"SNIP....

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) is offering to buy Rep. Ilhan Omar a ticket to Somalia so she will “appreciate America more,” echoing President Trump’s racist statement that the Minnesota Democrat and three other congresswomen should “go back” to the “totally broken and crime infested places from which they came,” the Washington Post reports.

......SNIP"

Wow. When Rand Paul is following the President republicans have hit liftoff.

That libertarian idiot needs to see what a country with no fuctioning government (a libertarian wet dream) is really like.

Ilhan and her family already know what Somalia is like. They fled for a reason. She loves the Constitutional democracy that is the United States and is fighting to protect it from tyrants like Trump, so that America does not suffer the same fate as Somalia, suffering under 28 years of civil war and anarchy, and before that colonization by Italy and the UK.

You are exactly correct that Somalia is the end result of Libertarian wet dreams. Send Paul, Ryan, Amash and the rest of the Libertarian true believers over there. They wouldn't last 24 hours....

To prove how great America is, they always compare it to some of the worst places in the world.

I mean, wow. Yeah, America is better than places run by murderous dictators and suffering from extreme poverty. That's really your standard for how great his country should be? That's just pathetic.

Send every Republican in Congress to any large metro city in America to speak with the regular citizens affected by their policies of austerity. Let them explain cuts in food assistance to kids that gonto bed hungry. Tell families struggling to pay utility bills why they oppose cheaper renewable energy plans and clean drinking water.

Send them in any inner city to find affordable, decent and safe housing. Let them try to find a neighborhood grocery store or a local medical clinic.

They want an American woman to go to a foreign country, but I tellbtheblotbof them are too cowardly to visit an American city.

Ok, I am literally just shaking my head at this guy anymore.

If you want to see a country that embodies Libertarian Party ideals -- low regulation, low taxes, weak central government, minimal government intrusion into daily life -- then Somalia is a wonderful example of what that actually looks like in practice. Other forces always step in to fill the void. And yeah, Mr. Paul (R-Idiot), that result is BY DESIGN. Your corporate masters and mafia masters aren't so innocent and well meaning in what they are promoting. An intelligent person would have figured that out by now.

Rand Paul should send himself on a little fact-finding mission to places like this, he might learn something about what NOT to do in America. About WHY the Libertarian Party doctrines he promotes are the last refuge of useful idiots for the far right.

Second point: in addition to being an absolute idiot, Rand Paul is also a world class asshole, and apparently has little problem throwing in with racists if he thinks it will advance his own fortunes.
