Excellent move on the part of one of the few politicians in America that actually supports liberty. The fact that these drone assassinations are being waged by a state that at one point stood for personal freedom is an absolute disgrace. Every straight, freedom loving guy should unequivocally be against these extra judicial drone murders, a policy that started in the Bush admin and has been continued by our current nobel peace prize winning president.

The following NYT article is a must read. It discusses the current american policy of extra judicial assassination and states that these guys are plotting the assasination of several teenage girls.

The mug shots and brief biographies resembled a high school yearbook layout. Several were Americans. Two were teenagers, including a girl who looked even younger than her 17 years.

bacon I'm all for what he's protesting against.

However, how does this help him achieve what he's looking for? Unless this will directly prevent these drones it just sounds like a publicity stunt. We should save our praise for when he acts.

If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.

Brings national attention to the issue. That is a measure of action, in itself.

well i wouldnt go as far to call it a publicity stunt. its more like a political protest or political disobedience by delaying the nomination. too many congressmen are complicit with gutting of the constitution and what he is doing is drawing attention to that by filibustering the nomination.

I watched large chunks of it today.

It was fucking inspirational.

As of 4:15 Eastern time, he was still going, with some Senators coming in and asking questions to give the guy a break.

I don't agree with everything Rand Paul believes, but his view about the sanctity of the constitution, his understanding of our debt situation, and his belief in individual liberty -- plus the no-bullshit, clarity of his thought -- makes him incredibly admirable.

That's a little like saying, talking to a girl doesn't matter--the only thing that counts is the literal act of putting your dick in her.

Rand paul also has a better chance with the female demographic that is into looks. Ron is a fossil at this point and I doubt older people in the future will be elected president. It would be great if they were since they tend to be more solid in beliefs.

They need to fill up in the chamber and applaud him when he's done with this. Been watching for about an hour now, and he hasn't lost his train of thought or paused greatly in any discernible way. Pretty damn impressive.

Hour 8

“I will speak until I can no longer speak,” Paul said. “I will speak as long as it takes, until the alarm is sounded from coast to coast that our Constitution is important, that your rights to trial by jury are precious, that no American should be killed by a drone on American soil without first being charged with a crime, without first being found to be guilty by a court.”

And yet Obama would receive more adulation from the media and the elites for farting off a teleprompter.

I'm a follower of Ron Paul and I thought Rand Paul wasn't as committed as his father. He's proving me wrong and that's good.

This is very impressive. Why don't other politicians have the balls to do this? He's still going strong.

Extremely impressive. This is the mettle I like to see from politicians, standing up for uncompromisable values. This guy's on my radar from here on out.

Edit: Does anyone know if a politician filibustering gets to take bathroom breaks?

He is allowed to take questions. But...

No bathroom breaks.

No sitting.

He cannot leave the floor.

He can go for as long as his body can stand and words are coming out of his mouth.

Respect.

I see fellow Republic Mike Lee is giving him a breather for a little bit. I was also wondering if Rand Paul gets to sit during the question. I guess not.

Yea, seriously. Wtf is happening to America. First ever drone strike of American citizen abroad without trial. Now first ever drone strike on an American citizen ON US soil without trial is on the horizon.

I wonder what's next.

I've had a mixed opinion about Rand Paul, but have to give him credit for this. One man putting himself out there to do the right thing.
