Who knows what you are trying to say, it sure isn’t Rand Paul’s campaigning on gay marriage.

That’s Paul’s general idea.
Call him mad, call him bad, call him sad, but he’s the only one I’ve seen who wants to take the bloat by the horns. Could it be he’s wiser than the rest, although having difficulty explaining how?

He says he wants to leave it ALONE. With your two dimensional thinking you contort that into beckoning it on.

Only months after the Romney/Obama election, and you are already using the hail Mary ‘the rino/libertarian is better than the democrat’ argument.
We are years away from that weird form of promoting Paul, making any sense.
There is no reason for any conservative to be doing anything other than dismissing the incoherent Paul at this moment.

He says he wants to leave it ALONE. He is running for president, now that Obama just created gay marriage at the federal level, Paul "wants to leave it alone", that means that he and you are pro-gay marriage.
Let's oppose gay marriage, not support it.

I FIRMLY believe can get our country A MUCH SMALLER government the social issues will take care of themselves!!! The problem is one man, one vote, social liberalism creates more big government voters.
Social conservatism breeds more conservative, limited government voters.

Social liberalism is how the government got so big and so much control, the only people voting against liberalism and big government, are the social conservatives.
The more society breaks down, the more people want to vote for more government and more welfare and short term gains.
If you want government control and the feds in your life, then keep fighting against social conservatism, it has worked for the left for 50 years.

What I'm trying to tell you, is that social liberalism doesn't make people start voting for small government, it makes them vote for MORE big government, more welfare, more social programs, the left has known that for 50 years, it is why they love social liberalism, it creates more of their kind of voters and it REDUCES the number of limited government voters.
Rand Paul can claim to for small government, but he supports politics that increase the size of government.
Have you seen this voting chart on how people vote left or right?
It is the social conservatives/religious who are the old fashioned, limited government, traditional American voters, not social liberals, social liberalism creates liberal voters.

And he also won this years Conservative Political Action Conferences straw poll.
The same way every Paul has won the CPAC poll and online poll, by stuffing the ballot box in an attempt to distort the picture concerning their popularity.

See #12. The ACU disagrees. Maybe you are not a real conservative.
Yea, the ACU calls a lot of people conservative that aren't conservative. They are the least reliable "conservative" polling organization out there in spite of their name as evidenced by weekly comparisons done by cotton.

But he has the leave it to the states position that most have adopted on gay marriage, which is...tolerable.
How is that tolerable?
It's a sham and a scam!
It's a scam because Rand Paul, and every politician pushing this ploy, knows that position is handily defeated by the "Equal Protection Clause" of the 14th Amendment which is being used RIGHT NOW by Federal Courts everywhere to overturn State Level Constitutional Amendments against Gay Marriage.

undying love for illegal aliens
Nonsense. Get a grip.
Here are the links, from last year, where Rand Paul clearly lays out his own Amnesty plan for 2 million illegals per year, based on a "Certification" from a Pro-Amnesty congress that the border is "secure". No Fence, No E-Verify, No punishments for ID Fraud, and all the other misdemeanors and felonies committed by the Undocumented Democrats he wants to pardon.

Rand Paul calls on conservatives to embrace immigration reform (March 19, 2013 Article)

Would you vote for Paul if it was he against Hitlery?
The proper reply, in all such nonsense moral dilemmas, is too vote with your morals, with your principles.
When someone shows he is not trustable by doing the following:
1. Supporting policy that downplays social issues.
2. Defining a policy that is simply just Amnesty
3. Supporting the GOP-E over the Tea-Party (McConnell over Bevin)
The only course of action to an actual conservative is to do exactly what Alexander Hamilton proposed, NOT SUPPORTING someone who does not support and defend your values, A.K.A., you find another candidate that does support your values and morals and principles and you support them and vote for them, even if it is a third-party candidate.
"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

“stuffing the ballot box”
It must be nice to be able to just make up lies without the need to provide any evidence. It probably makes you feel good but I doubt that your vile comments are convincing anyone.
Is Cruz registering above single digits in any poll yet?
I have yet to hear your take on his comment that he is against mass deportations. Isn’t that amnesty?

Not lies, just common knowledge.
Paulbots are well-known for spamming online polls and well-known for being bussed in to overload the CPAC polls.
Ignore the truth all you want, but trying to use a CPAC poll to establish a position concerning Rand Paul's popularity is just hogwash.
