It's sad that he has to say something like that. Just goes to show there are low information voters of all ideologies.

[CaptUSA]

Hannity trying to stir shit up. Nothing else.

[Grenadine]

I can't stand Hannity's load mouth. He's such a phoney chickensh*t.

The fact that 45% of Republicans agree with McCain foreign policy is such a face palm.

The fact that 45% of Republicans agree with McCain foreign policy is such a face palm.I hope Katie Pavlich comes through with her threat to primary him in 2016.

The way Hannity ended the interview tell you all you need to know about neocons. He agreed with the part where interventionism is good and disagreed with the part where interventionism turns out bad for the US. These people will never give an inch or compromise to anyone. Its always war and money for the MIC all the time. You cannot reason with these people.

But on the other hand, I am glad it hasn't reached the point in the campaign where Rand is ashamed to say he isn't a neocon.

I wanted to see how Rand responded to the end part....

Which shows how important it is (and smart) for Rand to constantly engage, especially with Hannity and his audience.

Agree. Hannity 100% represents the neoconservative foreign policy wing of the GOP (and the Democrats too for that matter). When it comes to policing the world and war, fiscal conservatism and constitutional concerns are disregarded. It's the same whether it comes from Lindsey Graham or Hillary Clinton.

[Carlybee]

He is never going to convince Hannity we need less intervention. Hannity probably has a monetary interest in War,Inc. I bet a bunch of them do.or if not, his employers do.

[satchelmcqueen]

hannity throwing stones about dad right in front of son!

i still say that rand owes hannity an ass kicking for all the lies and shit he said about ron. i just dont see how rand can keep quiet. fuck you hannity.

I haven't joined cable either. Sticking with Netflix for now.

[philipped]

Might have to share this link to those who gathered around the "Rand sold out post-Romney nomination" concept.

Didn't Rand used to call himself a "non-interventionist" though? Now he is saying he is not.

No, he's never called himself that.

[Warlord]

Hannity will never accept being wrong on Iraq

Rand Paul: “I haven’t joined the neocon cabal".

Wouldn't Mitch McConnell be considered part of the neocon cabal?

[T.hill]

He isn't referring to non-intervention anyway. He's referring to isolationism which some use as a pejorative to discredit non-interventionism.

Wouldn't Mitch McConnell be considered part of the neocon cabal?

Yes, but Rand doesn't vote the same way as Mitch on foreign policy issues.

[RonPaulGeorge&Ringo]

Maybe I'm missing something, but McConnell doesn't seem like a hardocre noeocon cheerleader as much as he is a political opportunist. He voted against the Syria war resolution at one point, for example.

Hannity trying to stir shit up. Nothing else.

And once again proving he's wrong by disagreeing with the 2nd point. "They hate us for our freedom's" line must still be strong with the force among Hannity's listener's.
