I think Elizabeth Warren still has her own teeth though

she's not the Ted Cruz or the Rand Paul of anything. Besides being a fake Indian, she practiced law in MA without a license.

She shouldn't even be in the Senate.

Yeah, right? That’s like do you want to die quick and painful or slow and painful?

There’s something really funny about this article.

Beinhart lists Cruz’s “crusades”, against Obamacare, executive action on illegals, for debt ceiling fights and he fights gun control.

In every instance, Obamacare, exec action, fiscal sanity and gun control...Cruz is on the same side as the majority of Americans.

How about that, Peter?

The Rand Paul of the left?
Hardly. She is more like the Elizabeth Warren of the left. Cant get much further left unless your (last) name is Marx.

Warren is nothing like either Paul or Cruz. Both of those people still love this country.

No, she’s more like the Jeff Flake of the left because hardly anybody’s heard of her.

There was an episode of Bizzarre Foods whre Andrew Zimmern visits an American Indian tribe in northern Maine. In keeping with their traditions, beaver meat is their staple food. Since this area is not too far from metro Boston and if Fakeahontas has as much Native American DNA in her as she claims, does Dizzy Miss Lizzy Warren eat beaver? Not insinuatin’ nuttin’ just sayin’

She also puts the ‘’fun’’ in ‘’dysfunction’’. Although to be honest there isn't anything funny in this woman. She's a raving loon. That might just be a saving grace though. Where Obama was suave and ‘’cool’’, Warren comes off as a screeching hag. Like the kind of old lady who lives all alone in a tiny house with fifty cats. No one wants to hear that after two minutes.

I agree with you that Warren is a screeching hag and Obama comes across as being "cool" which gives me hope that the Low Information Voters won't vote for Warren.

I think the LIV's liked Obama and thought he would be a cool guy to have as POTUS and a fun guy, the type they would like have some beers with and hang out with.

No one in their right mind would want to hang out with Warren.

I think Warren is going to remind the older libs of the teacher they didn’t like. The kind who’d pull ‘’pop quizzes’’ and load them up with tons of homework. What I find interesting about “Fauxchahantas’’ is that when she was lying about being an American Indian she wore her hair short, kind of chopped and a bit ragged and parted down the middle. Like an old ‘’squaw’’.(elitists are so obvious when they try to be ‘’down with the people’’) Now that she’s been smoked out and is running for office she’s looking totally coiffured. What a phony.

It might be that Elizabeth Warren has a few less news stories about how crazy, out of touch, stupid, foolish, unrealistic,... she is?

Warren-Paul 2016 -- they are natural running mates, and balance the ticket geographically.
Rand Paul On Shutdown: "Even Though It Appeared I Was Participating In It, It Was A Dumb Idea"
I said throughout the whole battle that shutting down the government was a dumb idea. Even though it did appear as if I was participating in it, I said it was a dumb idea. And the reason I voted for it, though, is that it's a conundrum. Here's the conundrum. We have a $17 trillion debt and people at home tell me you can't give the president a blank check. We just can't keep raising the debt ceiling without conditions. So unconditionally raising the debt ceiling, nobody at home wants me to vote for that and I can't vote for that. But the conundrum is if I don't we do approach these deadlines. So there is an impasse. In 2011, though, we had this impasse and the president did negotiate. We got the sequester. If we were to extend the sequester from discretionary spending to all the entitlements we would actually fix our problem within a few years.

Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...

Rand Slams Congress for Funding Egypt's Generals: 'How Does Your Conscience Feel Now?'
Sen. Rand Paul is hammering his fellow senators for keeping billions in financial aid flowing to Egypt's military -- even as Cairo's security forces massacre anti-government activists. [by "anti-government activists" is meant church-burning Christian-murdering jihadists]
