Rand Paul actually said...

"Madison wrote that the executive branch is the branch most prone to war, and, therefore, was studied--we gave that power to the legislature."

"What should surprise and worry us, though, is that it seems like they also argue that they have virtually unlimited power to initiate and to execute war, and that is where the real problem comes here."

"Let us not say that it is not silly. It is silly."

"What we need to do is have less silly research so we take our precious dollars that we have and they are spent more wisely."
