A funny and accurate post!
The “core principle” of any politician is that which he judges most likely to get him re-elected.
National Review Online recently reported on something you didn’t hear from the lame-stream media. When Rand Paul staged his now famous 13-hour filibuster the polls showed “a 50-point shift in public opinion toward his position.”
Senator Mike Lee commented: “Once it became clear what the principle was that was being stood for, the public naturally followed.”
When Paul staged his first filibuster... we didn’t see it coming. We had no warning and we had no time to mount a campaign of support.
But now that we know what may be coming, we have no excuse not to make our voices heard and help make it happen.
