Rand Paul will win.
Like we need Eleanor “Axe Face” Clift to explain it to us....
If he’s an American citizen he has equal standing. His Indian background is of no matter.
He has that I am born to rule Brahmin look. He thinks we’re Sudra, but we showed him we are Ksatriya. We are on top, doctor, not you.
Do we really still need a Surgeon General? It’s a 200+ year old post originally designed to oversee the care of merchant seamen.
Let’s eliminate the position and privatize the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. We don’t need that much government any more.
I recall reading many hundreds of posts here in 2010 and mainly 2011 claiming the same thing about Palin 2012.
Don't count your chickens... as they did
but I think he's an interesting guy. He has learned how to carefully maneuver the past couple of years.
I remember when he was green and walked into Rachel Maddows trap.
Nonsense. The NRA starting fighting Murthy well before GOA and Paul started fundraising off the issue. I have my issues with the NRA, but it was their SCORING this vote, and that alone which has caused utter chaos among Democrats.
Dropkick Murthy!
Way to go, Rand.
Mine is getting her walking papers next week for exactly that reason.
Since when did The Messiah’s popularity rating climb back up to 41%?
I have thought for a long time that the Left has so demonized "Conservative" and "Conservatism" that "Traditionalist" would be an excellent substitute. "Tradition" is a comforting word, be you Left or Right. Countries, states, cities, towns, families all have traditions, and value them. Everyone would know what a "Traditionalist" stands for.
Notice the arms crossed, the smug look on the face. Arrogance and hey I know everything. So at 30 years of age this so called doctor is nominated for surgeon general. Come now he has only been out of medical school for what 2 - 5 years. He knows nothing. Just another political jack@$$ appointee with a agenda approved by an idiot for resident
“The NRA are a bunch of useless ass curls if you ask me.”
Naaah. They’ve actually improved and gotten more with the program in the last 10 years*. Given what the NRA is, a gun rights marketing organization, they could be and in the past have been worse. Given their sheer size when the NRA speaks, the politicos tend to listen.
And they do put out some nice magazines.
*I’m not a member.
Understood. I don’t care about his citizenship, though. He can take his British totalitarianism and stick it up his @ss.
He was absolutely in favor of the individual’s right to keep and bear guns. Buckley, like Ronald Reagan, Pat Buchanan, William Bennett, Jack Kemp, and George Will, also fell for the “assault weapons” ruse.
Open borders is a non-starter for me, too. Rand Paul has been wishy-washy on it, because his plan proposed trying to have it both ways: some sort of legal status for the illegals, and building a fence. Reality tells us that only one of those will happen, and he should know that. I think as President that he would lurch very much in favor of the fence, and not much else, but he hasn’t been a leader on the issue. I like him, but I think I like him right where he is.
