Telegram: Youre going to join U.S. Sen. Susan Collins for a state party fundraiser today. Shes defended National Security Agency spying programs you oppose, and shes also running against a Democrat, Shenna Bellows, who comes pretty close to sharing your views on that and other privacy issues. Do you support her, despite disagreement on many of those issues? Rand Paul: I wholeheartedly endorse Senator Collins for re-election. I think shes doing a great job for Maine and for the country. ... I dont really know, exactly, what her position is on the NSA; youd have to ask her about that. I just know my position, but I think were a big political party. Theres room for not-entire agreement on every issue.

The Soviets used to call people nuts that disagreed with their intentions too. then imprisoned them. Even when there was picture proof.
Just sayin’...
He has Tokyo Rove as a campaign advisor. If you are going to attack the GOP base, you will LOSE. See Dole, McAmnesty, and Mittens for results.
Some of us have taken the abuse from the lib supporting wing of FR for a couple solid years now for refusing to let them stemroll their RINO crap over us all. It would be nice if people helped us tell them all to go pound sand no matter how many liberal wannabees scream bad names.
People either believe in principle or they are ethically flexible. Ethical flexibility is not compatable with conservatism.
No way around it unless one lies.
No way around it unless one lies.
Whaaa...? Ethically flexible people will lie on Free Republic?
Imagine that! ;) Some even get paid to push lib/Rino candidates too!
He’s a mental case and needs to be in institution!!!
No,you can't vote there.But events there affect everyone in the nation.In fact events in California...Texas...Hawaii...every part of the country affect you.Imagine a "RINO" Republican (one who votes correctly 50% of the time) replacing Babs Boxer in California,for example.Imagine Texas's Electoral Votes going to the former Twelfth Lady in December 2016 instead of the Republican.
Does that cure your eyestrain?
The point is you can’t do anything if you in the tyranny that is Washington ‘democracy’ if you don’t have a majority on anything.
Support the liberal republicans to get them elected, then Push and prod them into doing smart things. That is really all we can ever do!
Where we don’t need to compromise is where we can elect Conservative republicans like in South Carolina.
Never-forget Politics is the art of the possible not the desirable. We must be pragmatic or we will be hopeless. There are a number of things we NEED to do in Washington before we can move forward with other plans.
They are minor and perhaps even disagreeable things that need to be done to some here. But that will change in time when theses people see how a socialist state abuses theses tools must now be downsized and abandoned. What I speak of course is the military both the Real one, and the so called ‘civilian’ army Obama has created among federal agency’s like the BLM to control and harass us into servitude. Which are of course just as dangerous a threat to liberty as any ‘traditional army’ of which they are practically indistinguishable except in that their goal is explicitly that of coerced subornation of an unwilling population.
Unless the real Federal army is downsized and distributed in a way that our States may be able to sease and uses its assets(Such as in the National Guard) then there is very little we can do to address and check this growing threat aside from hoping that elections will be both favorable liberty and legitimate which of course is a notion not supported by the history of socialized ‘democracy’.
We may all hope for the best in theses increasingly fraudulent election but we need a victory just long enough to weaken Washington’s real military foundation and allow a counterbalance to be build for uses when the situation gets really bad. If Economic freedom is to survive and be reborn in this country without compete collapse, there MUST be pockets of economic liberty from which to compete.
We can do that in Certain States, provide those states are able to defend their polices from Washington.
You should get out more and READ
and learn how Rand Paul is for ObamaCARE
and the Romney AGenda of statism.
Bye, bye Rand Paul.
What you wrote in Post 59 sounds sensible and reasonable. But...
We conservatives have been sensible and reasonable for many elections and this is where we have arrived. This is where we now stand.
I’m sorry...Post 72...not 59.
He certainly is piling up the Statist credentials:
Early endorsement of Mitch
Kissing the ring of the Romney money changers
Pro-Amnesty
Collins endorsement
Blah...blah...blah.
Oh,I get it.You're another one of these "if Palin or Reagan isn't on the ballot in November I'm staying home" types.
Tragic.But keep you chin up...Osama Obama and his ilk are counting on you to keep up the good work.
