Good idea, show all liberty loving constitutional conservatives the door.

How EXACTLY are Paultards "liberty loving constitutional conservatives"?

The Pauls are the ultimate big government statists. Sure they hate government at the federal level, but they are fine with ANYTHING as long as it's done at the state level.

That's what this phony notion of "states rights" is all about. They believe that the states have rights, but that's not what out Constitution sets forth. PEOPLE have rights, states have powers that are granted by the PEOPLE. If states have rights AND powers, it is almost axiomatic that the rights of the people will be infringed and that is exactly what's happening in America today.

Look at abortion, many Paultards insist that abortion is a "states right" issue; in other words, they are pro-choice-by-state. Which simply means that each state is empowered to declare persons to be non-persons and this is a formula that has proved disastrous EVERY time it has been employed throughout history. Now granted, both Pauls have said that they want to abolish abortion nationwide, but they quickly assure their libertarian base that there will be "thousands" of "exceptions" that will allow the American Holocaust to continue unabated.

And what of same-sex "marriage"? Once again, the Pauls are all for it provided it's done at the state level. However, the reality is that it is a practical impossibility to work this way, people moving to different states and federal tax issues effectively require marriage to be a federal issue. Certainly all states have long had different laws about marriage; however, it has been established that these marriages are valid in other states (Loving v. Virginia comes into play). Now, either the Pauls are too incompetent to comprehend this or they are fully aware of it and are perfectly fine with same-sex "marriage" becoming federal policy.

That should do wonders for fund raising. /not

Perhaps you can enlighten us on how the Paultard "money bombs" have benefited anyone other than the Pauls. Paultards are often anarchists and have no interest in supporting actual conservatives because true conservatism flies in the face of everything they believe.
