So he's a hypocrite, just like dear ol' dad.

That's what liberals get for being suckers. And, btw, this liberal likes drones killing Taliban and al-Qaeda bastards. The more, the better.

"Rand Paul became a hero for certain liberals after his anti-drone fillibuster last month."

Paul, unless YOU were one of those who considered him a "hero" for that then can you leave off the hyperbole?
Because someone you disagree with 99% still has 1% of the same opinions as you does NOT make him your "hero".

So, did anyone else get to fly a drone today at UW Engineering Days?

I'm antiwar and shit, but what's the argument against drones per se? All I've heard is applicable to "traditional" methods of blowing buildings up (see jets, "smart" bomb missiles) as well. What gives with being afraid of pilotless planes? Don't they cost less and reduce risk?

I'm a liberal and I never agreed with Rand Paul's opposition to drones.

The RNC can't support drones and the second amendment. They are mutually exclusive. What would the point of a militia be if the government has drones.

When have Ron/Rand Paul fans ever researched their masturbatory fodder outside of memes and catchphrases?

Besides, I think they're too busy sobbing over losing their life savings to Bitcoins to notice anything going on in the outside world.

@3: This is why you shouldn't hinge our fate on "principled" conservatives. They'll always fuck you in the end.

@ 3, you dummy, didn't you even read the Slog thread about that? There were lefties galore singing his praises. (Paul, you should have linked to that instead of Politico.) Delirian, dirac, bleedingheartlibertarian, Cascadian (not Cascadian Bacon), Pol Pot, redemma, Proteus, several others... All taken in. All waving the Rand Paul flag, saying "this will at least get people talking about drones" and "Rand is right on this one."

What do any of you people have to say now?

@8: The RNC traditionally omits the "well-regulated militia" part of the second anyway.

Wouldn't it be cool if Mr. Constant posted stories about Obama being a hypocrite? An so many issues to choose from!

Uhhh, he is a politician, an elected official He tells lies for money. End of story. Those who are surprised are called voters.

TSA has human drones fondling your crotch...
