That was sweet. Hope Rand goes far and gets more exposure. He has conviction and a spine.

“Well George... why dont you tell the audience that you were a democratic strategist working for Bill Clinton, and that thats where your questions come from?”

"And then runs away from David Gregory and Meet the Press."

Has Rand explained this yet? Are we sure he actually accepted this invitation and then cancelled as reported?

Excellent response. We need more like him. Paul won’t be invited back and they will continue to bring this up.

I’d wish he should asked the question, “Do you believe Disney should be force to hire transvestites to work in their parks or churches in their offices?”

He actually changed the subject instead of defending the rights of property owners

I LOVE Rand Paul. “Well uh, we are just asking questions that come up in the context of this campaign”
“Well, why don’t you bring me on with Richard Byrd, and talk about how he actually FILIBUSTERED THIS BILL vs something they insinuate I might believe in.... I don’t believe in repealing the ....Housing Act.”

I love it when public figures thrash unctuous moralist preacher wannabee reporters. Politicians are sooooooo image conscious that this rarely rarely happens. This one is especially delectable.

No, he actually RESPONDED to the fact that the media had already changed the subject themselves and inferred that he wanted to overturn the Civil Rights act of 1964, when all he had done was defend the rights of property owners against the overreaching parts of this act. He was reasonable and straightforward with Maddow, and had just had enough by the time he sat down with Stephanopolous. He is articulate when he is being instructive, and he is articulate when he is taking scalps. He was taking scalps yesterday morning.

Finally, a HERO, willing to call these people what they are because he is not indebted to a destructive political machine which he hopes will enrich him personally. Thank God for men like Dr. Paul..I hope people in this nation who feel the relief I feel when I watch this will send him money and support him in word and deed, and, hopefully, others with the principles and skill he obviously has will also rise up to stop the communism shaping up all around us. If we do not return to a system of individual freedom in this country, our people will be brought to mourning such as we have never seen and Dr. Paul has come to the forefront as a General in that army. Make no mistake..The MSM will stop at nothing to stop him..He is a great threat to them because they fear exposure.

Watching Fox just now and they were talking about how Alan Grayson’s bombastic speech is actually helping his fundraising. So how does Rand Paul speaking his mind hurt him? The press can’t have it both ways. Grayson is a bombastic, hateful, boarish man who scores money & votes with his hate speech. But Rand Paul will suffer from being honest and promoting private property rights?

I think the media is misreading the publics mood - we are TIRED of the lies and obfuscation of political double-speak. I think Rand Paul is in a good position to hammer this point home - not civil rights - but the point of dishonest politicians who give 1000 word speeches to say NOTHING.
