Great list.

You do know that Boehner only allowed Bachmann, McClintock and one other GOP to vote no on a continuing resolution on Obamacare spending in the House the exact day Rand Paul was fake “filibustering” on drones and CIA chief Brennan in the Senate?

Yeah. It’s not like Rand didn’t know what was going on in the House that day.
So I take particular notice about this from your list:

The Paul’s are basically against Israel. His dad was, and the son is following his dad.

Only a lightweight would let his girlfriend, (now wife), change his name from Randy, as he’d been called all his life, because it didn’t ‘fit him.’

I did not know that little tidbit.

We live and learn. Like spell check just taught me that “tidbit” is one word, not two (tid bit) as I always thought it was.

Thanks.

After reading Trump's tweets, at first, RuPaul -- I mean, Rand Paul -- was quite perturbed,
then he began to ponder, and ponder, and ponder, and finally he came up with some more
trash talk to present at the next debate, and, as you can see, his countenance has brightened
perceptibly, and now he's pleased as punch with himself, and can't wait for the next debate!

Being a Governor makes you more qualified to be President than being a sucessful Entrepreneur and CEO of a mulit-billion dollar business? Well, to each his own, but I disagree.

She has so much influence over her husband, she even changed his name.

When they started dating, he was called Randy - and had been his whole life - until she changed it to Rand.

“I remember thinking, your name just does not fit you. You don’t seem like a Randy. And I started calling him Rand and he liked it,” she said.

Only a lightweight would have a name so gay that even his girlfriend had to fix it

Say what you will about Rand (a doctor), he’s not a “lightweight.”

Rand, Jindal, and all the rest continue to refer to Trump as an entertainer or celebrity. A little dishonest of you guys, don’t you think? What about telling the WHOLE truth? They always forget to include the “and he’s also a successful businessman and CEO” part. I’m sure it’s just an unintentional oversight on their part.

“So, really, I think it’s a serious versus the unserious. And there is a danger that if we continue to laud so much attention on basically someone whose level of discourse is that of junior high, I think there’s a problem, there’s a great risk for the country.”

Is he talking about himself?

Randy’s wife sounds as flakey as Randy. They make a great pair!

my dad served on the Iowa in korea. too bad it’s in la. i had bb-61 on my brain as a kid. juat knew my dad seved on the Iowa b-61. i had no idea what it meant. my uncle was a chaplain on the Boxer aircraft carrier. i have gotten the bb-61 confused with the Boxer all my life. when i was a kid we were invited to the Boxer while it and the Kitty Hawk were being outfitted in Philly. we got to dine with the officers on the Boxer. still remember walking the landing deck. I think it was made of wood.

Classic case of projection.

I don’t see Rand Paul getting much sympathy on FR

FR has a small contingent of Liberaltarians. They aren't as vocal as in the past.

Don't leave out Ted Cruz. He's also one of those morons...Maybe more so since he's supposed to be this brilliant all knowing everything about the constitution...Well except for the part about his right of veto...and the 14th amendment.
