I bet he's for Newt.
Off-topic, but where does Thompson stand on spending? I was leaning toward Hunter, but after I saw that he was pro-pork, I reconsidered. Rudy is a gun-grabber, and McCain is a joke. Ugh.
Perhaps you could share where you saw that. I can't find it, other than a few detractors saying it is so.
According to Citizens against Government Waste, 'pork' is defined as :
A "pork" project is a line-item in an appropriations bill that designates tax dollars for a specific purpose in circumvention of established budgetary procedures, according to Citizens Against Government Waste.

They don't list Hunter as a 'porker'(earmarks). Please show us, other than spending on military for this war, where you find that Hunter is a porker.
Here's the list from 2001 of the porkers of the month. Lots of R's and D's there, but no Duncan Hunter or House Armed Services Committe, which he headed . They do show as porkers: Tommy Thompson, Sen. Robert Bennett, Sen. Joe Lieberman , Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.), Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison , Rep. John Peterson (R-Pa.) , Sen. John Thune,Reps. Tom DeLay , Sens. Hillary Clinton , Sen. Larry Craig
