Watch the media go spastic over the Hitler reference. Good. We need outrage from Republicans willing to take the political risk.

Ted Cruz did his part today as well by forcing Eric we-are-a-nation-of-cowards Holder to admit that droning Americans on American soil, who do not pose an imminent threat of bodily harm, is unConstitutional.  I, however, don't like the codicil.

On the other hand, Boehner's screwing us over, but good.  First, he got rid of the TEA Party and conservative Conservatives, then had the House change a rule prohibiting amendments to the Continuing Resolution, which they're working on now, and which will fully fund the government for the rest of the year, allowing continuing implementation of Obamacare.

Anticipate seeing McConnell sidestepping or diminishing Paul.

It was already a very tenuous situation, but the GOP finally crossed the final line for me when they put Boehner back in as Speaker. I will never vote for another one.

And they are REPUBLICANS! We need them in power and I am praising God that the three men are there, (Rand, Cruz, and Lee, so far!)

Lee who?

In six years they may not be running as Republicans, they may be running on the Free Conservative Party.

Paul has now been aided in his effort by Mike Lee, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and... Democrat senator Ron Wyden.

This drones killing Americans thing is going to be aired out, it seems.

Now he is talking about the Administration labeling people who hoard food or respect the Constitution as terrorists, and where this could lead.  Harry Reid tried to stop him by giving him the opportunity to speak for 30 minutes on the confirmation of Brennan.   ::hysterical::  Paul is really airing the dirty laundry today, bless his soul.

Every Republican should be joining in and supporting Senator Paul. I know wishful thinking.

It's on CSPAN tv also.

Watching Rand Paul's filibuster should be required.
At this moment he is expressing the rule of law and
African cleptocracy.
