In the full interview Thompson flatly states that he does not support the Republican 2004 platform on abortion nor does he support the Human Life Amendment mentioned in the platform. Huckabee entered politics for this very issue. He was criticizing the Supreme Court not embracing Federalism over life as Thompson does.
"Roe v. Wade is based on a real stretch of Constitutional application--that somehow there is a greater privacy issue in the abortion concern--than there is a human life issue--and that the federal government should be making that decision as opposed to states making that decision. So, I've never felt that it was a legitimate manner in which to address this and, first of all, it should be left to the states." Mike Huckabee interview with Right Wing News
Duncan Hunter has proposed a federal law to protect innocent life, this year as he has many times before.
Thompson is really saying has no intention of ending abortion. "Just let the states decide whether or not to let women kill their offspring." Maybe Thompson believes we should let the states allow slavery, too.
Wake up Fred! The Constitution is being amended all the time by judges ILLEGALLY. We're asking that it be done legally and you oppose that. If you think, as you said, that life begins at conception then how can you stand by and do nothing while that life is taken? Federalism is great but it's not more important than life. Huckabee has my vote.

"Nobody has proposed a federal law on this."
Does Fred Thompson ever do his homework?
