Rand Paul on a marathon speaking filibuster right now.

[sig239]

Cruz mentions Texas. GO! Texas! Watching, Cruz, Paul, Lee makes me feel so much better. I hope they light a fire in the hearts of others like them.

Maybe just maybe this will be seen by the sheep and they will wake up stand behind some of these guys back. And take a long hard look at whats been done to the constitution.




















But I doubt it.

It's nice to see them fighting the good fight. I commend them for their tenacity. In my opinion the US Senate has 3 senators right now. That's it. The rest is just styrofoam peanuts.

This right here is exactly why amending the filibuster rules is out of the question for me. We need procedural rules that protect minority political groups from majority political groups, so we're not just a simple democracy. The filibuster is one of those procedural rules that makes sense.

And Reid pushed so hard to make it a simple majority to override a filibuster for 2 years which coincidentally would be until the elections where Reid could lose his position

Rubio is quoting JayZ? Sweet

He quoted Wiz Khalifa earlier.

I find it hilarious that this is Historical and MSNBC nor CNN has it as a headline. CNN it's buried on the front page, MSNBC I didn't even see anything.
Meanwhile, Rand Paul likes on Facebook have gone up like 50,000 in about 3 hours.

What's the deal on Mitch McConnell? Is he just trying to get in on this as a publicity stunt, or is he in line with Rand's line of thought?

Hell no. McMconnell is an empty suit and backed Rand's opponent Trey Grayson. He's only there tonight to get his name on the list.

Thats exactly what it was. Funny how the smarmy bastard doesn't give a shit about the constitution until he realized a bunch of the american people are boosting cspans ratings like crazy watching the guy who does.

Fuck him, and all the other smarmy bastards that have magically shown up in the past half hour after leaving paul alone to fight for 11hours.

He's trying to get some bump from it. Now that Obama's dinner is over, R's are showing up for face time and to offer a few minutes in front of Cspan

I've noticed this same thing here recently. I was thinking all the fucking coat riders just showed up.

I would like to direct this to the distinguished members of the panel: You lousy cork-soakers. You have violated my farging rights. Dis somanumbatching country was founded so that the liberties of common patriotic citizens like me could not be taken away by a bunch of fargin iceholes... like yourselves.

And the smug douche Majority Whip shows up.... Fuck that guy. He's essentially saying "There's a hearing coming up, now sit down and shut up."

[Forever_frost]

He did that earlier. Longer this goes on, better the R's look and Paul in particular.

Certainly Dick is living up to his name.

Good job bringing up a scenario that was anaswered.... 8 hours before.
