Carville likens Rand Paul’s drone concerns to birthers, evolution and global warming deniers
Daily Caller ^ | 03/08/2013 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 03/08/2013 11:40:53 AM PST by Responsibility2nd

On MSNBC’s “The ED Show” on Thursday, former Clinton adviser James Carville explained why he was not on board with Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul’s protestations of the Obama administration’s drone policy.

According to Carville, Paul’s concerns that a drone could strike an American citizen on U.S. soil were similar to those who believe in birtherism and deny evolution and global warming.

“Let’s remember, this is a party that vast numbers — vast numbers believe that the president was not born in the United States,” Carville said. “Vast numbers think that the earth is 5,000 years old, that dinosaurs and people occupied the earth at the same time. Vast numbers deny climate change. I mean, they’ve got people like preppers and birthers and God knows whatnot over there.”

Carville looks just like one of those Louisiana swamp rats made hairless from climbing around in piles of garbage dumped on side of the road.

Same damn beady eyes and snarling teeth.

This is heartening for me.

Let the left continue to be as far out of touch with normal Americans as the GOP leadership.

This is the first salvo in the move to marginalize rand Paul and the Drone Strike question—They will coin a word for it as they have with Birthers, Global Warming deniers, etc... Something like Droneacks, or Dronechikenlittles, or Droneheads. To make it look like a silly fear mongering tool. I don’t think it will work—BUT it exposes how far the Vichy Republicans have cross over to work with the Liberal Progressive Nazi’s and their powerful media friends. Look to see them seek out any sex scandals or past problems to get all who spoke up with Rand Paul. They must Nip this in the Bud or face a firestorm that will—if it gets too big—sweep the Liberals and their back pocket Republicans from power.

So the drone threat is real - and would be devastating to Obama?

I thought Carville was on Obama’s side?

It’s absurd in Carville’s (and McCain’s) mind to be concerned about the threat because they have an inherent trust of government and those in power.

Contrast this view with that of the founders.

So basically Carville is a kook who makes a living making smart assed remarks about Republicans, with no answer, solutions or effort to hide the fact that he is a tool.

All Serpent Head has is Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals #5: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon."

The Left uses Rule #5 indiscriminately. It doesn't matter whether there is a shred of truth in the ridicule. The low-information voters don't think that deeply. All they know is that someone has been criticized in public, therefore they must be bad.

The left is working overtime to criminalize Creationism and skepticism of leftist icons and leftist sacred cows. Be careful what you think in today’s USA.

This is why reaching across the aisle doesn’t work. We have to attack. Look how Rand’s truth-telling has affected Zero.

Summarize the article by saying: “Carville believes a Democrat president should be able to kill Americans via a drone strike any time he feels like it.”

I have real question that I wish to
ask Obama.
If 1 million people converged on
the Capitol grounds to protest
his policies, would he send in Drones?

Once again the Clinton era gang trots out the “Nuts or Sluts” attack.

Some things just never change.

I don’t think he believes that.
I think he believes that there should be no concern that the president would use this power inappropriately, because of Carville’s inherent trust in government and in leftwing politicians to be benevolent.

Just say it. It’s not that they just want to criminalize Creationism.

They want to criminalize Christianity.

It’s basically already been done in Canada using the homosexuals as their vehicle.

Drag a hundred dollar bill through a trailer park and you’re bound to find an old senile Democrat who will say something negative about Rand Paul.
