You know, this sentiment is very prevalent in the Rand Paul supporter thought-sphere.

What is the implication? "Rand can't speak the truth or he'll never get through the primary."

Ok, and then what? It gets EASIER after that? Is that logical?

"Yeah, sure. Once Rand has x amount of power he'll be able to do what he wants." Is that what everyone's thinking? That somehow once you've climbed deep enough into the snake pit you're given free reign?

There is no "until" people. You want to play the game you can't speak the truth EVER. Ever, ever, ever, ever. There is no magic point where Rand gets to stop doing it like this. That's why I get so frustrated with this. It's like everyone who supports him "no matter what" is looking forward to some future PSYCHE! moment. It doesn't work like that, folks.

"There is no magic point where Rand gets to stop doing it like this," sighed a commenter called Wizard Watson in a long RonPaulForums thread. "That's why I get so frustrated with this. It's like everyone who supports him 'no matter what' is looking forward to some future PSYCHE! moment. It doesn't work like that, folks."
 
wizardwatson is spot on. Its why I argue Rand Paul supporters should get with the Rand Paul program if he is there man: believe and defend his positions. Then court the evangelicals. My congressman sold out on the Iran deal too :(

I guess I just don't vote.

I think the deal is good. Israel's military thinks its good: http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2015/08/israeli-military-brass-support-iran-deal.html
Part of our own elite thinks its a good deal. J Street supports it. The ones that dislike it are either crazy or owned by the Likud Lobby. The deal doesn't mean that the US will not have a nutcase for a President (most likely) who will attack Iran because there is money to be made from war profiteering and because at least one old billionaire bribed them to do it. The rest of the world would just see another act of unilateral aggression by a puppet who is owned by the shadow government.

I'm not sure what I was "spot on" about unless you mean the part about a snowball's chance in hell of this not going through.

Anyway, today I think sealed the deal. September 17th was the due date and the democrats blocked disapproval from even coming to a vote.

Man, if only we could have seen this coming. Oh wait, Republicans voted unanimously practically in favor of these rules which ensured it wouldn't come to a vote. :rolleyes:
