The Fred Thompson Meltdown Continues
JoshuaPundit ^ | 7/30/07 | Freedom Fighter

Posted on 07/30/2007 12:59:48 PM PDT by pissant

As more and more of his potential supporters learn about Fred Thompson's choice of open borders advocate and pro-Islamist ex-senator and lobbyist Spencer Abraham as his campaign manager, Thompson's luster as th egreat GOP savior has begun to dim precipitously.

Latest to weigh in are Dymphna at Gates of Vienna, Elaine at Aaron's Rod ( who removed all the Blogs For Fred links to her site) and Deb at Right Truth.

And Michelle Malkin also did a short bit with Laura Ingraham on her national show.

As I said in my piece, no one who's serious about winning the War Against Jihad would want a tool like Abraham anywhere near him.Either Thompson was ignorant about Abraham's background, which means he lacks the judgment to be president, or he knew about it and appointed Abraham anyway...which means that no one who's serious about fighting this war or controlling the borders should remotely consider supporting him.

I think we're done with stealth candidates who talk the talk but don't walk the walk.

It was a statement of opinion. Though you choose to see it as an irritant, my opinion is relevant, on-topic and agrees with the ‘article’ that started the thread. I have no plans to support Fred Thompson for many many reasons, yes, including this one, and I am quite confident that it won’t be necessary to commit to him at any time, ever. I’m not afraid of losing to Hillary or Guiliani, therefore, I need not make a fear-based choice and I will continue to support the candidate that is best for the job and for our country, Duncan Hunter.

This Duncanista has been asked and asked innumerable times by multiple FReepers over several weeks to support his candidate and to quite sliming FDT.

Thanks for your honesty. Yet I find it ironic that you're not afraid of losing to Hillary or Guiliani, yet are afraid of a think tank like CFR. That sounds pretty confused to me.

Snippiness is good for a hedge, but it has a negative effect on people.

lmao....aren’t you one to talk! At least my so called “snippiness” was directed at Spencer Abrahams and NOT a freeper.

Hey, Paperdoll! If Fred is guilty by associastion because of his frienship with John McCain, is Hunter guilty by association because of his friendship with convicted influence peddler Randy “Buzz” Cunningham?

I have been noticing all the attacks on Fred are mostly from the main stream media and politicos that are in support of Hillary. Fred scares them and they are trying to take him out now.

They wail about the fact he has raised very little money, however he is in first place and is not officially running. When he announces the rules of campaign financing change (Thank John “anti first amendment” McCain) for that.

Fred reminds me of a few “good ol boys” that I played poker with. They were dumber than dirt but left the table with my money. Perhaps I was the dumb one.

Friend ship! he cosponsored the graft and corruption bills with Cunningham. Mr Hunter is a good man but he has a lot of work to reverse all the pork barrel spending he pushed through for years. He ought to start by telling everyone how he's going to get some of the money he's thrown away back.

Yep, she was on the Steve Gill show today. She was wailing on and on about Fred. Gill finally asked her who she was supporting. She said Rudy cause she thought he could beat Hillary.

Hunter’s PAC money may be the very reason he’s running for POTUS ~ to be able to fund his son’s congressional seat.

Now we are getting into the meat of the matter.
