To: Fred

BTW, does anybody know which two votes the are saying Fred took that were NOT oppose to pro-choice?

My guess is his votes for Title X.

And apparently NRLC did not think those votes were anti-pro-life votes.

But I don’t know.

It could be McCain-Feingold. As I've pointed out to the folks who like to tout the NRLC "scorecards" of Thompson not being perfectly rated, McCain-Feingold was pretty much universally a "negative" scorecard mark for all advocacy groups, making the vote really neither inherently pro- or con- any particular position not directly related to the CFR issue.

I think they are referring to his votes in favor of McCain-Feingold when National Right to Life had defined voting against McCain-Feingold as being key pro-life vote. If you read the entire article as opposed to the short excerpt that I was able to include it becomes more clear.
