Well, that is some what of a surprise. I always thought Paul was somewhat of an isolationist.

If we declare war or not is meaningless because (1) Obama isn’t going to do anything meaningful other than being a minor irritant to ISIS and (2) ISIS is coming after us regardless of what we do at this point.

ISIL belongs to Obama, McCain, Saudi Arabi and Turkey.
The Obamatollah will do absolutely NOTHING to inflict any real damage on ISIL. Money from Saudi Arabia & Obama’s Muslime Brotherhood built this demon army.

The US government needs to CLOSE our borders now, inspect every mosque and CEASE bringing anymore aliens in here. Send the “refugees” to Saudi Arabia.

If this isn’t done, our government and everyonr in it will have MORE blood on their hands.

John Kerry is an idiot. What does it mean to “stand with France” but DO NOTHING?
If I hear this again, I’m liable to vomit.

Rand Paul will be lucky to hang onto his Senate seat after his deal with McTurtle. Tea party folks don’t trust him anymore.
