Did Durbin (Dem) just change his stance to that in support of Paul, right before my eyes?
Did I hear right or am I tired.
Even after over 12 straight hours, and likely exhaustion, there is no debating Rand Paul!

He is showing some wear, but not as bad I thought. He's trying to rally and get back into talking pts, and about to get back on a roll I hope.

The other senators wait till 11:30 to get started appearing. Really? They better carry his load for a while longer!

What?!

I muted it... I needed an ear break... He was spilling ear poison. I had to stop it... it burned.

He was converted? Rand Paul is a Jedi?

ugh, him talking about 9/11 and him saying GWB would've gotten a call to 'shoot' down one of these planes...

he got it wrong...



Yep, I agree. Rand spotted it, smart man he is.


And the dude that is up there now, just admitted that they did go to
dinner with Obama. Thats a real shame that Obama is so closed off
to this, such transparency.

/sarcasm

Damn be my bandwidth constrictions (I am tethering) and it is time to listen in to this til the adult beverages wear thin.

What is Senator Ron Johnson talking about? Who cares I suppose as long as he keeps it up I suppose.

Huzzah Tim Brown! Smart statements......

Time to put down our differences, time to put down our partisanship and work together... Me thinks they are finally starting to get it

So why didn't he send a message back with the answer? Instead he sending them back with focus on financials, Rand you better get this back on track. He's is sending in distractors. Even though those same senators support the question.

I get excited anytime there is a filibuster, but I blame Mr. Smith goes to Washington for that. Though- this is amazing. I love seeing someone stand up for the people.

Yes Durbin was converted and even smiled and thanked Rand Paul in the end. I liked your comment about him being a Jedi. Rand Paul should be president.

Tim Scott talking now, S. Carolina Sen. You just know the MSM will tear him apart tomorrow...they'll be calling him an Uncle Tom under their breath. A traitor to Obama.

He speaks with so much conviction and dignity....

Ok, well I will take to Twitter with it.
Rand is probably not swayed....this is like a battle....the way
warrior men think once they are in this deep its for keeps.

This is so insane, I don't think a lot of us don't understand the impact this will have for the liberty movement. Everybody wants to #standwithrand right now.

Wow, I'm just so FLOORED by what is going on. As a Ron Paul/liberty movement supporter, I would've never expected this to happen.

WOW!

I mean really, he, the prez, took a bunch to dinner and didn't address the filiblizzard. And only talked about budgets. He could have drafted any kind of basic statement and sent it back. shakes head. Well Rand has got to hold this till at least the morning, hope he hangs in ok.

we all are shocked... I am very pleased with Rand's work today. Remember last year when people said he fratured the liberty movement by endorsing Romney?

Well this fixed it and THEN SOME!

Sacrifice a pawn to win the game. he made his chess moves last year, and now its playing out in his favor and he's in control of it now.

if there was a moment where Rand Paul had to step into his fathers shoes and fill the void he left behind... this is it, and its big... i dont know how big yet, but this is pretty big!

Proud of the guy, way to teach America, and way to show the administration how its supposed to work. Brilliant move IMO.

If Rand succeed's will TPTB resort to a false flag to try and overcome the resistance to the drones?
