Thanks, turned on the tv (first time in days...weeks...? don't remember)

[supermario21]

they're discussing military waste in afghanistan

[ClydeCoulter]

Rand's spitting out a bunch about waste...oops no money to protect ambassador in Benghazi, but money for "make chi not war" :D

[jct74]

talking about roll up beef jerky and DHS snow cone machines

[supermario21]

now talking egypt. says that law must mean we cut off foreign aid to egypt because of military junta. rand says it shows that president thinks he's above the law and that it also shows we shouldn't be sending money over there anyway

[ClydeCoulter]

Where's the impeachment process...!!!!!!!

and recall of senators and reps, or can they be impeached also?

[supermario21]

Greta seemed to agree with everything Rand said, also no Jack Hunter nonsense. Credit to Fox, but I haven't heard that story at all.

The fact that Fox has not covered this story at all is an extremely good sign. We really want the people over there to be on our side come election time - that they're refusing to report on a story that's making the rounds in left-leaning media makes me very hopeful. You can bet your ass that if this was a Ron Paul "scandal" they'd be covering it to the hilt.

They've also given Judge Nap a ton of airtime lately, especially today. Clearly his defense of Jack Hunter was no issue to Fox as it was to some neocons on twitter.

I suspect that what the people at Fox care more about than anything else is winning - when neoconservatism was at its nadir and Republicans held the House, Senate, and Presidency, Fox bigwigs were all over foreign adventurism. Now that neoconservative candidates have lost two presidential elections in a row, they're becoming a bit more open to our way of thinking. Don't misunderstand - they're still way more hawkish than Rand Paul, but they're willing to give him a shot. It's our job to ensure that he makes the most of it.

[ClydeCoulter]

The story, if released later, might be "news" to the fox viewer, at a more opportune time...maybe...it's still in the drawer.

[FriedChicken]

Since Rand is a huge celebrity at fox he might just have requirements about what can and cannot be brought up. Remember Ron making it a requirement for interviews that they couldn't ask him if he was running third party? (and Sean Hannity boo-hoo'd about it like it was outrageous and his audience probably even believed that he doesn't make deals like that for every guest he has on the air).

I wonder if his strategy is to completely ignore it? Act like its not even worth responding to (like Obama does on stuff)? Don't see that working out well since Rand doesn't have the media in his pocket.
Or maybe Rand knows theres a big distraction just down the road ...

Hillary Clinton claims Republicans didn’t give her the money she needed to adequately protect our consulate in Benghazi. How, then, did she afford $630,000 on Facebook ads for the state department between 2011 an 2013? So asketh Rand Paul…

“She’s like, ‘oh, the Republicans wouldn’t give me any money!’”

The State Department spent more than $630,000 on advertising campaigns to boost the number of Facebook “likes” for the agency’s pages on the website, according to a report released by the agency’s inspector general.

Between 2011 and March 2013, the agency’s Bureau of International Information Programs used the funds on advertising to increase the number of fans for each of its four Facebook pages from 100,000 to more than 2 million, according to the May report.

I like Greta. I have been watching her since she covered the OJ Simpson case in the early '90s. I think she should be more popular than she seems to be. She is smart and laid back. I really do think she helps us more than hurts us and she is one of the few that are like that.

The Government is not concerned about how the tax payer may feel about how they spend our money. The public is not really fighting them eirher. It is all quite interesting don't you think?
