Ron Paul constantly poses for holy pictures as a pro-lifer and as pro-family guy while consistently REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING about such issues at a national level. The standard Paulistinian party line about the 10th Amendment doesn't cut it while the fedcourts and SCOTUS are busy cramming the infanticide and rump=ranging agendas down our collective throats under the guise of "federal judicial supremacy" so that state legislatures dare not act and will not be able to sustain their legislation (or even statewide initiatives) if they have the normally absent guts to defy the fedcourts and SCOTUS. It is particularly galling to actual pro-lifers who have devoted decades to resistance to federal tyranny to see Ron Paul or anyone else pose as a pro-lifer or as pro-family while being an essential surrender monkey on each issue.

Finally, states' rights is an approach that will not work in any event. The purpose is to crush baby-killing and rump-ranging posing as "marriage" and being subsidized by law. We are either serious or we are not. Serious means insisting on real results. If we take a state's rights approach, at the very least, California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, and several other states will keep "legal" abortion and residents of all states will be facilitated in getting abortions by simply traveling to the nearest baby-killing Mecca. Ditto for gay everything. Thanks but no thanks.

Ron Paul is a fake, a phony and a fraud every time he poses as a social conservative, as a military conservative, and as anything but the useless crackpot that he is.

I hate to intrude on such a pleasant thread, but I read something, somewhere.

Faithful to the first guarantee of the Declaration of Independence, we assert the inherent dignity and sanctity of all human life and affirm that the unborn child has a fundamental individual right to life which cannot be infringed. We support a human life amendment to the Constitution, and we endorse legislation to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment’s protections apply to unborn children.

Must have been some cult, it's under the heading of Values. Worse yet, the get into marriage next.

Ron needs to stand up and run as a libertarian, or something else that provides money bombs. It's not like this is that controversial an issue amongst Republicans. Back in 1980 it read

There can be no doubt that the question of abortion, despite the complex nature of its various issues, is ultimately concerned with equality of rights under the law. While we recognize differing views on this question among Americans in general--and in our own Party--we affirm our support of a constitutional amendment to restore protection of the right to life for unborn children. We also support the Congressional efforts to restrict the use of taxpayers' dollars for abortion.

Back in the day followed by strong families. No one was thinking about marriage I guess.
