Rand Paul's wife pens letter to Booker following protests, threats against husband
By Brett Samuels - 10/03/18 09:54 PM EDT

The wife of Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Wednesday penned an open letter directed at Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), appearing to blame the Democrat for the threats and protests her husband has faced this week.

Kelley Paul wrote in an op-ed published on CNN that her husband was "besieged at the airport by activists." She indicated that they shouted at the senator, stuck their middle fingers in his face and prevented him from moving to his destination.

She wrote that the protesters had heeded Booker's advice from July in which he urged a nonprofit group in Washington, D.C., to "get up in the face of some congresspeople" rather than being passive about issues they care about.

It really is easy to hate the Democrats. There is nothing too low for them.

This is really bad.... total lack of civility.

The same charge, I.e. total lack of civility, can easily be directed at Trump.

Nothing is too low for our POTUS, either.

For all his flaws, I don't recall that Trump urged people to assault Democrat politicians the way Booker, Waters, et al., have told their fans to "get in the faces" of Republicans.

I expect Rand Paul and his wife have more standing than most to speak out against threats of violence against Senators.

Second in line after Scalise and far from last in line.

Not politicians, but remember this one?

Total lack of civility?

Exaggerate much?

Trump musta really hurt your feelings bad when he vanquished the loser you were supporting in the primary.

Or was it that you got your nose outta joint when no matter how hard you tried convincing your fellow freepers, you failed to stem the rising tide of support at Free Republic for Donald Trump’s presidency, certain you were right about him. Well, you’re batting zero dude.

Don’t bother responding, I won’t answer. I’ve got no respect for you.

Good lord, there can't hardly be one damn bit of that poor horse left, but you insist on dragging it out of the stable over and over.......................and over.
