It's right in line with Ron and Randy. This dude was Ron's Foreign policy adviser from 2001. English degree from Berkeley. Ron Paul has always been phony. The MONEY flowed from DC to his district and not for public use, but private company use. Ron was a huge spender and why union members in his district voted for him. Democrat activists in Houston could never figure out why they couldn't get in a traction with so many union members there.


Interesting. I've been wondering why Rand Paul turned out to be such a political animal. If your take is accurate, he's just a chip off the old block (without the folksy, down home persona).

There is no way that move is made and he just had no fricking clue who this twat was.


What move?

McAdams has been the head of the RPI for at least 10 years. This is nothing new. And Rand is not a board member.

Ron got a VA clinic built in the western edge of his district in a town without a single veteran and his campaign manager, who lived in Houston, got the management contract.

Fiscal fraud if there ever was one. Lew Rockwell designed this strategy for Ron. He had a bacon hose to his district, then vote no on the bills they were earmarked to.

Randall's lifelong nickname was Randy until dad ran for president. Suddenly, it became Rand.

Yes, "whether true or not" is equivocation. In light of the evidence provided, any equivocation is to be purposely blind.

The earmarked money is being spent anyway. You're acting as if that money is being saved if there were no earmark. It's already been budgeted, so it's going somewhere.

No need to put me on blast like that bro.

Haha they’re usually great people to hang out with (kids parties aside), I just don’t want them running our government because it’s really hard to talk policy with some guy wearing a sleeveless “wolves howling at the moon” shirt, short shorts with high tube socks while smoking a pipe or whatever.

Not to the extent that Ron did. And his annual office budget was out of line

You don't?

Do you group Rand and Massie into the Republucan party?

Do they run as Republicans?

Do you believe any Senator or Congressman in Kentucky is not connected to The Turtle?

If you're old enough to have posted 42,000 times on this website, then you have no excuse to be so ignorant.

People like you are exactly why we should bring back literacy and civics tests at polls. Then you could never vote again.
