Just because my sarcasm detector went off a little I'll direct you to Open Secrets, a website that gets donor information directly from the FCC. Here's a link to some information on Ron Paul. You can poke around a bit to find more information.

That data seems to conflict with the info I grabbed from the FEC... I don't think either are entirely accurate re: this question.
 
That abortion question was excellent. Journey is my hero. Ron Paul's anti-abortion stance is going to hurt him.
EDIT: NOw rudy is giving the same answer. Throwing it to the states is retarded.

Excellent question, Paul's answer kinda sux.

I dunno, it's pretty much what he believes, the federal government shouldn't be involved. It's a tough one to answer if they want more information than that.:lol

Where in the constitution do you see federal authority to regulate abortion either to allow it or ban it? It should be left up to the states to ban or allow it. That's a perfectly legitimate answer.
 
So amazing that I'm watching people answer what should be the penalty for abortions when abortions are made illegal...

And Rudy shows why he's the only Republican I could ever support...

I dunno, it's not like anyone else on the stage is really pro-abortion at all:P

Stoney: You realize Rudy said the exact same thing as everyone else, send it back to the states, heh.

That wasn't the question.

The question was, "If it becomes illegal, what should the punishment be for women who engage in it?"

And he said the mother should not be punished. And if you're going to overturn Roe v Wade and make it illegal, I think that is bullshit.

These guys keep passing Roe v Wade to the states. Take a stand!

That is a stand. It's called recognizing what the federal government can and cannot do. Kind of like asking "I don't like my state's sales tax, what are you going to do about that if YOU become president?"
 
Man, Huckabee was hoping that question came up, he's been sitting on this speech for a while. It's carrying well though.

Hmm.. shows my understanding of the legal system. :D
 
You didn't answer the question, WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?

Weird.:lol

"Do you believe everything in "this book""

What a weirdo and weird way to ask this question.

LOL Tancredo.

Hey wait a second.....Rudy hasn't mentioned 9/11 yet has he?

At the end yes, but he said he wouldn't pass the bill which was what the question was. Every other guy on that stage would gladly do it. Except for Ron Paul maybe but for different reasons.

Either way these aren't my candidates so you can't take my comments seriously.

Hey I understand, it's kind of weird if you think about it, most politicians will resist at every opportunity to admit there are SOME constitutional issues, especially the thorniest issues that are better left to the states and refuse to recognize the Constitution places any limit on their authority to manage certain issues.
 
Translation: The parts of the Bible that support the GOP agenda are the unequivocal word of God, everything else is open to interpretation.
 
Yeah Mitt really waffled there.

"Do you believe the words of the Bible?"
"I believe it is the word of God"
"But.....do you believe it?'
"I believe it is the word of God"
 
Yeah I'm starting to like Huckabee a lot.

Like mentioned though, Republicans spend WAY to much time debating abortion. Ron Paul actually made a decent point for once, when he said its up to the states to decide that.

Republicans need to focus on the economy, national security and immigration if they want to defeat the Dems in 08'.
