SA@TAC - Rand Paul Revolution

When Rand Paul won the Kentucky Republican Primary for US Senate in a landslide, he was immediately attacked by both the Left and Right--and for the same reason.

Jack please back off the mic a few inches.

David Frum is CFR trash, of course he's all about neocon big government globalization.

Anyone that would want to deport anti-war protesters knows nothing about America's founding values.

Rand Paul for president in 2012!!

I am a leftist, and I have no problem with Rand Paul. His old style paleoconservatism is at least honest. If he is anything like the late Barry Goldwater, liberals ought to at least consider him an ally where it really counts on foreign policy with his insistence of the US out of the Middle East. On social issues, he could be possibly a supporter of gay & lesbian equality. Wishy washy corporate centrists in the Democratic Party and neoconservative hawks in the GOP are both equally destructive.

Wow, I love that people are getting it! We love America and just don't want to spend or fight it to death. We want to stop giving special interest to big corps. Ron and Rand have both seen this.. Sounds like Dad did a good job!! Ron Paul 2012!

@mongoose704 hahahahahaha.. at least.. I hope you're joking.. xD

Otherwise, you might want to take a look at the American Revolution again ^^

My criticism of Rand Paul is he seems to have climbed into bed with the neocon faction of the teaparty movement. He is now saying that the US should do everything to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons (a far cry from his professed noninterventionism.) He stuck up for BP. Criticizing BP and holding them responsible is completely consistent with his strict Constitutionalism. Government is supposed to protect private property and BP clearly destroyed such.

Nothing is more anti-freedom and anti-liberty than war.

@kingofmilwaukee Exactly. He is a Wilsonian Trotskyist. He is as anti-american as they come. He is a betrayer of this nation and its Constitution. He would love Nazism. He is grossly ignorant of political terminology. He calls Ron and Rand Paul far right on economics. Both are economic minarchists, damn near anarchists and anarchism is far left wing according the classical definition of right and left wings of the political spectrum. Of course he learned eveything from Rush and Hannity.

MrConservativeTalk Well, your juxtaposing the two notions was rather awkward. As far as the issue of our present wars, well, that is a Constitutional question, not a Liberal democratic one: Dr. Paul's argument against such foreign entanglement is informed by the Constitution, and not some liberal democratic world ideal. One argument is actually Conservative; the other internationalist and socialistic. Moreover, many democrats did vote for going to war; libertarians would more than likely oppose
