Now now, they’re both well-spoken (well, McCain hasn’t been able to string a sentence together in a minute, but he used to) white men. They may have failed upward all by their lonesome.

“I think it’s very upsetting that they didn’t choose to go after him on particular issues, like civil asset forfeiture, where they might have been able to persuade someone,” he said at the time. “They chose to go after a man’s character.”

I wonder about this... As a woman, and one who wouldn’t be considered particularly feminine, I wonder how much of that is because a woman has to have traditionally masculine traits to succeed? Which really is just another manifestation of sexism, whereby feminine traits are seen as weak and undesirable.

So your saying that electing over 500 people who determine the rules of the nation based on their 1 track minded parties beliefs and resisting the other parties ideas out of spite and both refusing to ever work together as whole for A Nation made up of all kinds of people who think and feel differently isn’t the right…

I almost respect the scumbag republicans who fall completely in line with Trump and crew, than guys like Paul and McCain who talk a wonderful game and then fail to show up when it’s time to back any of that up.

Rand Paul is just a different flavor of John McCain.

Fuck, how about other countries? Thatcher and May in the UK, Dilma in Brazil, Le Pen in France if we’re including ones who (thankfully) weren’t elected...

I don’t think anybody should run for office. Anybody who wants in is a garbage person, and they are doing it for bad reasons.

I’m originally from Wisconsin and went to Madison too. Maybe it’s because I grew up in a rural area but I’ve always viewed Wisconsin as a mostly red state with Madison as it’s shining blue Mecca. Recently though Walker and his cronies have done a pretty remarkable job of chipping away at even that through media and by…

“Oh, don’t worry, as soon as he gets into office, he’ll do a total 180-degree aboutface and turn into a sane, presidential, respectful, intelligent adult!”

Its not like there are assets to seize in Kentucky.

It really is remarkable how determined Wisconsin’s GOP is to utterly ruin their state’s flagship university.

Seems just like his flip-flop on drone warfare. Whether Rand Paul takes a libertarian tack or a traditional Republican tack depends solely on what benefits him most.

He either knew what Sessions would do and voted to confirm him anyway, or because he made the is staggeringly stupid

Wisconsin politicians have really been fucking with the state colleges. I’m not surprised to hear this.

My state is getting rid of both qualified teachers and doctors. Yay Wisconsin!

You have just distilled what is essentially the entire Libertarian “movement” (movement is the wrong word for such an incredibly ineffective ideology).

lol, Rand Paul is all “it’s not my fault I voted for a guy who pursues policies I hate, it’s your fault for not convincing me to vote against him!” What a fucking whiner.

I first heard of Ayn Rand when I was in Junior High and people were like, “This is how its supposed to be!” The Young Republicans of the late 1980's and early 1990s were all Fountainhead this and Atlas Shrugged that. Nothing gave me the creeping horrors like an evangelical study group composed of female Young…

So what you’re saying is people have a problem with billionaires.
