Interesting...so, are you a Republican? Because, if you're not a Republican then maybe you should butt out of the REPUBLICAN Primary. And if you ARE a Republican, maybe you should stick to candidates who support the Party Platform. Did you know that support for the Federal Marriage Amendment is in the Republican Party Platform? Thompson's view is in opposition to the platform. Maybe you should consider that. Or not, if you're not a Republican. And if you're not, then I don't know what you're getting all worked up over. You shouldn't be voting in our primary anyway. If you are, then maybe you should stick to the platform.
Speaking of Republican Party Platform planks, I find it interesting that Fred Thompson is reported to have fought to REMOVE the Ronald Reagan Pro-Life plank from the GOP Platform. No wonder evangelicals and others who are pro-life aren't exactly thrilled with Thompson.
Umm, what of it? First of all, the party platform is generated each election cycle after the primaries have run, not before, so honestly, there isn’t a party platform at this instant. It’s this silly concept that the person running for president should have a say in it.
Second, what, I have to take some stupid loyalty oath to a document created by people I have zero say in their appointment? I’m a Republican, I’m a conservative, and couldn’t care less if it offends you or not.
Hi Spiff,Do you have link”s for this.”Fred Thompson is reported to have fought to REMOVE the Ronald Reagan Pro-Life plank from the GOP Platform.”
“Interesting...so, are you a Republican? Because, if you’re not a Republican then maybe you should butt out of the REPUBLICAN Primary.”
You mean if he is not a conservative that he does not belong here, because this is not a Republican web site.
That is one reason that Romney gets so little traction here, this is a conservative web site.
