...AND WHEN I WOKE UP, I WAS ON THE FUNDAMENTALIST-BIGOT SIDE OF A VOTE TALLY. WHAT ARE THE ODDS?

Posted on 10:55 AM by dimple
Erik Loomis notes that True Son of Liberty Rand Paul voted against ENDA. Well of course. For the libertarians, Scott Shackford of Reason:
Libertarians who believe that hiring policies – even discriminatory ones -- fall under the First Amendment’s “freedom of association” provision may end up getting lumped in with the religious right on this one (not that this is a new thing).
Poor, put-upon fellows, always getting lumped in with the people they always vote with! Look on the bright side, bros -- maybe this vote shows Paul's getting the courage of his convictions back, and will call for the overturn of the Civil Rights Act. Dare to dream!
