Thompson's New Ads: The Scripts

Here are the scripts for Fred Thompson's Iowa ads.

Consistent Conservative (60 seconds)

I’m Fred Thompson and I approve this message.
I've been a conservative my whole life.
I grew up in a little hometown just like this.
Started the first Young Republican Club in Lawerenceburg, Tennessee.
In eight years in the United States Senate, I fought for tax cuts, and for conservative judges.
And I’m proud to have had a 100 percent pro-life voting record.
Common sense conservative principles. Free people. Free markets and a government that doesn't tax and regulate us to death, but defends us and protects our borders.
In a country where, if you play by the rules, you've got a fair chance to live the American dream.
My friends, we must remember that our rights come from God and not from government.
And if we stick to our basic conservative principles, we will win next November and the United States of America will be better for it.
