Oh. So that's what the Libertarian dedication to civil liberties looks like

Recently, Rand Paul and Sean Hannity got together to talk seriously about politics.

Stop laughing! They said they did, anyway.

Paul tossed out a pleasant little comment about how he would run the country.

I'm not for profiling people on the color of their skin, or on their religion, but I would take into account where they've been traveling and perhaps, you might have to indirectly take into account whether or not they've been going to radical political speeches by religious leaders. It wouldn't be that they are Islamic. But if someone is attending speeches from someone who is promoting the violent overthrow of our government, that's really an offense that we should be going after — they should be deported or put in prison.

That pesky First Amendment in our Bill of Rights was clearly just a suggestion.

On the plus side, I imagine a lot of congregations of those far right fundagelical preachers who advocate a Christian theocracy ought to be packing their Bermuda shorts and aloha shirts for a long vacation in Gitmo.
