KY-Sen: Paul calls criticism of BP 'un-American'

Is this guy for real?

Taking another unconventional stand, Kentucky's Republican Senate nominee Rand Paul criticized President Barack Obama's handling of the Gulf oil spill Friday as putting "his boot heel on the throat of BP" and "really un-American."  [...]

"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,'" Paul said in an interview with ABC's "Good Morning America." "I think that sounds really un-American in his criticism of business."

Well, sure. Because BP is a blameless victim.

Rand really is the gift that keeps on giving ... barely three days since he won the nomination and he's come out in favor of allowing discrimination based on skin color, in opposition of the Fair Housing Act and the Americans With Disabilities Act.

It seems that the idiocy of this candidate can best be described as developing ... stay tuned.

Please support Rand Paul's Democratic opponent, Jack Conway: he's a good guy, he needs our help, and he can win.
