[Ron Paul should be considered on any pro-life poll.]

So that's why NARAL gives him a 65% this year and a 75% last year, eh?

Gee, I didn't realize that NARAL were the ones who set the standard for pro-life-

Life and Liberty The right of an innocent, unborn child to life is at the heart of the American ideals of liberty. My professional and legislative record demonstrates my strong commitment to this pro-life principle.

In 40 years of medical practice, I never once considered performing an abortion, nor did I ever find abortion necessary to save the life of a pregnant woman.

In Congress, I have authored legislation that seeks to define life as beginning at conception, HR 1094.

I am also the prime sponsor of HR 300, which would negate the effect of Roe v Wade by removing the ability of federal courts to interfere with state legislation to protect life. This is a practical, direct approach to ending federal court tyranny which threatens our constitutional republic and has caused the deaths of 45 million of the unborn.

I have also authored HR 1095, which prevents federal funds to be used for so-called “population control.”

Many talk about being pro-life. I have taken direct action to restore protection for the unborn.

As an OB/GYN doctor, I’ve delivered over 4,000 babies. That experience has made me an unshakable foe of abortion. Many of you may have read my book, Challenge To Liberty, which champions the idea that there cannot be liberty in a society unless the rights of all innocents are protected. Much can be understood about the civility of a society in observing its regard for the dignity of human

Eh?

No thanks at all to Mr. Paul, now there are millions of people who are now free in the world who were oppressed by dictators and violence and fear. If Mr. Paul, the moral-coward, were a Congressman in the 1850s, he would have been personally against slavery, but also against mandating their emancipation, which makes his personal opinions moot.

I'm not sure how helpful a vanity thread like this one is. I look at these FR poll results occasionally but stopped voting in them because even the member opinion portion didn't seem all that representative to me.

As an old-time FReeper, I consider online polls to be utterly worthless anyway.

He voted against S.403, the Child Interstate Abortion Notification Act. Supposedly, he and Al Gore try to claim "there is no controlling legal authority."

Much as Harry Brown, whom Mr. Paul voted for for President, claims he is against drugs, but wants to make it legal for minors to buy heroin at the corner stores.

It’s pretty meaningless. It’s just a feel good gesture for some.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand but What motorcycle were you riding in that picture?

That´s a Ural a Russian copy of the Nazi WWII sidecar.

I wanted the military version but at the time Saddam bought them all up in anticipation of our invasion.

Ron Paul echoes enemy propaganda. "Freepers" who propagate Ron Paul's candidacy on this forum should expect very angry reactions.

I'm all for removing the accounts of resident Paul supporters. We certainly would not tolerate Cindy Sheehan supporters here, so why Ron Paul?

Are you really afraid of words? Ron Paul appeared on Alex Jones radio show when no one in the MSM would interview him and he never signed on to any conspiracy ideas.

How about Paul taking part in a couple of Alex Jones' documentaries, Matrix of Evil and EndGame promoting 9.11 Conspiracies and New World Order conspiracies? This is beyond just having interviews with the kook.

Vet of Foreign Wars endorsed him.

Actually not. I guessed you missed it, but the VFW sent a scathing letter to the owner of Military for Paul demanding he take down this information. They have not endorse him for President. The owner of Military for Paul pissed them off so much they issued a press release condemning that group.

VFW Reiterates Non-Endorsement Policy of Political Candidates

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 31, 2007--The Military and Veterans for Ron Paul 2008 website contains a banner headline and link that is clearly designed to mislead visitors into believing that Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) has received a national VFW endorsement for president. That is not correct, and we have requested that the headline and link be deleted.

The VFW is non-partisan and does not endorse political candidates because it would violate our congressional charter. However, for sake of clarification, the VFW Political Action Committee is a separately incorporated organization that does selectively endorse candidates for the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate who advocate for our nation’s veterans and for America’s security.

The PAC did endorse Congressman Paul in his recent 2006 congressional campaign, but that must not be misconstrued as an endorsement for a higher office. To be fair, the VFW PAC has endorsed a total of seven of the current presidential candidates in their election bids for the House or Senate.

The PAC consists of an 11-member Board of Directors that sets the endorsement criteria. They have not endorsed any candidate in this campaign and will not endorse any candidate for the office of the president of the United States.

As for military donations, several news agencies have shown that not only are the donations unable to be validated (anyone can put any employer down) but the number of military donors (around 90) is statistically insignificant. (something like .0001%)

I thought the leftist Rooty Rooters were bad, but the Paulistinians are totally insane and their agenda is more dangerous for America than ANYTHING the ‘Rats have ever proposed.

Ron Paul is strongly pro-life.

That is reflected by his actions over 10 years in Congress and his platform.

As for drugs, we haven't had a great sucess stopping anyone from getting them-now have we?

And so the alternative is to allow drug sales to minors in the legal marketplace!? Does anyone wonder why the Libertarians are so discredited among normal, caring people?

That’s always the liberaltarian way of doing things, lower the crime rate by endorsing crime.

This is a serious site for Conservative activism...not RINOISM!

That's what I used to think. But I'm not so sure anymore. Don't you think that GWB is a RINO?

If not, since when has doubling the budget of the Department of Education been a "Republican" position? Remember that Reagan tried to ELIMINATE the entire department.

You damn right he’s a RINO, which is sure as hell why we don’t need another one.

Ron Paul is just nutty and irrational.

Sorry...I don’t want to get into a fight over Ron Paul, I am not really a fighter, but he is an embarrassment to our party, maybe not to you and that’s ok for you.
