Rand on Maddow

[runningdiz]

Ugh.....
Like Rand I need some sleep. I believe he will be able to handle this gracefully in the future when he thinks it through more and comes up with better examples to express his point. Too many people are having knee jerk reactions on here. this is not the end of the world.

I think he did fine.
The people who will discount this, will ALWAYS discount this. The people who listened, will listen again. It doesn't matter if Rand was tired, he still did just great. I am PROUD of him for REFUSING to turn a debate in to a yes no question. This is what Charlotte Iserbyt has written about AT LENGTH in her book "The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America".

well, if it makes you feel any better, I am "new" around here. I fell for it no less than 3 years ago.
I pretty much see right through it now. That is the glory, imo, if you have lived in the dark, your eyes get used to it, and when you are given a tad bit of light, you suddenly realize that you have been given predator eyes.

Unfortunately the majority of people don't see through it, they don't pay enough attention. It's like watching Wile. E. Coyote repeatedly falling off the same cliff, except it's not very funny when he's the only one trying to defend your future and your family's futures.

I can't agree. I feel that the American People have the potential. I have endless hope. How can I have hope for myself, being "newly awakenened" if I can't have hope for others?
It's impossible.


How about stop treating Americans like they are dumb and they might stop acting like they are dumb?

Looks like he's going to need some talking points on this issue.

Next time he should ask his interviewer if he/she supports federal prohibition of ladies night at bars and senior pricing on menus.

That is ridiculous. QUOTAS ARE RACIST. PERIOD.
we are talking COP QUOTAS, RACE QUOTAS, all QUOTAS, they are inherently RACIST and most Americans know this.

Quotas suck and they remind me of that creature stiking out that belly that Ahhhhnold was trying to save.
QWWWWWAYYYYYDDDD!

Remember Grayson tried to focus the election on national security - another largely irrelevant issue this time around - and he failed miserably, just like the dems will if they make this about the civil rights act.

Honestly, this is not what voters want to hear, they want to hear about the issues that affect them. look at the polling and the top issues are the debt, healthcare, immigration all of which Conway fails big time on and if Rand works hard on those issues the people will ignore the civil rights act distorted attacks just like they did with over $3 million of attacks from Grayson and co. on national security

true, much ado about nothing, but it is my argument that Rand shouldn't underestimate people. IMO, he has done NOTHING to prove that he has, he is CONFUSING peole with the ISSUES rather than the INCONSISTENCIES, this is what people like Rachel Maddow are having a problem with. i welcome it with open arms.

From a Hotair commenter on CRA:

The correct answer was “I realize you work for the government news organ and may not have heard this yet, but the Civil Rights Act passed like 45 years ago when I was about 10. Has NPR ever asked Senior Democratic Senator and former Klansmen Robert Byrd why he actually personally voted against & filibustered the CRA?



Rand should definitely use that Byrd point if he asked about it by liberal journalists
