“What I don't like from the president's administration is this sort of, 'I'll put my boot heel on the throat of BP.' I think that sounds really un-American in his criticism of business. And I think it's part of this sort of blame-game society in the sense that it's always got to be someone's fault instead of the fact that sometimes accidents happen.” ThinkingSometimesFactsHappensValuesGamesSoundPresidentHeardCriticismBlameFaultsConservativeAccidentsAdministrationThroatBootsHeelsSpillsBlame GameConservative ValuesAccidents Happen Author:Rand Paul

“The draft is a monstrous violation of individual liberty, and even a good motive cannot make it otherwise. In a free society no one should be compelled to take up arms, or be forced to kill or risk being killed... But who can blame prospective volunteers from doubting that there is a threat from Iraq?
