The continuation of smear: Rand Paul

Now several internet sources are reporting that Rand Paul must be a racist, because his campaign received funds from an organization called "Stormfront", which has a white supremacist website.  These funds were provided through what are called "moneybombs", internet money raising schemes which press folks with a perceived time limit in which to give, thus pressuring folks to give, and give now.  There is nothing wrong with this practice, in theory.  Barack Obama effectively used the internet to raise funds, becoming the number one money raising internet force of all time.

A politician cannot control the people or organizations which supports him or her.  Individuals, or groups of individuals, still have the right to support whomever they choose to support.  This is no reflection upon the candidate.  Any nut can choose to support, either vocally, or with their cash, any person running for office.  Making the case that a primarily powerless white supremacist organization that supports Rand Paul constitutes some sort of scandal is quite a reach.

Perhaps the media ought not go there, given the fact that the Communist Party, USA, supported Barack Obama as a candidate for President of the United States.  One wouldn't want to confuse President Obama with a Communist.

But perhaps the $71,000 cash which was donated by oil company BP (currently involved with the environmental disaster in the Gulf of Mexico) to Barack Obama's presidential campaign makes Obama himself an oilman?

Or maybe the over $994,000 dollars donated by Goldman-Sachs to the Obama campaign makes Obama am international banker?

Who here has even heard of Stormfront?  What power do they have on the world stage?  Do some internet research, and you will see that the answer is "not much".

However, I think we can all agree that the worldwide financial and political power wielded by corporations like British Petroleum and Goldman Sachs really means something, and having a President in their pocket can mean a lot, especially when BP is involved in an oil spill, and Goldman Sachs is involved in a worldwide financial meltdown.

Should Rand Paul return money donated by Stormfront?  Perhaps, given the present political climate, where the left is attempting to label anyone who doesn't support their socialist agenda as a racist, but that's given the money can even be accurately traced, due to the rather anonymous nature of the internet.  To be honest, I'm comfortable in my belief that Rand Paul is the farthest thing from a racist a person can possibly be, so as far as I'm concerned, he can keep the money.  For every dollar Rand Paul gets from Stormfront is one less dollar Stormfront can use to buy white sheets, Nazi uniforms, or Swastika bumpersickers.

But if the media, and others on the left, are so adamant that Rand Paul should return the money, shouldn't they be just as adamant about Barack Obama returning money given to his campaign by BP and Goldman-Sachs?  Or are the media and the radical left really just the hypocrites I've believed them to be?
