Anybody hear Rand Paul on Hannity today? Rand is going establishement......

Posted on 09/25/2013 5:32:56 PM PDT by teg_76

Today Rand Paul went on Hannity, and Hannity did a great job grilling him. He continually asked why the Republicans can't stand as strong as the Democrats, and Paul just kept saying that the Republicans are not united enough and don't have the leverage. He said he didn't agree with Cruz's strategy and that a government shutdown would be hurtful to the Republican party. It really could have been Mitch McConnell talking...who by the way Rand Paul has already endorsed. Hannity practically hung up on Rand Paul, and that really surprised me because you never hear Hannity treat Republicans that way. I was very proud of how he handled the interview with Rand. I'm really disappointed in how quickly Rand seems to be moving away from the people and into the establishment. Anybody else catch the interview?

Pretty sure a lot of us just don’t like being lied to by liars like Marco Rubio.

Rand lost me with the comment about what a tragedy it would have been had Obama not been our leader. I haven’t heard anyone except the liberals say such an obscene thing.

The entire hearing was disgusting. He was talking about blacks being disproportionately arrested for drugs and how unfair it was that so many of the blacks can not vote because they are felons. He was citing the ACLU. You would have thought you were listening to Jackson or Sharpton.

I don’t understand this guy.

If Rand plays ball for McConnell he will get some nice committee gigs that hook him up to the big money taps on Wall Street and K Street.

Indeed. A good example of why I’m so suspicious of Paul. His legislative record is quite solid. But he has a slew of quotes that send off massive warning-bells, to put it mildly.

I do not think his show has anything to do with it. Sean has always been a great American. He went after “O”saster and his affiliations. He fund raises for our troops and always tries to fight the good fight. Besides, the “No Spin Fraud” does not seem to be hurt by his left-leaning positions. Why would Sean? We need to start going after the electorate. We are in the mess, because of our non-thinking, give me something for free neighbors. Plain and simple.
We need to start debating, fearlessly why conservatism protects their liberty and gives them the best tools necessary to be successful, protected and self sufficient.

God Bless, America!

I turned off Hannity off soon as tamara whatshername compared
Republicans to john Wayne Gacy.

” - - - Cruz will have do what Rand is doing, if he is going to be a contender - - - “

What Rand is doing leads me to believe that Rand still believes in “Big Tents,”
Old-Style Republican Cave-Ins, and gut-wrenching concession speeches late on Election Night.

Reality: Dole (strike one), McCain (Strike two), Romney (STRIKE THREE!!!!!!!!!!).

West, Lee, Cruz, and maybe Palin are the contenders, the rest are pretenders.

Batter UP !

Sounds like Rand Paul got the Rubio treatment: a couple of the heavyweight old bulls put their arms around his shoulder and said "Hey look son, You have a great future in the party if you just play it smart...Who knows, down the road a few elections...with our support even the White House would not be out of reach...." and like Rubio, he bit on it and bought in.

Tamara Holder is the dumbest female I have ever heard speak.

Frankly, I am surprised she can even make sounds that can be understood by other life forms.

Hannity is a waste of time.

I do not need to know anything anyone on his show thinks about anything at all.

Mitch McConnell talking...who by the way Rand Paul has already endorsed...

Paul endorsed McConnell...so has Bill Bennett. Tells us all we need to know.

See my earlier comment.

Most people don’t like being lied to by ANYONE.

How unfortunate we are that the biggest liar of them all occupies the oval office.

A libertarian supporting amnesty I can understand but giving up on Obamacare is a major inconsistency.

Sordid perhaps but what part of politics isn’t?

I don't think you realize what you are saying. You are saying that it is OK for Paul to compromise, for political advantage, the very qualities that would make his candidacy worthwhile in the first place.

He is the prince of Lies, no doubt.

And the government, his r0yal court, is full to the brim of liars too.

Serial liars who lie with every breath of every word that oozes out of their filthy, corrupt mouths.

They are the worst people on earth.

I’m not giving up on Rand Paul yet. His filibuster on the drones was awesome. Lets don’t forget that. I’m not with him on immigration but I am with him on a lot of stuff. Nobody agrees 100% with another person.

He supported Ted Cruz yesterday and maybe they just have an honest difference of opionon on how to proceed. A lot of the GOP think we need to make the line in the sand over the debt ceiling instead of the CR.

Sausage making and politics. Neither are pleasant to watch.
