The Jellyfish in the Senate
So Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham are dumping on Rand Paul for pulling a "publicity stunt"? I am not particularly a Rand Paul fan, but at least he was exposing John Brennan for the danger that he would be as head of the CIA and having the courage to force an answer from the King's counsel that His Majesty won't drone U.S. citizens on U.S. soil. What were Messrs. McCain and Graham doing while this was happening? Why eating lamb chops with His Imperial Majesty. That strategy has certainly worked well over the last 4 years to make the Senate a bastion for robust discussion of the enormous problems facing America. Democrat Ron Wyden showed more guts by spelling Rand Paul during the filibuster than the majority of the Republican senators. The House is at least trying to lead, if only in fits and starts. A Republican in the Senate tries it and gets brickbats from many his own brethren. If these guys played on a team it would be the Manila Folders! It is definitely time for a change in the Republican members of the Senate.
