August 21, 2012 journal, the real advocate for the sanctity of life legislation is Ron Paul. I do not find Paul Ryan introducing any bills in Congress to save babies from abortion. Sanctity of Life recognizes life at conception as a human being with constitutional rights. Rep Ron Paul has introduced this legislation multi times but it always gets sidetracked. The first Paul bill, H.R. 776, was introduced on February 10, 2005, and again referred to the Judiciary committee, which referred it to the Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property on April 4, 2005. It had five cosponsors. On February 15, 2007, Paul reintroduced the Act in the 110th Congress, with four cosponsors; he reintroduced another version with the same name on June 6, 2007, with five cosponsors. The bills, H.R. 1094 and H.R. 2597, were referred to the Judiciary committee. The committee referred the first bill to the Subcommittee on the Constitution on March 19, 2007, and the second bill to the Subcommittee on Courts on July 16, 2007; both bills expired in subcommittee. In 2009, Paul reintroduced another version of the bill H.R. 2533 with one cosponsor. Ron Paul introduced it again in March 2011, as H.R. 1096, for the 112th Congress (2011-2012).[15][edit]Pro-life advocacy Paul's reintroduction of the bill was introduced the same year as the We the People Act, which would have removed "any claim based upon the right of privacy, including any such claim related to any issue of ... reproduction" from federal court jurisdiction. After neither bill passed the 109th Congress, the GayWired internet portal criticized Paul's legislation, saying that "the woman bearing the fetus is also an individual whose rights seem less important to Paul than those of the fetus or the state government."[16] Paul spoke passionately about his pro-life position, which includes his introduction of the Sanctity of Life Act, while campaigning for U.S. president in 2007, such as in Lawton, Iowa.[17] In 2011 and 2012, Ron Paul pointed to the Sanctity of Life Act to demonstrate his commitment to pro-life principles.[18] Paul Dorr of nearby Ocheyedan became Paul's Iowa campaign field coordinator because of Paul's strong pro-life stance, stating that unlike other Republicans, Paul does not abandon his position while in office; Paul's sponsorship of the Sanctity of Life Act was immediately cited.[19] When Paul mentioned the legislation in a personal "Statement of Faith",[20] CBN News White House correspondent David Brody noted that Paul was an exception to the pattern of the 2008 Republican candidates for president not engaging in "God talk".[21][dead link] The California Catholic Daily also cited Paul as "abortion's 'unshakeable foe'" with the Act as evidence.[22] On January 22, 2008, the 35th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, Norma McCorvey ("Jane Roe"), now a pro-life activist, endorsed Paul for president based on his authorship of the Sanctity of Life Act and the We the People Act.[23]" "The Sanctity of Life Act was a bill first introduced in the United States House of Representatives by Rep. Steve Stockman (R-TX) on July 20, 1995, and cosponsored by Rep. Barbara Cubin (R-WY). It was reintroduced with similar text by Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) in 2005 in the 109th United States Congress[1] , 110th United States Congress[2] [3] , and 111th United States Congress[4] , and the 112th United States Congress[5] . The repeatedly introduced bill sparked advocacy from pro-life activists and opposition from pro-choice activists.[6] Paul Ryan wants to reduce Social Security payments and time plus privatize medicare. This would more than likely double or triple the insurance payments to maintain care. Paul Ryan like most of Congress does not really care how much all the people suffer. Out of 12 issues against Rep. Paul Ryan published immediately after his battleship in appearance, although one is positive and that is the sanctity of life claim if he is serious. Any good Catholic should be of the same mind but Teddy Kennedy put his politics first. Otherwise he is the good old boy owned by the criminal murdering bankers of Congress. http://www.ccel.us/Swindoll.toc.html Here's straight talk you wouldn't have heard from the pulpit 50 years ago. Even five years ago. In fact, it is the first time this well known pastor speaks out on the inescapable issue of our day: abortion. While Sanctity of Life decries society's penchant for abortion on demand, the book is more than just another call for legislative action. Instead, Chuck Swindoll wants his words to help Christians "get their arms around" the nation's most divisive issue, reach out to women and their families who are enduring the aftermath of a bad decision, and then move beyond the tension of the issue to join in a plea for lifetime morality. Chuck Swindoll believes that the 1990's is not the time for Christians to slacken their efforts either in opposing abortion or in advocating moral purity. Now is the moment for renewed vigor in social action and, above all, godly living. Sanctity of Life is a book on resolve, courage, and compassion. It is not the last word on abortion, but it is the definitive position on moral living for Christians today. CHUCK SWINDOLL was senior pastor of the First Evangelical Free Church in Fullerton, California from 1971 to 1994. He is the author of such bestselling books as Dropping Your Guard, Strengthening Your Grip, Living On the Ragged Edge, and Living Above the Level of Mediocrity, and his radio ministry "Insight For Living" is heard around the world every day of the week.

Sanctity of Life:" Robert Reich, Op-Ed: Ryan's views are pure social Darwinism. As William Graham Sumner, the progenitor of social Darwinism in America, put it in the 1880s: "Civilization has a simple choice." It's either "liberty, inequality, survival of the fittest" or "not-liberty, equality, survival of the unfittest. The former carries society forward and favors all its best members; the latter carries society downwards and favors all its wars.
