TIME 100: Rand Paul (By Sarah Palin)
TIME ^ | Sarah Palin

Rand Paul U.S. Senator, 50 By Sarah Palin

When the Tea Party movement wanted to send a message to the Senate in 2010, it elected a clear-sighted eye doctor from the Bluegrass State. In a D.C. too often defined by the venal equivocations of a permanent political class more interested in consolidating its own power than in upholding the Constitution or defending the common good, Senator Rand Paul is a voice of reason awakening the public to what must be done to restore our prosperity and preserve the blessings of liberty for future generations. His brand of libertarian-leaning conservatism attracts young voters, and recently he inspired the nation with his Capraesque filibuster demanding basic answers about our use of drones. I sent him some caribou jerky from Alaska to help keep up his strength on the Senate floor. There’s more where that came from for this bold Senator with 20/20 vision willing to take a stand for liberty.

Palin is a former governor of Alaska

And while you can’t be bothered to care enough, some illegal raping an American child thanks you I’m sure. As will their parents.

What is the rape rate, illegals vs U.S. citizens? I don't like rapists of either sort, but if you think being an illegal alien makes you a rapist then you're a full-on retard.

” I’m guessing he’s against it because it’s a massive government database and like me i’m wary of those.

So if you want e-verify you want to give the government more power and money (yes it costs something to setup)”

The Social Security Admin already has this set up, and you are still a troll.

If the court strikes down DOMA then something has to be done.

I’m guessing - I really dont know his position - he wants to rewrite the tax laws and make them neutral.

Yeah, thirty million new welfare recipients/Democrat voters are pretty inconsequential, really. /s

They're here because they do the hard work that democrats are too lazy and stupid to do.

I don't see democrats lining up at the corner at dawn looking for work. See a lot of mexicans doing that tho'. I'd prefer that they were here legally, since someone's got to to the work, but there you are. It's not an important issue. When the government gets in the way, via over regulation, the free market will find a way around - usually via the black market in labor.

No, i’m not a troll I’m a small, limited government conservative.

I don’t like the idea of a government agency running a massive new background check sytem like the ATF do for guns. I’m against that as well.

The Feds shouldn’t police it at all in my view.

I really dont know why Rand’s against it but probably for the same reason.

I don’t mind states doing it... if AZ wants it fine... let them set it up, pay for it etc. just don’t ask to pay for it through taxes ake state sanctioned theft.

Guess you miss the regular stories posted here with American priests and teachers and cops and politicians and next door neighbors and scout masters and entertainers and truck drivers raping kids. The crime of rape is the crime of rape. It's completely uncorrelated to the crime if illegal residency.

I'm not a lover of amnesty at all. My plan would be to erect a fence on the border, stop people from coming in, and making those here illegally go to the back of the line. But it's just way down on the list of stuff Conservatives need to concentrate on. Guns, abortion, the deficit, stemming cuts to the military, overturning obamneycare, cutting off aid to muzzie countries...these thing matter. Bunch of mexicans mowing lawns...not so much.

I already posted to Jim directly on this thread about it being way down on my list of things I give a crap about. And your assertion that I love illegals is a lie. You are a liar. A lying liar.

No contradiction. It's just not important to me. If it makes you lose sleep then that's your problem. I don't lose any sleep over this, nor do I suffer anxiety over federal toilet bowl regulations, though I prefer the old style high flow models.

You're just going to have to live with the fact that I think it's a lower, almost insignificant priority compared to military spending, abortion, guns, overturning obamneycare, cutting off all aid to muzzie countries, stopping fag marriage, and cutting the size of the government.

And if you can't tell the difference between hardly giving a crap about something vs being FOR it, then, well, God bless you.

And bless you to. Hope you keep the family safe when your non issue hits close to home like it has for so many. And being in AZ I see the unimportant results daily so it’s not an abstract concept for me.

The back of the line starts in their home country. Any legislation that allows the lawbreakers to stay and work here, the object of their crime, is amnesty. A path to citizenship is a bonus. Giving them green cards entitles them to all the benefits of citizenship except voting. They can receive welfare and entitlement benefits, SSNs, driver's licenses, work permits etc.

Words have meanings. The Democrats and the mainstream media have hijacked the language surrounding the immigration issue to the point that we had Michael Chertoff, the Secretary of Homeland Security and our nation’s top immigration official at the time, testifying before Congress using the term “undocumented workers” to describe illegal aliens. John McCain and Barack Obama studiously avoided the term “amnesty” to describe their comprehensive immigration reform plans and despite the evidence, baldly declared that it was not an amnesty. Instead, they used such euphemisms as “getting to the back of the line,” “an earned path to citizenship,” and “coming out of the shadows.” The Democrats and pro-amnesty crowd know full well that the American people are against amnesty, hence the avoidance of the “A” word.
