   No. And you probably should not spout off talking points about things that you do not understand. It only makes you look like a fool.

   Rand Paul is an idiot, for a myriad different reasons.

   Wow, what great liberal ‘logic’. And smear. Good job.

   Too bad you didn’t link to ANY proof of your statement.

   No that is not the libertarian position. Libertarians favor minimal government intervention, not no government. If you take the time to read up on the libertarian point of view you will find that libertarians believe in government regulation of things that have the potential to cause disaster.

   You are confusing anarchy with libertarianism, libertarians believe that the government does have a role to play.

   I believe Rand Paul’s position is that too much government regulation of business is wrong. That’s quite a bit different than “all government regulation”. It’s similar to the position that the government spends too much money, which is different than the position that the government shouldn’t spend any money at all. However if you can find a quote from Rand Paul that states he thinks BP “can spill all the oil it wants to in the oceans” you should certainly post it on YA.
   (Actually I was under the impression that oil companies would rather sell oil than spill it into the ocean…)

   Is the democrat position that safety inspections can be skipped and oil can wash up onto our shores? Last I checked, the Libertarian Party wasn’t in charge. When are democrats going to be held accountable for all this “hope and change” washing up in Louisiana?
