He voted for McCain/Feingold. And he let Bill Clinton off the hook during impeachment process.

A Hunter supporter lying about Fred? I am SHOCKED!!

Hunter supporters are some of the nastiest, holier-than-thou egotistical creeps I have ever seen.

If I can’t vote for Fred for some reason, I am writing in Tancredo. Most Tanc people are reasonable and polite.

I don’t think Fred is lazy; I think he’s tired. Please note: All the ex girlfriends and the current wife who is 30 or 34 years younger.

Why, that's just AWFUL!! That CRADLE ROBBER!! Why, 40-year-olds are practically TEENAGERS these days! And a single man DATING?!?! What a PERVERT!!

By the way, it's actually 24 years.

It’s quite obvious now that the Left folks and the anti-Thompson right haven’t heard of the concept of working “smarter not harder”. You’d think the right-wing folks who support someone with a military background would understand the concept of a force multiplier. Thompson, who was in on the early waves of transitioning government to the Internet Age, clearly understands the concept of virtual presence, and is making extremely profitable use of that. There’s plenty of time yet for retail-level politics, but right now the bang for the (no) buck is through the Internet and television and radio appearances. Catching the largest possible audience with the least expenditure of money, time and effort. For those who need one word... it’s called EFFICIENCY.

To be accurate, the age difference is 24 years. Your six to ten year exaggeration isn't surprising of course, but since you troll the Fred threads it's best to set the record straight.

Why do you perpetuate this lie? Fred voted to convict on one of the articles of impeachment - and only one was needed to remove Slick from office.

And your guy was a long-term supporter of CFR as well. So you're a two-faced lying weasel.

He’s not a Hunter supporter. He’s a serial Mitt-o-crite.

I don’t know if you are really a Romneybot or a Dem troll but your vulgar obscene comments are no help at all to Mitt Romney. Supporters like you only serve to discredit him.

What other Republican governors have sought universal health care for their constituents?

>>>What other Republican governors have sought universal health care for their constituents?<<<

And achieved it through a free market approach.

Or I suppose you think it’s just for healthcare professionals to be legally forced to render their services for free to those who refuse to pay for them under federal law? And for that cost to be shifted upon the rest of us who do actually choose to pay for our services?

What we have right now is cost redistribution. What Romney enacted demands that there aren’t any more free meal tickets and that all must have health insurance. No more freeloading off of hospitals and those who actually pay for the services they receive.

Forcing others to do work for no compensation is not exactly a conservative ideal.
