..and this after all the buzz today about National Right to Life Committee’s possible endorsement-—very confusing IMO...

[pissant]

What the hell is NRTL thinking?

[WalterSkinner]

..I dunno, but they need a visit from El Cabong

What in the world is wrong with all these so-called conservative organizations endorsing these stupid moderates.

[calcowgirl]

Fred Thompson, the Global Warming President?... more than a few ‘conservatives’ have also succumbed to the hysteria, including Newt Gingrich and Mike Huckabee.

And Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Rudy Giuliani, and John McCain, and Mitt Romney...

Oops... it said "conservatives."

[upsdriver]

Just another example of Thompson’s “conservative” record. Boo!! Hiss!!

[pissant]

ROFL!! And his trusty sidekick...

[pissant]

Yes, I at least put Fred and Newt in that category...

[pissant]

Well, he did spend his days in office as part of the Centrist Coalition with Arlen and Olympia

BTW, there were multiple spellings for El Cabong or Kabong—I chose the Northern Baja California spelling—would you believe Quick Draw McGraw is on Wikipedia LOL!

..fear of Hillary causes responses like this...

Everything is on Wikipedia these days. I miss the cartoons of yesteryear when I see the schmaltz that is currently broadcast.

I was watching youtube captured cartoons of Speedy Gonzalez with my daughter the other night. What a treat, and oh so politically incorrect. LOL

"I'll do all the thinin' around here, and don't you forget it!"

Sorry, couldn't resist.

[pissant]

Now they toss Rudy into the the mix as well.

[pissant]

that sounds about right. It’s been about 40 years since I’ve seen it. Time flies. LOL

Yep, interesting, and a mark against Thompson. However, I can't recall hearing any other Republican presidential candidate openly challenge the validity of whole global warming hoax/agenda during this primary season as I have heard and seen Thompson do so -- and I got his take on it with very little searching or effort. That redeems Thompson to a certain degree from the evidence you post above. What does Duncan Hunter have to say about the global warming hoax? And why haven't I seen it or heard word of it by now?

And again, I want to know: Who's the best alternative to Thompson with regard to this issue? If you say Hunter, I'll believe it when I see evidence to support that there's a chance he's known or popular enough to win the nomination, let alone the presidency. His campaign certainly hasn't communicated his stance on the issue, as Thompson's has.

I don’t suppose that after 5 years the man might have looked at some of the lack of evidence supporting man-made global warming and the evidence that shows it is caused by the sun and maybe has just changed his mind?

Of all the things for a politician to change their mind on, might it not be OKAY for them to change their minds after reviewing more scientific evidence??

Much of the scientific studies that show the link between the sun, cosmic rays and clouds, which clearly refutes that CO2 is causing global warming, is very recent.

No... I guess that doesn’t matter and this is just an attempt to bash Thompson because he hasn’t always taken a position that conservatives take on this issue.

At least he is one of the few candidates currently saying he doesn’t believe man is causing global warming. Oh wait.. I’ll be Hunter has ALWAYS had the correct opinion.

Too bad he doesn’t stand a snowball’s chance on Mercury of getting elected.
