He looks to be treating the pro-life cause as a federalism type issue rather than a deeply held conviction. That may not be the case but the questionnaire raises the question: Just how much of a priority will the life issue be for a President Fred Thompson?

The President takes an oath to uphold the Constitution and the laws of the United States not his "deeply held convictions". The reason the Constitution has been trampled on for so many years is that too many politicians in the Federal Government have used moral issues to exceed the authority given them. If Fred Thomson believes there should be no federal law against abortion he is exactly right.

No, he is applying the final hammerblows to the cornerstone of American liberty.
