Quote: “Well, here we go again. The Left basically lies while the video shows his point is unintended consequences, not “blaming the U.S. for WWII”. Unfortunately, many on the Right will take the Leftist bate. Yes, I think Rand’s worst feature is his foreign policy, but the Left hates him and the Right taking on their lies doesn’t help.”
The LEFT!?!? No way, this sounds more like a GOP-e smear that is being brought to you by the “Jeb Bush, the only “electable” candidate for President in 2016” machine.
What I find hysterical is how many on this forum fall for this time and time again and end up eating our own. A headline that completely either mischaracterizes what was said or takes it out of context. The next thing you know you get the “Rand Paul is a fool” or “I no longer support this ignorant traitor” crap. Some of it, probably, posted by Karl Rove whiteboard fans planted on FR.
I for one take anything said about a conservative leaning candidate with a degree of skepticism.
I wish we all were more careful to do that.
I have to hand it to them for playing on and feeding negative preconceived perceptions to take out their Republican competition.
It's too bad the GOPe is a lesser form of the standard full strength progressives, otherwise I could respect their tricks, but it is what it is.
And as it is, we're being treated to the same stuff they did in 2010 to give us Romney, who campaigned hard against Republicans and not at all against obama.
In other words, here we go again: same tactics, same responses, same result. Rove strikes again.
