Forward Progressives — Not The Onion: Rand Paul’s Appallingly Ridiculous Claim about Science and Abortion

One slight problem with the following article, which Rachel Maddow aptly points out, it fails to mention that Paul lifted his Gattaca spiel from Wikipedia
When it comes to Republican politicians I absolutely can’t stand, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul is right near the top of that list. And let’s be honest here, the only reason he’s even a senator is because of who his dad is. Rand tries to piggy back off the “Paul-bot” cult-like following his dad built, while still trying to pander enough to the other radicals in the Republican party in hopes that all of it will someday culminate in a successful presidential bid.

Well, while speaking at a “Christian” school founded by the late Jerry Falwell, Rand “tea party darling” Paul took his pandering to the far right fanatics to a whole new level.

Paul spoke out and suggested that scientific advances in technology and medicine, combined with abortion, may one day lead to the return of eugenics.

What’s eugenics, you ask? It’s the process by which the human race might try to “perfect” itself by eliminating less than desirable traits.
