Ron Paul: My Favorite Drag Queen!

I had a friend on the Facialbook today say that he wanted Ron Paul for president. This was my response:

"I absolutely agree with his position that an individual should have the right to make their own decisions, and from an outside perspective, he seems very open minded. I just don't understand how he could say that a person should be able to do what they want, and then turn around and sign the bill against gay marriage. I would worry that if he's elected president, that he would sign anti-marijuana bills into law as well.

You and I both know that the legalization of Marijuana as well as gay marriage would be a huge benefit to the economy, but the things that Ron Paul says, and the things that he does are a bit opposite. His personal stance and his political stance are different and to me, that's kind of weird."

I really do agree that some things should be up to the states to decide, but you can't just go around talking about it, and then doing what you think that the republican party wants. It's especially bad when those are two completely different things.

I also think that Ron Paul talking about the legalization of heroin and prostitution got a bit to liberal, even for me. I mean, you have to have some guidelines, even if they are a bit loose. When you think about it, he sounds more like an anarchist than a republican. I wouldn't want to vote for someone who will unintentionally increase the crime rate, and say "it's an individual's right to choose." WTF

Yes I'm liberal, but I believe that there should be laws, and guidelines as well. There needs to be a balance. Having a different political stance than what you feel personally is not the balance that I believe America needs.
