Rand Paul gets Four Pinocchios, yet again. "Rand Paul’s suggestion he looks to Eisenhower for ‘inspiration and guidance’" Rand really needs to check his facts before he opens his mouth. He's entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own FACTS! Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/....._blog.html#pagebreak
This is probably the funniest "fact check" to date. Their "facts" are the opinions of some other person and how they think Eisenhower would respond in Syria and other modern day foreign affairs. They even say "Eisenhower would probably arm the Syrian rebels". PROBABLY.
Box, are you that gullible, that someone else's opinion of a historical figure is FACT? Now I know why you are so ignorant.
That makes sense. Libertarian Party is an oxymoron.
I agree... like Compassionate Conservatives... The Right is just full of Oxymorons!
~ The term Republican an oxymoron? I mean Republicans believe in the smallest government possible, don't they? So what are they doing in government?
~ REPUBLICAN THINK TANK
~ Caring Republican
~ Progressive Conservative
~ Congressional Ethics

Your disagreement is with me Cicero... It's with the WASHINGTON POST. Take it up with them.

No, I'm laughing at you for reading another persons opinions as fact. You posted your whole hearted endorsement of the article as FACT. Duhhhh!
My post said: Rand really needs to check his facts before he opens his mouth. He's entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own FACTS!
Do you disagree? Isn't everyone "entitled to their own opinion, but not their own facts?" Don't you also agree that any politician should "check his facts before he opens his mouth?"
I know facts are not your strong suit, but making it up as you go really doesn't help.

If he checked the FACTS by reading the WaPo "fact check", he would have been checking the "facts" against another persons opinion. LOL!
But yes, I agree, WaPo has a right to their opinions, they just shouldn't advertise them as "fact". And readers should be intelligent enough to not be fooled when opinion is advertised as fact.
Randy Paul defended himself against Christie's most recent allegations that the senator was bringing home too much money for his state: "This is the king of bacon talking about bacon."
Earlier in the day, Christie chastised Kentucky for taking more federal money than New Jersey: "So if Senator Paul wants to start looking at where he's going to cut spending to afford defense, maybe he should start cutting the pork barrel spending that he brings home to Kentucky."
Paul talks a good game but as US Senator from a Welfare State, Paul has a problem putting his money (Actually, Taxpayer Money) where his mouth is.
List of Welfare States (States that get more tax dollars than they give)
New Mexico $2.03 -1 Mississippi $2.02 -2 Alaska $1.84 -3 Louisiana $1.78 -4 West Virginia $1.76 -5 North Dakota $1.68 -6 Alabama $1.66 -7 South Dakota $1.53 -8 Kentucky $1.51 -9 Virginia $1.51 -10
Yea, Small Govt, Anti Tax Rand Paul's state of Kentucky, consumes more tax dollars than they produce. They suck at the Welfare teat to the tune of $1.51 for every dollar that they produce.
How embarrassing to be a RP Groupie!

Hmmmm... Hillary or Paul in '16, A tough choice for Republicans!
Quoted Text
If Hillary Clinton runs against Sen. Rand Paul in 2016, Sen. John McCain would have difficulty deciding who would get his vote.
In an interview with The New Republic published Wednesday, McCain laughed that a matchup would be a "tough choice." He went on, "Let me just clarify that. I think that Rand Paul represents a segment of the GOP, just like his father. And I think he is trying to expand that, intelligently, to make it larger."

Yes. McCain will vote for Hilary, so will Romney. So will Bush, so will Cheney. The statists will rally around the statists. Protect government power at all costs.
Bush needs to support whoever will protect him and his Administration from being prosecution for war crimes by the international court.

Rand Paul surrenders... Invites Christie for a beer
According to Politico:
Quoted Text
Sen. Rand Paul "is ready to bury the hatchet" with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie "over the oldest of summits -- a beer at the local pub."
Said Paul: "Anytime he would like to come down and sit at a pub right around the corner from the Senate. We'll have a beer."
"When asked on his monthly call-in show Wednesday if he would be willing to have a drink with Paul, Christie said he is too busy to make it a priority but will 'look him up' if he is ever in Washington."
"But the battle lines between the two men have been drawn in a more lasting way. More than anything else, what the firefight revealed was the extent to which Paul and Christie - two pols who have thrived on the appeal of their raw authenticity - have placed drastically different bets on the future of the Republican Party."

Sen. Rand Paul, "A Hitler Appeaser" "Rand Paul makes America the enemy"
NSA uncovered an AlQaeda Cell in SENATOR RAND PAUL'S OWN BACK YARD... KENTUCKY!
I wonder if Randy Pauly knew that AlQaeda was there??? I wonder if Paul was hiding Al Qaeda in Kentucky??? I'm sure they chose Paul's home state as a 'friend of Al Qaeda???
We should ask Cicero... his BFFL (now departed) was an Al Qaeda top player.
