The Fair and Relevant Question: After 8 Years of Obama, Why Should GOP Nominate a One-Term Senator?

Erickson is a soft-headed mushy middler, and is not qualified to select any question but what he has for dinner.

I’m impressed he attended Hahvahd, and that he has the values he has. That’s quite an accomplishment.

By chance, did she fall out of the airplane?

I want a President who actually cares about my Country, from a standpoint of really understanding it, its founding, and its Constitution.

That, to me, is one of the fundamental traits of a true American president, and one which I've seen in Ted Cruz since the first time I saw him.

He's only reinforced my early perceptions of him, since then.

The times we're in demand such a person at the helm. Our nation is on a dangerous precipice, and needs a skilled, wise, and confident leader to steer us back from the brink.

> By chance, did she fall out of the airplane?

No. They said they weren’t able to save everyone. That she got trapped in the fuselage I think as it went under. I imagine the truth is she was probably drugged with a poison that is undetectable or leaves the body within a short time. There are quite a few. If they don’t use the right screen it won’t pickup the presence of the poison anyway.

< Erickson is a soft-headed mushy middler, and is not qualified to select any question but what he has for dinner. I'd say you are right but he probably wants the government to do that or everyone too except himself, of course. You know Ithink the physical appearance of liberals often tells me as much about them as their pimp blogging and it never fails to surprise me everytime I lookup their pics. I'm going to guess he probably does agree with Moochie that the government should regulate what we eat, or should I say what "everyone else" should eat because we know the rules never apply to them just the "little people":

Because They are not Muslim/Communist lovers? Jes’ sayin’.

Because when Cruz is elected I only hope he is as extreme and determined in pursuing his agenda as Obama was. He needs no “experience” on whoring statism to be our Chief Executive Oncologist.

Cruz is the Anti-Obama.

Rand Paul On Shutdown: "Even Though It Appeared I Was Participating In It, It Was A Dumb Idea"
I said throughout the whole battle that shutting down the government was a dumb idea. Even though it did appear as if I was participating in it, I said it was a dumb idea. And the reason I voted for it, though, is that it's a conundrum. Here's the conundrum. We have a $17 trillion debt and people at home tell me you can't give the president a blank check. We just can't keep raising the debt ceiling without conditions. So unconditionally raising the debt ceiling, nobody at home wants me to vote for that and I can't vote for that. But the conundrum is if I don't we do approach these deadlines. So there is an impasse. In 2011, though, we had this impasse and the president did negotiate. We got the sequester. If we were to extend the sequester from discretionary spending to all the entitlements we would actually fix our problem within a few years.

Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.

Rand Paul's immigration speech
...The Republican Party must embrace more legal immigration.

Unfortunately, like many of the major debates in Washington, immigration has become a stalemate-where both sides are imprisoned by their own rhetoric or attachment to sacred cows that prevent the possibility of a balanced solution.

Immigration Reform will not occur until Conservative Republicans, like myself, become part of the solution. I am here today to begin that conversation.

Let's start that conversation by acknowledging we aren't going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants.

If you wish to work, if you wish to live and work in America, then we will find a place for you...

This is where prudence, compassion and thrift all point us toward the same goal: bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society.

Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform
Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow... [and the buried lead] "Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers...
