[National Right to Life] The Stephen Douglas of the 2008 race
WorldNetDaily.com ^ | Wednesday, November 28, 2007 | Jill Stanek

A week before the National Right to Life Committee endorsed Fred Thompson, I blogged he had disqualified himself from my list of presidential primary picks following his Nov. 4 interview on "Meet the Press" with Tim Russert.

During those moments, Thompson revealed he's in the same death camp as Rudy Giuliani, just with more exceptions.

Between that interview and one on Nov. 18 on "This Week" with George Stephanopoulos, NRLC endorsed Thompson and clearly tried to tutor him.

But it failed. Thompson unsuccessfully tried to pull one of three coffin nails he'd hammered two weeks prior, while he pounded another harder. I was left more curious than before about NRLC's decision...

dangus says: “No, Jill doesn’t know what the hell she is talking about, and apparently has never read a single bloody thing about Abraham Lincoln or Steven Douglas.

Lincoln absolutely took a State’s-Rights view on slavery; it’s only a bunch of confederate hicks trying to justify their ancestors’ treachery and abominations that say otherwise. But Lincoln and the Confederate slave-holders both knew that the plantation system would be doomed if decent, Christian Americans ever took a very deep look at the institution of slavery.

Thompson’s answers are nearly Lincoln’s verbatim. And I suspect that’s by design.”

Hmm. I’d like to see that Lincoln/Thompson parallel dialog. By Fred’s logic, Abe should’ve kept the Emancipation Proclamation to himself.

It’s valid to fight on all fronts; the states, federal legislation and the courts. How about a presidential emancipation proclamation for the unborn? Robert George hinted at that: http://www.clmagazine.org/backissues/2006janfeb_14-17notimetolose.pdf

I forget where I saw/heard/read that, however, i do believe one of his campaign staff is on record saying that if the HLA was to come across his desk, he would sign it.

Of course he would. Moot point though, the HLA is years away at best.

I have read what he’s actually said. I’m glad you love spoon fed people, I do too. I spoon feed my baby daughter.
