Rand Paul filibustering Brennan nomination on Senate floor

[acptulsa]

Rand: You want this filibuster ended? Bring forth a bipartisan resolution that we won't drone Americans on American soil, but will give people due process.

Crickets: Chirp. Chirp.

3:34 -- Paul, Lee, and Cruz throwing questions back and forth. They can keep this going for a while. Read Kevin Glass's write-up on some of the conservative writers Paul mentioned--Kevin Williamson and Conor Friedersdorf--and why he's filibustering.

What about a write-up on some authors he alluded to, I.e. lord acton and Lysander Spooner?

That was a nice treatise on incrementalism.

Whoever answered Burr's phone said they would pass on my words. Quick response. One ring.

I'm so f'ing PUMPED that I got to have breakfast with Rand Paul while he was in NH campaigning for his dad. I had breakfast with history in the making.

Moran and Cruz are squarely on the bandwagon, and demonstrating it with their questions. Not only are they nice softballs for Rand, they demonstrate to these guys' constituents that they're thinking.

LOL Cruz: Remember the Alamo!

You go, Cruz!

LOL at Rubio just tweeting this:



He's on the Intelligence Committee and he didn't question Brennan one time about this.

unless I am misunderstanding this quote . . .

The Senator from Florida is an idiot . . .
Rand's questions to the nominee were in the letter he wrote . . . damn Rubio . . .
should I change my handle to rubioreallystupidneocon?

Cruz bringing up the Senator from Kentucky as a native born Texan . . . on the anniversary of the Alamo!

I just got power back so missed this. Is it worth a listen? In other words, anything new? No way I'm going through a bunch of pages here.

If the filibuster goes on long enough, we will be treated to Travis' last words at the Alamo.

Yeah, man, it's great!

It's still going on. Yes, it's well worth calling your Senators and telling them to support Rand Paul, and listening to.

This is glorious

 

[Brian4Liberty]

Wow, that opens up a lot of room for quotes from people at the Alamo! There has to be some goods from that group. Anybody have any?

Someone should turn that into a tweet and send it to Rubio.
