Paul was one of three U.S. senators to score a perfect 100 percent rating from the Club for Growth in 2012, along with Sen. Mike Lee of Utah and former Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina, who resigned his seat to take charge of the Heritage

I agree, I never claimed Rand Paul was anything but a conservative. I just realize and agree with him that the President gets to decide who he wants to be in his cabinet. Being a veteran and a former or sitting Senator are requirements enough.

I don’t like MOST of O’Bumbler’s appointments, but he is the President, God Help Us!
