On Tuesday, KY Sen. Rand Paul launched a spirited defense of Apple, whose tax strategies were subject to a hearing of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. "I frankly think the committee should apologize to Apple," Paul said. Paul went on to accuse the committee of "bullying" one of America's greatest companies, prompting Sen. John McCain to quickly defend the inquiry and say that Paul's remarks were "frankly, offensive."

Dated a stripper too. Not that dating a stripper should condemn him but he was a party boy who cared about no one and nothing but himself.

Does McLame even make a gesture toward conservatism not and then? He is an 0bamunist drone just like Boehnhead.

McLame does not need to “switch parties,” He could, however move up a level to the Official Democrat Party and not be stuck in the Official Opposition wing of the Democrat Party anymore.

Rand Paul spoke as a guest on the Mark Levin show last night. He said he didn’t support the amnesty bill. He said he would NOT vote for it.

Marco Rubio the liberal progressive from Florida is the senator who should be blamed. Also the Florida GOP should be blamed for not speaking out against amnesty bills like this.

RE McCain:

He never misses an opportunity to stick it to his own people. He’d make a fine democrat.

"Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

and new Democrat socialists. Why do so many Republicans crave to turn over the country to a permanent Socialist Democrat one party government? Do they think they will have the honored position of being the Official Opposition? When the Total Democrat state is reality then the remaining Republicans become Official Scapegoats and the show trials begin. Do they think that by enthusiastically promoting the Total State they will avoid the nine gram solution? It won't even buy them a whole lot of extra time.

Either McCain suffers from Stockholm Syndrome, wherein he tends to side with the enemy, or somebody is holding key blackmail material.

Never has anyone rushed to save the enemy, more habitually than McCain.

McCain is much more effective for the Democrats as a fifth columnist within the GOP.

That’s interesting, but let’s turn this thread into one about Rand Paul supporting amnesty for illegals! Let’s turn every thread that even remotely touches on Rand Paul into one about the immigration bill. Arming Islamists in Syria? Amnesty! Bullying private companies? Amnesty! Targeting Americans with drones? Amnesty! Bengazi? Amnesty!

It’s almost like some of it is about protecting John McCain and Little Lindsey. It sure seems like whenever Paul is at odds with the Establishment, the usual suspects show up to talk (more than a little dishonestly) about amnesty.

It’s long past time for McCain to retire to the Shady Rest Home for Self-Important Has-beens.

Get off the stage, McCain. You’re not helping.
