Republican presidential candidate Fred Thompson has won the endorsement of the National Right to Life Committee, the largest U.S. antiabortion group, three sources tell FOX News.

The announcement is scheduled to be made Tuesday in Washington D.C.

The announcement first was reported by The Politico. Click here to read the blog posting on The Politico.

Thomspon, speaking Monday to reporters in Indianola, Iowa, initially was cool to talking about the endorsement before it was announced, but shortly found a way to talk about the benefits.

"I would not ever make any statement about anybody endorsing me until they've endorsed me...I can't respond to the word on the street," Thompson said.

But answering a follow-up question what a pro-life group's endorsement would mean, Thompson said: "I've had a 100 percent pro-life voting record in the United States Senate ... and I think they know that. And that's the way I'd govern if I was President. ... So it (the endorsement) would be a perefctly natural thing and very helpful to me I would think."

3. Ooh, The Values voters

These people are so fucking stupid, they keep thinking they will get a candidate to change abortion laws in this country. LOL
No one is going to change the laws because it keeps these stupid monkeys voting in their column.

5. Shhh don't tell them, we don't want them to actually have

to think for themselves. After all they already cause enough damage to the country as it is with them not thinking and just voting like zombies so imagine how worse it might be if they could form a coherent thought in regards to what they do.

6. Supporting A Man's Right to Make Babies

'til he's a hunnert and ten. Why doesn't he just stay home with the two he's brought into the world -- they're just little 'uns -- instead of wasting his time slowly jogging around the country (nearly said 'running' until I remembered this is Fred).
