Thanks, clo! I appreciate your taking the time to post that.

Ron Paul points out something that's literally true. The morning-after pill is, I believe, the same as certain birth control pills, but with at an elevated dose. Hormonally, it's the same.

However, I'm not sure of his point. If one is okay, so is the other? Hardly! Apple seeds contain a glycoside that breaks down in the body to form cyanide. You can eat them all day, though, without any effect because the dose per seed is so small. But concentrate them, and the result is deadly.

It's no crime to feed a person apple seeds. Some cultures even use them medicinally - remember laetrile? But do the same with a concentrate, and suddenly it's murder.

Ethically the same? Hardly. So, as I said, I'm not sure what Ron Paul is getting at. I'll have to read your whole link later. (I've got class in a few minutes. I'm currently on a school computer.)

I located a reference.
I appreciated he debunked the others calling it the 'abortion pill', since its NOT.

Texas Congressman Ron Paul pointed out that, as an obstetrician, he has medical experience with birth control pills and contraception. Obama's birth control mandate, though, is due to the government taking over health care, according to Paul.

"This is a consequence of the fact that the government has control of medical care and medical insurance and then we fight over how we dictate how this will be distributed," Paul said.

Paul also argued that if the birth control pill is legal then the morning-after pill should also be legal because "they're basically the same hormonally."
