He's for liberty until he's not. How convenient.
Paulbots are tiresome.
Well.... read what he said when he introduced the bill. I just read the legislation.

Mr. PAUL - "Mr. Speaker, I rise today the Sanctity of Life Act. This legislation provides that the federal courts of the United States, up to and including the Supreme Court, do not have jurisdiction to hear abortion-related cases. Since the Supreme Court invented a "right'' to abortion in Roe v. Wade, federal judges have repeatedly thwarted efforts by democratically elected officials at the state and local level to protect the unborn."
Yes he is pro-life, and I don't really agree with that. But still his stance is more pro-choice (for the states), then prohibiting abortion.
