Sen. Rand Paul MD is trying to decide where he stands on the important issue of putting healthcare workers in quarantine regardless of whether they have Ebola symptoms or not. (Remember kids, that's the only time people are infectious: after they're symptomatic). It is truly an ethical dilemma for him, because on the one hand, he is a Libertarian who loves the Freedom (except for ladyparts, which are not free because babbies come first), but on the other hand, he is a "doctor" with a real "license" and everything, and he just wants to keep the public safe from this disease that he knows the CDC isn't telling you everything about.
<em>&lsquo;You know what, you really should be going to the discotheque; you shouldn&rsquo;t be going to the local bar; you shouldn&rsquo;t be going to the local school cafeteria, so I think there are reasonable precautions,&rsquo;</em>
And yet when people with more contagious diseases like the flu get sick, this drip would rather they suck it up than offer them time off with pay from work.
<i>&quot;...the Libertarian in me is sort of horrified at indefinitely detaining or detaining anyone without trial.&quot;</i>
The libertarian in me is horrified that the United States of America is indefinitely holding people in Guantanamo Bay without a trial. I gleefully googled for the Rand Paul quote that said the opposite. Instead I found Rand Paul and I agree on Gitmo. (hangs head in shame)
don&#039;t feel bad. five minute rule still applies when his true heritage wins out and he starts backtracking everything because he knows its going to bring down pappy&#039;s wrath and he knows he&#039;s going to get called a RINO
On the positive side, a survey here in KY shows that only 13% are in favor of letting little Randy run for both his Senate seat and President in 2016 (KY currently prohibits that, but if the R&#039;s take control here tomorrow, they could repeal it) while 33% are in favor of his not running for any office at all.
Everyone wants to win the race to the bottom.

so Bamz won the marathon?
I think we need to see his long form blue ribbon
This ain&#039;t no party, this ain&#039;t no discotheque, this ain&#039;t no foolin&#039; around
<blockquote>&lsquo;You know what, you really should[n&#039;t] be going to the discotheque&#039;</blockquote>
OK Rand, but you really need to either leave the Idioteque, or at the very least let what happens there stay there.

Truly he is the Shimmer of presidential wannabes!
Yup, it&#039;s now perplexing when he says something laudable, because the recoil of crazee is sure to follow...
We got computers, we&#039;re tapping phone lines, I know that that ain&#039;t allowed
