Nope.

When I say what I see, as opposed to what you say you think, I’m expressing my analysis of the situation.

You are doing the exact same thing. And your views are no more sacrosanct than mine.

I use reasoning and common sense to back up my points.

They aren’t sacrosanct, they’re mine. Just as yours are yours.

And do not mislead, I made it absolutely plain I disagree with his votes on nominees of Obama and I support Cruz’s votes.

However, you made the accusation he is acting as a HACK. I defined hack, and that IS the definition of a hack. You need to say who you think he is acting as a hack for, or what he is acting as a hack for. Just saying, “he’s a hack” is merely an ad homynym attack that lies there dead in the water if nothing more is forthcoming.

It defies common sense reasoning to look at someone as semi-isolated politically as Rand Paul, and accuse him of acting on behalf of someone or something that is “behind the scenes”, or that he fails to disclose.

The Republican party? The Republican Elite? Mitch McConnell? Harry Reid? Barack Obama? They don’t need hacks, do they? They don’t need Rand Paul to act for them. They are their own hacks and this country is going down because of them.

He’s just mistaken that in this situation with our nation at death’s door, he needs to be giving all due deference to Presidential appointments. I can see his point, I just disagree that the Constitution ends up being a suicide pact in practice, and in my reasoning that’s what happens when you vote for Obama’s horrible people.

But you see how few people agree with me, that are up there in DC. Ted Cruz was joined by only TWO OTHER SENATORS in voting against Kerry. That says it all for how widespread is the view that you hold your nose and vote yes, under all but the rarest of rare circumstances.

Rand taking that view is wrong. But hackery? For hacks who don’t need any hacks, because their hackery is destroying American quite nicely, thank you???

Nope.
