    The most amazing part of this is Rand wearing a suit for 12 straight hours. Wearing a tie is very uncomfortable.

    Rep Massie (R-KY) says he saw Paul last nite. "He didn't drink any water and hardly ate any salad. He may have been prepping." #filibuster

    Yep. Me too. And I remain very firm in areas where I disagree with him. So...yeah. I guess I'm more inclined to accept that I disagree in some areas but am more willing to work with it after this day.

    Damn.. why couldn't he filibuster on a Friday?!? My bedtime folks.. God bless you all, and God bless Rand Paul.

    and may Durbin go to hell.

    I don't think McCain likes Rand very much.

    Btw, for those of you amazed at Rand's ability to stay standing and not run to the bathroom for this long, you should go work a polling location on election day! You'll be surprised what you're capable of when you're motivated and passionate about what you're doing.

    Noooo where did Rand just go?
    "The average person figures that the president tells the truth, the vice president tells the truth, the secretary of state tell the truth; and they don't. They don't. The founders understood that people would be flawed, that political leaders would not be the best of men … so they set forth the constitution. We don't follow the constitution in this country; had we done so in 2001 and 2002, the world would be a different place" - Karen Kwiatkowski

    "After 12 hrs, Rand Paul is still the guy who speaks the most articulately, calmly & clearly up there...and w/out notes. #StandwithRand"

    I've got to say. Rand and Cruz are probably the two best speakers.

  15. #1693
    Bin Laden was not a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil.

    Senator Paul gave a good response...but now, Senator Cruz is giving a great response and attributing back to the law.

    Rand slipped up against Durbin, but that's to be expected. This is going on 13 hours. I have no idea how he's still standing.

    Don't feel uneasy. They're just the posers they always were. Just keep your eyes on the prize.

    Wasn't OBL a CIA Asset?

    I need to send up my ENT just in case they start losing their voices. Nothing like good old steroid injections to take down vocal cord swelling

    Also, Rand, don't forget to keep hydrated. And dry clean that suit when you're finished.

    Yeah, but that will be the one thing played again and again.
    Best of luck in life.

    That's not fair to turn this into a debate now. Good on Cruz for taking over that question. A fully awake and rested Rand would have answered that question easily. OBL was not an American citizen, was not on US soil, etc. Apples and oranges.

    Yup, good on Cruz. I never knew about this Cruz or this Lee, will have to do research.
    Best of luck in life.

    How? By giving him more credit than he deserved?

    Rand spoke the truth, and spoke it well. I don't think Durbin's pedantic, obvious, totally irrelevant debate thrust deserved a 'touche', but Rand did refute it.

    Sheeple follow the leader, no matter the leader. Let them follow liberty for a change.
    I have seen through it all... the system is against us. ALL OF IT.
