GOP Will Pay The Price For Rand Paul's Gaffe
by David Frum
"Guess what question will now be asked of every Republican senate and congressional candidate in debates leading up to November 2010?
It’s hard to think of a more settled controversy than the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Maybe only the Civil War – which (come to think of it) the elder Ron Paul managed to align himself on the wrong side of in the last cycle...
Thus far, Democratic efforts to create a vote-enhancing villain had failed. Now Rand Paul has contrived to volunteer himself. It’s as if his mission had been to walk across an empty room without tripping. Instead, he stepped out of the room, rummaged through a hall closet, found a vacuum cleaner, plugged it in, extended the wire, took a dozen steps backward, and then raced forward to catch his ankle, plunge face forward and break his nose. As unforced errors go, this may be one of the most impressively self-destroying in recent U.S. electoral history.
As a libertarian, Rand is likely in favor of the right of suicide. But thanks to him, the damage will now be felt by others too, who will now be called upon to explain where they stand on every fruitbat idea ever aired in back issues of the Ron Paul newsletter."

What a joke. Rand Paul is awesome and Frum is finished. What did he sell 1,000 books?

He might be your new hero but it's hard not to admit he DID create some serious controversy, with what he said, it's not like media was putting a spin on some of his words.
-
Not at all, I agree with his sentiments 100%.
Its time we have a real debate in this nation on private property and what the govt can dictate to you.
I just hope that Obama, MadCow, Pelosi, et al keep it up. They have no idea what is coming their way if they continue down this road of tyranny and marxist radicalism.

More trolling and childish name calling from Blanco.
Not helping your cause my friend, not one bit.

I don't have a "cause," dipshit. You are a waste of the planet's precious oxygen.

You dont have a brain either.
Your only cause is to shill for the Communist-in-Chief.

What you are missing here is Rand is not against the civil rights act. He IS against the gov't meddling in where is shouldn't. Ever wonder why Rand WON this week? BECAUSE HE'S AGAINST BIG GOV'T. So to his believers, there's no controversy. If anything, it will solidify us further.

Rand says one thing about race.. and we are talking controversy.
Obama can hang out in a racist church for 20 years, be friends with domestic terrorists... and he gets elected.
SELECTIVE AND HYPOCRITICAL OUTRAGE ANYONE??

So you think the GOP has a winning strategy in Rand's belief that the companies should have the right to discriminate? You do realize that his stance is the exact same argument that the pro segregationist southern polls used to defend Jim Crow, right? :-\ To take his stance is no different than saying going back to "Whites Only" signs in restaurant windows is fine in 2010.
What do you think of all of the repube politicians distancing themselves from Rand's statements regarding the CRA?

AGAIN, That's NOT the point. That's not what he meant. If you read what he said about the civil rights act... ahh forget it. What he is saying is that gov't should have not intervened into business/private sector. I guess you are a believer in big gov't? I don't believe in whites only and to lump me in that nonsense is BS bro. But that is typical of your ilk, when people disagree with you they are racists. But I thought liberals were tolerant? hahahahaha...
If you read anything I wrote before you wiill know I am not in love the with the republican party at the moment. So for them to distance themselves from Rand is typical of a party with no backbone.
-
msnbc and friends are SCARED SHITLESS of rand paul.
He's his dad with hair and youth. He is ACTUALLY a conservative, not the lame posers like Romney and Palin that you guys can't blow hard enough.
So they're gonna call him a racist to marginalize him.
-
Its not going to work. The marxist left is going down hard on this one.
-
they'll be just as successful as they were in their efforts to smear the birthers and the 911 skeptics.
the left base and some moderates will buy it.
the right base will get motivated and try to convince the moderates of the truth.
we've seen this shit before. we can probably predict it every time a new tea party star moves up. We can see FOX do it to, so dont wet your pants with 'leftstream media' bashing.
-
I watched the Rand Paul interview when it happened a couple of days ago and I was honestly dissapointed in how deceptive he was. He never answered a direct question and instead tried to reframe the question as if being born black was somehow the same as choosing to carry a weapon. Just Bizzaro and the Republican leadership couldn't run away from this guy fast enough yesterday

I don't have to read what Rand Paul said...I SAW his entire 20 minute tap dance on the issue on the Rachel Maddow Show. It appears you are arguing in favor of something that you are quite poorly informed about.
When and where did I say you are racist? ??? Why are you so defensive when you were not even called a racist? LOL How about actually answering my questions if you are going to quote me?
Once again:
So you think the GOP has a winning strategy in Rand's belief that the companies should have the right to discriminate? You do realize that his stance is the exact same argument that the pro segregationist southern polls used to defend Jim Crow, right?
I don't think Rand Paul is a racist. I think he is arguing ideological purity and he is coming up against the hard truth of political reality. Not to mention he is simply quite backward and lost on the issue of The Civil Rights Act. I won't even go into how this wing nut wants to repeal the Americans With Disabilities Act, abolish the Department of Education, etc. Total libertarian nutjob that is starting to get fully exposed to the general public.
-
We should abolish the Dept of Education. It does nothing but suck up tax dollars.
We should instead use the money for teachers at the local level instead.
The ADA has been little more than a cash cow for trial lawyers.

Ask your wife how she would feel about "Women Not Allowed" signs in the windows of certain establishments. Or liquor stores selling alcoholic beverages to minors. Or the FDA not being allowed to inspect the food of "private companies" that distribute goods through retail outlets.

Rachel Maddow Looks At Last Night's Interview With Rand Paul
This women is a complete moron.She does this crap ALL the time[which is why no one watches her].She did it with a guy representing F.A.I.R she is as big a race baitor as Jesse Jackson.Once again though NEVER would she call Obama a racist despite the OVERWHELMING evidence right in front of her face but will imply that Pauls view is racist or extreme.

You are an admitted racist who is dumber than your average farm animal. Nobody gives a hot shit about your uneducated opinions, "BILLY MINIMUM."
Fuck off, cock roach.

Coming from you sites' Numero Uno Obama dildo your criticism of anyone is utterly meaningless.

Poor Benny,he obviously has a little crush on Maddow.Hey Benny ,sorry your out of luck,she is a filthy carpet muncher...oh wait,you do have a vagina,maybe you have a shot.

Reeeallly... ::) To disagree with her and have a valid different opinion is one thing but to call her a moron because she chooses to destroy puppets with facts that you can't comprehend is simply irrational. But then ....nevermind. ;D

Playing the race card is not a fact.Notice she couldnt answer his questions on guns.By the way,the reason she is a moron is because TO THIS day she hasne taken back her accusations that the KY census worker was murdered by anti government extremists fueled by right wing talk like Beck and Rush.The guy killed himself,NOT ONE WORD FROM HER ABOUT IT!!!Thats why she is a moron.

if you watched the show you'd know she doesn't think he's a racist and she even had on the head of the NAACP who said the same thing.
-
Than why harp on this?

I watched her show and she said his views were EXTREME.EXTREME is another lib code word for homophobe,racist,sexist.Incredibly Paul NEVER said he would overturn the civil rights bill or even that part of it,he simply said he would have liked to have debated it.Its amazing that this women will make a big deal over this[to try to derail a republicans election],an issue from the 1960s but has had ZERO problem with Robert Byrd a recruiter for the Ku Klux Klan or Obama or Jesse Jackson spitting in white peoples food or Al Sharpton making up rape cases.

extreme does not equal racist
RP is a libertarian and some parts of their ideology are far outside the mainstream
Maddown (and many others) have simply asked RP about his own written and spoken words
-
Than why harp on this?
harp on what?
asking Rand Paul about his political beliefs - his own written and spoken words?
-
About the Civil Rights thing. He answered the question and his agenda is far more than about a 40 year law.
Its not like he is going to change it and he admited that he would have voted for it. He said there is a debate to be had when you agree with 9 out 10 parts of a law and do you not vote for something because there may be issues associated with the 1 thing.
That's a fair debate, and what he is talking about is individual liberty and property rights.

he "admitted" he would vote for it only after having said repeatedly that he would have opposed the federal government forcing private businesses to integrate.
those views are mutually exclusive
-
So? What is the problem with that?

you really need me to explain the problem with a politician (or anyone) pretending to hold two mutually exclusive points of view?
-
Like what? He said that he agreed with 9 out of 10 things in the law and would have voted for it but had a problem with the 1.
He said that his issue is that he does not think the government should have the power to tell private businesses who they have to accomodate. now of course the issue of the resturant is of course the one everyone brings up, but he is talking about the issue on a more academic level in terms of all private businesses etc.
And its not just race, he is talking about religion, sex, race, and other issues that impace on free association.
-

That is not what he said.He said he might have opposed it but would have liked to have debated it.
Once again I will ask you.Why is this an issue for Paul but Byrd who fillabustered the bill is a hero to the left.Where was Maddows questions to him on fillibustering the civil rights act and being in the klan and nor just in the klan but a recruiter for the klan which means every sentance he uttered included the word guy.
