Rand Paul Assailed by Tea Partiers for Taking DC Money (But They’re Fine with Neo-Nazi Money)

Tea partiers and far right ideologues are angry at Rand Paul for taking GOP money.

Rand Paul’s campaign manager Jesse Benton explains:

The GOP primary was a battle for the direction of the party, and Paul won it with his platform of requiring balanced budgets and complete opposition to bailouts, said his campaign manager, Jesse Benton.

“Dr. Paul accepts financial support from anyone who wants to support his ideas of limited government, term limits, balanced budgets and real reform but makes it clear to them that money will not influence his votes or positions,” Benton said.

And we know that’s true, because neither Rand Paul nor his father have any problem accepting money from neo-Nazis, either. See:

At some point, would it be an appropriate question to ask why neo-Nazis and white supremacists are so strongly drawn toward the politics of the Paul family?

The gorilla is on an island,eats bananas and has a good time all day long. He plays out there in the bushes. Some Americans find out about the gorilla and they hear how BIG he is - you know.They're very impressed with the size of the beast. So they catch the gorilla & they stick him in a boat & bring him back to the US. They show him off to everybody & make a bunch of money. ...Then they kill him ! -- The song King Kong.1968 tour Wisconsin.
