He fights against senseless, bloated regulation because he is a libertarian, and that's what libertarians do...they fight against bloated government in order to enforce only that which is required for the country to function.

He fights against regulation at the federal level, not at the state and local level, which is more constitutionalist than absolute libertarian. This would allow states to implement consistent laws where it makes sense and different laws where it doesn't. Rand Paul is not for a libertarian utopia without rules, like most people here claim.
