Look at Kentucky

Hahahaha!  The GOP is going to lose BIGTIME come November, all because they trusted a bunch of know-nothings (read: Teabaggers) to do their work for them.  The GOP has committed one bungle after another.  It's amazing they're still a viable party.  Uh, are they still a viable party?

Rand Paul Remarks Lead Kentucky Legislature To Pass Civil Rights Legislation


(AP) - the Kentucky Senate, reacting to a divisive comment by Republican Rand Paul, has adopted a resolution declaring any form of discrimination to be inconsistent with American values. 

Louisville Democratic Sen. Gerald Neal introduced the resolution Friday during a special session on the state budget. It was adopted without objection in the predominantly Republican chamber.

Neal, Kentucky's only black state senator, said he took personal offense at the comment made last week by Paul, a U.S. Senate candidate, who was criticizing the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Paul said in an MSNBC interview that the federal government shouldn't have the power to force restaurants to serve minorities if business owners don't want to.

Neal said Paul's "extreme belief" has made Kentucky "a laughingstock."
