”The possibility that Bopp may be receiving payment for his advisory services would readily explain his gushing endorsement, which both defies fact and logic, but it does not excuse it.”

”As for Bopp's support of Romney and his status as a paid campaign consultant: Shouldn't such a detail be made public to those who would otherwise trust such an endorsement as a heartfelt expression of someone concerned with the best interest of the pro-life movement, rather than a politically expedient offering awarded to the highest bidder?“

”Such information might better inform the public how much weight they should give Bopp's support of Romney. And it also might illuminate what such a betrayal costs: 10, 20 or perhaps 30 pieces of silver?”

__________________________________________

Joseph R. Giganti included the above words in this vicious article that he authored on Feb. 17, 2007 implying that the good name and impressive pro-life credentials of James Bopp, Jr. were up for sale to the highest bidder.

National Review Online recently published an article written by James Bopp, Jr., titled “The Best Choice Is Also a Good Choice - Why social conservatives should support Mitt Romney for president”. At the bottom of the article appears the following footnote (my emphasis added):

— James Bopp Jr. is a lawyer who focuses on nonprofit corporate and tax law, on campaign finance and election law, and on life issues. He most recently joined the Romney Presidential campaign as a special adviser on life issues, an unpaid position.
I note that the online version of Giganti's hit piece now has this statement:

Editor's note: Following the publication of this column, James Bopp Jr. said he is a volunteer and not a paid campaign consultant for the Romney campaign.

Joseph R. made a Giganti mistake in slandering Jim Bopp with the scurrilous, unfounded accusations in this article published at WorldNetDaily. Giganti should apologize to Jim Bopp and to all his WND readers for smearing a great man whose good name is synonymous with the pro-life movement in the U.S.A.

Email to Joseph R. Giganti should be addressed to: joe@veritasmediagroup.com

Okay. Let's ask you: Are you a paid campaign operative for Mitt Romney's campaign?

Whether he's being paid or not doesn't change the fact that he's sold out the pro-life movement by supporting the guy on the VIDEO below:

Mitt Romney - 2002 - vociferous support for abortion

So we conclude that Jim Bopp is unpaid because he *claims* he's unpaid? Yeah, he's *volunteering* his services out of the goodness of his heart. Man, sometimes people's sheer naivete amazes me.

Yeah, he should. But I won't hold my breath.
