They are attaching their names to her bill. She led, they followed. At least the duo is smart enough to cling to a successful woman!
The endorsement from GOP Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Rand Paul of Kentucky bolstered interest in the measure on Capitol Hill after a version of the proposal was defeated last month as part of another defense bill.

YUP! The TeaBaggin' duo of Rand & Ted offered NO BILL. They can vote against any Dem bill, but to and write a bill of their own, (especially one that doesn't have a TeaBagger agenda) is beyond their ability.
(Example, look at the long list of legislation authored by Daddy Paul... )

Secessionist Rand Paul Staffer Tries to Rewrite His Own History
Former editor of Rand Paul’s Neo-Confederate staffer talks about the Southern Avenger "Jack Hunter asked me to delete columns"
Quoted Text
Long before last’s week Washington Free Beacon story kicked up a two-day media storm, Jack Hunter knew that the Republican establishment was working to out him as a neo-Confederate and a racist, a move he believed could hurt the one-time City Paper columnist’s boss, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul. He’d even sent me an e-mail asking me to remove dozens of posts, ones that he said no longer reflected his current worldview.
While I told him that I would have removed one or two posts — it’s not uncommon for writers to hastily pen a column they later regret — I found the breadth of the request to be excessive, and to be honest, quite cowardly. Doing so, I told Jack, was a repudiation of the very persona he had created as a writer and radio personality. It was a denial of the very views that had made him a local media celebrity and a rising star in the so-called liberty movement, and as such, a slap in the face to all those who had ever supported him. It was best, I said, that if those points of views no longer applied to him, Jack should pen a column detailing how he had changed his mind, but he declined. And frankly, that told me all I needed to know about Jack’s conversion. It was solely for appearances only. It was not heartfelt. It was not true. It was simply to protect his boss, Rand Paul, as he plots a path to the White House in 2016.

The KKK initially were made up primarily of "DixiCrats", White Southern CONSERVATIVE Democrats. The civil rights acts in the early '60s changed all that. Those Southern Conservative Democrats changed parties and joined the ranks of Conservative Republicans.
My post wasn't about KKK history, it referred to present day Southern Conservatives, like Rand Paul's campaign advisor Jack Hunter, alias "the Toxic Southern Avenger".
In today's politics, my graphic is accurate and the Toxic Southern Avenger is a prime example.

Rep. Peter King has responded to speculation that he is considering a presidential bid in 2016. King, who believes his party has failed to properly address issues of national defense, said he is "certainly willing to be out there and be a spokesperson and see where this goes."
"We've got people like Rand Paul, whose main concern seems to be some guy sitting at a Starbucks drinking coffee is gonna get killed by a CIA drone," . "We're becoming isolationist, we should be the party of Eisenhower and Reagan, and be strong on national defense ... So because of all of that people have come, they've asked me, and I'm gonna certainly look at it."

Peter King needs to join the statists in the Democrat Party, along with all the rest of the neocons. They are scratching and clawing trying to stay out of the dust bin of American politics.
At the Races — Roll Call's Politics Blog Enzi Clobbers Cheney in First Public Poll of Primary #WYSEN By Emily Cahn Posted at 12:49 p.m. today
A new poll shows Sen. Michael B. Enzi, R-Wyo., with a considerable lead over his primary opponent, just days after Liz Cheney announced she would challenge him.
Enzi led Cheney, 55 percent to 21 percent, in a survey from Harper Polling, a Republican firm.
Earlier this week Cheney, who is daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, announced she would challenge the three-term Republican.
Enzi also had a high favorability rating of 74 percent in the poll. Cheney had a 45 percent favorability rating.
The poll surveyed 422 likely GOP primary voters via live operator calls on July 17 and 18, and has a margin of error of 4.77 points.
The Wyoming Senate seat is rated a Safe Republican contest by Rothenberg Political Report/Roll Call.
Gotta laugh at box posting a Peter King quote, talk about someone who nobody takes seriously

If the GOP gets it's head out of it's butt and nominates someone like Chris Christie, it might be a race against Hillary. Not much else out there who could even be considered a viable candidate.

Exactly so why all the constant smear attacks and articles, you obviously fear him but I'm starting to think all these "opinion" writers fear him to.
