As Senate Republicans rushed headlong to become a pale imitation of the Democratic Party with a budget vote only a foreign lender could love, Rand Paul decided to take a stand.
The Kentucky senator held up the vote, prompting the usual unwarranted media concern about a shutdown. Despite the nation's history of surviving government shutdowns quite nicely, a panic tends to set in at the merest hint of one, especially among liberals.
This panic prompted Bette Midler to take to Twitter and offer this hot take on Paul's actions:
