About 1:50 into the video you get the usual neocon misrepresentation of non-interventionist as isolationist. Rand Paul is a non-interventionist.

He's anti-choice on abortion as well.

He also blocked the DC Budget Autonomy Act last year...

Instead of embracing a decentralization plan, he did everything to undermine it.

Anti-choice huh?


He takes a states' rights position, favoring the overturn of Roe v. Wade and allowing states to decide on the legality of abortions without federal involvement.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rand_Paul#Abortion_and_bioethics

So he sounds like to me that he is pro-life but wants the States to determine what's in the best interest of their citizens. Sounds like to me he understands the fundamentals this country was built on. Sounds like to me that he doesn't want the Federal government deciding what's best for everybody given that is the path to oppression.

Sounds to me he is the most "pro-choice" guy out there and it sounds like to me that you are in favor of forcing your agenda onto people no matter the cost.

No, he just doesn't think the taxpayers should pay for things like abortions and birth control pills. And he personally doesn't believe in abortion.

Neither do I. But if you want to murder your kid, go right ahead, just don't send the bill to me.

Hell the leftist billionaires are so gung ho on Margaret Sanger's eugenics, they shouldn't mind paying for this. After all, Barry has taken such good care of them, they can afford it. Your dirty little leftist secret is that you've aborted far more blacks proportionately than any other race. Nice stealth eugenics, that!

Cheaper to pay for birth control than to pay for abortions or medicaid births and foodstamps for life.

I have a hard time objecting to liberals aborting their offspring. I can only see an upside to that.

In fact they should have the option of performing retroactive self abortions, I'd even help fund it.

It's a shame this thread became about abortion. Rand Paul has a lot to offer the consevative movement, he may yet prove to be one of the most successful pro-Constitution politicians post-WWII America has seen. I enjoyed the speech Rand Paul gave at CPAC, I think he does a great job of rallying the libertarian elements of the Republican Party without coming off as a fringe candidate.

His father marginalized himself by allowing 9/11 truthtards and assorted malcontents to be the face of his following. I liked everythimg RP had to say aboust his domestic and finacial agenda, less so about his foriegn policy but I could accept it. What I couldn't get over was the stigma brought on by the Paulbots who made complete asses of themselves and anyone who is opposed to fiat currency and a global collectivist government.

Ending it YES! refonrming it so they work harder for less on the system than they would if they get a job, the voters would flock to it, especially when you could through attrition replace may public workers, janitors, clerks, receptionest, migrant workers, ect. and do it at a fraction of the cost.

Then for those that still refuse to work, the public would be totally fine with ending the gravy train.

DC Vote: Senator Rand Paul is a Hypocrite for his Assault on DC
From June 26, 2012

On Tuesday, Paul made it clear in a Washington Post interview that he is using the District as a political playground. “I think it’s a good way to call attention to some issues that have national implications,” Paul told the Post. “We don’t have [control] over the states but we do for D.C.”

“DC residents are deeply offended by Senator Rand Paul’s stunning hypocrisy,” said DC Vote Executive Director Ilir Zherka. “He preaches about restraining the power of the federal government, but uses that same power to impose his own, narrow political agenda on residents of the District of Columbia.”

His father ran as a candidate for another party.

He should have been shunned, not marginalized, for that alone, not to mention some of his whacko views.

Rand Paul should distance himself from the rantings of his father if he hopes to be POTUS.

Considering the large number of semi-literate and illiterate voters who have no clue about issues, we need a Constitutional amendment banning party reference on any ballot.

Parties are not metioned in the Constitution; if a voter does not understand enough to be able to pick a candidate without party affiliation by his name, he should not vote anyway.

You only parrot things I have put forth, with the exception that if we had free birth control available by signing, billed to the Feds, available without question on demand, we would not need abortion except in the case of the mother's health, fetal deformity, or rape.

We already pay for the delivery, for most of the abortions, for the welfare for life.

BC cheaper by the million, free BC more cost effective, and would reduce abortion rates.

No solution is perfect.

"Society" is an abomination.

What the two hosts of TYT overlook is that if the EPA becomes involved, taxpayers will end up footing the bill, or paying for the clean-up, which is exactly what has happened. This shell game of obfuscation and lack of candor, which includes government openness does nothing but obscure the addressing the issues of both corporate unwieldiness and too much governmental involvement. Either way, the taxpayers are always caught in the middle ending up being squeezed by both in the "market-place" via price increases and over-regulation making it more difficult for a person to become a business entrepreneur.

DC Vote: Senator Rand Paul is a Hypocrite for his Assault on DC
From June 26, 2012

On Tuesday, Paul made it clear in a Washington Post interview that he is using the District as a political playground. “I think it’s a good way to call attention to some issues that have national implications,” Paul told the Post. “We don’t have [control] over the states but we do for D.C.”

“DC residents are deeply offended by Senator Rand Paul’s stunning hypocrisy,” said DC Vote Executive Director Ilir Zherka. “He preaches about restraining the power of the federal government, but uses that same power to impose his own, narrow political agenda on residents of the District of Columbia.”

And don't try to answer with a goddamn

I view abortion as an abomination. I find it hard to consider us a civilized society when we allow unborn babies to be slaughtered. It's worse than Rwandan Machete Genocide. You have to be a truly sick animal to be an abortion provider.

That said since conservative Christians generally do not have abortions, and I would prefer a population where conservative Chritians far outnumber bed wetting athiest shithead liberals, I can't get bent out of shape over the issue. As abhorrent as I find it, the contempt I have for the sorts of people who have the procedure outweighs that.

The fact that ghetto rats are also frequently having their next generation of ferral bastards sucked down a drain doesn't exactly warm my heart, but I can't raise too much of an objection to it. I find the positives outweighing the sin. Since I wouldn't allow my own children to be aborted without a fight, the sin isn't mine.

Complete bullshit. You leftwing propagandists love to take snippets of speeches as evidence, yet when your moonbat masters say asinine things you never run out of excuses for them.

We ran 2 "moderates" back to back. Obozo pretended to be a "moderate", and wiped the floor with McCain. Then in 2012 the moonbat messiah again attempted to cloak himself in "moderation" but really didn't fool anyone who isn't a complete idiot, and barely squeaked out a victory against a liberal republican who no one really wanted. He was just the last republican standing after the media destroyed every other candidate one by one.

Someone like Rand Paul scares the shit out of bed wetters like you, because he energizes people and stands in opposition to idiotic leftist insanity rather than compromises with it. You don't compromise with the criminally insane. You defeat them. Rand Paul and the rising tea party stars understand this, and the flea bagger types know the free ride is coming to an end sooner or later.

The more bed wetters despise a candidate, the better that candidate will be as a leader.
