Reply #13: Dr. Ron Paul is a lying obstetrician/gynecologist.

He's practiced in Lake Jackson, TX, for about four decades.


He stated he's never had a pregnant patient with a life-threatening pregnancy. That is statistically impossible.


That would mean that out of thousands of pregnant women, NOT ONE has had an ectopic pregnancy? The Fallopian tube and zygote must be removed or it will explode and kill the woman.


He's had NOT ONE who needed a late term abortion because of fetal malformations, such as anencephaly?

Or because of cardiac insufficiency by the mother?


For that matter, he's had NOT ONE patient who had to have a C-section to save the life of the mother AND the baby? I had to have a C-section, which requires a skilled surgeon, or I and my daughter would both be DEAD, no doubt about it. There is no way I could deliver a normal baby let alone the healthy 8 pounder I had. I'm a small person. Simple mechanical obstruction. Baby's head is much larger than the hole in the pelvis. Simple.


Somewhere between five and ten percent of women need a C-section or they will die or be exhausted from labor and the baby will get hypoxia from prolonged labor and possible brain damage.


I can't stand these people who think pregnancy and delivery is just a walk in the park, and they play amateur obstetrician.


Why do these Libertarians think the government should interfere in women's reproductive decisions?
