Ap-Paul-ing

From today's Courier-Journal:
Kentucky’s horse racing season is well under way so it seems only fitting that U.S. Sen. Rand Paul hit a sort of political trifecta this week with this comment about President Barack Obama’s support for same-sex marriage: “Call me cynical, but I wasn’t sure his views on marriage could get any gayer.”

In one unfortunate laugh-line in a speech, the Kentucky Republican managed to offend: 1. Fellow Republicans 2. Liberal gay rights activists and 3. Conservative opponents of gay marriage.
