocons and other Bushites who have actually helped commit mass murder in Iraq? Should he check all donors' backgrounds, or just allow his enemies to tell him which contributions he can take and which he can't?

The National Socialists stood for genocide, aggressive war, government-business partnership, the welfare state, the warfare state, belligerent nationalism, militarism, suppression of civil liberties, abolition of states rights, routine spying on citizens, torture, secret prisons, state abortion, state euthanasia, capital punishment, glorification of the Leader, deification of the state, and demonization of the Other.

Only Ron Paul opposes all of these. If an old-fashioned fascist, or a neo-(con)fascist, should send him a check, that is their loss. Or maybe their conscience is telling them to atone.
