Rand Paul on The O'Reilly Factor 6/11/13 (video added)

Going prime time for the 2nd day in a row. Not even counting online pieces, Rand's already probably reached 15 million people alone with his tv/radio appearances over the last two days. He sure is a pro at owning issues du jour and turning them into libertarian rhetorical classes.

Oreilly's talking points from last night (June 10th) sounded like they were written by Rand.

"The surveillance situation is very confusing, but vitally important for every American. Here is the headline: The U.S. government is building a 1,000,000 square foot complex in Utah that will house phone call and email data taken from Americans and foreigners alike. Also, a leaker named Edward Snowden gave information to a London newspaper saying the U.S. is taking information from tech companies in order to fight the war on terror.

We really don't know exactly what the government is doing. Phone calls and emails to and from American citizens are being scrutinized; it's a massive intrusion and it affects all of us. What could happen, and what has happened, is that corrupt government officials have put out private data illegally. We saw that in the IRS hearings last week - a pro-traditional marriage organization had data leaked to its enemies, allegedly by an IRS official.

In the case of emails, you have actual words on paper that people have said in private. If that information is being stored in Utah, that's flat-out unconstitutional. So this is one big mess, and ideologically it's absolutely chaos.

Supporters of the NSA surveillance program include Senator John McCain, Senator Diane Feinstein, Republican Karl Rove and Democrat Kirsten Powers.

Opposed are Glenn Beck, Michael Moore, Rush Limbaugh, and Al Gore.

Some liberals are surprised that President Obama is behind the program, but the President wants a powerful federal government that runs nearly everything, so this is consistent.

Here's what I think: The war on terror requires aggressive federal surveillance. Storing phone call data is questionable, but I think it's permissible under the Constitution. But seizing actual words of Americans said in private, unless there's probable cause, is clearly unconstitutional. I'm very tough on national security, but this is dangerous.

One more thing: All this government intrusion didn't stop those Boston bombers, did it?"

Unless Oreilly pulls a total 180, he's is going to help Rand look like a rockstar tonight.

He was polite last time. O'Reilly tends to be dazzled by the magic 'senator' title. It really is magic. Only 100 people out of 320 million have it. I guess state senator's also have it but the US senate one is prestigeous. O'Reilly worships the state and the titles it confers on its rulers.

No Bill. The war on terror that never ends is not permissible under the Constitution.
 
O'Reilly's comment to Beck today. "as long as he comes around on Iran and doesn't follow his father down the yellow brick road of insanity."

When in reality the yellow brick road leads one to find what the Wizard is doing behind the curtain, another Bill fail. When I encounter these chubs, which is quite rare, who espouse this nonsense I tell them that if they want to strike Iran over their wanting nuclear capabilities for energy, I ask them where they're going to find the money to pay for a war against Russia and China.

That's true. When was the "war on terror" declared anyway? I must have missed that. Not that you can declare war on a "tactic" anyway.
