			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I noted <a href="http://davidharsanyi.com/blog/2010/03/02/the-ron-paul-post/">earlier</a>, the Ron Paul cultists have been out in full force. But I found this rant &#8212; which makes the typical unsubstantiated claims about my views &#8212; to have the most telling line<a href="http://www.economicthought.net/2010/03/the-conservative-delusion/"> I&#8217;ve yet read </a>regarding criticism of Paul&#8217;s anti-Semitic and racist newsletters. </p>
<blockquote><p>Even if he did (write them), it is clear that Harsanyi’s message is that the state should be allowed to intervene in social and private matters, but an individual does not have the right to state an opinion.</p></blockquote>
<p>Huh? How is that clear? I wrote an <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Nanny-State-Teetotaling-Do-Gooders-Bureaucrats/dp/0767924320">entire book</a> making the case that the state should not &#8220;be allowed to intervene in social and private matters&#8221; &#8212; though, I expect it isn&#8217;t radical enough for many. </p>
<p>But it appears many Paul&#8217;s fans are so blinded by their of devotion to a professional politician that they view any criticism of Paul’s writings or organization as tantamount to a state-sponsored intrusion into his right to say <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2010/02/24/ron-paul-grills-bernanke-wasnt-the-fed-involved-with-saddam-and-in-watergate/ ">crazy things</a>.  </p>
