I already know what you’re thinking: this title is such a gross understatement! The original title was going to be “Is It OK For Me To Kick Rand Paul’s Ass Now?” but I decided against actual threats of violence directed toward a politician. I have enough problems without the FBI after me. It’s just that it seems like every time Rand Paul opens his mouth, he says something outrageous enough to make me want to give him some free dental work with my fist, elbows and feet. On top of all of his talk of businesses being able to discriminate against people and his ties to white supremacists, he’s now comparing his Tea Party private business struggle to that of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Frederick Douglass.
This guy is a dick. Plain and simple.
On one hand, I am disheartened to see that a person like this is considered a viable candidate for office by a lot of people in the modern era of politics. However, I guess having racist individuals hide their spirited middle-aged white angst behind Teabagger rhetoric is better than having those same people sic dogs on me and spray me with giant fire hoses. Basically, I am left with one option when it comes to people like Rand Paul: make fun of them the moment they start talking out the side of their asses and call them on their bullsh*t. I mean, it’s the American way!
The sad thing is, with all the free publicity Rand Paul is getting with all of his ass-backwards rhetoric, he’s probably going to with the election in Kentucky. I hope I’m underestimating the good people of that state, and they pleasantly surprise me on election day. However, you know how the old saying goes: “all press is good press.” Even the press where you call the guy a jackass in the subject line.
