Funny Definition Of "Liberties" You Have There, Rand Paul

Sen. Rand Paul is nothing more than a misogynist Tea Party douchebag like the rest of the Republican party's "conservatives".  The use of sweeping federal power to outlaw choice is fine, as long as it's used against groups that don't include the subset of white Republican male senators.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) on Friday introduced so-called “fetal personhood” legislation that would completely outlaw abortion in the United States.

The Life at Conception Act would declare that human life began at conception, providing fertilized eggs with the same legal status as born persons.

“The Life at Conception Act legislatively declares what most Americans believe and what science has long known – that human life begins at the moment of conception, and therefore is entitled to legal protection from that point forward,” Paul said in a statement. “ The right to life is guaranteed to all Americans in the Declaration of Independence and ensuring this is upheld is the Constitutional duty of all Members of Congress.”

So tell me again how Rand Paul respects individual choice, local freedoms, and states' rights when it comes to using the federal government to tell women what they must do with their own bodies, or face the wrath of the state.

I'm waiting for this explanation.   Do you buy Rand Paul's?

“The Court then admitted that if the personhood of an unborn baby is established, the right to abort ‘collapses, for the fetus’ right to life is then guaranteed specifically by the [14] Amendment,’” he said.

Seems to be he's nothing more than a crackpot Tea Party Republican.  It also explains why so many of his supporters are men.

So please, fill me in on how Rand Paul is a libertarian.  Go ahead.  I could use a laugh.
