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.
States don’t make the laws that I just brought up on abortion, marriage and immigration and employment at the federal level.
“States don’t make the laws that I just brought up on abortion, marriage and immigration and employment at the federal level.”
Duh! Rand Paul is saying that he believes the states SHOULD decide on Gay marriage. Not the Federal govt. I agree. A lot of other conservative republicans agree with that and they are not Libertarians.
Whether Rand Paul is a Libertarian remains to be seen and everygody will have to make up their own mind as the campaign unfolds. So far he’s been a pretty good republican and other than immigration and endorsing Mitch I don’t have a big problem with him at the moment.
Just remember Sarah Palin endorsing Mcstain. Now that was a blooper.
