HOUSTON, Texas (CNN) – A woman screaming “you’re not a real conservative, sir” was removed by police from a welcoming reception for likely GOP presidential candidate Fred Thompson Wednesday morning. A second protester was also taken from the room.
Houston police officers escorted the woman — as well as a man — from the hangar at Hobby Airport, where Thompson was shaking hands with a crowd of supporters. They were not arrested.
The woman questioned Thompson as he talked to reporters. She asked him why he was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and noted that the organization supported the North American Union with Canada and Mexico.

As I suspected - you are a nut defending another nut.
If we must be considered a nut to defend the Constitutional rights of all citizens, then so be it.
Kindly tell why you take this stance.
“When asked about the CFR’s plans for a NAU...
laughs....”I didn’t know they were up to that”
Not yet ready for prime time.”
Lou Dobbs, Glen Beck, Roger Hedgecock and others have reported on this now. Fred dismisses it with a joke.
I would have thought Fred would have either said:
1) It’s a completely unfounded rumor that’s been circulating. There is no NAU and here’s why...
-OR-
2) It’s true and I am 100% totally against it.
I’m not sure if I can vote for Fred if he refuses to answer questions about stuff in the MSM.
