I think that is rather obvious to most people.

Sunday, March 17, 2013 11:25 EDT.Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) on Friday introduced so-called “fetal personhood” legislation that would completely outlaw abortion in the United States.
The Life at Conception Act would declare that human life began at conception, providing fertilized eggs with the same legal status as born persons.
“The Life at Conception Act legislatively declares what most Americans believe and what science has long known – that human life begins at the moment of conception, and therefore is en led to legal protection from that point forward,” Paul said in a statement. “ The right to life is guaranteed to all Americans in the Declaration of Independence and ensuring this is upheld is the Cons utional duty of all Members of Congress.”
In a fundraising video for the National Pro-Life Alliance last year, the Republican senator explained that the bill would outlaw abortion without contradicting the Supreme Court’s landmark Roe v. Wade decision. Citing the ruling, Paul claimed Congress had the power to define when human life began under the 14th Amendment to the Cons ution

I think that is rather obvious to most people.
Better than being a murderer of innocent life.
OK, that was a few days ago. My search on his web site and Thomas, show no hits.
That is the "S" number please, so I can find it please?
Dan, I hate the laziness of people like you. You really should verify for accuracy something you link...
If you are going to post a link, please look up and verify what is said. Took me a several minutes to find it when the keywords in your link, “fetal personhood” failed.
Would it really outlaw abortion? Maybe, maybe not. I think it would only outlaw abortion on demand.

i guess i need to do more research on rand paul. my probation officer was raving about how he's going to be the next president.
Yes, really... even backstabbed his own father out of his undying love of Willard Romney's campaign, tbh....
Wild Cobra hates himself.
I don't blame him.
That's not what I meant. Learn to read moron![]()
I was responding to BB.
It's a real laugh tbh. Just got funnier.
I truly don't need you to laugh at Rand's selling out.
Certainly doesn't hurt though. Thanks!![]()
Don't project your shame of being an indirect Willard Romney supporter onto me, B....
Rand didn't have to back Romney.
Paul is my hero....not..

Rand Paul sold out. There is nothing more to it.
He wants in on the GOP and he now plays their game rather than his own. That is how the US two party system works and he is all in.
Really?
Have you read the whole text of the amendment, and know its full impact? Please... By all means... Enlighten us of what all the amendment does.
Truth bombs, son..... Rand will never be like his father, a REAL liberty supporter who refused to play the partisan game....
