Paul vs. the RINOs

 147 Degrees West ; Filibustered Drones and Filleted Honor

 
"Did they not see that this was a set up to discredit them? To me, this is a special kind of stupid. There is no such thing as a free lunch; and there is never a free dinner. They should have known better. Now the Senate Republicans are so split they cannot even look at each other in an elevator.
" No one can blame the younger Senators for what they did, for it was a noble thing. Senators McCain and Lindsay, being two faced and engaging in secret negotiations with an evil, corrupt President? What was your noble thing in this matter?"
 
Lindsey Graham’s very bad day on Twitter  "The episode was already not looking great for Graham before he rebutted Paul on Thursday. Graham and McCain were dining at the White House with Obama while Paul was filibustering, a contrast picked up early and often by many online."

Angry McCain ups ante, calls Paul, Cruz 'wacko birds'. He also said in 2008 that we had nothing to fear from an Obama presidency. Feinstein agrees  Republicans should heed her advice on how to win elections.

Obama’s GOP Dinner Companions Defend Sit-Down with President
Obama will cheer anything that divides the GOP.

John McCain, American ‘Hero’  "John S. McCain III, the disastrous Republican 2008 candidate who suspended his presidential campaign and refused to take the fight to Barack Obama when he had the chance to actually do something for his country, has beclowned himself 
yet again:"...
How sad, because McCain is many times the man that Biden or Obama are. I'd say combined.

Old guard GOP in lock-step with Obama regime  "But right on cue, and even before the filibuster story could gain any media traction, old guard GOP leaders Senator John McCain and Lindsay Graham stepped up to do Obama's bidding by trying to discredit Senator Paul's attempt to expose Obama's lawless regime."

Rand’s Stand Shakes Up the 2016 Landscape  "Even if Paul’s meteoric 13-hour rise doesn’t materialize into a presidential run next time out, it could shape the dynamics of the race with sharpened expectations of a candidate to have the kind of chutzpah and conviction that attract a similar swath of cheering filibuster followers."
