Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) took to Twitter today to begin airing a lengthy stream of his grievances. Here are some of the highlights:
In honor of Festivus, tomorrow I will be airing my grievances, mostly against Washington. Check back here in the morning.

Minor grievance: I can never remember when to move my car for DC street cleaning.

People who think shrinking our party and getting rid of those with more libertarian ideas will help us win elections.

I have a small grievance — with people who think my hair is not real.
