R.P. opposes abortion.

Well, he votes against it some of the time and he votes for it some of the time. But he says he's against it.

Now you're sounding like the moronic Thompson bashers.

I can't say that I am all that familiar with his voting record, but I think he views the abortion question as extra-Constitutional: The federal government has no role in this matter, and therefore it falls to states' rights. Personally, I think RP offers up some excellent ideas about returning to federalism, and slimming down the federal government. Where I personally part ways with RP is on his position in the mideast. Immediate surrender (what he calls withdrawal) would probably be catastrophic.
