    Haven't read what you are talking about in you being called things, just showing what God says about those things.

    Whether a christian is Dem, Rep. or Ind these two issues should go by what scripture says and not by party affiliation.

    Not really. I gave you about 20 links to the topic. Of course you refused to look at any of them. I was not surprised that you did not read any of them.

    Try doing a bit of research and you will find I was right. Rand's comments have been shown to not stand up to fact checking. Don't believe me? Look it up for yourself.

    Which link states that Paul specifically wants to end the ADA - NOT what a reporter is trying to make it sound what Paul is saying - ie putting words into his mouth.
    As I stated before - he wants to make reasonable changes to the ADA.

    Good post but you left out one important fact. the Civil Rights Law of 1964 would not have been passed had it not been for Republican support!

    OK so I came right to the end of the thread so maybe someone already mentioned this:

    Abraham Lincoln, the first Republican - freed the slaves.

    I did more research than you did. He never said it. Give it up.

    Show me your links saying he did not oppose ADA. You can't as there are none. You one-liners only come from what you want to believe not what is reality.

    I don't have to. You said he wanted it abolished. You don't get to change your words now that you've been caught. Be a man for once.

    You gave your opinion with nothing to back it up. You day you don't have to simply because you cannot produce.

    I gave many links saying RP wants to do away with ADA. Of course as this done not fit your beliefs you want it not to be true, so you give one-liners and opinion ... but nothing else.

    I bet you have done no research at all. If you had and had found something saying he is in favor of ADA you would have posted it. But as you did nothing all you can do is give you uninformed opinion.

    Rand Paul has never said he wanted to abolish the ADA. You can caterwaul all you wish to. If you're not going to be honest about this I'm certainly not going to be so stupid as to engage you on the last challenge. Take it back and we can continue.

    He did NOT say that -
    He only wants to see some changes.

    Please provide the link - where he specifically state that.
    A you tube of Paul speaking would be an excellent post!

    Salty, one you tube video that might be condemning or helping him cannot be heard. The audio is claimed to be copyrighted by someone and it has been deleted. If you can lip read maybe you can make it out.

    The only other one I have found is at:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZvPugEqXe8

    Here he talks about forcing small businesses to install elevators. He makes a big thing out of this. However, he seem to be ignorant of the law in that no where in ADA are elevators mandated in any way. So his point is mute as it does not address a real issue.

    I think he really waffles on his answer. But after all he is a politician.
