Replying to a comment on Ron Paul and Civil Liberties

Anti-abortion. Well, delivering 4,000 babies and seeing a unborn put into a bucket crying and dieing in the corner of a room tends to make you that way. Also, it's pretty contradicting to have a double homicide if you kill a pregnant women, an unborn has inheritance rights, and if a doctor does something wrong with an unborn he can get sued. Leave it up to the states, he says. Even if you are pro-choice, there are much major issues in this country going on that need to be fixed.

Anti-gay marriage? Voting against the definition of marriage and saying "leave it up to the states" is far from. A man who wants smaller government and doesn't think marriage should be a federal matter, or a state matter in his opinion, but a religious matter. But again, leave it up to the states.

You are referring to what? The D.C. bill? This is false because he voted against an amendment, the Largent of Oklahoma Amendment to HR2587 of the 106th Congress, which was "to prohibit any [federal] funding for the joint adoption of a child between individuals who are not related by blood or marriage." He also went on to vote against the entire funding bill.

Anti-universal health care? Um, yes? Have you ever been to a VA hospital? Canada? Gotta wait 9 months to see if you have cancer? The reason healthcare sucks now is because we have managed healthcare. Before the 1970s healthcare was much better, then the government, HMOs, etc etc. got involved and instead of doctor-patient relationships we have doctor-insurance/government-relationships. National Healthcare is the most overrated policy I've heard, and the fact that these insurance companies are lobbying for it as they have been for the past years tells me something.

So please, get the record straight before you go "anti-Paul".
