Fire, woodchipper, chainsaw – pretty unimaginative choices. So, not just stupid, also lame.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.

In the video, he asked viewers to vote on how they’d like to destroy the 70,000-page document.

Why, as with everything else you Republicans consider destructive: Down your throat or up your ass, Rand.

At this rate he’s not even going to make the first debate. Increasingly irrelevant.

A budget analyst said this afternoon that Paul’s flat-rate tax proposal would result in a loss of about 3 TRILLION dollars in tax revenue - AND the 1% would be the ones paying less.

Yep. To survive the first round or two, he needs to focus on Donald Trump and up the ante on being absolutely crazy-out-there clownish. Otherwise, Trump sucks all the air out of the room.

This gimmick just reeks of desperation.

Noting that the last major rewrite was in 1986 – by Saint Ronald Reagan!

That fucker was in Holland, Michigan recently…home to more brain-dead Republicans than you can shake a stick at.

Now where have I seen that sort of thing before?

Oh yeah, that awful Sprint commercial…“Cut your bill in half…” Lame.

Rand Paul…still in the business of stealing ideas off others.
Plagiarizers never die, they just go on to find new shit to steal and copy.

How do you kill that which has no life?

At first glance, with that thing on Rand’s head, I thought it was Trump.

Watch him cut Ted Cruz in half? And for his next trick, The Great Donald will dump Christie’s carcass somewhere into a watery grave off NJ just like Jimmy Hoffa but won’t have to weigh down the body?

How can any self-respecting citizen vote for any of these Republican clowns without having to admit that they are one, too? I really can’t wait to canvass some upscale neighborhoods next year and ask them that very question.

The humiliation must be really taking it’s toll on the small business and country club set in America. This is what they have been supporting for the past 50 years? This is what they get for all their donations and support to Republicans? Talk about being taken. They’ve been even dumber than the TeaParty yokels.

Needs better stunts with more irredeemable assholery.

Rand is overcompensating for something…

True dat. With a stake through its heart? A silver bullet? A photon torpedo? Your guess is as good as mine.

You are absolutely right about two things: your characterization of the Holland, MI population and the fact that Rand Paul stole this idea (nothing new for him) from a lame commercial.

Probably just practicing for a guest cameo in “Sharknado IV, Stihl Stupid”
