Minn. Anti-Abortion Group Endorses Fred Thompson
WCCO-TV ^ | December 17, 2007

Posted on 12/17/2007 3:09:12 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

A Minnesota anti-abortion organization has endorsed former Senator and TV star Fred Thompson for president.

Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life says the Republican earned the endorsement with his consistent opposition to abortion. The group says he opposed using tax dollars to pay for abortion and certain kinds of stem cell research.

The National Right to Life Committee announced its endorsement for Thompson about a month ago.

The NRTL endorsement is continuing to show its worth as more and more state, regional, and local Life organizations weigh in. They all help to fill the bucket, one drop at a time.

Go Fred!

No one competes with Ron PaulPot. No one! Others simply hope for a little sunshine to seep through the shade of his inevitability.

We've been told that time and time again so it must be true. And if we don't accept it we're neo-cons. Or worse (real conservatives)!

In a Ron PaulPot presidency you won't be allowed that chocolate cake. It's not in the Constitution.

You called it! Don’t you just love it when a plan comes together!

FRED THOMPSON - PRO-LIFE ADVOCATE (true consistent Conservative Federalist and Pro-Life) - NATIONAL SECURITY EXPERT (I’ll protect the American people and values, whatever it takes to stop the Islamicfacists, including water-boarding) - 2ND AMENDMENT ADVOCATE (arming the People and disarming criminals) - SECURE AND SEAL THE BORDERS (don’t give them sanctuary anywhere, don’t hire them, don’t rent to them, don’t give them credit, don’t give them rights they don’t deserve, report all crimes committed by them, it’s called attrition, and deport those who have already committed crimes against America) - LAW AND ORDER (enforcement first and foremost with the laws currently on the books) - SOCIAL SECURITY REFORM (reform a program that can’t sustain itself and will bankrupt the next generation) - DEFEAT ANY DEMOCRAT AND RINO (any fool they put up) – TAX SIMPLIFICATION (variety of choice for the tax payer) - WON’T PUT UP WITH CRAP FROM THE MSM (including stupid questions by moderators and pundits) - “WE THE PEOPLE” CANDIDATE (We the People asked him to run and he stepped up) - PING!

Fred is the John Wayne of politicians, all the others are wimps in comparison. Absolutely love the guy. I was priviledged to see him up close and personal at a luncheon in Jackson, Ms. last Friday. He talked for an hour to our small group and gave us the opportunity to ask questions. He’s the real thing for conservatives, no one else is close.
I wish there was something I could do to make a difference from here, if you have thoughts let me know.
GO FRED , WE LOVE YOU AND ARE BEHIND YOU.
OH, PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR HEART IS AND SEND WHATEVER YOU CAN TO FRED, HE NEEDS IT NOW. I DONATED MANY TIMES. HE’S NOT A RICH GUY LIKE ROMNEY.

I had a chance to go to that lunch and missed it due to work obligations. Was it good?

Are you in Jackson?
