He Also Would Have Tripped Paul Revere's Horse

A good friend pointed out to me that Kentucky’s U.S. Senate candidate Rand Paul chastised President Obama as “un-American” for criticizing the company whose oil spill is currently gushing into the Gulf of Mexico. That company of course being “British Petroleum.” BILL
