fpete13527 (Diary) Friday, March 11th at 9:32AM EDT (link)Paul gets right to the heart of what the progressives have no clue about. Hogan (Obama) shows that she could care less about the fact the radical green agenda solution is not necessarily a solution to be forced on people. The effectiveness of the solution and the overall logic and cost are flawed.
Just as with Obama’s overall NON energy policy (IE detrimental strategy) this falls right into play.
For Obama/Cass and the Dems the mantra is:
We will NUDGE and FORCE you to do what we want in order to affect a change in our social engineering projects to forward progressive oppressive government and we will brainwash our kids to be clueless about our real motives……and be arrogant and condescending when called on it.
I so loved this, and Rand Paul is my new favorite Senator
earlgrey (Diary) Friday, March 11th at 10:46AM EDT (link)I don’t care about all the Ron Paul nuttiness. I just love Rand Paul. He says exactly what I would have wanted to say, and I am really sorry to hear his toilets aren’t working.
This is why he got elected
Raven (Diary) Friday, March 11th at 12:08PM EDT (link)He cuts straight to the heart of the matter. Pro-choice vs anti-choice. And, most clearly, who is really trying to control what happens in our bedrooms (and our bathrooms, and our kitchens, and our laundryrooms…)
“If you do not have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.”
Luke 22:36
Finally a Senator who asks the right questions.
gekster (Diary) Friday, March 11th at 1:00PM EDT (link)And the libs halting response, priceless.
They say Republicans are for the rich, Democrats are for the poor.
If they need more voters,
then they have to make more of who they are for.
We are there in the various Tea Party groups, leaderless, but not rudderless.
We steer always toward the Constitutional principles this nation was founded upon.
Erick Brockway
I’ve gone from
“Hope and Change” to
“Hopeless and Changeless”
I asked the same thing myself, though probably
melissatx (Diary) Friday, March 11th at 2:42PM EDT (link)with a little MORE profanity, I confess.
Paul asked, “Why not call it what it is.” I will.
It is extortion, bullying, economic terrorism, It’s narcissism run amok. It’s unchecked power. It’s a Napoleonic complex fed by the Narcissist in Chief.
It’s overreaching of the Federal governmnent into our every day lives to dictate what we can/can’t do, what we can/can’t buy, what we should/must by…..it is Obamacare’s ugly little sister.
And it needs to be beat back into it’s place or stripped of power. Now.
I agree the only place I want to see the Energy Dept stick their noses, is in the head……
What, no snappy comeback MSSSSSSSSSS. Hogan?
But a Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty, once lost, is lost forever. John Adams
