I don’t know why Rand Paul (or any conservative/libertarian) bothers to go on MSMNC. I understand that the GOP wants to reach out to other votes, but the whack jobs at MSNBC and those who watch it are so locked in to Democrat socialism, they will never change. At least though Rand Paul got a dig in on MSNBC lying about him not support the civil rights act. Check out the following video from Newsbusters:

Have I ever had a philosophical discussion about all aspects of it, yeah, and I learned my lesson: to come on MSNBC and have a philosophical discussion, the liberals will come out of the woodwork and they will go crazy and say you’re against the Civil Rights Act and you’re some terrible racist.
And I take great objection to that. Because, in Congress I think there is nobody else trying harder to get people back their voting rights, to get people back and make the criminal justice system fairer. So, I take great offense to people who want to portray me as something that I’m not.
….I never was opposed to the Civil Rights Act, and I have been attacked by half a dozen people on your network trying to say that I’m opposed to the Civil Rights Act and somehow now I’ve changed.
So, I’m not really willing to engage with people who are misrepresenting my viewpoint on this because I have never been against the Civil Rights Act, I have never said I was against it. So, for people to say that, really they don’t want to have an honest discussion about it…. When your network does 24 hour news telling the truth, then maybe we can get somewhere with the discussion.
