American Spectator: Rand, The Better Paul

look, Rand may be a better orator than his papa, I'll give him that for sure. But though I've warmed up to Rand a bit, he's too much of a panderer. Ron is a complete straight shooter, is unafraid of vocalizing his principles and beliefs, and that is one of a few reasons why ron > rand.

Yeah...I don't think so!

Rand voted for sanctions on Iran.

His father needs to give him a good "talkin' to".

Well I like both Ron and Rand... But this article is just trying to drum up more unnecessary Ron versus Rand negativity.

American Conservative: The Better Magazine

Here are my reasons why I disagree and why I support Ron 100%:

1. Ron says it like it is.
2. I trust Ron
s voting record and can pretty much feel secure where he will stand.
3. Ron doesn't cave.
4. His policies are much more aligned with my own (libertarian)

I cannot ascribe the same to Rand, sorry, he has caved a few times and he is too much of a "politician" for my taste, however, he is better than 95% of the others. Rand is also NOT a libertarian. I like Rand's speaking style better when it comes to on stage.

Look, there is no question that Rand isn't as philosophically pure as Ron.

However, I like Rand's ability to "get things done". Ultimately, that is what a politician needs to do.

A lot of liberals claim that the reason Obama didn't end the wars, stop torture, reform healthcare, etc. is because he couldn't fight Congress; he could not fight the lobbyists or the bureacracy.

I think that is a very generous stance on him, but in any case, so what? If he couldn't fight it, then that is his fault. The ability to get things done is paramount.

Rand Paul- 1 term and out. That guy just wants to be a career politician and he sure talks like one. His father, may he live forever, doesn't equivocate.

On the other hand....perhaps in reality Ron Paul is in such an excellent position to win that it's smart to contrast him to Obama? I sure hope so.

What did I miss? I keep hearing and seeing Ron Paul's schedule as the reason for his not attending. I heard the doc himself tell Wolf Blitzer that it was a matter of resources, i.e. his supporters are busy working on his behalf, so many are young, they can't just pick up and run to the CPAC when they are busy campaigning.

Maybe that was just a new spin on things?

OK, have it your way American Spectator. Four years of Ron followed by four years of Rand. Sure, why not.

Are they stupid? Or just fakes?

I've hated that rag for years.

As long as Rand delivers Ron's SAME EXACT message to their politically correct ears, it's all good to go.

That, is really the psychotic crux of these insecure neocons, ain't it? For all their yammering on about how liberals are pussies, these commie Trotskyite/neocons are truly THE biggest politically correct pansies there are.

Words, of course to do have power. But, these douchebags fret day in and night over HOW something is said to bother their insecure childhood-daddy-issued selves, rather than WHAT is being said to them: the classic style over substance.

Rand is practically talking about the same domestic as well as foreign policy, as that of Ron; the 'Movement' neoCons ALL must know that he's practically a Ron's clone, despite the R3VOL's on and off debate over whether he's 40% Ron Paul or 60% in Ron Paul-ness.

Yet, the same exact douchebags who have zero problem praising Rand on their own shows, whether he's being interviewed live or not, on the likes of Mark Levin or Sean Insanity's show, usually ridicule and malign the same man's father Ron, literally sometime two minutes before Rand comes on their shows!

They actually have the gall to call Rand their "friend" and kiss his ass once on their show, even after that!

Delusional chickensh*t Psychotics, all of them.

Frankly, not sure it's worth 'converting' them.

Besides, they have to believe deep down that Rand is doing more of "keep your friends close, enemies closer" when he actively seek them out to get on their shows.

So what gives?

It's like the proverbial ugly girl at a dance: these lunatic movement neocons can't help themselves that someone just thought them tolerable enough to talk to them, even if she maybe a one-ton-ho.

and scene.

thank you very much. but no F'ng thanks.

Surprised anyone reads that rag. American Spectator is literally the exact counterpart for the liberals' American Prospect Magazine, dutifully fulfilling the false L vs. R paradigm, and obviously still easily brainwashing some amongst the pliable population to believe that their opinions are worthy of anything, other than fulfilling one's daily bemusement quota.

Let's win Maine!
