Thompson is opposed to amending the constitution, so you say he isn’t pro-life, but you say Romney is pro-life even though he has promised to “protect and preserve Roe v. Wade” and he has worked to raise money for NARL. (Interesting perspective you have there).
Funny, almost every single right to life organization seems to disagree with you, both on Thommpson and Romney.
Fred opposes any attempt to legally restrict abortions apart from some votes against PBA, both on the federal and on the state level. Particularly for 'young girls', as he told Sean Hannity.

Here is why. From their press release. Since announcing his candidacy in September, Fred Thompson has run second only to pro-abortion candidate Rudy Giuliani for the Republican nomination in the overwhelming majority of national polls. As pro-lifers throughout the nation begin to unite behind his candidacy, he will be well positioned to win the nomination and the presidency.
The answer is because they picked wrong, like most people on FR, and didn't recognize that 1% Fred doesn't take them as seriously as he takes them. Who, oh, who, will they be supporting after next Tuesday when he comes in fourth - or fifth - in SC and gets out of the race.
And when he does and NRLC gets behind Romney, what are you going to do then? Where is your God now?
The entire 2008 presidential campaign could be waged on a single item and that’s the candidate’s pledge to appoint conservative judges. Much of what ails out great country today is the result of judicial activism.
Granted, there’s no guarantee any one person could appoint someone who would turn out to be what was expected, but there’s certainly a better chance a Clinton or Obama nominee would be liberal.
Public education has so dumbed-down the understanding of how our government works that the majority of voters have no idea just how decisive this election will be to the future of America. The next president will make critical appointments at all levels of the federal judiciary, none more critical than those to the SCOTUS.
And the president will have to be someone with the ability to stick to his guns and see a nomination through the confirmation process. The Democrats are going to do everything in their power to prevent a nominee that meets the conservative’s approval can’t be confirmed. In the end it could mean even having to shut down the federal government unless and until a nominee gets an up or down vote on the Senate floor.
Not only will this be one of the nastiest presidential elections any of us have seen in our lifetime, the next term for a Republican president will be hell on earth.
