"Ultimately, the attempt to portray Fred Thompson as another Johnny-come-lately to the pro-life cause is the result of the desperation of the Romney camp- a desperation well founded in reality."

I'm sure that the Romney people had those articles planted in National Review et al back in 1994 so they could use them this year.

You're losing here and you could show everyone you have capacity to realize that fact.

FDT never said he was pro-choice. He said he was against (federal) government involvement in abortion.

Before Roe vs. Wade the federal government was not involved in abortion issues. It was a States rights issue. The abortionists very much want the federal government to be involved by enforcing abortion rights.

So your whole logic is twisted.

FDT was saying he's in favor of returning to the policy of non-involvement of the federal government in abortion, meaning he is favor of overturning Roe vs. Wade.

It is Roe vs. Wade that forces the federal government to sanction abortion, to the absurd point that it is funded as a public health measure.

I also believe the federal government should have no say in abortion issues and I am pro-life.

No. They were planted by the likes of AP and The Memphis Appeal in 1994 without any direct quotes from Fred, not to mention numerous blogs on the left and right in 2007.
