(Oh Brother) Unenthused Rand Paul Lifelessly Applauds Netanyahu Speech

[ctiger2]

the real Rand showed, and it removed any doubts I had. he is Ron's son.

I'll Stand with THIS Rand.

 

[Brian4Liberty]

How dare he not show enough reverence to our Israeli masters! Burn him at the stake!

"You did not show the proper enthusiasm for our leader, comrade. It has been duly noted."

 

[Standing Liberty]

I thought this was a joke until I saw this on other "news" sources. They bring up Rand for this, yet not even mention that he won CPAC. This is sad that they are using worshop of a foreign leader as a way to measure potential US Presidents.

 

[economics102]

The other people in the GIF don't seem particularly enthused either, they just seem neutral.

I think what we're seeing is simply Rand's Resting Bitch Face.

 

[Christian Liberty]

Rand will be a white supremacist anti-Semite in no time.

Every sane person is (in the minds of the fascists.)

 

[Dr.3D]

Up against the wall.

So ya
Thought ya
Might like to go to the show.
To feel the warm thrill of confusion
That space cadet glow.
Tell me is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise.

 

[Christian Liberty]

Put yourself in his situation. If you were a Senator trying to change the discussion in this country, knowing what Rand knows, would you be like all these other tyrannical clowns and put on your best clap face? I wouldn't do it, and I don't think anyone here would either.

I hate politics. We need more people who will run without playing the game. It doesn't matter if they win. Our nation is under judgment and having good people stand up for truth will just confirm that.

That said, if Rand really can get to the White House, that would be awesome.

I definitely wouldn't do it, but then, I'd flat out have no issue telling anyone what I believe, any time, any situation.

No, that gif is intentional. Tillis' placement and the capture is scripted.

 

[Jeremy]

It's almost laughable how far out of the way the media will go to try to make Rand look bad over and over. Someone could write a book about it.

 

[philipped]

When you know he's a warmonger but you gotta convince your party that war is not the answer...

When you poll 1st at CPAC and get a briefing from staff that Walker is getting all the attention for it....

When Kentucky GOP won't tell you how they're leaning on the Caucus vote....

 

[pcosmar]

 

[Vanguard101]

This makes me less hostile towards his stance on Israel

 

[Todd]

Yeah he looks less enamored than the rest, but this looks like a nice way to create a story that just isn't there. Just more fodder to get people to line up against him.

Did anyone read some of the tweets? Rands..."hatred" shows.

Unenthused Rand Paul Lifelessly Applauds Netanyahu Speech

by BRENDAN BORDELON

With his outspoken views against foreign aid and a muscular foreign policy, Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul was less-than-enthused by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech on the Iranian nuclear threat. And people definitely noticed. [and here they post several Twitter tweets from people I have never heard of to prove it:]

Is Rand Paul having a root canal? — Mike Doran (@Doranimated) March 3, 2015

Why does Rand Paul look so sour watching Netanyahu’s speech — Kenny Adetayo (@KenAdetayo) March 3, 2015
Rand Paul is NOT standing for Netanyahu… I do not think I will be standing for Rand now either — Michael Stewart (@CousinSearchNet) March 3, 2015

With his outspoken views against foreign aid and a muscular foreign policy, Kentucky Republican Senator Rand Paul was less-than-enthused by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech on the Iranian nuclear threat. And people definitely noticed. The senator’s office released a statement following the speech. “Israel is and has always been America’s friend and ally,” Paul said. ”I was pleased to hear Prime Minister Netanyahu’s speech to Congress today, and join him in calling for peace and standing together for our mutual interests. It is important to work together to prevent a nuclear Iran, and the spread of Radical Islam.”

 

[Suzu]

The scrutiny he is under from all sides can't be understated.

Didn't you mean "overstated"?

I don't think this hurts Rand too much in the primary. It shows that he will play along to the establishment voters to a point. It puts their mind at ease some in case he does get the nomination.

 

[civusamericanus]

Rand Paul doesn't seem like the type of person to complain, but does LOUD CLAPPING hurt/bother his hearing aids?

I've heard people with hearing aids say, loud clapping and applause, like at a sports event is worse than fingernails on a chalkboard.

Never even thought of that... If that is true, then all these people are beating up on a guy, because of his disability.
