"Jon Stewart returned from his week-long hiatus Tuesday night to sit down with Kentucky Senator
and noted “free speech” champion,
Rand Paul. The two-part interview gave Paul the chance to speak openly
about the GOP’s stance on Big Government (“We don’t like Big
Government until we do like Big Government”) — particularly as it’s
manifested itself in issues of NSA and religious freedom over the last year.
“It seems like gay marriage looms a lot larger in the minds of certain conservatives than it does in the Bible,” Stewart said to the GOP hopeful Tuesday. “And the only thing I would say is, don’t they sell cakes to sinners all the time, adulterers?”
Stewart illustrated the disingenuity of Paul’s stance by explaining that a bakery owner would never badger Paul about whether or not he’d “used the Lord’s name in vain,” prior to being helped. In a classic Paul move, the hopeful turned to the Patriot Act in his rebuttal." Salon
