Paul opposed DOMA when it was passed (watch your verb tenses, you misleading one you); he also nixed a lot of other seemingly slam dunk legislation. Because he felt it unnecessary. Turns out DOMA was a paper tiger and only added to the uncertainty. It might have made conservatives OVERconfident, if anything. If governments had kept a minimalist philosophy like Paul believed in, in the first place, we’d never have gotten decisions like Kentucky.
Paul “OPPOSES” DOMA.
Paul is not running for governor of Kentucky, he is a Senator running for President, yet instead of coming out against gay marriage at the federal level, in the military, federal employment, and immigration, Paul came out for gay marriage, and to remove it from the party platform.
You can’t just keep making things up, distorting things, and slipping away to sidetrack clear points.
Ron and Rand I’m sure, see this as a matter for the States.
Unfortunately, nowadays, we probably will not be able to get a national referendum on the definition of Marriage but individual States, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Texas, California should be able to have self-determination on what they want marriage to be and as we all know, judges stiffed California voters.
You have proven that you are a dishonest propagandist for gay marriage and Paul.
"Paul opposed DOMA when it was passed (watch your verb tenses, you misleading one you)"
"By the way you are the distorting and twisting one."
"Document your present-tense accusation; and even there, it’s in keeping with a philosophy of not setting up paper tigers that make conservatives overconfident." "You are insinuating untrue things. Shame on you."
"Also you misread 47, but that isn’t surprising; you misread most things to try to fit everything in your little box."
"DOMA was meant to do that and it got struck down. I’m not sure what else you’d want."
"Back when it was proposed. Paul was a dissenter in a lot of things. "
DOMA was PASSED IN 1996, Paul opposes it today. You have repeatedly lied about Paul on this thread, while repeatedly accusing me of lying about Paul.
You made a very serious and dishonest effort to mislead this thread, you should apologize.
You also continued to protect gay marriage all along, by defending Paul and the libertarian acceptance of gay marriage.
