Fred Thompson voted for McCain-Feingold and is a lawyer.

Fred has since voiced the opinion that CFR probably needs to be replaced with full disclosure. Unlike Rudy, who still like is.

Fred has since voiced the opinion that CFR probably needs to be replaced with full disclosure. Unlike Rudy, who still like is.

When a politician change positions, the supporters call it 'growth and development'.

When a politician changes positions, the opposition calls it 'flipflopping.'

An honest change of opinion has to be proved, not just voiced. Otherwise, it smacks of hypocrisy in the same manner as Kerry's 'I voted for it before I voted against it'.

Thompson was chairman of the committee that wrote CFR, so his involvement ware more than just casting a vote. He was instrumental in the content and design of the bill. He has to offer a more convincing 'change of opinion' before I am convinced that this change of heart is anything more than a politicial move.
