Rand Paul Hoax
Retractions abound from a very funny tale about Rand Paul that has been circulating throughout the week:
The woman who sparked a national firestorm by recounting Rand Paul’s
youthful indiscretions to GQ magazine is now clarifying her account: She says she was not kidnapped nor forced to do drugs by Paul.But she reiterated other odd aspects of her earlier story, including her claim that Paul and another college friend blindfolded her, tied her up, and told her to smoke pot and worship the “Aqua Buddha,” even if they didn’t physically force her to do these things.
(Slate: Racist ‘Rand fan’ actually Obama supporter)
The woman — who was made available to me for an interview by GQ reporter Jason Zengerle in response to the Paul campaign’s denunciations of his article — said she didn’t mean to imply that she was kidnapped “in a legal sense.”
“The whole thing has been blown out of proportion,” she told me. “They didn’t force me, they didn’t make me. They were creating this drama: `We’re messing with you.’”
The woman said that much of the subsequent coverage of her allegations missed a key nuance: As a participant in a college ritual, where lines between acquiescence and victimization are often blurry, she was largely playing along with the notion that she was being forced to follow Paul’s orders.
“I went along because they were my friends,” she said. “There was an implicit degree of cooperation in the whole thing. I felt like I was being hazed.”
That characterization of events supports Paul’s claim that, as he told Fox News yesterday, “No, I never was involved with kidnapping. No, I never was involved with forcibly drugging people.”
Regarding Rand Paul’s ability to dominate women, this comes across as quite disappointing. Also, the part about the “Aqua Buddha” is about as ridiculous as a bunch of Yalies mastrubating in coffins, or the “most faggy God-damned thing” Richard Nixon or David Gergen could ever imagine.

You’ve crossed the line! Your support of Rand Paul further is more proof of you being racist, but cutely quoting Nixon shows that your also a homophobe, too! Your probably also a closeted homosexual like Lindsey Graham!
If the GOP wants to win elections, it must triangulate between the Tea Party and mainstream Republicans by emphasizing issues that create a broad, big-tent consensus like national security defending our global interests, more free trade, and deregulation as a means of reversing Obama’s blatant slide toward socialism. If the GOP allows itself to be defined by the Tea Party, it runs the risk of (perhaps wrongly) being characterized by tin-foil hat, crackpot conspiracy theories.
The worship of Aqua Buddha and Moloch enshrines materialism and is detrimental to the family.

Are you kidding? Per the norms of the ’80s they were treating their female teammate as they would have their male teammates – by hazing them, at least that is what the story seems to portray. If they had ONLY hazed male team mates, THAT would have seemed sexist and as if they weren’t really letting the females into ‘the group’.
What a weird way to approach a fun college incident.
JUST MORE SHILLS TRYING TO RUIN SOMEONE,THIS ARTICLE IS A EVEN WORTH SPEAKING OF.THE LEFT,RIGHT PARADIGM IS A JOKE,RAND IA A INDEPENDENT,BUT THE CROOKED SYSTEM IS SET UP ONLY TO HAVE TWO PARTY’S PARTICIPATE IN THE DEBATES,IT’S TOO BAD CLINTON AND DOLE MADE A DEAL AFTER ROSS PERRO SPANKED BOTH PART’S AND GOT 19.8 % OF THE VOTE.THE LEAGUE OF WOMAN RAN THE DEBATES AT THAT TIME,WHEN THE DEAL WAS MADE IT WENT BACK TO THE SCAMS OF THE TWO PARTY PARADIGM.
YOU are correct in your comment third,spin these days is a joke,we need serious people,in these serious times.The two party system is set up to fail,and the last six decades proves this.The n.w.o. is running this country and has for ever,the eugenicist,the socialist,try to call themselves progressives,by definition,they are true socialist,just study there existence over the forty years.
I read some of the first post,you are correct third,and truth,the two party paradigm is strong and running wild.
I’ll bet it really makes them mad to retract their story. The man power to dig this B S up and then spin it into major fellony’s must have been staggering to us tax payers.I pray they never find anyone he might have given a joint. I can see the headlines RAND PAUL AND THE CANIBUS CONNECTION.
