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).
