Did I say anything about his voting? Well yes I did on our last thread. That is: Voting for restrictions on abortion does NOT make someone pro-life, especially if you are pro-choice as Fred was at least thru the 1996 election.

It appears that there is an attempt to create confusion regarding former Senator Fred Thompson’s pro-life position.
You can go to National Right to Life’s website to see Senator Thompson’s voting record against abortion, euthanasia, and experimentation on unborn babies’ bodies. As you can see, Senator Thompson had an excellent pro-life voting record while in the U.S. Senate.
I am concerned that someone may be misleading you about his record. Regardless, I assure you it was not from National Right to Life. National Right to Life PAC supported Senator Thompson for the U.S. Senate in 1994 and 1996, and considered him to be a very pro-life Senator.
Senator Thompson has since reaffirmed his pro-life position. I am attaching a link to the statement he made to the National Right to Life Convention:

Thank you for your interest and concern on this critical issue.

This excerpt seems to be in conflict with your comment in post #160: especially if you are pro-choice as Fred was at least thru the 1996 election.
