Fred Thompson: Survey? What Survey?
Posted by Michael Link on May 9, 2007 at 03:11 PM
Yesterday I wrote about a questionnaire that surfaced showing that Fred Thompson wanted to cut funding for AIDS research. The survey, conducted in 1994, is receiving quite a bit of attention for its claim that he supported a woman's right to abortion in the first three months.
But now Fred Thompson is claiming he never even saw the survey:
The abortion credentials of potential Republican White House contender Fred Thompson came into question Tuesday when a survey filled out by his 1994 Senate campaign surfaced on the Internet. It said Thompson supported a woman's right to abortion in the first three months of pregnancy."That questionnaire was filled out by a campaign staffer without Fred's knowledge," said Mark Corallo, a spokesman for the former Tennessee senator. "As you can see, he has voted in every instance along pro-life lines."
It's always a staffer, isn't it?
