Actually Fred’s postion on this issue is the one I have held for years. Naturally, I think it is logical, sensible, and defensible.
I really like the way Fred put it; something to the effect that people are free to enact laws that even Fred Thompson doesn’t like. Speaking for myself, there are PLENTY of laws that legislatures have enacted that I don’t like.
What you and folks like you need to reconcile yourselves to is that we Americans don’t live in a dictatorship, and what’s more, we don’t want to. All an individual can do is to be just and well-considered in his own time. Fred has complied a 100% pro-life voting record. Fred has clearly described his own views on abortion, and pre-natal life.
He also believes in the power of state legislatures to act on behalf of the people of their states to enact laws that he does not approve of.
Or that you don’t approve of. That seems to be your big beef. I’d suggest that you might consider that you are only one of 200 million plus. You don’t get to decide things all by yourself.
Neither does a President, even one that might be named Fred Thompson.
ditto.
outlawing abortion by Constitutional amendment is hardly a dictatorship....allowing another 40-50 million to be killed is more akin to that.
i support Fred more or less but leaving it to the states could very problematic.....as well with other very contentiuous issues like gun control or homo-marriage.
but it's a start.
what would Fred's position be as POTUS on Fed funding, Title 10, and SCOTUS nominations as well as being a leader to stop the practice.
sadly I think much like all the other GOP including Ronaldus Maximus he will be mixed and somewhat disappointing on the subject.
The pro infanticide side is hardly as ambivalent and if we wish to defeat them we have to do better.

I agree with you 100%.He also believes in the power of state legislatures to act on behalf of the people of their states to enact laws that he does not approve of.
