1. That was a waste of my time n/t

[Britethorn]

8. My apologies

I kind of felt the same way about listening to Rand Paul.

[Helen Reddy]

2. I wish....

maybe next filibuster?

[Britethorn]

9. I would just be happy . . .

.. . If someone knocked his toupee off.

3. Data (that was) NOT FUNNY

seriously. yawn. too bad the Dems were caught off guard by old school by a new school person.

more like Eric Holder's fault for giving him an opening. do'h..

[harkonen]

4. I like the way it was done in "Scanners"

[IrishAyes]

5. Actually

... since I hoped to find out it was his bladder that exploded, yes I do think this was funny enough.

Might as well face it folks, I have very little mercy left in my heart for anything GOP. They knocked it out of me long ago, and though I try not to hate anyone in the sense of wishing them LITERAL death and dismemberment, they have expanded my notion of what's funny - pretty much any misfortune they bring on themselves. Now where'd I leave that banana peel?

I just wish others didn't have to be their collateral damage.

6. I wish this were literal. nt

7. It was a great pr publicity move on R. Paul's part, gotta give him credit.

[Britethorn]

10. Coincidently

Rand is now talking about running for President. Like father, like son.

[xtraxritical]

11. I think that would be great for Democrats!

[delrem]

12. I don't get it.

The constitution is important.
The right to trial by jury is precious.
No american should be killed by a drone.

WTF has happened to DU?
Suppose Jeb Bush runs and wins in 2016 and continues the phony "WoT" seamlessly where W and O left off. Will there be fake outrage again, turned on and off like a tap for no other reason than a D or R is in power, or what?

[Britethorn]

13. All good points!

But if Rand Paul weren't just grandstanding he would have accepted Sen. Durbin's offer to hold Senate Hearings on the use of Drones. Instead he just talked till his bladder couldn't take any more, and then announces that he thinks he might run for President in 2016. The use of Drones is a serious issue and he should be treating it in a more serious manner.
