My answer to the question is that nothing is off -- off to -- off-limits.
Rand Paul
The Public Record
Rand Paul is an American politician and physician currently serving as the junior United States senator from Kentucky, a position he has held since January 2011. A member of the Republican Party, he is known for his strong libertarian views, advocating for limited government and individual liberties. Throughout his tenure, Paul has focused on issues such as healthcare reform, fiscal responsibility, and civil liberties, often challenging both Republican and Democratic leadership on various policies.
Nothing is off-limits. And we will -- let me finish. The other thing is, is that we will look at each individual program and we will do a step-wise process to this.
I will advocate for Kentucky's interests and submit request for funding through the appropriations process, but he will not request earmarks.
Rand Paul, who talked a lot about earmarks on the campaign trail, about trying to abolish them, calling them a symbol of everything wrong with Washington, he's now being accused of flip-flopping.
Submit request for funding through the appropriations process, but he will not request earmarks.
The Wall Street Journal reporter is a good guy and a -- quote -- 'thoughtful writer,' but he -- quote -- 'misunderstood' the part of the discussion he had about earmarks.
I would not engage in earmarks. I think we need to end earmarks. So, I'm philosophically opposed to earmarks. Earmarks is part of the problem, and we must stop it. I'm very frugal. I'm very conservative. I don't believe in earmarks. I…
There's 10 different titles, you know, to the Civil Rights Act, and nine out of 10 deal with public institutions and I'm absolutely in favor of. One deals with private institutions. And, had I been around, I would have tried to modify that.
I never said that I believed in anything remotely regarding segregated lunch counters. I never said I was for repeal of the Civil Rights Act, which is what Jack said over and over again on Chris Matthews' show.

You know, Jack, you know how we can tell when you're lying? It's when your lips are moving. OK?
When this debate ends, you will notice that I will not be shaking his hand tonight. I will not shake hands with someone who attacks my religion and attacks my Christian beliefs.

You just out-and-out lie because you have nothing to stand on. Run a race as a man. Stand up and be a man, instead of just calling me names.

Step up. Cast aside these attacks on my personal religion. Jack, you should be ashamed of yourself. You should apologize. Have you no decency? Have you no shame?
Now Jack Conway is attacking Rand Paul's faith. Rand Paul keeps Christ in his heart and in the life he shares with his wife and three boys.
Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this legislation. It's called the Fair Sentencing Act. I'd like to rename it, though. I'd like to call it the Slightly Fairer Resentencing Act, because it really makes an attempt to correct a very, very…
What if it was always reported that freedom fighters were killed, as it was when they were our friends and our allies? The whole thing would change. But, no, we call them militants and we call them insurgents. But they were formerly our…
I think we have to deal in the overall policy. In many ways, we follow a schizophrenic type of foreign policy because, one time, they are our best friends, then later on they become our worst enemies. This was true with Saddam Hussein. In…
I would like to address the subject about hostilities. It is true that there are no armies facing each other and shooting and killing each other, no tanks, no conventional type of hostilities. We don't live in a conventional era and we…
