Very very few people in Congress do anything but vote along party lines on pretty much everything.
I don't know how you can democrats are principled to a fault with a straight face when you have Nancy Pelosi who is just the Democrat's McConnell.
- colinmhayes 6y agoLmao at thinking anyone who names their kid after Ayn rand could be principled. All the libertarians in congress are fine with raising the deficit when the republicans are in power but cry about fiscal responsibility when democrats are. The democratic party is the party of fiscal responsibility.
- malandrew 6y agoRand is short for Randal. He was not named after Ayn Rand. His full name is Randal Howard Paul. Also, which libertarians have been fine raising the deficit? They are pretty much the only ones that consistently argue against it whether the budget increase comes from Republicans or Democrats.
- colinmhayes 6y agoLmao at actually believing Randal paul isn't named after Ayn Rand. I see you've fully embraced the cognitive dissonance that has made republicans so successful. I hope democrats can do the same. I'll give credit to Ron though. That was a very principled thing to do, respect.
