Discussion for article #235186

So what ? He likes crazy guys and crazy talk, Rand Paul and Putin are made for each other…

Meet the unintended consequences of Freedom of Speech and the internets. Randi is just Ron’s BS in a newer package. Gold is down, the dollar is up. Time to stop whistling Dixie.

I’m not sure it’s news that Rand Paul is quite a bit crazier than most GOPers…

Most of the other candidates are just self absorbed assh0les with egos the size of Mount Rushmore who will sell their souls to be President. Or total sellouts who will carry the water bottle of whatever group pays them the most without regard to the damage left in their wake. Or a religious zealot who suffers from a burning need to impose his religion on the rest of the world, lest his soul burn in damnation for allowing heathens to roam free in America.

Rand Paul is alone in that he combines the giant ego with a being a crazy lunatic true believer in the fringe-iest of conspiracy theories out there. In short, he’s that paranoid guy you used to know from high school who believed every conspiracy theory out there.

Send in the clowns.

To me, Ms Thompson’s article is worthy of consideration for development into a series,and from there expanded into a comprehensive randscape review and analysis, even a book, towards a definite theory of American crankeology.

IMO it’d take an interdisciplinary approach, including, I suggest, the work in which Chris Mooney specializes.

I’ll even suggest a title: ‘I’m Not Wearing Pants!’

It is a pretty select group of certifiably bonkers weirdos who couldn’t run a campaign for school committee. Rand Paul has no coherent national constituency, and I can’t see him doing very well in Iowa, NH, nor South Carolina. So where does that leave him? Railing and whining about the media who is “out to get him” no doubt!

Randi Ayn is DOA.

Not only is randy a testy, whiner. He is also a complete nut job!

Instead of campaign buttons and bumper stickers, Rand should distribute tin foil hats to his supporters.

It’s going to be such a fun election cycle…

The biggest laugh? Reince Preibus( If that IS a real name) and the rest of the leadership were desperate to NOT have the same nut parade as last time.

Kent Sorenson obviously copped a plea when he plead guilty. So he admitted that he took a bribe, but the person who bribed him hasn’t (yet) been indicted. It’s pretty clear that Jesse Benton is going down.

I do not believe that there is sufficient understanding about the term “racist”.

But a look at Rand Paul is a good start.

I wonder how many goobers are cursing out Glen Beck with all that Gold they bought when the price was high?

Rand Paul Tells Republican Critics:

‘War Is Not a Game. Defeat The Washington Machine.

while using battleship as background. The only prop that’s missing is the codpiece.

Alex Jones is probably my favorite crazy. I love all the bullshit he and his pals come up with for why he didn’t get his ass totally kicked by a guy he challenged to a fight. i thini it happened back in '09 but don’t quote me.

The Rand Paul Presidential Campaign as a Visual Metaphoric:

Ron Rand Paul is a little teste(s), and these are the nuts he hangs with.

Do you know how hard it is to get real tin foil these days? It’s all aluminum and that doesn’t help screen out the voices at all!
