There are a lot of conservatives who believe in states rights. Me being one of them.

What does state rights have to do with libertarian social liberalism and federal law?

The feds recognizing state gay marriages, and abortion on federal land, gay marriage and immigration, we know that "libertarian" means liberal on social issues at all levels of government and American culture.

federal courts imposing it unconstitutionally needs to be stopped as a big first step.

“Paul maintained that his own view of gay marriage is one that allows the states to make decisions based on local mores”

Just because you believe that gay marriage should be a states rights issue does not a Libertarian make you. It does not even mean you are advocating for gay marriage.

Just like laws agains’t driving too slow in the left hand lane should be decided by the individual states. :-)
