I respect that he initiated a real filibuster and stood up there. And it's an issue that is worthy of both attention and discussion. Somebody commented the other day that Rand Paul sounded like MoveOn circa 2003, which is an interesting observation.
__________________But let's not get too carried away with this guy, who has shown himself to be astoundingly stupid on many other issues. Did we forget his calls to end the Department of Education because, as he put it "I don’t like the idea of somebody in Washington deciding that Susie has two mommies is an appropriate family situation and should be taught to my kindergartner at school"? Is that now a libertarian view? |

I think this was more about Rand Paul's brand name than any sort of outrage. He's going to make a run in 2016 and this is his start

I don't know the source of your quote by Ran Paul, but as a Libertarian and a public school teacher I agree. The Department of Education is worthless. |

again, I will say I expect Rand Paul to have more impact than his father, certainly one to watch

The GOP civil war is a thing to behold.
