Rand Paul: “I’m Leaving My Phone at Home” When I Go to GOP Meetings (Video)

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul joked with “CBS This Morning” that he’s not taking his phone with him anymore, after it came to light that the National Security Agency’s was secretly collecting phone records.

“I’ve been jokingly saying I’m leaving my phone at home when I go to Republican leadership meetings because the President does not need to know where I am all day long.”

Paul also blasted Barack Obama over his surveillance hypocrisy.

For the record… FBI requests for records under Patriot Act have increased 1,000% in just four years.
