Does he believe that the right to life of the innocent [those unconvicted of a capital crime] is unalienable from conception to natural death?
That’s the biggie. There are others.
THOMPSON: Pro-life.
WALLACE: Do you want to overturn Roe vs. Wade?
THOMPSON: I think Roe vs. Wade was bad law and bad medical science. And the way to address that is through good judges. I don't think the court ought to wake up one day and make new social policy for the country. It's contrary to what it's been the past 200 years. We have a process in this country to do that. Judges shouldn't be doing that. That's what happened in that case. I think it was wrong.
You said there is "a ton of questions about his abortion position..." What is the problem? What is the "ton of questions about Fred and his abortion position"?

Thompson said Roe v. Wade was bad law. That means the questions you raise would be decided by state and local laws. The protection of the unborn from extermination would be protected by state and local laws.
That's how it was done throuh out the history of this country up until Roe v. Wade. States passed laws against abortionists -- abortionists were throw in jail.
The federal government fails to best protect life.
Now, what's the problem?
