Fred's most prized possession:
Fred Thompson News ^ | Brad G

Posted on 12/14/2007 1:15:48 PM PST by jaybeegee

I love when Fred makes a mockery out of the media (see here and here). And today the AP asked the candidates their most prized keepsakes:

REPUBLICANS:

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani: "My grandfather's pocket watch."

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee: "Probably my Tobias bass guitar or maybe, I've got a handmade musket rifle that was made by a guy in Eureka Springs, Ark. I've hunted turkey with it. It's really an amazing firearm. Probably one of those two as far as just real heirlooms."

Arizona Sen. John McCain: "I have a baseball signed by Ted Williams, my childhood hero, a Marine pilot as well."

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney: 1962 Rambler American, which his sons bought for him. "The last year that my dad was president of American Motors and made Ramblers was 1962, so it's a connection with my dad and that era."

Former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson: "Trophy wife."

New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton: No answer

She didn't want to mention that it is her signed copy of the Communist Manifesto.

I’d be surprised if he didn’t get some grief over that comment.

Nonetheless, I appreciate his sense of humor.

Fred said that! I hope Jeri doesn’t make him sleep on the couch for that!

Actually I wouldn’t be surprised if she told him to say it! He’s taking the MSM’s comments and shoving them right back at their smug, ugly faces.

It's for the best. Fred may be the man who finally frees America from the grip of Political Correctness. If so, he will go down in history alongside Lincoln.
