One thing you can bet on. The cleaning crew cheered.
Why do you morons come into a thread just to troll.
Why not just scroll past and leave these threads for us that like the guy or want to learn more about him or have a healthy discussion?

Seriously. Grow up.




Rand Paul 2016

I don't know if this country appreciates what he did for us. He alone kept Obama's hit list outside of our shores. Because of him, the drones cannot shoot Americans within the U.S.! Thank God for Ron Paul protecting our liberties, when no one else would.
A few showed up to support him in the 11th hour, but I am remiss to give them credit for letting him hold the fort on his lonesome for over 11 hours, that's pathetic. Where was Boehner? Not one freaking democrat?
Doesn't anybody give a damn anymore?
We either clean out this Congress or we are all going down with this sinking ship.
Term limits, no more lifers.

Agreed.

I think things are going to become A LOT worse before people wake up though.

Just look how money people here don't think we have a spending problem. And think defense spending cuts will save the problems. They can't fathom that welfare and govt. programs are close to tipping the scale.

When the truth hurts, there is never debate, only insults and ridicule, from the ignorant.
Rand is closer to MLK's dream, than Obama ever will be.

All, not a select few.

My 21 yr old son in California emailed me to say he watched the whole filibuster. My 12 yr old listened to it while we worked on his science project over the weekend. If you haven't watched, please consider it. He doesn't just read from the phone book, he makes excellent points and speaks directly to the people in an easy to understand style. Not at all trying to hide his thoughts in legal jargon. Probably because he has nothing to hide.

Thank you Rand Paul!!!
