Medea Benjamin, March 7: “progressives should Stand with Rand” [View all]

[ucrdem]

That's Rand Paul (T), Kentucky's be-wigged junior Senator. Medea, writing in Mondoweiss.net:

While progressives have all sorts of reasons to dislike Rand Paul’s Tea Party, small government libertarian views, killer drones is one issue on which progressives should make common cause with Paul and his growing legions of supporters.

After all, it’s not about the messenger but the message. And compared to the Democratic Senators who have, with few exceptions, remained either silent or support of President Obama’s killer drones, Rand made a heroic stand. In gratitude, progressives should “Stand with Rand.”

Nothing personal but progressives do not stand with teabagging obstructionists and methinks Medea has quaffed one too many pink martinis.
