What does that have to do with anything? There isn't a politican alive that supports every position you or I personally believe in. Does that mean we should ignore the majority of their platform because they disagree with our views on one issue? I think we should focus on the guys that have their head screwed on straight for the majority of the issues, and not cherry pick the ones that meet our own personal interests. Paul has voted against the bills, but he has not voted for a complete stop to stem cell research either. Paul believes government should not be involved in certain aspects of our lives, and medical research is one of them. That is the reason for his voting against any bill that sees government dollars going to pay for research that a business would normally pay for and benefit from in the long run.
