U.S. Sen. Rand Paul one of the more controversial members of the GOP party was surrounded by a group of vocal protesters overnight which he hyperbolically stated “threatened his life” as he was heading back to his hotel in Washington D.C. from the White House following the conclusion of the Republican National Convention.

“Just got attacked by an angry mob of over 100, one block away from the White House,” Paul wrote in a tweet at 1:39 a.m. Friday. “Thank you to @DCPoliceDept for literally saving our lives from a crazed mob.”

Videos show protesters surrounding Paul and his wife, Kelley, on a crowded block in Washington D.C. Protesters are chanting “no justice, no peace” and “say her name, Breonna Taylor.”

In Paul’s home state of Kentucky, protesters in Louisville have been marching for more than 90 days to demand justice for Breonna Taylor, the 26-year-old Black woman and emergency room technician who was unarmed when killed by police inside her home in March.

Bette Midler’s Tweet About Rand Paul Has Fox News and Conservatives In A Tizzy

A tweet made by the patron saint of gay men, The Divine Miss M. herself about Rand Paul and his arduous 7 hour delay of the  U.S. Senate voting on a two-year budget deal meant to avert a government shutdown has Fox News and some very overly sensitive CON-servatives in a tizzy.

Via FAUX News:

Bette Midler shocked the Twitterverse on Thursday with a post suggesting Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., should be physically attacked for his stance on the spending budget in the Senate.

Midler tweeted Thursday evening, “Where’s Rand Paul’s neighbor when we need him?”


Midler’s tweet was referencing a violent November incident during which Paul was assaulted by his neighbor and suffered several injuries.

Rene A. Boucher, 58, admitted to attacking an unsuspecting Paul in his yard and is facing 21 months in prison. Paul suffered bruises to his lungs and broken ribs, and contracted pneumonia following the attack.

One of Paul’s aides, Sergio Gor, called out Midler for a tweet that crossed the line.

“This is disgusting @BetteMidler calling for violence. She should be ashamed,” Gor tweeted.

Shocking and disgusting? They obviously don’t know Better Midler at all.

(Bette Midler imitation) Those dirty motherfuckers.

The Bowling Green Massacre Part 2: Tea Party Senator Rand Paul Tackled By Next Door Neighbor

Featured, Gay News Domestic & U.S. Politics, Of Interest, , ,

 

Via ABC News:

Sen. Rand Paul‘s neighbor was arrested after he allegedly “tackled [Sen. Rand Paul] from behind” at the senator’s Bowling Green, Kentucky home, according to a court document.

The Republican senator informed responding state police troopers that Rene Boucher, 59, approached him on his property at around 3:30 p.m. on Friday and allegedly “tackled him from behind, forcing him to the ground and causing pain,” the complaint warrant, first reported by ABC News affiliate WBKO.

Sen. Paul suffered “small cuts to the nose and mouth area,” also was having difficulty breathing “due to a potential rib injury,” the warrant states.

When questioned about the attack, the warrant adds, Boucher “admitted going onto Paul’s property and tackling.”

The senator, the warrant also noted, sought medical treatment by a physician.

A spokeswoman confirmed Paul sustained a minor injury and said the politician was “blindsided.”

“Sen. Paul was blindsided and the victim of an assault,” according to the statement, adding that the 54-year-old politician suffered minored injuries and “is fine.”

While many right-wing propaganda sites are trying to make it politically motivated (Boucher is a registered Democrat) neighbors are saying that Paul and Boucher have “had an ongoing feud.” And though Boucher is shown through Facebook postings to be high critical of President Donald Trump, an advocate for gun control and healthcare reform. There does not seem to be any posts that target Senator Paul.

Boucher is being held at Warren County Regional Jail in lieu of a $5,000 bond. The report says that if convicted of the Class A misdemeanor, Boucher could face a year in prison. The Daily News report adds that Warren County Attorney Amy Milliken said Boucher could face extra charges, based on “the injuries” suffered by Paul.

Never forget The Bowling Green Massacre

Rand Paul Naked

 

Via CNN:

A photoshopped image of Ted Cruz in boxing clothes. Another image of a shirtless and brawny Rand Paul. And lots of fire-breathing bald eagles. America’s Liberty PAC — a pro-Paul super PAC — is releasing a five-figure digital ad buy over the weekend, featuring a WWE-style video that promotes a rare gathering of the U.S. Senate this Sunday to debate the Patriot Act just as key provisions of the law are set to expire. “Sunday, Sunday, Sunday,” the juiced-up narrator says, previewing what the PAC is calling a “brawl for liberty” on the Senate floor. The video goes after Cruz, calling him a “capitulating Canadian,” a likely reference to Cruz’s support for legislation that would tweak the NSA domestic phone surveillance program but still reauthorizes portions of the Patriot Act.

How very Presidential…

 

 

Rand Paul On Fox News: Same-Sex Marriage “Offends” Me – Video

Rand paul

 

In an interview with Bret Baier of Fox New on Friday Potential 2016 Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul said  affording the distinction to marriage to same-sex couples “offends myself and a lot of other people.”

“I’m for tradition marriage, I think marriage is between a man and a woman. Ultimately, we could have fixed this a long time ago if we just allowed contracts between adults. We didn’t have to call it marriage, which offends myself and a lot of people. I think having competing contracts that would give them equivalency before the law would have solved a lot of these problems, and it may be where we’re still headed.” 

Looks like someones sniffing the toupee glue again and kissing right-wing ass.

 

#VVS14 – Values Voter Summit Friday Recap: Bachmann, Cruz, Palin, and Paul; More Loons Than you Can Shake A Stick At – VIDEOS

Values Voter Summit

 

Fridays gathering of of the Family Research Councils evangelical conservatives hate group’s Values Voter Summit started off with a quartet of crazies straight from central casting with Michele Bachmann. Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee,  Sarah Palin and Rand Paul all taking the stage the first day and all of them rebuking an unpopular President Barack Obama while skirting divisive social issues.

“Oh, the vacuum of American leadership we see in the world,” Texas Sen. Ted (Shut the Goverment down) Cruz declared. “We need a president who will speak out for people of faith, prisoners of conscience.  How do we win? We defend the values that are American values,” Cruz said. “We stand for life. We stand for marriage. We stand for Israel.”

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul echoed the theme in a speech describing America as a nation in “spiritual crisis.””Not a penny should go to any nation that persecutes or kills Christians,” said Paul, who like Cruz is openly considering a 2016 presidential bid.

Michele (Crazy Eyes) Bachmann took the stage and cracked a few jokes at the top, including a dig at MSNBC and a wonder of whether Nancy Pelosi or John Boehner would miss her more.

She talked up her strong stand against the Obama administration, especially on foreign policy. Bachmann said Obama is “the first anti-Israel president in history.” And as for Clinton, Bachmann recommended another goal for the former Secretary of State to accomplish: “permanent retirement!”

Bachmann also talked about how to combat the threat of ISIS. She called this “spiritual warfare” that can only be resolved with strong military action. Bachmann said, “You kill their leader. You kill their council. You kill their army until they wave the white flag of surrender.”

But it was Sarah Palin who  took the stage at the Values Voter Summit to much pomp and circumstance, mocking  President Barack Obama for his now-infamous “latte salute” and telling tthe audience to uphold the values she said liberals and the “lamestream media” have tossed aside.

“The media is trying to say our basic core values divide, how about truth and liberty and opportunity and life. … Do they divide?”

The part pep talk, part lunatic rant  the usual right wing rhetoric “why are the liberals so intolerant?” and “do you think it’s time to abolish the IRS?” with Palin making a fool of herself once again by getting the of the White House wrong, referring to “1400 Pennsylvania Avenue” (it’s 1600).

GOP Senators Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul Add Union Busting Amendment To ENDA

Featured, Gay News Domestic & U.S. Politics, , , , , , ,

Rand Paul bad toupee

As if the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) did not have enough problems with religious extremists and a gaping religious exemptions clause that renders it almost useless and would give religious organizations, schools, hospitals and businness a free pass to continue discriminating LEGALLY against the LGBT community.  NOW we have Senators Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) trying to attach a national so-called “right-to-work” law to the Employment Non-Discrimination Act.  The two filed an amendment attaching ENDA to the anti-union measure hours before it passed the key hurdle of cloture on its way to its to the  floor debate and vote.

The idea behind right-to-work laws is much more complicated and deceiving than the name suggests. The laws prohibit unions from requiring dues payments from all employees in a unionized workplace. That creates a free-rider problem whereby workers who stand to gain higher wages and better job conditions from a successful union contract bargaining effort can refuse to help pay for those efforts. While the laws are often billed as rescuing workers from being forced to pay union dues, it weaken unions, and drives down wages. Workers in right-to-work states like Michigan and Indiana make about $1,500 less per year than those in other states and workplace safety and health insurance benefits are much weaker according to studies of the 22 states that operate under the policy.

Dirty GOP politics and corporate greed at the expense of civil rights and the well being of American citizens.

THAT is the Republican party

Watch Kentucky Krazy GOP Rand Paul Compare “Obamacare” To Russian Bread (Video)

Crazy Rand Paul

Kentucky GOP Senator Rand Paul appeared on The Daily Show last night to hawk his new pop-up book and trash “Obamacare”.  Paul compared The Affordable Health Care Act to the Soviet bread crisis and stating that medical prices are so high because of “supply and demand”.

Paul is such an idiot that John Oliver didn’t have to mock him.  Paul took care of that himself.

Rand Paul Claims Liberal Elites Want to Exterminate “Christians”

Featured, Gay News Domestic & U.S. Politics, , , , ,

Rand Paul is the NEW Michelle Bachmann

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) went off the deep end this week at Ralph Reed’s Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to the Majority Conference at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C., when he doubled down on the good old War on Christianity meme because he believe these poor bigots are in danger of extinction saying that whoever the Islamists don’t get, the liberal elites will.

“It angers me to see my tax dollars supporting regimes that put Christians to death for blasphemy against Islam, countries that put to death Muslims who convert to Christianity and counties who imprison anyone who marries outside their religion. “And your government, or more correctly you are having to pay for it. You are being taxed to send money to countries that are not only intolerant of Christians but openly hostile…”

Then Paul goes even further into crazy town saying ““There is a war on Christianity, not just from liberal elites here at home, but worldwide.”

Rand Paul doesn’t care about the persecution of gays and lesbians, or of transgender individuals  and is perfectly okay for Christians to treat non-Christians in these ways, for example, the “Kill the Gays” legislation in Uganda, or reducing the LGBT community and non-Christians to second-class citizen status here at home which is obvious by his early sign up to headline Tony Perkin’s and the FRC’s annual HATERPOLOOZA the Values Voters Summit.  And yet he has the audacity, the gall to spew such utter and traitorous bullshit to the feeble minded to garner votes.

Rand Paul is far from a Christian.  He’s a fusion of Social Darwinism, Dominionism, and Ayn Rand beliefs of toxic proportions. Every aspect of his belief system (if he believes anything at all other than his own power) is designed to crush any other beliefs, secular or religious.

He’s a dangerous little man that needs to be stopped before it gets too late.
