In other words, he wants to be on record opposing same-sex "marriage" while refusing to stop it.

Wow. What a statement. Politicians are such geniuses.
So if elected, I wouldn't expect him to support marriage, just as I don't expect the Democrats to support Holy Matrimony.
To destroy society, destroy the family.
To destroy the family, destroy marriage....
To destroy marriage, either make it unnecessary or.....re-define it. Doing BOTH does it best.
Communists knew this and planned it in the ‘40’s......or earlier......
Exactly.
I will give Paul credit for favoring a Constitutional Amendment recognizing life begins at conception. But how in the world can he be so stupid as to oppose other conservative fundamentals.
(Social) Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Rand Paul is not my favorite by any means, but he is correct in that marriage should be an issue left to the states per the Tenth Amendment, and the best thing for the Feds would be to drop the whole issue. Since the Federal courts won’t drop the issue, however, that puts supporters of traditional marriage between a rock and a hard place: if we stick to our Constitutional principles the left will use the federal courts to force same-sex marriage down everyone’s throats; if we push for a Constitutional amendment we will get nowhere because you won’t get 2/3s of both houses and 3/4 of the state legislatures to go along. In short, you can’t win a battle against an opponent who won’t play by the rules, but if the purpose of the battle is to support the rules, you will lose the battle by breaking the rules.

Don’t let your opponent define the battlefield. Don’t let the left define terms. They have redefined marriage and now make claims of inequality. Marriage has always been man and woman or perhaps man and women. The word has a meaning and it is being applied equally. The left alters the meaning to be any grouping of persons and then claims any opposition to this redefinition is unequal application.
Don’t let the left define terms.
Ceding language is defeat without combat.
and I am sure he means it as much as Lamar Alexander opposed amnesty
Sure, he says that in Iowa. No ulterior motive for that, no none at all. /sarc
Nobody should trust politicians. Nobody should vote for politicians who change their stances on major issues when they consider a run for a higher office.
Or that he’s for it before he’ll be against it!
LOL!
He may want to consider what God established.
Genesis 1
English Standard Version (ESV)
26 Then God said, “Let us make man[h] in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
28 And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” 29 And God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food. 30 And to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the heavens and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so. 31 And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
here yet again Paul is trying to have it both ways, just like the border issues.
No Paul you might favor them , but it does not mean that you oppose anything goes except normal marriage.
So he believes that the Federal Government has no business in protecting the foundation of civilization. It’s like saying the federal government has no business in regulating people killing each other: let the states decide what constitutes murder.
And as a practical matter, the Federal government via the SCOTUS has already made it its business in Windsor; the “leave it to the States” ship has already sailed. You either fight it at the Federal level or you don’t.
