“Fred believes life begins at conception and abortion is the taking of a human life.”
No, he does not. Murder is banned in all fifty states, if a state tryed to change that, the federal government would rightly step in. If he trully believes “abortion is the taking of human life” he would take steps as president to ensure it ends in all 50 states. His rhetoric is double talk. I do not mean to insult Senator Thompson or his supporters by saying this. I just believe he is engaging in the usual “waffle” to avoid taking sides. He can’t have it both ways. The most of the moral base of the GOP will not activilly support a candidate that holds such a “fence sitting” position. I’m not even sure they will passively support him either. He is killing his chances to win the primary. Votes that could go to him, will go to Huckabee or Hunter (neither of which can win) and it will result in Guiliani winning the primary but causing the moral GOP base to defect in a general election.
Senator Thompson could be a fine president, but he sucks as a candidate.
>>>>>Senator Thompson could be a fine president...
Thanks, he will be. Get use to it.
