Boom! Those are harsh words coming from the always-awesome Brit Hume, who calls lies “whoppers.” His tweet was a hit, and was retweeted 863 times and counting.
@IngrahamAngle I like what @BritHume said about McConnell getting his butt over to the senate floor to #StandwithRand

As Twitchy reported, Sen. McConnell did finally #StandwithRand during the filibuster yesterday.
@brithume McConnell finally showed up….. put in his obligatory 15 minutes of insincere and "me too" tripe. What a RINO

But many Twitter users wondered, would he have done so without being shamed and prodded by Mr. Hume?

Brit Hume gets results! He also had some kind words for Sen. Rand.
Paul filibuster got support by the GOP ldr and whip, the Dem. whip & 1 more Dem. plus numerous GOP colleagues. Not bad for a rookie righty.

Not bad, indeed!
