Rand Paul And The Company He Keeps

Posted by | June 30, 2015 21:00 | Filed under: Contributors Opinion Politics Tengrain



We continue to be amazed with the flexibility and agility of Schrödinger’s Candidate, Sen. Rand Paul, the 2016 Goat Rodeo contender and noted Aqua Buddhist, who defying all laws of physics manages to be on all sides of all issues.

First some background:

You may recall in 2013 Cliven Bundy’s unprecedented land grab to avoid paying one million dollars in federal grazing fees to the Bureau of Land Management. His grab was much fêted by the right wing media in the name of Freedom!  And soon Bundy was joined by ammosexuals and militia groups hoping to start something bigger.

Then Bundy released his ground-breaking Sociology Study on The Negro, and the bottom fell out of Bundymania, which gave Wingnuttia a sad. But chin up, the Confederacy wing of the party loved him even more. And there was that attempt to start a revolution when some members of the militia guarding Bundy’s ranch murdered two police officers, covered them with a Gadsden “Don’t Tread on Me” flag, a note saying the revolution had begun and a swastika, and then proceeded to kill a shopper at Walmart.  They died in a shootout with police shortly thereafter.

Rand Paul made the calculation that supporting this particular racist and armed crackpot might not work out to his advantage. In public and on the record, Paul said that Bundy’s musings about whether African-Americans would be “better off as slaves” were “offensive and I wholeheartedly disagree with him.”

    When you plant snakes in your backyard, dont be surprised when they don’t only bite your neighbor.

      Do you plant a snake , head down or tail down. Inquiring minds want to know. I guess if they are going to bite, it would be tail down ?

      From the look on the Rock Chuck’s face and Rand’s face, it makes you wonder what Rand is up to with her.
