I Have Ten Dollars

[lame54]

I have ten dollars.

Rand Paul said to me "I want your ten dollars."

Since he has no right to my ten dollars I said "No."

"Okay", he said, "give me three dollars."

Again I said "No."

He then asked me why I was unwilling to compromise. He said that since he was willing to give up 7 of the ten dollars I could surely give up 3.

I told him that none of the ten dollars were on the bargaining table.

He then threw a tantrum where he held his breath and wet his pants. He stormed out yelling "I'm telling everybody that you are unwilling to compromise."

What a dick that Rand Paul is.

4. You forgot one part. Some time ago, you already gave him 10 dollars. He said

that was all he wanted. (Sequestration extortion $$$.)

Now he wants another 10.

13. There was another good one a few days ago...

I don't recall it verbatim, but went something like this:

R: "I want to burn your house down."

D: "No."

R: "Okay, how about just the second floor?"

D: "No."

R: "How about the garage?

D: "No."

R: "YOU WON'T COMPROMISE!"
