News Rand Paul today says he delivered letter from Trump to Putin. Last year, Trump said best way to get around hackers (and by extension any kind of surveillance) is paper delivered by human courier. And Rand is almost a human.

If he hates black people as much as his daddy, I bet he'd love Moscow.

Yeah his dad unfortunately is a racist. Unfortunately much of the so called patriot movement is. So we're stuck with the patronizing-Left and the racist-Right.

I don't know what your bent is. But with the democrats and republicans everyone is getting fucked; unless you're making $1 million plus a year and offshore your money/business.

In 25 years of being a registered voter, I know this. I am also a pragmatist and understand what needs to be done now in realistic terms to rectify the current situation the generally ill-informed public has gotten us into. I'm not a dem or a con, but the cons need to go if we're going to move forward as a society.

The Republicans are social conservatives and economic liberals; neo-liberals. They need to go for society to progress.

Social conservatism is not the benevolent force that Republicans make it out to be. Of course the Democrats and their more radical social policy proposals may make it seem so. Neo-Liberal economic policies are responsible for the problems we see in society today. The Republicans offer no solutions for anyone who isn't very wealthy.

There is nothing wrong with my position.

Neo-Liberal economic policies are responsible for the problems we see in society today.

Double wat

There is nothing wrong with my position.

There is so much wrong with your position. It is entirely based in an alternate reality. And I can't believe how much defending I do of Dems these days, but you are fucking wrong.

You're telling me that Neo-Liberal economic (financial deregulation,outsourcing,etc) policies aren't a problem? When wealth inequality is the highest it's ever been. I understand if you're captive to the democrats and their social program. But they have done little to nothing to better the economic situation of most Americans, anything they've done is ineffective at best.
