re: WAIT: Rand was right according to CNN

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."
