Why is he picking on you?
He still has not even addressed his incorrect declaration that the US was specifically founded as an anti-majority-tyranny republic.
I proved him wrong, and he totally ignores it
Look, it is clear that Glibichee has a logic problem.
He thinks that voting record is black and white and that voting patterns are not supposed to be based on principle. But Glibichee is a pro-war guy, so if it is not pro-war, he will not support it, so he tries to use logic to refute people who disagree, but he cannot do it correctly, although he asks some good questions.
I actually use the same Ron Paul technique in my daily affairs. As long as I can see that people do not understand me/or are unwilling to try to understand me, I do not move forward with them. Dr. Paul is like that. He wants people to use their own brains, take intellectual responsibility for the garbage in their heads, and use reason to understand him and his issues. But people are too lazy, or they have their own agendas, and so he votes on principle.
Dr. Paul is against silent compromise. If he would vote with the majority, even if he disagrees, that would mean his desire for people to understand the issues is not important - and that is not the case with him.
Glibichee, I suggest you make a sincere attempt to understand the above reasoning, merge it with Ron Paul's views on the Military, and any intelligent human being, which you probably are somewhat, can understand that he is not anti-military, unless you are lying to yourself - which is probably one of the worst human nature defects.
I am afraid if you are unable to understand another person's point of view, you will find that nobody will want to debate anything with you, because we would not even want to move past the first initial step
