All I learned from your two posts was that you are very angry. ebbv is listing actual positions of the Pauls on various issues. If you think he's wrong then call him out on them.

His points aren't even written coherently, but are slogans. e.g. "right to choose" and "They are against equal pay for equal work laws." He would have to demonstrate where Ron Paul and Rand Paul stated they are for inequality of pay for equal work. When you look at the issues, they aren't the same thing the juvenile slogans make them out to be.

He's writing as if they are against all these ideas, as opposed to being against that particular policy or implementation for a solution. Also the issues are a lot more nuanced.

Unfortunately, Paul wasn't in the Senate for their 2009 vote on Ledbetter. But, do you honestly think that someone who opposes anti-segregation laws because they 'tell business what to do' would have voted for an equal pay bill?

Smutticus, if I were to ask you if you think parents should be allowed to kill their one-month-old child, and you responded, "no," under your and ebbv's logic, you are "against the right to choose."

You show you give the issues no real thought, or more likely, choose to coldly ignore the harsh realities.
