Earlier this week, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) slammed President Barack Obama for not doing enough in response to Russian President Vladimir Putin's incursion into Crimea. In a Time op-ed, Paul huffed:
It is our role as a global leader to be the strongest nation in opposing Russia's latest aggression.
Putin must be punished for violating the Budapest Memorandum, and Russia must learn that the U.S. will isolate it if it insists on acting like a rogue nation.
This does not and should not require military action. No one in the U.S. is calling for this. But it will require other actions and leadership, both of which President Obama unfortunately lacks.
he too failed to or ignored the facts maybe i should cc my last post to him and the party of stupid, or was this the beginning misinformation as to who is really doing nothing but not treating their diarrhea of the mouth,
they all eat the same red meat which gives that effect of lock step rhetoric, you can tell when it's phony when they all repeat it verbatim, no individual thought just whatever their FUHRER puts on their plates.
Paul went on to outline a number of steps he would take, were he president, including imposing economic sanctions and visa bans (which Obama has already implemented), kicking Russia out of the G-8, and building the Keystone XL pipeline.
(He did not explain how helping a Canadian firm export tar sands oil would intimidate Putin.) He added, "I would reinstitute the missile-defense shields President Obama abandoned in 2009 in Poland and the Czech Republic." He griped, "The real problem is that Russia's President is not currently fearful or threatened in any way by America's President, despite his country's blatant aggression."
what did he think he was talking in subliminal code trying to slip Keystone in on a international aggression that might evolve into shoot out, that tells you what they really feel is the priority that we ought to pursue, but so far he just named what Pres. already has done might have looked less like a pompous ass had he read something relative to his rant, i'm still roflmao at that thinly veiled shout out for the pipeline, shameless  out of place priority.
please read the last 3 paragraphs of the article and see the circus act of flip flopping
