Rand Paul calls Ted Cruz's tactics "not necessarily fair".
(Excerpt) Read more at mofopolitics.com ...
He's just going to line his pockets like his Daddy.
Okay, so is this Rand Paul sizing up his competition and deciding to throw a stink bomb into the works?
Rand “Surrender Monkey” Paul lets his true colors be shown!
Jealous. It’s fine for him to pull his little filibuster about something no one remembers, but this is a BIG moment for the U.S.A. and Rand Paul was no where to be seen. We won’t forget.
Paul was on the Senate floor with Cruz.
So, he stays for Cruz’s filibuster, and then votes for cloture? If I were his constituent I’d be mighty pissed off.
I am not surprised.
He is a fraud just like his dad.
Don’t forget that Cruz voted for this too. 100 aye votes...
The big vote comes Saturday as I understand it.
We’ll see how it breaks out then.
I don’t care for his comment about ‘unfair’ at all. Good grief!
Not necessarily fair. Oh REALLY? Okay pal, I got your number now.
Typical libertarian, stand for nothing of substance, fall for anything.
Paul just fell down several pegs in my opinion. So be it. I won’t forget.
to HELL with this guy, then!
Why? Was he using a straw with spit peas?
Paul is voting to fund obamacare, right?.
No, No. I’m not talking about today’s vote to proceed. I’m talking about cloture to end debate on Fri or Sat. I guess I’m reading this to mean Paul plans to vote FOR cloture (hence, as Cruz reiterated, a vote FOR OdingoCare).
It’s like this, GOP.
For any job or question or anything else in the future, if your name isn’t Ted Cruz, you need not apply.
Disappointing but no surprise at all. Rand is trying to position himself for the ‘16 run. Unfortunately, , he’s had a setback from THE potential challenger, Senator Ted Cruz.
No the vote was to bring the house bill to the floor for debate.
I am glad the senate is going to hash it out......will identify those who support the continued destruction of America.
fund the government not obamacare
Rand said that it will be contraproductive to shut down the government and try to blame Obama. Says that Obama would win on the issue.
Says soldiers wouldnt get paid in a shutdown.
Says calling those who wont filibuster the House defund bill who always voted against Obama-care appeasers is ‘unfair’
One by one they betray Ted, Looks like the summary executions will require lots more bullets (figuratively of course)
This tells me that Rand’s definitely running,
Good grief...
Rand should know better. What the hell?
Why do they insist on being their own worst enemy? Ya gotta give it to the RAT’s - you would never hear or see this kind of thing (or Insane’s earlier speech) from them on an issue this big.
Agreed...
Time to take names and defeat these bastards.
Then again, with people like Rand Paul saying he’ll vote for cloture (something someone else mentioned), I’ve lost faith in being able to send in good people and expect them to “get it”.
WTF.
We’ve got a fraction of a rump of a party willing to defend Freedom.
The whole rest of the establishment loves chaining us to their wheel.
I think revolution is in order.
“Fair”?
How is forcing people into contracts against their will “Fair?”
If you can’t fight totalitarianism with every fiber of your being,
GET ON THE CATTLE CAR, SENATOR PAUL.
The 100-0 vote was a vote to continue debate. A big nothing vote. Yes, Rand is jealous of TEd, I believe. Bob
The enemy is the DEMOCRAT PARTY. All these side skirmishes spell defeat at a time that is terrifyingly crucial for the country!
Once a ‘Paul’ always a ‘Paul’. Just another chip off the old block.
Agreed...
Paul is a mealy-mouthed twit.
bkmk
Surprised to hear that, as I saw Paul’s speech during Cruz’s “filibuster” this morning, and he really eviscerated obamacare.
One more to take off the list! It’s getting easier and easier to narrow down our 2016 list, isn’t it?

Well then why don’t you get on your GOPe hotline to the minority leader and tell him to stop standing with harry to fund kenyancare.
Rand is pretty cool, but he’s not the White Knight we’re looking for. He does his own thing - sometimes that parallels my views and sometimes it really diverges.
I like his free-thinking - I hate his unpredictability.
Amnesty Man Junior
That makes Rand Paul even more of a hypocrite.
Rand is busy trying to be on both sides of every big issue.
I guess Rand is out for 2016 run. I’m glad he is showing his true color now. Yellow!
Runt Paul is a LIBERALtarian and if he was honest about his views on the issues, couldn’t get elected to a local school board, much less Congress.
Ted is the last man standing and, fortunately, he's the best man we have.
Cruz 2016.
Nor will I.
Rand Paul in his own words:
"And I think what a tragedy it would it would have been if he [Obama] had gone to prison. What a tragedy it would have been that America wouldn't have gotten to see Barack Obama as a leader."
Paul makes this assertion at the 4:50 mark of this damning video where he characterizes the _resident as a leader.
WHAT!?
How can we trust Rand Paul?
He does too many weird things.
First Thomas Sowell, now Rand Paul. They are all outing themselves.
they hid it all these years.
Stalin knew how to deal with traitors and cowards.
This doesnt make sense. Paul was on the floor with Cruz?!?
Odd to say the least. For the record Im not a Paul fan but thanked him here for helping Cruz. But now this???
We will see as time goes by I guess.
As of Today, September 25th, 2013 Senator Ted Cruz from Texas offically because the Senate Republican Leader by his words and Deeds.
McConnell is a washed up foggy bottom swill sucker who has no spine to fight for the American People.
Cornyn is a middle of the Road finger sucking political wind seeker.
John McCain is completely Unstable and Insane. Drunk on his own power, spending the majority of his time washing Obama’s feet.
I urge EVERYONE to address Ted Cruz as the Leader of the Republican Party cause the others that have the title are too busy selling you out to look up to see the Cat. 5 Hurricane called ObamaCare about to hit land.
Take a jog over to McCain and McConnell’s facebook pages, along with Harry Reids. Then look at the comments on Ted Cruz’s.
We need to start a list of things Runt Paul is willing to sell out on...
Owebamacare
Queer marriage
Amnesty for illegals
Prostitution
Well, pretty much everything in the Liberaltarian party platform.
