From the author " If the Republican Party is serious about winning the presidential election in 2016, they are going to have to admit that a same-sex marriage ban violates natural law, and that the government needs to get out of the bedroom."

From Rand Paul"I think that the Republican Party, in order to get bigger, will have to agree to disagree on social issues," Paul advised. "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."

Yup. And if “Christian” Rand will roll over for homo marriage, he’ll roll over for abortion. If he thinks it’ll get him more votes.

FURP!!

More from the article you quoted:

“If one carefully reads through the Constitution, it becomes apparent rather quickly that the ability to regulate marriage is not one of the powers granted to the federal government. Any power not specifically listed in the Constitution, is then left up to the states, so at the very least, same-sex marriage should be decided by the people of each individual state, not at the federal level.”

Didn’t he just describe Ted Cruz’s position, which by the way, is the same as Rand Paul’s?
