First of all, it was 20 hours. Second, as a pro-lifer, I have spent all of zero hours promoting abortion. $5000 couldn't get me to work on a pro-abortion cause for 20 seconds. I'm not saint, but I value human life.
If Thompson felt strongly, he could have refused the assignment on the grounds that he wouldn't be the best person for it. The fact that the lobbying effort failed doesn't matter. If Thompson sabotaged the cause by doing a deliberately poor lobbying effort, then he is dishonest.
Looks like I'm going to have to vote Libertarian again.
Saint Libertarian:
So, Fred failed your perfection test? I am so shocked. Please go waste your vote on a Libertarian candidate as you were going to do in the first place. Enjoy the complete lack of effect (except to your sanctimonious ego) that your vote brings.
BTW. It’s just grand that you’re a pro-lifer. So am I, but unlike you, I was in the trenches. I have 4 children.
Why?
There aome candidates who are actually, really running for the presidency.
Have you examined Duncan Hunter’s record?
He is solid, consistent, prolife, direct, and real.
