As I’ve said before, the Democrats and their allies in the media fear Fred Thompson’s candidacy more than that of any other Republican.
I’ve got a new theory. I now think the socialist left in this country is a variety of Islam. This is an example of leftist takiyya, the precept that it’s OK, and in fact required, to tell any lie you can to further the goals of the left. They also practice a variety of dhimmitude, where non-leftists are tolerated so long as they continue to pay taxes to support leftist social programs and refrain from making nuisances of themselves by bring up inconvenient facts.
However, it was VERY shameful and discouraging to see how many Freepers were willing to take the word of msm scum & pro-abort ghouls over a good man like Fred with a proven pro-life record.
I can only hope that it was just a bunch of rat trolls -- and not true Freepers -- that were running with the story.
