“Abortion needs to be ILLEGAL in EVERY state - just like slavery.
I have NO DOUBT that our founders would NOT want abortion legal in ANY state.”
Take the word “abortion” out of the equation and look at the issue. It’s a clear states rights issue, as the Constitution provides no right to the feds in the issue of prosecuting crime beyond piracy and treason. Murder isn’t mentioned anywhere.
That said, I agree abortion shouldn’t be legal, but I don’t want the feds taking care of it.
That is exactly my position, and I believe that's the way Fred Thompson sees it.
“That said, I agree abortion shouldn’t be legal, but I don’t want the feds taking care of it.”
May I add, neither did the founders because they reserved no specific clause to abortion.
ok, if we assume Thompson is telling the truth and that he is really strongly pro-life but believes its a states rights issue as Thompson is claiming, is there any evidence of Thompson showing pro-life leadership in his own home state???
