When your guy can’t even call a press conference, with only ONE reporter showing up for it AFTER they found out about it on the internet, and expect to do well in a straw poll in Texas, it makes me wonder how serious he is about being leader of the free world......not serious enough.

Even before he went into the Senate, Fred's position on abortion was libertarian, which means no tax dollars for it & ultimately it should be decided by the states.

Anyone who implies that Fred is pro-abortion, as some FReepers suggested that Ron Paul was pro-abortion because he voted no on a couple of pro-life bills that would have done more harm than good to the pro-life cause, should have their posting privileges suspended.

Paul has always been pro-life. Fred has, well, you know the story.

“Anyone who implies that Fred is pro-abortion....”

I wouldn’t necessarily say that Fred is PRO-ABORTION, any more than I would say he’s PRO-LIFE.

The statement he made that.... the ultimate decision to have an abortion “must be made by the woman. Government should treat its citizens as adults capable of making moral decisions on their own.”...imo, puts Fred squarely PRO-CHOICE.

Unfortunately, I can’t remember the site. I tried to search FR, but there are so many FT threads it’s next to impossible.

>>Thompson is not on their side because of friggin eleven year old position papers describing each side of the issue<<

This just tells me the man has the capacity to take an objective look at an issue and make the right decision. I don't think you could find many rats out there who could even begin to comprehend pro life position.

The net result, I now have more respect for the former Senator.

This kind of “pro-life” candidate will be hard to paint as threatening, and will get plenty of cross-over votes from those who are moderately pro-choice.

Yet his positions, if enacted, would do more to restrict abortions than the past several Republican President were able to achieve.

I’ll concede that is a fair point.
