How CPAC 2014 was Randalized
I hate to speak so soon, but it looks like those pesky libertarian kids have done it again. Here at CPAC, I’m standing right outside of one of the small conference rooms at the Gaylord hotel (It’s a really cool panel discussion on how the next Republican convention ought to be held in Jerusalem–Hell yeah!–moderated by Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum…goose bumps!) and there are seriously more people out here in the hall with silly #StandWithRand stickers than there are in the room. This sucks.
Now, I’m not giving up yet. Early this morning, I heared that someone paid for a whole fleet of “Draft Ben Carson” buses to ship in straw poll voters. I’m not sure if all of the buses are full, but it can’t hurt. I snapped a photo of them this morning.
What’s really going to bite is if this Rand craze has spread beyond these pesky college libtards. I’m even concerned about a couple of my CR buddies. To combat this, I’ve printed off copies of Jennifer Rubin’s latest blog post eviscerating Senator Paul. Check this out. Damn, she’s good:
First, (Rand Paul’s speech) it was filled with rubbish. In going for a big applause line from a room of 20-somethings, Paul suggested that the NSA is listening to all our phone calls. This is false, and it is disturbing if he doesn’t understand the difference between metadata and the content of phone calls. (Duh, as long as you don’t call terrorists–or people who call people who call people who call terrorists, what do you have to hide?) The portrait of a government on the verge of tyranny might stir his father’s former fans, but it is quite divorced from what the NSA does and whether its program is constitutional… “Justice cannot occur without a trial,” …That’s the sort of condescending talk that will go over well with non-traditional Republicans? Even if it does find some takers on college campuses, it will infuriate the large mass of Republicans who increasingly take national security seriously. He really is planning on running to President Obama’s left on these issues…
Wow. Every rock-ribbed College Republican jock on every college campus ought to memorize this whole brilliant take-down of Rand Paul by Madame Rubin. Trust me–It’ll really get you fired up for our next war–go read the whole thing!
Let’s keep our hopes up that Santorum or Carson will win the straw poll vote at 5:00pm. I’ll be watching here. Never give up!
This is Benjamin (Thad) Dover III signing off at CPAC 2014…
Stay Blackwater strong!
Dearest Thad, I applaud your bravery for speaking out on such startling events. Our great nation is facing a real threat to our freedom, and that threats name is Rand Paul. If we we can’t allow our wise leaders to listen to phone calls, watch with drones, or act swiftly without trial, there will be no freedoms left to protect. These nonsense “libertarian” children simply don’t understand.
Semper Blackwater, Hunkle!
I see we have a RINO statist here. I have unsubscribed from iroot, didn’t think it was against the constitution but Rand will teach you RINOs a thing or two..
good luck losing the elections again!
p.s. I stand with Rand
turn on your sarcasm detector
I find this Rand Paul to be a dangerous lunatic as well.
“Justice cannot occur without a trial,”
WTF? Who the hell thinks like that?
We cannot let this kind of thinking seep into the public’s mind. The brain scrubbers on TV must be kicked into high gear before any word of this Rand fellow gets out.
