The poodle is probably better looking than Mrs. Clinton. And would probably make a better president. If I could, I would vote for a poodle before Mrs. Clinton.

Thank you for not knowing what a filibuster is, yet coming to comment and showing your ignorance.
What you liberals do best.

Rand Paul 2016
Well NO THANKS NEEDED, you can take yours and sit on them.

I'm quite aware of what a filibuster is.

The OP was apparently impressed with someone talking jibberish for 13 hours. Judging by your recent nominees jibberish must impress you conservatives quite a bit.

Yeh well, you liberals have shown you don't have half a brain to think with and see whats happening. That you don't give a damn about the constitution and the rights of fellow citizens that have a different opinion of yours.
You're happy to leave a mountain of debt and worthless currency to future generations.

Just so long as you don't have to deal with it right!? As long as you get yours, **** everybody else including your kids..

I posted something relevant to the thread that you failed to address. Do Police often deny citizens due process or not?
Did you or would you have posed the same question related to using drones on American citizens within US borders to then President Bush?

Clearly you don't....

It was impressive. Many democrats thought so too. Millions of people in fact thought so.

How long was Robert Byrds filibuster? Oh wait, he was a democrat. Nevermind.

I don't know know what the percentage is over his career but it's high, certainly much higher than any other modern President. For example:

Who Wrote Ronald Reagan's Radio Addresses ?

In his campaign for the U.S. presidency from 1975 to 1979, Ronald Reagan delivered over 1000 radio broadcasts. For over 600 of these we have direct evidence of Reagan's authorship of the text of the speeches, in the form of yellow pads, with material written ``in his own hand''. The aim of this study was to determine the authorship of 314 of the broadcasts for which no direct evidence is available.

This tells me all I need to know about you. Mrs Clinton enjoys probably the highest approval rating of any political figure out there.
Rand Paul OTOH

And this is why you will not win in 2016. Because you assume that everyone who doesn't agree with you is a Liberal. But we are not. People who are in the center of Americans politics and registered Independents like me find your extreme conservatism to be a complete turn-off. And until the Republican party stops trying to ram their social conservatism and religious beliefs down our throats they are going to continue losing.

And that might be a lesson that your buddy Rand Paul could take on board.

Clearly you value your O-P-I-N-I-O-N much more than I do because O-P-I-N-I-O-N is all you've offered.

A man could read the Manhattan phone book for 13 hours and accomplish the same thing.

WHY?
