RAND PAUL VS. KING BARACK I
'Having a king is why we fought the American Revolution.'
January 14, 2013. Rand Paul on Obama's gun control Executive Order.
"I'm against having a king. I think having a monarch is what we fought the American Revolution over and someone who wants to bypass the Constitution, bypass Congress -- that's someone who wants to act like a king or a monarch. I've been opposed to executive orders, even with Republican presidents. But one that wants to infringe on the Second Amendment, we will fight tooth and nail. And I promise you, there'll be no rock left unturned as far as trying to stop him from usurping the Constitution, running roughshod over Congress. And you will see one heck of a debate if he decides to try to do this."

He needs to take his ass back to Israel where he belongs,, F*cking TRAITOR !!

My guess is that it's part of the CBN studios - Christian Broadcast Network - Pat Robertson is a strong supporter of Israel.

Actually he has the opposite reputation - of being anti-Israel - and it's one of the reasons he just took a trip there.

"Part of the reason I am here is to show that I am not anti-Israel," Paul told evangelical leaders who accompanied him on the trip. "There is this perception out there that because I'm in favor of cutting foreign aid I am not a friend to Israel…But there is more than one way to be a friend to Israel."
You cannot serve two masters...I have ZERO allegiance to Israel and neither should he. WTF! And he is purported to be running for president in 2016. Not with that flag would I vote for him...
As I explained already in a comment above, the flag is either in the CBN studios or somewhere in the Senate where the interview was conducted. In reality, Rand Paul is probably the least pro-Israel person in the entire Senate.

Kevin. Rand Paul wants to be President. It is impossible to be President of the US without showing some common courtesy to Israel. He went there to appease his critics. As I said, you would be hard pressed to find anyone else in the Senate who is as negative about Israel as Rand Paul. You're criticizing him, yet he's your best hope for reducing Israel's role in America. Seems somewhat strange to me.
Rand Paul is not pro jewish so calm down your jew er y!
Having said that, I did like what he said. We do not need a King!
Since DB punched the nest,I going to knock it to the ground.
No American Christian in any way can back any Non-Christian Jew (Israel). They do not believe that Jesus is the Lord & Savior. All Jews that don't accept Jesus as their Savior , ARE GOING TO HELL! Don't argue with me Christians. Argue with your God.

* Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) criticized New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) over his recent comments about the National Rifle Association and his pressure on Congress to fund Hurricane Sandy relief efforts. “I think criticizing the Second Amendment movement and the over-the-top ‘give me my money’ stuff, ‘I want all sixty billion now or I’ll throw a tantrum,’ I don’t think that’s going to play well in the Republican primary,” Paul told conservative radio show host Laura Ingraham. Both Paul and Christie are viewed as potential 2016 presidential candidates.
Once again, not only are Rand and his fellow tea party knuckleheads unabashedly ignorant about U.S. History, they are determined to follow the path of their fellow conservatives and end up on the WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY.
In a Democracy, landslides & mandates aren't needed:Majority wins/ Minority loses.

Good thing America was designed to be a Republic, it is ashame so many want to subvert us to a "Democracy" which in the end is nothing more than mob rule...
The chief characteristic and distinguishing feature of a Democracy is: Rule by Omnipotent Majority. In a Democracy, The Individual, and any group of Individuals composing any Minority, have no protection against the unlimited power of The Majority. It is a case of Majority-over-Man.
In both the Direct type and the Representative type of Democracy, The Majority’s power is absolute and unlimited; its decisions are unappealable under the legal system established to give effect to this form of government. This opens the door to unlimited Tyranny-by-Majority.
A Republic, on the other hand, has a very different purpose and an entirely different form, or system, of government. Its purpose is to control The Majority strictly, as well as all others among the people, primarily to protect The Individual’s God-given, unalienable rights and therefore for the protection of the rights of The Minority, of all minorities, and the liberties of people in general. The definition of a Republic is: a constitutionally limited government of the representative type, created by a written Constitution--adopted by the people and changeable (from its original meaning) by them only by its amendment--with its powers divided between three separate Branches: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. Here the term "the people" means, of course, the electorate.

The president dissembled, talking again (he repeated this at least three times by my count) about how Congress had authorized all the spending and how we must now “pay our bills.” But as Garrett noted, the president had a different view of the debt ceiling when he was an Illinois senator and voted against raising it. In 2006, he said, “The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure.” Except when he’s the leader, then it’s someone else’s failure.
