It's not a leftie slant at all. Not everything you disagree with is a "leftie slant". I'm not going to get bogged down in a gun rights argument.
As far digging holes goes; I am NOT going to hide my opinion because someone less than desirable people hurl juvenile insults at me.
Being vile toward people, calling them names, and personal attacks is truely a leftie thing to do.
The truth of the matter is, if Fred Thompson is innocent of any wrong doing in this matter...cool.
Reading through the responses and gauging the type of people that are supporting Fred is.....eye opening.
The TRUTH of the matter is that even if the facts alleged are true, there has been NO wrongdoing.
If Thompson received any contributions that are earmarked as "campaign" contributions, they would have to be set aside - basically they would have to be earmarked for the election campaign and not used for the "testing the waters" phase.
It appears that Thompson has followed this to the letter, but a few nummnuttz on the left and some Romneyite fire-engine-chasing-dogs have been working hard to turn this around and make it look like something the very opposite of what it actually is.
"I'm pro-life; it would be great if we could just leave it at that." - Mitt Romney

The nuances of Romney’s abortion views don’t impress critics, who say he’s shifted his position to suit his need to curry favor with the GOP’s social conservatives.
“What we tell everybody is that no matter where they stand on the issue of choice, he or she should question where Mitt Romney stands,” said Kelly O’Bryan, a spokeswoman for NARAL Pro-Choice Massachusetts.
O’Bryan recalled Romney telling her abortion rights group during an interview amid his 2002 gubernatorial campaign, “I will not allow any chipping away at Roe v. Wade.” She said notes of the Sept. 26, 2002, meeting also reflect Romney saying, “You need someone in Washington like me.” At the time, Romney said that while he personally opposed abortion, he would not only support Roe, but block any state action to undercut abortion rights.
Angus McQuilken, spokesman for the Massachusetts chapter of the Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund, cited similar statements to his group both during the gubernatorial race and Romney’s 1994 U.S. Senate campaign.
“The issue with Romney has always been his credibility,” said McQuilken. “His current platform on abortion rights is just the latest in a long line of contradictions. What voters need to know about Mitt Romney is this: Where he stands on any issue is always a moving target.”
Well, considering you said this:
And by the less than intelligent responses on this thread I wouldn't trust any of you with any thing more dangerous than a fork with a cork on the end.
You just confirmed that you are a liberal. And a gun-grabbing one at that.
