I was a pro-choicer until sometime in '88 or '89. I'm a pro-life activist, help out my local pregnancy center and county pro-life committee. If I run for president, will you say I suck next to Duncan Hunter? Even if I were a Senator with a 100% pro-life voting record and numerous pro-life endorsements?
I like Hunter too, but it's time to get a grip and stop treating people as some sort of pariah because they were smart enough to come around to the right side.
Number one: I don’t use language like that.
Number two: I’ve known who I was since I was 16 years old, and have ALWAYS been pro-life. I cannot imagine changing my opinion on abortion. Though, of course,I am glad when pro-choicers change their view on this method of murder, where were they before that change, and what views have NOT changed? Your conversion is wonderful, Mr. Silverback. Bless you for that.
I NEVER implied that Fred Thompson -——! I just consider the facts of what a candidate has done, or not done, to arrive at my conclusions. By the way, I’ve asked other Thompson backers to list Thompson’s qualifications for the presidency and have yet to get a reply. His height and name recognition may be important in a golf match or track meet, but those winners take their cups and go home. A winning candidate is around for four to eight years, making a difference in our lives. The guy with most of the marbles should win.
