Sen. Rand Paul, in his ongoing quest to become the Liberty Overlord of America in 2016, courted a key demographic last night: gay-hating bigoted evangelicals in Iowa.
He spoke before the “Faith and Freedom Coalition” — a group that does its best to convince people that homosexuality is a grave threat to your children, in the most vulgar ways imaginable — and shared this pearl of wisdom to win over their hearts:
“Call me cynical, but I didn’t think his views on marriage could get any gayer,” he said.
That’s our Senator, by the way.
And, of course, no Rand Paul speech could be complete without him making up something in order to scare you:
“The president says if you’ve got three cars and I’ve got a moped, he’s going to come over to your house, take one of your cars and bring it to me.”
Keep your chin up, Kentucky.

This from a so called Libertarian. Paul loves himself some BIG government in your bedrooms, but hates it when it comes to business. But he knows his target audience. I have heard other bright bulbs in Kentucky describe socialism that way – take from those who have more and redistribute to undeserving others. Unfortunately, both anti-gay bigotry and nonsensical economics sells in Kentucky.
