Dobson: GOP misled me on Rand Paul
Politico ^ | 05/03/2010 | Josh Kraushaar

Christian conservative leader James Dobson withdrew his endorsement of Kentucky Senate candidate Trey Grayson Monday, switching his support to Rand Paul’s campaign and accusing “senior members of the GOP” of misleading him about Paul’s record on abortion.

Dobson said in an audio recording that he made an “embarrassing mistake” as a result of misunderstanding Paul’s position on abortion.

“I was given misleading information about the candidacy of Dr. Rand Paul, who is running in the Republican Primary for the U.S. Senate. Senior members of the GOP told me Dr. Paul is pro-choice and that he opposes many conservative perspectives, so I endorsed his opponent,” Dobson explained. “But now I've received further information from OB/GYNs in Kentucky whom I trust, and from interviewing the candidate himself.”

So being a major participant in what was arguably the most significant state ratification convention since it led directly to the bill of rights is an "unconventional" definition?

Strange.

Your exact same criteria would also make the absurd exclusion of Federalist Papers co-author John Jay from the founders as well, seeing as he did not attend the Philadelphia Convention even though he played a similar role to New York ratification that Marshall did to Virginia.

I first stated some time ago that your argument against Marshall is strictly an argument of convenience to get around the obstacle of Baron v. Baltimore. Everything you have done since that time has only validated my original observation.

LOL! You keep talkin’ to yourself. I’m sure the lurkers will enjoy. We are done, at least on this thread.

Obviously you are still reading, so I must necessarily be talking to someone other than myself.

Or are you going to tell me that isn't possible despite your own response because my lack of membership in your kooky little Straussian cult makes my talking at odds with "natural law"

Whatever. I’m just servicing my “new posts” flag.” See you on the other thread. Like you care.
