So, Rand Paul is going to vote to block the "emergency".

But I love how the four GOPers' reason for voting to block is "What if the Dems come along later and declare a national emergency for climate change or health care? You know...a REAL emergency?"

Of course, they don't say it that way, but that's what I hear.

I'm glad he's voting against it, but Paul seems to me to be the type who just likes to be contrary to everything because it gets him a lot of attention.

"Black And White"

Stick to your guns
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Nobody knows the trouble this poor boy's seen
People will believe anything

Man on the run
Always gets it in the end
Nobody cares 'cause nobody shares his dream
People don't believe anything
Everything is changed
Everything is still the same
It's just a part of the game

Blood on the moon
Patterns running across the floor
A musical inside a movie inside a dream
Guess you can believe anything
Everything is changed

Everything is still the same
It's all a part of the game

Mama, papa, boys, and girls
Holding hands around the world
Wrong is wrong and right is right
Nothing changes overnight
I'll believe it when I see it in black and white

Tell me the truth
Nobody leaves here alive
In the black core of doubt
Trying to get out in the light
Sometimes you can't see anything
Everyone is changed
Everyone is still the same
They can't get out of the game
