I don’t support the Roe vs. Wade ruling, much less federal funded abortion on demand, but I’m not the least bit enthusiastic about federal bills or amendments that are far less likely to pass than anti-abortion bills at the state level that they are meant to supercede. The “life begins at conception” debate does nothing but give so-called moderates of both parties the cop-out they need to allow the march towards government funded abortion on demand to continue unimpeded. What has the anti-abortion crowd in DC accomplished in the last 40 years? Count the number of dead babies since then and find out for yourself. Some of Paul’s statements regarding foreign policy and a few of his supporters don’t appeal to me, but sniping by the pro-life establishment just makes me bored.
