That means government should stay out of forcing businesses to cater to the sodomites.

Hardly a surprise.

Simpson has long been a degenerate POS.

This is the Alan Simpson of Simpson/Mazzoli.

The law that flooded the country with 5 million illegals-turned-citizens and killed the GOP in California.

Every republican was a conservative when Reagan was president. Most, like Alan here, became 'kinder and gentler' as soon as RWR retired.

“I’m a Republican libertarian,”

I often call myself a small ‘l’ libertarian.

though I am too conservative to be a libertarian and too libertarian to be a conservative.

suffice it to say I am a large ‘C’ Constitutionalist.

Right. Once you get government involved you are opening pandora’s box.

The debate will never end and gays will always demand more “rights”. Government should just stay out or the damage will be irreversible. There should be no laws even mentioning the word gay, faggot or homosexual.

maybe he lost it because Simpson-Bowles got ignored ...apocalyptic ramifications too much to bear so run to the left so you’re in line for the lifeboats.

Any takers? Just squeezing out a thought.

Specter of inevitable economic catastrophe can really mess people ( who truly understand its inevitable) up.

[singing] you may say he's a RINO, but he's not the only one...
Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.

With all due respect, libertarianism is about enforcement, not morality.

Government should just stay out?

I bet your happy as hell that DOMA and DADT have been repealed, aren’t ya?

I bet you wish FedGov would butt out of marriage too letting the State allows quuer marriages too, if they want.

Tells us. Are you for abortion too?

<==== DUmp is that way.

Quite wrong.

Libertarianism is about UNENFORCEMENT. Bordering on immoral anarchy.

“The party’s basic core is, government out of your life and the right to be left alone.”

I don't see anything inherently wrong with that.

“Whether you’re gay or lesbian or straight, if you love someone and you want to marry them, marry them,” Simpson, of Wyoming, says in the spot.

What about my sister? What not, HATER?!?

I always thought he was a little squirrely.

Maybe he had one inserted.

Eh....Simpson likes to hear himself talk. He sits in his house and reads the dictionary out loud.

Not a “conservative”. Republicans left the rails some time ago.

Government can’t ban gay marriage. Every ban is getting struck down by the courts. Right now government is promoting and encouraging gay marriage.

If you want government to stay involved you are either for gay marriage or you are delusional about what’s going on.
