I've had an eye on the Wall Street Journal this week, after law prof Randy Barnett published his totally inane (not to mention strategically idiotic) anti-Paul piece on pro-war libertarians. While I hope to see a Paul reply published in the near future, the Journal's editorial page took a step in the right direction today with this article on a conservative gathering in Kiowa, CO.

The buzzword on the left nowadays is "tolerance" for those with different lifestyles -- like cross-dressers -- but almost everything that these folks want to do, liberals won't tolerate. One smoker lamented that if "gays were discriminated against today the way smokers are, there would be an uproar." Gun owners have reason to be fearful too. In a recent blog interview on Moveon.org, John Edwards of North Carolina proclaimed that health care, child care, a livable wage and a clean environment are "rights," but owning a gun is a "privilege." The men and women who gathered in Kiowa would like to send him a copy of the Constitution.
