Eugene Robinson on tea party, libertarian, GOP KY Senate candidate Dr. Rand Paul:

“Sarah Palin accused reporters of practicing “gotcha” journalism in seeking to elicit Paul’s views.

Veteran and Bronze Star winner Representative Patrick Murphy, D-PA on Don’t Ask Don’t Tell DADT:

Responding to claims that openly gay soldiers would hurt unit cohesion, Murphy argues: “Straight men and women in our armed forces, this argument asserts, aren’t professional enough to serve with gay troops while doing their jobs. As a former Army officer, that is an insult to me and, more important, to my fellow soldiers still serving — gay and straight alike.”
