Sins Of The Father

Reason number one why Rand Paul has no conceivable shot at winning the White House in 2016: his dad is a complete lunatic.

An institute named for the father of possible presidential candidate Rand Paul has published a piece saying the Charlie Hebdo massacre, like 9/11, was a false flag operation. The claim comes in piece titled, "Charlie Hebdo Shootings: False Flag?," put online today at the Ron Paul Institute. 

"The Charlie Hebdo affair has many of the characteristics of a false flag operation. The attack on the cartoonists’ office was a disciplined professional attack of the kind associated with highly trained special forces; yet the suspects who were later corralled and killed seemed bumbling and unprofessional. It is like two different sets of people," reads the first paragraph of the piece.

Yes, that's a Weekly Standard link, but if even those guys are calling out Rand publicly for this, it's because out of all the Clown Car '16 squad, the neocons hate Rand Paul the most.  It's not going to take long for Ron Paul's peanut gallery to completely ruin Rand's shot at the White House, and the best part is they think they are helping him.

I really hope that somewhere whichever Democrat goes after Rand's Senate seat next year is paying attention, because should Rand dump his White House bid and work on keeping it, the same opposition playbook should be used.  Ron Paul is 10 pounds of batshit crazy in a 5 pound bag, and unlike 2010, Rand's not going to be able to dodge his father's shadow.
