96. Well, either he's right, or Democrats were wrong when Bush was president.

The silence of the 'left' since Bush left office on human rights issues has been deafening. Shameful really.

I don't care who is saying it, giving the government the authority to kill anyone, especially Americans on American soil without due process is so glaringly wrong it is astounding to see anyone calling themselves a democrat, even considering condoning it. It is un-Constitutional, it was when Bush was proposing it and it's amazing how wrong becomes right depending on who is in office, no, it's tragic.

By remaining silent on these issues, Democrats have opened the door to someone like Paul to step through and do what I know I expected Democrats to do by helping to get them elected.

Now cue the voices desperately trying to defend these policies. It's not working, all over the internet today, Paul is being praised, mostly by Progressives, for what Democrats should be receiving the praise for.

To be afraid to stand up for what is right because you might step on some toes here, is cowardice of the worst kind. I am very leery of anyone who claims to be a Democrat supporting Bush policies. They wouldn't have dared during the Bush years.

Finally, it has nothing to do with Paul, but using him as a distraction, riling up emotions of democrats who naturally oppose all Republican ideas, is a ploy being used to blind people to an issue that was and should still be a huge issue for Democrats.
