The author is so clueless about fighting the War on Terror, it’s actually painful.

He seems to think that it’s ONLY about giving good-sounding speeches.

Pathetic.

“It is certain that Fred Thompson will be elected president in 2008. It is just as certain that sometime in the next few years America will be the subject of another horrific terrorist attack. Which raises the question of how President-Elect Thompson will serve the nation when that happens. President Bush showed courage after September 11. He gave some of the best speeches of his presidency. But despite my respect for this very good man, President Bush, at his best does not approach Fred Thompson at his worst as a communicator. “

Actually this is the WORST INDICTMENT of Fred Thompson, acknowledging that ALL HE CAN DO IS MAKE SPEECHES — if someone writes it out for him.

The author is stupid, but your an Idiot... A president’s ability to articulate and communicate the situation to country is his major contribution during times of war...

Wrong. FDT is a highly articulate attorney.

In wartime, a leader must communicate in a strong, firm and resolute manner. From what I've seen of FDT in real life--not in his acting roles--he can do that better than the rest of the R field.

I have no idea how you've come to this conclusion. Thompson is a lawyer. Lawyers are trained to talk spontaneously, off the cuff, on their feet.

And the article does not conclude or acknowledge that making speeches is all Thompson can do. It just points up an ability to communicate. Do you actually believe that's a bad thing?

That's what they said about this man also.

As Yogi Berra would say: "This is deja vu all over again."
