Fred Thompson: Abortion Rights Lobbyist!

[Egalia]

So, pro-life country-boy Fred Thompson has a history of working for an abortion rights group. The alleged pro-life conservative Fred Thompson worked as a lobbyist for the National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Assn. in the early 1990s, reports the LA Times.

It was Thompson's job to lobby the H. W. Bush Administration "to withdraw or relax" the abortion "gag rule" -- a rule that "barred abortion counseling at clinics that receive federal money."

When you are a "Gucci-wearing, Lincoln-driving, Perrier-drinking, Grey Poupon-spreading millionaire Washington special-interest lobbyist" who poses as a country lawyer driving a red pick-up truck -- in order to fool the people into voting for you -- well, there are bound to be a few surprises.

Pity the poor conservatives who have pinned all their last desperate hopes on Gucci-wearing Fred. . .
