Well, it was bound to happen. Paul gained credibility when he was endorsed by the most famous Republican family in America, so now the conspiracy theorists have jumped ship to join the new underdog: Rudy Giuliani.

On the Tucker Carlson Show, The New Republic’s Jamie Kirchick accused Ron Paul of engaging in a massive conspiracy to propagate a racist agenda by speaking to white supremacists in code. He explained that when regular viewers and Paul supporters think they are hearing a typical stump speech or a press interview, they are actually the witless pawns of Paul and his real, intended audience. Sure, it sounds like Paul is spreading a message of freedom and liberty, but Kirchick insists that Paul has woven an encoded message of hate into his live-and-let-live platform. Kirchick did not explain how he managed to crack the code. Nor did he explain why Paul chooses to spread his message this way rather than, you know…using telephones.

Of course, that would mean that Paul has defrauded the American public to believe that he doesn’t care for white supremacy. But it also means that he spent the last thirty years reigning in all of his White Supremacist furor, while faking the most libertarian platform since Goldwater on the off chance that he may someday run for president, amass enough media attention (because that has gone swimmingly), and finally unleash his true socialist Nazi agenda. If Kirchick is right, we should all fear the dark forces of this kindly, grandfatherly Texan and the dozen-or-so Nazis remaining in America.

Kirchick’s timing would be impeccable…say if he was a Giuliani supporter. He "released" the information on the day before the New Hampshire primaries. When Reason Magazine published a commentary on it, its comment section was flooded with messages from people who are familiar with Kirchick’s work or Kirchick himself. Here are a few:

Alyssa Lopez | January 8, 2008, 1:40am | #James Kirchick is a Giuliani supporter (Giuliani did lose to Paul in Iowa and might just finish behind Paul again in NH) and belongs to the Yale Friends of Israel Group. I am not anti-Semitic nor anti-Israel (I'm actually an observant Jew, want the U.S. to stop funding and arming all foreign nations including Israel and her "enemies", and wish peace for all individuals in that region) and I've noticed that most attacks on Ron Paul come from the same group. This is a group that stands to lose billions of dollars in aid if President Paul becomes president and his ideas are enacted…

 Oliver Stiffins | January 8, 2008, 12:21am | #I went to school with "Jug Ears" Jamie. He was an annoying paranoid zionist asshole bootlicker. I can tell some very disturbing stories about his uncomfortably bizarre antics when drinking. Some things never change…except he may not be drinking.

Theophanes | January 7, 2008, 8:06pm | #I went to Yale with Jamie Kirchick. To think he's had the nerve to call himself a "libertarian" before. He's one of those delightful people who automatically equates all criticism of Israel with antisemitism. I think all of this crap comes out of his cognitive dissonance from being a homosexual supporter of the oppressive, anti-gay, Republican Party.  

If these comments are correct, then Kirchick is a member of a group that stands to be obsolete under a Paul Presidency. He is a Giuliani supporter who stands to loose even more when Giuliani eats another slice of humble pie in New Hampshire. But who knows? Conspiracy theorists can be right sometimes, can’t they? I’m just glad Paul traded them to Giuliani to make room for Barry Goldwater Jr.

Come on Kirchick. Smears are for children and hacks (who are children). If you still can't dig anything up on Paul, you should be voting for him.

Oh and to all my "brothers and sisters": Epare-pray or-fay e-thay omming-cay of-ay e-thay reat-gay hite-way iberation-lay!
