49. I am a true libertarian hater

And I have no illusions abotu Rand's motives. Not only does he want to leapfrog ahead of Rubio, he wants to appeals to the same mouth breathing, Tea Party Scum that got him in.

Now, that still does not mean that he cannot be the proverbial busted clock that is right twice a day. In this case, Obama has let the clock run to midnight, because we cannot let the sort of crap brennan did stay in play, even if...yes ESPECIALLY if a president Hillary or Joe is in, because the pressure will be there to be tough on terrorism as a means of being a leftist (in other words, to throw red meat to the AIPAC and MIC types.)
