Good article. Paul stands alone for what's right.

From the article:

"Rubio was pushing to have the U.S. Senate pressure Obama into fast-tracking Georgia into NATO, making Tbilisi an ally the United States would be obligated by treaty to go to war to defend.

Who cooked up this scheme to involve Americans in future wars in the Caucasus that are none of our business?

The answer is unknown. What is known is the name of the senator who blocked it — Rand Paul, son of Ron Paul, who alone stepped in and objected, defeating Rubio’s effort to get a unanimous vote."

John Bolton.... Yet another

John Bolton.... Yet another reason why Newt would be a disaster for this country. Thank god this thing was blocked. But Pat is right, they will be back, these people are hellbent on starting war.

Pat always has his finger on the heartbeat of foreign affairs.
I highly recommend his book "A Republic, Not an Empire" Written in 1996, but more relevant today than the day it was written.

Rubio supported NDAA

Which puts him on my list of politicians to vote OUT of office at the earliest opportunity.

Senate:

Rubio has turned out

..to be another Tea-Party Disappointment.
Just like that fella up in Boston..Sheesh!
Wake up people! Thank God for Rand Paul.
...and Pat Buchanan.

Exactly! Both Rubio and Scott Brown = fake "Tea Partiers".

They managed to fool the sheep again! If you look here at part of Scott Brown's "Victory Speech" at 2:25, he thanks his backers and it is quite interesting to see who they are. Then look at the bills introduced by one of them shortly after that, that Scott Brown (doing "the people's business") co-sponsored.

Get 'em Pat!

I can not agree on your social conservative antics because those will never ever rule the day...but your take on this issue is SPOT ON.

We have f***ed around nations of the former Soviet and of course the rest of the world as well.

One definition of insanity is repeating the same mistakes over and over...and so the US Government could be deemed legally insane.

One day, we will learn our lesson. i gotta admit...I overestimated Rubio and West and all of these other "articulate" tea partiers.

Show me your intellectual credentials first...all of you...and then i might begin to listen.

Otherwise...you just come across as more neocons!

As a Gay man, I would be very shocked if Rubio agreed to be VP or to run for President in 2016. My gaydar goes beeping whenever I see that queen. He is a young Lindsey Grahm, only slightly cuter.

Isn't Grahm

Isn't Grahm "in the closet" though?? I always suspected, but have never seen in print that he outright admitted it. Your reply here at least helps confirm my long held suspicion.

Paul

What does your gaydar say about Obama?

Aren't he and Reggie Love doin it?
