While I commend the message, I question the content. How did he “just happen” to walk into an operating room?!
It is too bad he is too old to be president. As he has aged he has become even more of a nutter in a number of areas. He is such a smart man, I love some of his ideas. His stand on abortion is outstanding.
And still, he thinks “states’ rights” trump the God-given, unalienable right to life.
This is deplorable.
If Dr Paul walked in and saw them do this to an innocent life, as a doctor sworn to the Hippocratic Oath, isn’t he morally obligated to assist in saving the child, instead of “leaving him in the bucket?”
“I will apply dietic measures for the benefit of the sick according to my ability and judgment; I will keep them from harm and injustice.”
Just “rhetorically” askin’
I find this ad extremely offensive for that very reason!!
What RP described was infanticide — not abortion! If it was a living, crying, breathing baby, he had a responsibility to report a crime.
Such is RP’s convenient positioning on this and other issues.
Despite this apparent (convenient) pro-life position, as a federal legislator/official, he has no position on abortion other than to make state legislators decide on it.
Paul lost pro-life support in 08 because he appeared wishy washy on the subject. this appears to be his attempt to be more wish-y than wash-y.
Yes, but he did nothing to stop it nor did he do anything to get that baby to safety. That surprised me. I had thought better of Dr. Paul.
Ron Paul isn't a man - he's a COWARD!
I've personally gone out in the dead of night and taken trash bags out of dumpsters at abortion clinics. I took these bags to a friend's apartment and sorted through all of the baby body parts - holding them in my very hands. These babies were given a proper and decent burial instead of ending up in a Los Angeles dump.
To ignore the plight of a newborn baby that has been thrown away in a bucket is beyond what I'm able to grasp.
Ya gotta pause and wonder where the rest of the GOP field is on this issue. If they have true pro-life convictions, why are they not throwing their ads and videos out there?
Just sayin.....
He just walked in? That’s baloney!
These are the types of stories that will turn the tide on legal abortion. The Right needs to learn that we need to win hearts, not arguments. Paul’s story is weary to the soul.
I was changed that day....I was not a "pro-choice" person after that.
