If that is a direct quote from Paul, I would like to see the article. I would like to pass it on to others.

The problem with “just the tip”, Marco, is that it’s never really just the tip.

I agree with him.
Someone needs to find that Middle Ground and I wish him well on his quest.

I'd join him but I'm a little busy trying to find the Blue Unicorn.

So if Jeb Bush is nominated, we must all vote for Jeb or else Hillary will win?

The same guy who gave Hillary a medal on the eve of the Benghazi attacks?

Not only would I stay home, I'd probably vote for Hillary just to end the pain.

Question:
Right. But it seems what they’re saying is that the Republican Party should stay out of issues like gay marriage.

Paul:
“I think that the Republican Party, in order to get bigger, will have to agree to disagree on social issues. The Republican Party is not going to give up on having quite a few people who do believe in traditional marriage. But the Republican Party also has to find a place for young people and others who don’t want to be festooned by those issues.”

The country is already screwed, when the public is forced to choose between two worthless, degenerate POS candidates like Obama and Romney, who both push faggotry onto the country.

Thank you.
That needs to be stated often and loudly enough for even the GOPe to hear.
Took me a couple of cycles but I finally got over the "Lesser-of-Two-Evils" BS. In the end, you always end up with...EVIL!

Thank you. That is really nasty. I will post elsewhere. Rand Paul disgusts me almost more than any of the other R candidates, because of his dishonesty and pandering. He tries to hide his real views. I wonder how much of the Libertarian Party platform he is on board with. I suspect most if not all of it. But he knows that if he was honest about that, he would never win.

Some of us are most bothered not by those who are against us, but by those who are against us, and pretend that they are on our side, and are operating on the sly, that and that fakes are just a big turn off.

That's a pretty simple question to answer. If Bush wins the primary (which I doubt and won't personally vote for him) who else other than Hillary are YOU going to vote for?

Not only would I stay home, I'd probably vote for Hillary just to end the pain.

I'm confused, are you going to stay home or vote for Hillary???????????

And by either staying home or voting for Hillary, what pain are you attempting to avoid? Sounds to me like you're trying to prolong the pain that all of us have experienced for the past 6 years by another 4 years.........

I would like to think I would lovingly decline to participate in my child’s celebration of a life choice I believe is immoral. Since I won’t cross that bridge, it’s easy for me to say this. I was curious if others had given it much serious thought if it was close to home (a child).

Thanks for your thoughts.

I savor each and every bit of soul-crushing pain and discomfort that those who pushed Romney onto the ticket in 2012 receive.

I don’t forget for a moment Romney’s minions like Stevens and Madden going around trashing Palin and tea-party voices. I don’t forget for a moment Romney’s pro-homo history and his pathetic response to the Chick-Fil-A “buycott.” I don’t forget for a moment the entire corrupt GOP-establishment that pushed him. I’ll happily revel in hell myself just to see them burn.

You either work for good, or evil. Same-sex marriage is evil.

...”There is no middle ground. You are either for it or for homosexual and anything goes marriage”....

That’s right...the fact he’s “trying” to find a way around that indicates it’s not a problem for him either way it goes...and he’ll more than likely go with the flow if he’s in Washington rather than ever oppose it.

What really makes me angry is the election issues are all about sexual issues....social behavior issues....when our country has far far far more serious issues here and on the International stage these candidates should be addressing!....most of all that our Congress is submitting to this administration on everything!

It’s like they know the public doesn’t care about anything but sexual issues.....and results or consequences. It’s disgusting what this nations people have become!

I agree completely. An avowed enemy; you know how to deal with. But someone pretending to be an ally but is rotten inside is infinitely worse.
