If you can’t say he’s a conservative, why would you push him?

I have “pushed” only one candidate so far...Scott Walker.
But that does not preclude me from opinions of others. When you see some false statements I make about any candidate, please point them out. I will be happy to retract and issue an apology. I go by what I read in news, and I do not claim to be 100% right because I post from memory, which is certainly not what it used to be. I am in my 70’s.

The first thing senator Cruz said about senator Paul yesterday was all positive. He actually praised him!


A class act.

Senator Cruz is a class act. I admire him as a person and like his agenda a lot. Only reason I prefer Governor Walker over Senator Cruz, is that in my opinion the Governor may be more electable.

As I said, unlike you internet trolls, I’ve actually followed his career, and you are simply wrong. Either you know you’re wrong and say it anyway, or you don’t know. Either way, you’re nothing but a troll.

I’m ok with either one at the top of the ticket.

I’m daring to dream. Hillary is going nowhere and I just don’t know if another Dem can get her poll numbers. It’s early but we have as good a chance as anything. If we can get rid of that idiot Bush.

I agree. “Laws” don’t disproportiontely incarcerate people. People that break them get incarcerated. It’s not the white man’s fault more people “of color” commit crimes.

Unlike internet trolls like Jim Robinson?

I think it is clear that you are the troll and you know next to nothing about Rand Paul.

Rand Paul isn’t pro-life, he is pro-choice, and totally squishy on abortion.

Rand reminds me so much of Mitt Romney, he can “evolve” instantly and frequently.

CNN:
BLITZER: So, just to be precise, if you believe life begins at conception, which I suspect you do believe that, you would have no exceptions for rape, incest, the life of the mother, is that right?

PAUL: Well, I think that once again puts things in too small of a box. What I would say is that there are thousands of exceptions. You know, I’m a physician and every individual case is going to be different, and everything is going to be particular to that individual case and what’s going on with that mother and the medical circumstances of that mother.

I would say that after birth, you know, we’ve decided that when life begins, we have decided that we don’t have exceptions for one- day-old or six-month-olds. We don’t ask where they came from or how they came into being, but it is more complicated because the rest of it depends on the definition of when life comes in. So, I don’t think it’s a simple as checking box and saying exceptions or no exceptions.

And there are a lot of decisions that are made privately by families and their doctors that really won’t — the law won’t apply to, but I think it’s important that we not be flippant one way or the other and pigeon hole and say, oh, this person doesn’t believe in any sort of discussion between family. And so, I don’t know if there’s a simple way to put me in a category on any of that.

BLITZER: Well, it sounds like you believe in some exceptions.

PAUL: Well, there’s going to be, like I say, thousands of extraneous situations where the life of the mother is involved and other things that are involved.

So, I would say that each individual case would have to be addressed and even if there were eventually a change in the law, let’s say, the people came more to my way of thinking, it’s still be a lot of complicated things that the law may not ultimately be able to address in the early stages of pregnancy that would have to be part of what occurs between the physician and the woman and the family.

A video in which he comes off as pro-choice, or as he describes it for republicans, he is “generally pro-life”.

Why would you support that?

You do devote a lot of time to promoting and defending Rand Paul.

I’m doing well, thank you, FRiend. Hope you are, too.

It seems the first Republican debate will be in August. That’s a long time to wait, LOL.

Pat Buchanan was the first to challenge neo-cons, maybe as early as 1975.
