I’m not a fan of half truths any more than lies… because lets face it, a half truth is a lie. So I came across this the post on facebook the other day:
=========================================
– Delivered 4,000 babies, never lost a mother, never performed an
abortion, never lost a child.
– Is a practicing, Southern Baptist Christian
– Has TWO brothers that are practicing Christian ministers
– Supports Israel’s sovereignty and Independence from foreign influence
and their right to defend themselves
– Is Morally opposed to abortion and legally opposed to Roe V. Wade as it
pertains to state’s rights and Federal power
– Has NEVER voted for a tax increase
– Is opposed to pre-meditated mass murder through aggressive war and
invasion.
WHERE IS RON PAUL? WHO IS RON PAUL?
What do YOU … believe?
========================================
Not a bad sentiment… and some of it is true. However, fighting for the cause of Ron Paul and liberty, we can’t be caught spreading half truths, lies, or deception just to swing sentiment in our favor. I actually just about reposted it to my wall before I spotted something terribly false in the first statement. So I left a message on this fellow Ron Paul supporters post “Several children were lost under Ron Paul’s practice… Some times there is nothing anyone can do, not even Dr. Paul. He never charged a family if they lost their child though, that does set him apart from other doctors.” The admin of the page deleted the post… but not before accusing me of lies, deception, and having no proof for my horrendous claim and attempt to smear Ron Paul’s name. I found it a little bit odd but felt the need to reply again, with some “evidence” I had seen earlier in the campaign that supports what I just said.
Do you really believe that since 1969 when Dr. Paul opened his clinic he never saw a “still born” child? Really? You believe it so much to not even give time for someone to respond before you delete their comments?
The first statement of this cannot be validated. It’s a good sentiment and if you shorten it to “-Delivered 4,000+ babies, and never performed an abortion” it would be true. He’s said many times that he’s never found a case where performing an abortion would save the mothers life (as many left wing folks claim is so frequently necessary… or at least they bring it up as an example every time abortion bans are brought up). Doesn’t mean he never lost a child, or necessarily that he never lost a mother. I don’t have any documentation on whether or not he ever lost a mother, patient doctor confidentiality blocks those records, as you would hope that they would. I do have a testimony from a man who had a still born child under Dr. Paul’s care… which would make your ridiculous effort to cover up the truth naive, foolish, and counter productive towards the Ron Paul Revolution. You should never fear truth… truth can only do harm to those who have been dishonest.

So maybe I was a little bit harsh in the reply, but also didn’t find it necessary for a supposed truth lover to accuse me of hating truth before deleting my post.
