He just became the face of a shutdown. The dumb arse Republicans managed to hang the last one on the Democrats. This one will go down as a Republican and therefore Trump shutdown.

Most of you retards don’t really understand politics much less economics. Once you gain an entitlement you never give it up. Over 40% of our populace doesn’t pay income tax. They are dependent on the state to certain extent. You want to stay the hell away from defunding the military and veterans. This little pissing match every few months is going to blowup in the Republicans face. That face is Rand Paul’s now.

Congrats you self-righteous free market narcissistic arseholes!

ETA
Rand’s little puzzy followers are too stupid to comment. A down vote w/o a comment means you are an idiot.

Major idiot shiteshow down voting!

ETA

CNN has an article exonerating Rand. I apologize...
CNN says Rand was right

95% of the government is still up and running during a "shutdown." The government doesn't actually shut down during these little charades.

And I'm all for Rand Paul holding people accountable. We need less spending. When I say less, I mean like we need to spend A LOT less than what we are right now. People like McConnell were elected because they were thought to be fiscally responsible, turns out, they're not.

Also, the Democrats shut the government down because they wanted to see illegal aliens granted amnesty or citizenship. Rand did this because he's tired of the bullshite with the spending. As are 99% of all tax paying Americans. We allow these assholes to take a certain percentage of all our money and we want to see that which was taken spent wisely, it's not being spent wisely now, so I'm glad that we at least have somebody on the hill that is willing to say "No, get this shite in order."

You forgot to add that Pelosi owns it too. She said, "No deal!" ...unless they guarantee a DACA vote.

They can pass a partial bill to pay the military, then focus on the rest of the budget. We have to cut spending. We can't continue accumulating debt.
$20 trillion at 3% interest = $600 billion paid per year in interest payments. That would fund the military for about a year. We pay this every year.
The sad news is that we have a lot of debt with low interest rates AND HAVE NOT LOCKED IN THOSE RATES.
As interest rates rise, the US will be screwed.
The interest on our debt is about the amount of our annual deficit. If we pay off our debt, then we'd be able to balance the budget. We could have a surplus some years which could be used to pay for natural disasters.

You are on the wrong board. This is the "Trump is always winning" forum. You are looking for a politics discussion forum. Honest mistake.

The military worship isn’t exactly making America great again. Cut that shite. We could cut 30% of the military budget and be just frickin fine.

I use the lol emote a lot but rarely actually laugh. My wife just gave me an odd look, because I was actually laughing at OP.

Rand is a man trying to push a boulder up the hill while dodging other boulders. Sometimes they collide and he gets momentum but it’s usually backwards rather than forwards.

God speed Rand Pusher of Boulders

Remove all able-bodied people off of welfare if they have been on for an extended period of time. If they want a roof over their heads, go to a shelter. If you want something warm in your stomach, suck a dick and swallow.

A downvote with a comment bashing the ridiculousness of this thread signals high intelligence.
