She probably loved it. She wants to appear stronger than Mr. Obama.

Can hear him now--War Hawk, Benghazi, War Hawk, Benghazi......yawn.

The next two years will be torture (and I don't mean the Bush/Cheney kind).

He's showing an amazing turn of speed...I can't think of anyone who flip-flops faster except Willard Romney, who could 'change his mind' in 20 minutes.

Destroying a group of freaks who want to take over the world and make everyone living under sharia law while beheading Americans to get their message across is different than Drone striking weddings.

I think most people agree we are doing the right thing hitting ISIS, but that has nothing to do with Paul's flip flopping.

Paul has always said that the U.S. should be more judicious in the use of military force.

He was very vocal about Hilary being a War Hawk when we killed innocent people with drones, and ISIS came around.

I don't see that as flip flopping, you guys are just being too critical of him.

Hmmmm. I would have thought "buzzard" more appropriate.

Ted Cruz is married to a Goldman Sachs Managing Director. Does this make him an official part of the Wall Street tribe?

He, like all the others, has no problem with soliciting and accepting money from the Wall Street tribe.

Obama has no problems with accepting anyone's money either, so what's your point?
