I think the issue here is that Ron Paul is opposing federal Tort reform on state courts because it conflicts with the originalist type reading of the constitution that protects the states from the federal government power. Is that what you are asking me about?
How about the federal ban on partial birth abortion? There is a similar conflict.
I’m with you on all of it. Just thought you might like to chime in. If you see my comments above, I was chastising talk radio stars. That’s what made me think of you.
