So the time line of when we consider a fetus 'human' is arbitrary after conception.

The president and other government officials denounce school violence, yet still advocate for endless undeclared wars abroad and easy abortion at home. U.S. drone strikes kill thousands, but nobody in America holds vigils or devotes much news coverage to those victims, many of which are children, albeit, of a different color.

Maybe we ought to consider a Golden Rule in foreign policy: Don't do to other nations what we don't want happening to us. We endlessly bomb these countries and then we wonder why they get upset with us?

The federal government cannot maintain a budget surplus any more than an alcoholic can leave a fresh bottle of whiskey untouched in the cupboard.
Ron Paul

The Fourth Amendment is clear we should be secure in our persons, houses, papers, and effects, and all warrants must have probable cause. Today the government operates largely in secret, while seeking to know everything about our private lives - without probable cause and without a warrant.

There's nothing wrong with being a Conservative and coming up with a Conservative believe in foreign policy where we have a strong national defense and we don't go to war so carelessly.

A failing state cannot stop a revolution whose time has come.

I have my shortcomings. But the message, it has no shortcomings. The message of Liberty is what America is all about.
Ron Paul
Image
We must remember, elections are short-term efforts. Revolutions are long-term projects.
Ron Paul
Image
We can achieve much more in peace than we can ever achieve in these needless, unconstitutional, undeclared wars.
Ron Paul
Image
Ideas are the only things that count, and politicians are, for the most part, pretty much irrelevant.
Ron Paul
Image
Whether [the 1993 World Trade Center bombing] was a setup by the Israeli Mossad, as a Jewish friend of mine suspects, or was truly a retaliation by the Islamic fundamentalists, matters little.
Ron Paul
Image
I take my marching orders from the Constitution.
Ron Paul
Image
This much is true: you have been lied to.
Ron Paul
Image
We have depended on government for so much for so long that we as people have become less vigilant of our liberties. As long as the government provides largesse for the majority, the special interest lobbyists will succeed in continuing the redistribution of welfare programs that occupies most of Congress's legislative time.

There should essentially be no limits to the voluntary definition of marriage.

If we are not even free anymore to decide something as basic as what we wish to eat or drink, how much freedom do we really have left?

We need a smaller and elite military, as [Donald]Rumsfeld said - and also a smaller and elite foreign policy.
