Rand Paul WTF Moment of the Week.


Kentucky senator and insurgent Republican Rand Paul denounced Voter ID law during a Friday interview with the New York Times, instantly becoming the most prominent GOP opponent against the legislation that is popular within his party.

“Everybody’s gone completely crazy on this voter ID thing,” Paul told the Times before speaking with a group of black pastors in Memphis, TN. “I think it’s wrong for Republicans to go too crazy on this issue because it’s offending people.”

According to the NYT, Paul did not criticize Voter ID for being bad policy, but for offending voters that Paul thinks could swing to the GOP.

You have to carefully parse WTF Randisms. He still thinks kicking Democrats off voting rolls and making it difficult for Democrats to votes is a great idea, he just wants his totally batshit fucking crazy party to tone down the total batshit fucking craziest of their Stop Democrats from Voting laws while he is on the stump trying to convince some Democratic voters to vote for him. After that nonsense is over he will once again support all the batshit crazy stupid vile nonsense his batshit crazy party can think of doing.

TN" won't be his true feelings. He goes whichever way the wind blows. Black pastors, no voter restrictions check. Tea Party, no voting for liberals, check.

And it isn't just Baby Paul you have to be on the lookout for.

Don't you just love the reasonable comments by Speaker Boner on fundraising on Bengazi. Talking Points score! Not!!!!

RP can and will say anything on the stump to get ahead. Just more talking points, no sincerity, no policy.
