Yes Paul Constant, we know how much you love the groping criminal TSA and their radiation bath body scanners made by Michael Chertoff. You'd fit right in as an employee.

Maybe he just took an abnormally wide stance in the scanner.

If he properly identified himself as a sitting US Senator from a neighboring state, they really shouldn't be fucking with him. Given his past statements, he may have provoked the situation a bit, but that's the price of elections.

You're gonna start calling us sheeple any minute now because we think Ron Paul's a harmless, well-intentioned political anomaly, aren't you?

"WAKE UP sheeple! Ron Paul and his laissez-faire policies are worse than Hitler!"

Go ahead, lose it completely. It's hard to watch you slowly deteriorate like this.

is the hair in his toupee attached to a metal mesh?

What did Rand Paul think was going to happen when he refused that pat down? He is the enemy of the TSA! Although I have to say that I am surprised that Congress folk have to go through the same security theater that the rest of us do.

@3: "harmless, well-intentioned political anomaly"

The Pauls are none of the above.

@6
Ron Paul is. Or maybe you have some proof of his impact on social, political, or economic policy that you'd like to demonstrate?
8
A States Rights, Segregationist, Pro-Life, Anti-Gay Dixiecrat is not an anomaly.

While security has certainly gone to far, people who set of scanners should be subject to additional screening and one should not be excused from that simply because they are senator.
10
Even with a full body pat down I wouldn't want to get on a plane with either Paul.

Don't get me wrong, Ron Paul would suck as president, but you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. He's pro-choice, and is against a constitutional ban on gay marriage, and is not a dixiecrat. Where the hell do you get your information, Paul Constant?

'Segregationist'? Dude, chill, are you sure you're not losing your mind as well?

I defer back to my comment at #3, given that you're clearly too misinformed to argue with. You can Paul can continue pulling your hair out over non-issues until you've matured a bit. I won't hold my breath.

@11 - But states would have the right to segregate, right? That state's rights thing allows him to wash his hands of anything.

@11: "is not a dixiecrat."

You have no clue what the Dixiecrats believed, apparently.

"He's pro-choice"

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/We_the_Peop… His legislation would essentially repeal Roe V Wade. You're an incredible dimwit.

"is against a constitutional ban on gay marriage"

http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/We_the_Peop… His legislation would essentially allow states to criminalize homosexuality.

"'Segregationist'? Dude, chill, are you sure you're not losing your mind as well?"

He believes that segregation should be legal. http://www.salon.com/2010/05/20/rand_pau…

"During an appearance on MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Show, Paul started by saying that he liked civil rights and opposed discrimination; he even claimed he would have marched with Martin Luther King had he been old enough. However, he suggested that he would seek to end the parts of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that required privately-owned businesses that served the public to desegregate. Just as Paul was misrepresenting his ability to join the 1963 March on Washington (he was born in 1963), he was also attempting the impossible feat of appropriating King’s legacy while arguing for dismantling one of the movement’s most substantive victories."

"You can Paul can continue pulling your hair out over non-issues until you've matured a bit. I won't hold my breath."

You uninformed Paul fans can hold your breath until you expire, you seriously have no clue what you're talking about, you have no clue what legislation he's sponsored, and you have no clue what words come out of his mouth. My god, you're so very stupid.

@11: "Where the hell do you get your information"

Ron Paul's proposed legislation, writings, statements, and official campaign site.

Fun link of the day-

A breakdown of the actual economics behind Ron Paul's claims that we should not have gone to war to free the slaves.

@12: "That state's rights thing allows him to wash his hands of anything"

Washing his hands would indicate that he had negative feelings towards this.

Paul actively believes and advocates that property rights should give every private industry the "right" to discriminate against race, sex, etc., as well as the "right to free association".

While people who believe in a truly free society accept that racism and bigotry will occur, there's a big difference between first amendment rights and encouraging state and private PRACTICE of discrimination, AKA segregation.

Please wait...
