Anyone who thinks Rand Paul or his crazy pappy are conservatives needs to have his head examined. These people are enthralled by their insane political ideology and love it more than America. They are like mind-controlled cult members who spout the same gibberish regardless of the truth.

So this is now the 2nd or 3rd (?) person who has jumped on this anti-vet bandstand this week. Too bad they didn’t push this before the election, we would have won more seats.

Sometimes, a mind is a good thing to waste.

The comment is fair enough on it’s face.

Since the military acts on orders from the civilian leadership then it is not responsible for the development of the policies developed by politicians, it merely implements those policies.

The politician is sworn to uphold, defend and protect the U.S. Constitution that is the statement of our liberties and the limits on the scope of government.

I’m not convinced that is what Ventura had in mind.

Jesse should STFU and go away with the millions he got from the widow of a real American hero.

One day Jesse is going to be found face-down, dead under a dusting of snow with .22LR sized holes in his skull. It will be ruled “the worst case of suicide” by the Sheriff.

I wholeheartedly agree, although I suspect that some of the concern trolls who invariably show up are the same few people who work for them.
