At present Rand Paul seems to be one of the only people saying what needs to be said.
As long as that is the case, he has my support.
What we need is to have more in the GOP saying the right things.
Where is everyone?
When one believes they must always agree or disagree based on what the other side thinks, hypocrisy can be the only result.
I like Ben Carson but disagree with his belief that the 2nd amendment should be restricted.
I like Marco Rubio on most things but vehemently disagree with his pro amnesty stance.
I like Rand Paul but disagree with him on several things but won’t disagree with him for the sake of opposition.
I like the whole Ted Cruz political package most of all but I’m a big boy and know there will be things which I disagree with him on.
My rule of thumb with politicians is that if I agree with one politician all the time on every issue, one of us is lying. Either the politician is lying to me or I’m lying to myself.
Then there is the McCain / Graham category. They’re talking tough about getting to the bottom of what happened in Benghazi but I haven’t forgotten that they were the primary cheerleaders for getting involved in Libya’s internal mess. They have both left a trail of history that displays that same behavior on any number of issues. I call them “Uriah Heep republicans” after the weaselly, manipulative, grovelling Dickens character.
Same question could be applied to the last presidential election? Why did conservative Patriots allow Obama 4 more years to dismantle this once great country?

Summed up perfectly! Thanks.
