DNC Responds to Paul's WSJ Article

DNC Response to Rand Paul’s Troubling WSJ Op-Ed
This morning, Rand Paul ran an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal where he laid out his troubling foreign policy worldview.
Below please find a response from DNC National Press Secretary Michael Czin to Paul’s vision:
“It’s disappointing that Rand Paul, as a Senator and a potential presidential candidate, blames America for all the problems in the world, while offering reckless ideas that would only alienate us from the global community.
“Unfortunately, this is nothing new for Paul. Last week he criticized American policy to the president of another country on foreign soil. This week he’s blaming the Obama Administration for another nation’s civil war. That type of “blame America” rhetoric may win Paul accolades at a conference of isolationists but it does nothing to improve our standing in the world. In fact, Paul’s proposals would make America less safe and less secure.
“Simply put, if Rand Paul had a foreign policy slogan, it would be – The Rand Paul Doctrine: Blame America. Retreat from the World.”

So Paul did it last week as a candidate for president, he is criticized by the DNC.
When a sitting president does it, is it OK? Where was the DNC then?

Yeah, the open border policy is doing wonders for our security at the moment.

this is why paul doesn't have a shot in 2016, maybe 2020.
Washington is controlled by hawks.

Replace "Paul" with "Obama" and it could have been written by the head of the RNC in 2008.

Wow. Thats a play right out of the RNC playbook against Obama. IM SO CONFUSED RIGHT NOW.

The amazing thing is that this could have been a republican response to a democrat in 2004.
I have said it once and I will say it again. Anyone who voted for Lurch in 2004, but does not vote for Rand, is a huge hypocrite.

I don't think you can expect anything but a partisan opinion from a political party.
But it brings up a few questions:
WWRPD ???
What would Rand Paul Do - about Ukraine, Gaza, ISIS, etc ?
Is he more of a non-interventionist than Obama?
Is he afraid of the CIA? (serious question)

Idiots. They think they must attack him because he has an R by his name and they don't realize how dumb and hypocritical they sound now. They'll isolate a lot of their base with that hawkish tone.

this is pretty EXACTLY what republicans do with obama. Obama could ask for the republican platform item by item and he would still get ripped.
Hell he stole obamacare from the right. BOOM. Shitty idea.

That right there shows you there is no difference in the parties. Democrat vs Republic is a charade. I don't know who's telling the car where to go but it goes the same place no matter who is driving.

It was never a plank in the party platform, and it was never mentioned by Dole or Bush.
