Who is more "un-American"? Rand Paul or Obama?

Welcome to the new McCarthyism.
The tea party wunderkind calls the president out for being mean to BP



Rand Paul, Tea Party hero and Republican candidate for senator in Kentucky, is the gift that won't stop giving. His latest heard-round-the-world soundbite:

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



Paul went on to say that "maybe sometimes accidents happen." People die, ecoystems get ravaged, beaches turn into tarball-infested wastelands. Big deal. Cut BP a break!

2. Wow. Defending incompetent greedy dunderheads.
I'm sure Kentucky will adore him for it. No beachfront property in KY, right?

3. Rand Paul might be more comfortable in China than in the U.S.
everything goes for business in China. The U.S. has been a world leader in worker and environmental protection.
