Freds just telling it like it is. We aren’ty going to throw 13 year old lawbreakers in prison. If that causes people to freak out, then too bad.
Vote for Julie-Annie instead.

My, my, aren't Thompson supporters cocky? Pro-life voters don't owe Fred anything, and the specter of Giuliani isn't enough to earn Thompson anyone's automatic support. Before Roe v. Wade, it was possible for a state to impose criminal penalties on an abortionist and an individual who procured an abortion. A lot of pro-life voters would have no qualms about reinstating such a system. Anyone who commits infanticide or other forms of homicide faces criminal penalties, etc., why should in utero murderers get a pass?

You're missing the point.

The point is, pro-lifers aren't looking to throw 13 year-old girls into prison either--and Fred, like Rudy, KNOWS it.

This is a classic strawman argument cynically used by the abortion industry and its minions to generate emotion and anger among voters.

The point is, Fred has adopted the phony-baloney fear mongering of the abortion industry to justify his do-nothing fence-straddling stance on abortion. He's hiding his true laissez-faire pro-abort intentions behind a federalism fig leaf--just LIKE Rudy.

The point cannot be stressed enough: for all intents and purposes, the stances of Fred and Rudy on abortion are indistinguishable.

I wonder if all these anti-Fred critics would feel better if he would of said this instead:

“We Need to have a (federal) law” that “will take young, young girls ... and put them in jail.”

That doesn't freak me out either -- we put the doctors performing abortions in jail - just like we used to do.

Yep. I’d rather see terrorists and illegals get law enforcement attention.

We don't throw 13-year olds in jail for killing already-born human beings...

If one believes abortion is an act of murder, one believe the punishment should fit the crime.

Fred's position is absurd. He would never call for the repeal of the 15th amendment, which forced states to allow all citizens regardless of race to vote. But, he doesn't think an amendment requiring all states to recognize the right to life of all citizens is something that should be forced on the states.

The polls show he has blown it. And, that is too bad because it likely leaves us those opposed to Giuliani with a choice of Romney or Huckabee.

Bully :D ...This is even better, being frank with friends/foes alike (He's not sugar-coating the issues)....He is being very pragmatic.
