worked with bob dole back in 1990. he felt strongly.was allowed on the senate floor as a privilege. he wasn't allowed to speak so mccain spoke for him. before we get to phone calls, what was paul's reaction? guest: you can see the video and halfway through the vote his ise, a former senator, she patting him on the back. you can see on c-span video -- halfway through the realize what is going and he is rolled out of the chamber before the final vote is cast. host: 8 democratic caller, go ahead. i initially called the second to last question that the crux of the matter. republicans did not support this treaty. bob dole was on the floor and was initiated by president george depew bush. just felt so i ashamed the way they treated bob dole, an american hero, a war hero, a great center. his wife was even a former senator. republicans should be ashamed. they let these crazy people act -- -- if you try to ngs.y thign they would go michael kranish. guest: some of them feel that you entreaties are not worthwhile. some of them probably say that th

a >>> on december 4th of last year, former senate majority leader bob dole paid a rare visit to capitolhill. former presidential candidate, former majority leader in the senate. himself a war hero, bob dole himself went to capitol hill in december to be an eyewitness to every senator's vote on the ratification on the u.n. convention on the rights of people with disabilities. senate ratification of this thing probably should have been a slam-dunk. it was expected to be when they started getting atrointd in the first place. the treaty was modelled after our own americans with disability act. it was to take that advance we pioneered in this country in our own law and hold it up as an aspirational model for the rest of the world. since we already have the american with disabilities act in this country, this would be a feel good thing for us that would make a real difference around the world in terms of people with disabilities being treated with dignity. this was kind of a slam-dunk, you'd think. then the current crop of republicans occupying bob dole's old place in the senate decided this

then the current crop of republicans occupying bob dole's old place in the senate decided this actually a communist conspiracy to destroy parenting. they said it was a pandora's box, a u.n. takeover of the basic unit of the family, a conspiracy for one world government! and lo and behold senate republicans junked the treaty. so the world endorses the principles of our own law, our own americans with disabilities act and our republicans denounce that world endorsement as satanism or something. if you are wondering where this nonsense ends, i do not have an answer for you. i do know where the next stop is on this particular crazy train. that's coming up. all aboard. ...so you say men are superior drivers? yeah? then how'd i get this...
