I thought for sure there were strippers involved, but then I have to take into account I was never in student government.

I'll ask you for the second time: how do you know he was falsely accused? Maybe you were at the same airport and you happened to be following the lad around, but somehow I doubt that. I'm betting that you're just making it up (or, to use your words, "jumping to conclusions"), but feel free to prove me wrong.

He is against everything Obama stands for, and you, as a liberal. His recent book Government Bullies probably isn't sitting well with those power freaks. They'd love to deport the whole Paul family, or arrest them for something.

Kids will be kids, especially at that age.
I don't see it as a reflection on Rand Paul.
Isn't it great that we live in a country where the lawmaker's kids are booked right along with ours? I know we all complain about this and that but no one is above the law. That is what makes the country great.

It's becoming a thing, the disgusting classless behavior of people in public, drunk or not. Somehow I got through the youthful party years without wizzzing all over, beating people up and exposing myself.

If Rand Paul's son was being disorderly and obnoxious, good, arrest him.
"If" is the point.

Seems appropriate to me. My track team once did a 24 hour relay run for charity. 4 of us took turns running a mile for 24 hour (we each ran 20+ miles overall). We were also drinking during most of the down time. I was pretty tipsy (and running a lot) throughout the morning.

Are you serious? How is somebody going to be sneaking booze aboard with the TSA sticking their hands down our pants and xraying every piece of baggage. Get real. THINK

sorry coalman, I like you, but let's not assume any of this is true. It's all allegation as far as I'm concerned.

You're drinking days are interesting, but they have nothing to do with this, unless you were served while flying in a plane - that would be relevant.

If your guess here is correct, would you at least then concede that it represents an alcohol problem?
