Here are Thompson’s actions / comments that have given me the impression that Thompson either does not like social conservatives or at least does not share our values. His comments about not attending church and not wanting to talk about his faith, his statement that he didn’t march to anyones drumn (when asked about trying to patch things up with Dobson.) His willingness in the past to have given legal advice / lobbied (possibly?) for a pro-abortion group, his willingness to support Dole’s effort to remove the pro-life plank from the Republican Platform, his oppossition to the Federal Marriage Amendment, His use of the democrats talking points when he equated laws against abortion with criminalizing young women, his opposition to the federal marriage amendment, and last but certainly not least, his comments about Terri Schievo where he went so far as to say that he “resent[ed], frankly, the political football that’s been made out of all that, and, and it’s unfortunate. The less government, the better.”
You are spreading LIES about Fred Thompson. I told you on another thread that it was TOMMY Thompson, not FRED Thompson, who supported Dole’s watering down of the abortion plank in the Republican platform. I also pointed out that Fred voted for the federal Defense of Marriage Act. Both are issues of public record. You are knowingly telling LIES.
Is LYING a social conservative value as far as you are concerned? If you have reasons for not liking Fred, that’s fine, but stop purposely confusing him with others and LYING about his record.
