i thought christie was a dumbassite?

[Christian Liberty]

Krauthammer: He (Rand Paul) is very attractive.

LOL!

[Legend1104]

I'm just glad we don't have Ron Paul around anymore to talk about any of that crazy end the fed stuff.

[GunnyFreedom]

Well heavens to betsy, the Kraut calling Rand a 'liberal' will mostly discredit the Kraut. Pretty much the entire grassroots conservative movement in NC considers Rand the most conservative Senator since Jesse Helms, even when they disagree with him.

But it's true!

Mancrush!!!

"has political genius" stands for "has good and reasonable ideas that lots of people agree with", but old neocon just can't admit it.

[William R]

Krauthammer is fundamentally a dishonest hack. He knows there's nothing isolationist about Rand Paul.

He also called Rand social liberal! Can you imagine?

Neo-cons playing their usual games. They are social liberals, trying to pull the wool over social conservatives eyes again.

To the neo-Trots, if you oppose their insane endless wars, and unless you want to intervene militarily in every instance (which they fancy is smart, reasonable, and somehow conservative), then you're an isolationist. There are only these two extremes, you see. There is no middle ground.

That POS AP over at HotAir calls Rand a "soft isolationist." @@ I posted there yesterday, and had a little fun poking the Trots.

Christie thinks freedom is dangerous. What more does one need to know?


As Allahpundit already noted, Christie has all kinds of reasons for wanting to keep this thing going and set himself apart from what many in New Jersey likely interpret Paul’s fringe-y national security views

Project much? Rand Paul is a realist (as are most Americans). Not a non-interventionist, not an isolationist, or even a “soft-isolationist” (as some despicable propagandists like to call it).

There is nothing more kooky, more nuts, more “fring-y,” or more dangerous than waging endless Islamic Theocracy-Building Wars.

But go ahead and keep pushing the Welfare-Warfare-Police State progs in the red jerseys, and enjoy losing the WH again, and again, and again…along with a complete obliteration of the liberties that made this country truly exceptional.

This one went to moderation for hours, until it was well-hidden by a few more pages of comments. Cool trick.

Al Qaeda’s not on the run. We are.

Boogey boogey boogey (http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/14537-civilization-in-fact-grows-more-maudlin-and-hysterical-especially-under)!!!!!

Is anyone but partisan hacks, and Warfare-Police State ideologues buying this theater? Not many that I’ve seen.

Even if it’s true, then maybe the federal government should stop arming (http://www.theblaze.com/blog/2013/05/22/rand-paul-my-colleagues-just-voted-to-arm-allies-of-al-qaeda/) and funding (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-07-31/us-military-has-awarded-contracts-al-qaeda-afghanistan) al Qaeda.

Anyway, nothing could happen that would ever even begin to justify the existence of their creepy global high tech panopticon.

The enemy’s within (http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/33210-a-nation-can-survive-its-fools-and-even-the-ambitious)!

Doesn't this guy (Charles, not Rand) support abortion and SSM?

I think that sounds like something I have heard before. Remember, when these people use words it's all marketing. He knows durn good and well that he's a flaming liberal compared to Rand Paul, but that won't stop him from CALLING Rand a 'liberal' because that's how you affect his votes and keep him from winning things. :p
