(New Incident) Rand Paul's son cited for underage drinking . . .

at Keeneland. Sorry if this has already been posted. This is twice for this young man and I can't help but wonder how this will play into Rand's snuggling up with the Christian Right.

Frankly, the law is stupid. A 20 year old can get killed in a war but cant drink alcohol. Talk about an absurdity.

Remember how they were indifferent to Bristol Palin's out of wedlock child. This was a non story and so will this one.

Baptists. I don't think they will care since it's one of their own, but the R side is much more anti-underage drinnking than the D side.

Has bought the faux Libertarian/Repuke Rand Paul plenty of credit on the religious wingnut card. It'd be spun as a "core family value affirming experience". Besides, they only get deeply outraged if there is a "D" next to someones name or the offender isn't a religious panderer.

ugly little f*cker, ain't he?

Rand has a bit of redness to his nose in that photo of him. Maybe he's been indulging a bit too much lately himself...

So what? He's 20 and he drinks. Most 20 year olds drink...and comments about his appearance are out of line. He can't help he looks like Rand Paul or even that he's related to Rand Paul.

Shit, if I was related to Rand Paul I'd be frequently hammered too.
