To absolutely no one’s surprise, Rand Paul announced today that he’ll be the latest right wing loon to pitch his dunce’s cap into the ring. He’s going to “Take America Back” from some unnamed entity that has apparently stolen it.

And of course, God is on his side.

Pitching himself as a different kind of Republican, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Tuesday officially announced he’d seek the GOP nomination for president.

“Join me as together we seek a new vision for America,” he continued. “Today, I announce with God’s help, with the help of liberty lovers everywhere, that I am putting myself forward as a candidate for president of the United States of America.”
