Rand Paul practically endorses Mitt Romney... sigh

starts around minute 3....

http://youtu.be/oBhdv2s1jzY

why why why why???????

i mean on one hand this guy introduces actual amendments to reduce the size of government. that i truly respect but then he goes on that someone like Mitt Romney would be ideal to "turn the economy around" and "create jobs"

and to all the ones that will simply downvote this.... get a brain, you are no better than the mindless democrats or republicans if you will blindly follow this guy just because his last name is paul. i truly believe he is on our side (just look at all the bills he has introduced) but there is no reason to glorify him.

oh and if you guys remember.... finally got my site up and running..

Rand Paul is not Ron Paul

Rand Paul is entitled to his opinions, but no way will Dr. Paul endorse a candidate who is for the Patriot Act, the TSA, the 2012 NDAA and the new FAA regulations allowing drones to fly over our homes.

Romney's foreign policy advisors

Dov Zakheim - (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Robert Kagan - (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Michael Chertoff – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Eliot Cohen – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Eric Edelman – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

John Lehman – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Evan Feigenbaum – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Aaron Friedberg – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Kent Lucken – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

Kristen Silverberg – (Israeli Dual Citizen)

that list alone makes Mutt WRONGney a TRAITOR!

PERIOD.

Along with all the bozos on that list.

Frankly, NO public servant who takes the Constitutional Oath should EVER have dual citizenship.

Can't have two masters, though we all know that most Govt terrorists, do.

"Let it not be said that no one cared, that no one objected once it's realized that our liberties and wealth are in jeopardy." - Dr. Ronald Ernest Paul

Our Constitution forbids foreign titles in government

Citizenship would be a foreign title. Therefore, constitutionally none of these traitors can legally serve in the government without congressional approval.

Rand endorses Ron & capitalism

Rand simply endorsed capitalism & jobs.

At the end of the interview, he said that the GOP should be grateful to Ron for bringing in some many young and energetic people back to the party.

"Ron Paul Speaks"

Alert!

RonPaulExposed.net set off my virus alert!

When Fascism goes to sleep, it checks under the bed for Ron Paul!

This is a template..

... for the passive endorsement of Romney over Obama which Ron Paul will give at the GOP convention.

So very sad to see this happening when something much better could have happened had Ron Paul's campaign decided to supplement the delegate strategy with a coalition candidacy.

I am afraid you are right. Ron Paul will be like Rand

and give similar support as Romney co-opted him into a destructive friendship in order to destroy Paul. You can't fight the eneemy while being in bed with him and praising him at the same time, as the campaign has done.

How can you say that?

What about Dr. Paul's Congressional career would ever make you think he is a sell-out?

fiddle dee dee

yes, he has a good voting record.

but presidential elections and that team is a whole another ballgame. the stakes are higher and visibility is higher. more pressure from his buddy romney. remember, he did not have any vicious neocon fake friends just as a congressman.

jj

Much ado about nothing.

Rand was talking about Biden's comment concerning Romney and Bain Capital and that he would prefer someone that had a track record of managing businesses that were in failure than someone like Obama for President. He was not endorsing Romney for President but simply stating his policy preference between Obama and Romney.

agreed

Agreed, I think people are jumping to conclusions on this and have taken what Rand said out of context. Yes, it is disturbing to see Rand say anything positive about Romney, but I wouldn't consider it an endorsement. Even Ron has said Romney has "management skills", at least when compared to Santorum or Gingrich.

Rand was on Bill Bennett 5/24

Bennett was on vacation. Most of the interview dealt with the budget and taxes.

The host asked Rand to what did he attribute the increased interest/discussion of the Constitution over the last few years. He went on to cite the 2008 debates and rattled off the names McCain, Huckabee, Romney ..." Rand said "I think you left someone out..." Naturally, Rand gave his father much of the credit.

The host had to know exactly what he was doing! Who on earth would bring up the increased interest in the Constitution and not include Ron Paul among the list of candidates? Jerks.

Not exactly an endorsement

endorsement of Romney, merely a preference for someone who understands capitalism over a commie. Rand WILL be asked (about endorsement), eventually, however.

Leges sine moribus vanae

"Romney Woos Senator Paul"

Sources close to Senator Rand Paul tell National Review Online that Paul and Mitt Romney had a private meeting on Wednesday. Details of the topics discussed are hazy, but Paul — the son of Texas congressman (and presidential candidate) Ron Paul — reportedly found the meeting productive.

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/301001/romney-woos-sena...

National Review is a horrible propaganda outlet, but there could be some truth to the meeting.

It is disgusting for Rand to even meet with Romney

to work out backroom deals. It has been clear since last Dec that Rand is in Romney's corner and will help bring out the destruction of the US, imbuing with it the Paul family name.

Disgusting son.

Actions speak louder than words...

Rand was the only member of congress to draft legislation to ABOLISH the TSA... I love that.

Rand was the only member of congress to stall the Senate from passing the NDAA... I love that.

Bottom line: If you aren't smart enough to realize that Rand is the most cunning politician (even more so than his father) in modern time and is 100% committed to shrinking government (hence giving us our freedoms back) then I feel bad for you.

Rand is working his way up the totem pole in D.C. appealing to a broad base of voters and knows how to WIN very competitive elections... (He ran for Senator... Much harder to win that seat than running for congress btw.)

He's got his s**t together and I'm not one bit worried about him. He'll be president and he'll repeal A TON of executive orders and shrink the size the government like none other.

Rand only did all that bec he and his handlers knew it wouldn't

work and it would not pass. Rand does not call out any indiv members of his party, and even says Romney is 'precisely' what hte country needs, meaning more of the same. romney's track record indicates he would be exactly or worse than john mccain, and here you have rand on this occassion and others saying how great romney is.

you have to look at the bottom line, and only what matters is that rand support his establishment colleagues and they give him a bit of room to play around with things that won't pass.

Actions speak much louder

Actions speak much louder than words. Rand will say some things that appeal to the neo-cons like being tough on Iran, but I know where he stands. He stands with liberty. Excellent comment.

Rand Did Not Have To Mention Mitt.

He should have said "We need someone with life long experience in the private sector and who has run his own successful business. Someone who has worked hard to limit government control over our lives and businesses as well. That man is Ron Paul!" No more Romney plugs Rand,please?

Rand

Is probably under huge pressures, cut the guy some slack.

Would you guys rather have Trey or Jack in there?

It's difficult to compare anyone to Ron Paul

Especially Congress criminals.

Compared to Ron Paul, most have their flaws. Compared to Ron Paul, most Congress criminals are terrible tyrants. I think that's what is happening. Ron Paul is so extraordinary in government that comparing anyone else to him results in disappointment, even his son.

So, even though he's one of our very best representatives in government, Rand Paul results in disappointment when compared to his father. We get angry with those we care about, even for small things; we see someone else's kid screwing up pretty bad and probably ignore it, but when our kid screws up the slightest, there's hell to pay.

Most politicians says stuff

Most politicians says stuff that their crowd likes but then turns around and does horrendous things when they cast votes. This guy says stuff that disgusts us and then turns around introduces amendments to disarm the FDA, shut down the Ex-Im bank, end the wars, and audit the FED!

"A man had two sons. He went to the first and said, 'Son, go and work in the vineyard today.' And he answered, 'I will not,' but afterward he changed his mind and went. And he went to the other son and said the same. and he answered, 'I go, sir,' but he did not go. Which of the two did the will of his father?" - Matt. 21:28-31

"You must be frank with the world; frankness is the child of honesty and courage...Never do anything wrong to make a friend or keep one...Above all do not appear to others what you are not" - Robert E. Lee, CSA

Excellent comment! Rand is

Excellent comment! Rand is simply pandering to the establishment. He is MY senator and I'm from WV.

Clear-headed and consice

thank you for posting, Hope you get voted up 11 more times.

But that man should play the tyrant over God, and find Him a better man than himself, is astonishing drama indeed!~~D. Sayers

McCain has the wrong type of birds in sight: Angry Birds are the type!

Sigh? How bout, FUCK YOU Rand

Sigh? How bout, FUCK YOU Rand you little douche bag!
