Fred Thompson says gay rights should be left up to the states. That's called a punt. :)

Fred's a federalist. He was the only Senator to vote against uniform national blood alcohol levels for DUI. He thinks just about everything is up to the states. Which is refreshing considered how everyone else seems to be about centralized power.

You mean he took the time to read and understand this:

Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
