Good to see what the left thinks of Fred.

But then, a few days later, I learned what the conflict was: Thompson was going to London to kiss the ring of Margaret Thatcher and give a speech to Policy Exchange.

A bit snide, what?

Jason remains a bit clueless. The other guy’s more on track.

Funny that they don’t realize that instead of speaking at the NRLC in front of a few, he got to make a video that was viewed by millions AND got a standing ovation from the NRLC.

He can win. But only if he actually enters the race.

He is the most talked about candidate now, and he has yet to spend a single dime. He has gotten $20-30 million in free advertising, he is being drafted by a huge grass roots movement, and he doesn’t need to associate with the pigmy’s now running for president to gain credibility, he has plenty of gravitas all on his own.

>but so far, they mostly seem excited about the fact that he slapped around Michael Moore

Is that so? Curious. - I don't know of anyone up to this point who mentioned that in conjunction with his presidential aspirations. - or anyone at all, for that matter.

Perhaps the writer has a sore spot from whatever he is writing about, but I doubt that it has a any bearing on our support for Fred.

Oh, I get it now. Fred is lazy because he doesn’t run around spewing mindless sound bites, incessantly redefining his ‘beliefs’ and explaining why conservatives should vote for liberals like Rudy and Mitt... and shrieking “We gotta do something” at every overblown ‘crisis’ invented by the blood-drenched gutter press.

I’m more than happy to have a ‘lazy’ candidate like that. I prefer that to the frenetic Rino and Demon candidates who, for all practical purposes, act like they are snorting crank 15 times a day.

Aah, the “Fred is Lazy” route.

Fred is the kind of guy that is so likeable, laid back, and softspoken, you don’t realize he just kicked your a$$.

The office is about charecter too.

In the months ahead you’ll see footage of Fred Thompson, seeking the truth, as a lawyer a the Watergate hearings (He asked the question to Butterfield that doomed Nixon).

Remember that according to Jerome Ziefman, who was lead Dem counsel, Hillary didn’t believe Nixon was entitled to an Impeachment lawyer.

That’s the difference between the two in a nutshell.

The truth is, Fred is lazy.

That's not a political statement. It's a fact.

If he runs.

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.
