The Neo-Cons are already pushing the Dauphin Bush and are starting going to go after Rand. For example, the so-called conservative at WaPo Jennifer Rubin, wrote a new hit piece on Rand:

Is it a hit piece because it quotes Rand? I don’t think he’d say that.

Well at least Rand Paul vigorously opposes dumping the Tomahawk missiles. A good move.

So why are Jewish leaders so anxious for the USA to get into war? If they think God is with them, they don’t need us. If God is not with them, we can’t help. AD 70 happened.

I have never trusted this guy. Palin Yes, Cruz so far so good but not Pauls boy. NO way!

[Terry L Smith]

Jeb Bush at the RJC???

I thought Republicans didn’t like ‘separatist’ groups, and only the Democrats were allowed to have separate-other-than-just-one-word-American-caucuses?

Any “possible contender” that shows there, ain’t got my interest at heart.

I worry Jeb has too much George W. and tax raising Daddy. I will never vote for another Bush.

[RIghtwardHo]

While I loathe the neocons (they have ruined a Nation), Paul is irrelevant.

Of course, the Cons are now pushing another puppet in Bush.

Rand Paul is the real deal. If he were to run on a position of eliminating foreign aid, he’d win in a landslide.

How about, no more wars where American blood, limbs and lives are squandered for no vital American interests. While maintaining the best trained, best equipped, and best paid military in our history.

Rand Paul is a hawk. He’s just not a rabid hawk. He’s an intelligent hawk. He’s a thrifty hawk. He supports a strong national defense, about this there is no doubt.

Rand Paul: “I believe that defending this country is the primary and most important Constitutional function of our federal government”

Rand Paul: “I believe that the primary Constitutional function of the federal government is national defense, bar none. I believe that when we must go to war, we must have a Congressional declaration of war as the Constitution mandates, and we fight to win. And we must fight only under U.S. command and not the UN.”

Never forget how the GOP-E operates...

Next for GOP leaders: Stopping Sarah Palin

[Pelham]

It appears that they will be going after Rand Paul with the same venom that they employed on Pat Buchanan when he was deemed insufficiently dedicated to world empire.

Other then John McCain I can’t think of any of the neocon gang who have put their own hides on the line. A lot them have always had soft professions. Few of these ‘hawks’ seem to have any connection to the military so casualties aren’t going to affect their own homes.

Maybe we should bring back the draft, that has a way of focusing the public mind on the cost of foreign adventurism.

[greene66]

I’m not particularly bothered (if at all) by Rand’s foreign policy as I am about him being too wobbly/libertarian on issues of amnesty, dope and fag-marriage.

Those last three issues are killers for me.

Here's what JimRob has to say on the subject of Rand Paul. I agree.

Sorry, pal. He’s a light in the loafers amnesty pusher and RINO loving surrender monkey.

If Jeb Bush or Christi Kream are the nominees, a lot of conservatives will stay home on election day. Instead of donating to the GOP, use that money for ammo and supplies for your bunker.

"...from former Florida governor Jeb Bush to New Jersey Governor Chris Christie"...

Think there are a couple of words missing.

Let's try this:"... from former Florida governor (and certain LOSER) Jeb Bush to New Jersey Governor (and probable LOSER) Chris Christie..."
