A pity that Fred Thompson, a candidate, rejects those "guidelines."
He's just making the point that the 'guideline' about the HLA is getting us nowhere. He has an alternate plan that CAN work; if he's given the chance to implement it.
What you are refering to is a PLANK not a Platform. And it was a plank in the 2004 platform, not the 2008 platform. As such you can't draw any inference that Fred Thompson "rejects those 'guidelines'." The most you can say is that Fred does not agree with the 2004 Platform abortion plank. And neither do I, for some VERY good reasosn, which you don't care about. So be it. But at least I'm grounded in reality.
