The Daily Caller ^ | 1/14/16 | Alex Pfeifer

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul gave a literal middle finger to the media Thursday during a radio interview.

This comes after Paul's low poll numbers led to his exclusion from Thursday night's main debate stage, which he views as an unfair decision by Fox Business. Paul is skipping the undercard debate and instead hosting a national online town hall.

Flipping off the media will definitely raise your poll numbers.

He should have stepped down long ago and concentrated on his Senate seat.

Now he;s having a hissy fit.

Is there no chance we could get a conservative in that seat instead of him?

I like Paul. He is very right on this establishment managed political assassination and it has fired up his base and countless new supporter that will not be dictated to by Karl Rove and Roger Aisles. GO PAUL!!

RP was never presidential material. He’s almost as thin skinned as Zerobama.

Fitting photo for the ever whiny Rand.

So sick of the punks in our government.

“I like Paul”

Admitting you have a problem is the first step on the road to recovery. Congratulations!

I don’t blame him. I wouldn’t do it either.

I have seen worse from different government officals...Ted Kennedy was one very famous one...KKK Bird was another one that was a ‘hot head’....

I think Paul would have better to serve as Senator than President, he is liked there and can work with people...and to my knowledge hasn’t called anybody a ‘liar’ on the Senate floor....

Not to defend *the media* here... but the decision is Fox News, not *the media*.

Giving the bird to McConnell instead of hugs would help though!

One of the few ways one could possibly one-up the crudities of Trump.

Yeah. Paul is a Mr. Grumpy Pants, but Fox did shaft him.

The field is small enough for them all to fit on one stage.
