Pro-life vid of day: Rand Paul discusses media bias on abortion
by Kelli
At the Susan B. Anthony List Campaign for Life Gala & Summit on April 16 in Washington, D.C., Senator Rand Paul discussed going on the offensive about abortion:
When life begins, there is a role for state… but you can’t have liberty if you don’t protect where your liberty originates from, and that’s your right to life….
We have to push back. Believe in what we believe in, and do it in a way that gathers more people to us.

Thank you, Mr. Paul. May God bless and your family.
Thank you for keeping the rights and lives of the little ones and their mothers foremost in our minds.
Was that so hard to say? It seemed to be as easy to say as anything else politicians talk about. Why is it so uncommon that it earns a special spot here on this blog?
I’m starting to like this Paul guy.
Tommy R: I’m starting to like this Paul guy.
Me too. He and I have some disagreements, but I like his Libertarian side, and he has some interesting positions – ones that will definitely be “for better or worse” depending on who you talk to.
He has a fairly wide-open position on resource production, carbon emissions, gov’t restrictions, etc. I don’t feel this would be that important of a campaign issue, but who knows? I might not go as far as he does, but I’m definitely for easing up on US businesses and not taking on what amounts to relatively unilateral action – as with carbon emissions – when the effect on our world would be miniscule indeed, with most other countries making no such concessions/sacrifices.
Years back, he really wasn’t worried about Iran having a nuclear weapon – that one might cause him some trouble.
He’s said that he does not like gov’t telling private businesses to serve customers of all races, that, with respect to the matter, he does “believe in private ownership.” He’s already had to recant some of this, but it’s likely to show up if he is a viable candidate. His detractors would likely try and make hay with this, and if it sticks, he’d be sorely wounded.
He has proposed a $2000 deductible for Medicare. It would cut gov’t costs, to be sure, but he doesn’t mention anything about cutting payments to doctors. He’s a doctor himself, wonder of wonders. This would pretty well kill him in an election – he needs all the “old people” vote he can get, and what do you think they’d feel about the Medicare deductible?
