(34,179 posts)Where are the Democrats who are stepping up to speak out against the shredding of our Constitution? Where are the Democrats who are speaking out against this unconstitutional expansion of the Executive Branch power? They are strangely silent.
Yes, Paul is a right wing nut job, but he is the only one stepping up on this issue. Yes, he is a right wing nut job, but even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
When you are more concerned with issues that personalities and political parties, then it becomes much easier to side with Paulon this issue. Doing so doesn't mean that you support everything Paul says or does, it simply means that you agree with him on this issue.
Politics, in the end, is about issues, not about people or political parties.
