regressive arguments from Barefoot & Progressive

Barefoot & Progressive points to Rand Paul's "friends" in this post.

I (twice) asked whether they were fans of the argument about Barack Obama's friends-- and got no reply.

Actually, Barack's friends are far more troubling-- since he had an intimate back-and-forth relationship with them. Rand has no reciprocal relationship with those cited in the B&P post.

I'm not sure about the strength of the "friends" argument. But in any case, if you like it in Rand's case, you have to embrace it with a full kiss in Barack's case.
