Who on earth is so very vile by ]nature that they could trigger the use of 21 barf bags?  Considering the state of the Republican party, I\u2019m sure there must be several, but one very obvious choice is Idiot, Son of Idiot, Named after Idiot, aka Rand Paul.  I promise to be merciful.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"0225rand-paul\"Senator Rand Paul, of Kentucky, seems to have no problem contradicting himself. The self-proclaimed "constitutional conservative" is typically lost in libertarian thought leading him to make inflammatory sexist, racist and overbearingly hypocritical comments on nearly every issue he faces. Whether he’s attempting to police women’s bodies, ignoring police brutality for stingy tobacco taxes, or speaking out against vaccines and posting himself receiving booster shots only days later, Ron Paul’s son is one politician you can unabashedly hate or enjoy laughing at.<\/p>\n

1. When Paul spoke out <\/strong>against vaccines<\/a><\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

"I have heard of many tragic cases of walking, talking normal children who wound up with profound mental disorders after vaccines.Rand Paul \/ Twitter<\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> When he backed <\/strong>voter ID laws<\/a><\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

"I don’t think there’s a problem with showing your ID, but I do think there’s a problem with Republicans saying, ‘Hey, our big issue for the campaign is going to be voter ID,’ because what it creates is — a lot of African-Americans understandably remember the ’40s and ’50s in the South, and they remember suppression of the vote."<\/p>\n

3. When he spoke out against <\/strong>government assistance<\/a><\/strong>:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cAs humans, yeah, we do have an obligation to give people water, to give people food, to give people health care."<\/p>\n

\u201cBut it\u2019s not a right because once you conscript people and say, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s a right,\u2019 then really you\u2019re in charge, it\u2019s servitude, you\u2019re in charge of me and I\u2019m supposed to do whatever you tell me to do\u2026 It really shouldn\u2019t be seen that way."\u2026<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I promised mercy, and I delivered.  So far you should have used up only three barf bags.  Chick through to use the other 19.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
