You can tell how much the media and the Left fear Fred Thompson -- they want to do their best to undermine him with the GOP base. You therefore get this headline.
Records Show Ex-Senator’s Work for Family Planning Unit
True enough -- but what they show is that Fred Thompson really didn't perform any significant work for the pro-abortion group as a lobbyist. After all, the total amount billed over the course of 2 1/2 years was under 20 hours. Of that, just 3 1/3 hours are reported as actual lobbying work -- the rest of the time would be meetings and consultations at the request of the colleague who was working for the pro-abortion group. Indeed, the lack of specificity in the records as to who was spoken to and what was discussed leads me to wonder if the hours were not mis-categorized -- after all, not a single individual from the Bush I administration has ever stepped forward to say that Fred Thompson spoke to them about the gag-rule.
Indeed, the billing records seem to show that Fred Thompson was not hired to lobby for the pro-abortion group, contrary to the claims of the group's leader.

Comments on Headline True, But Conveys False Impression
Hi,
I just wanted to say thank you for your comments over at houston9/11truth re: the agitator at the airport yesterday when Fred was answering questions.
I wasn't there, but from the youtube video, it was clear she was there to make trouble and bring attention to herself.
She also tried to interrupt at least twice while Fred was answering other questions after he politely answered her own question.
I'm adding your site to my saved conservative blog sites.
