It seems to me that God-o-Meter’s quote from Paul Weyrich comes pretty close to bearing false witness. He needs to make his proof for such an allegation public or else apologize for slandering both NRLC and Thompson.
Thompson’s endorsement makes perfect sense when you look at his voting record and see that he has always voted in favor of life and he also supports the ban on funding embryonic stem cells.
And as far as the federal amendment goes, let me ask you this: what candidate has laid out a strategy to get such an amendment? Who is going out on a limb to say that they’ll make it happen? What candidate would actually tell NRLC that he is the candidate for them because he knows he can convince enough pro-choice Senators to support it?
BTW, poor Thompson lost a point on the God-o-Meter for this slander, it really doesn’t seem fair since it hasn’t been proven that he gave NRLC money.
