Fred Thompson a good TV President..

You sound like the meatheads who said the same thing about Reagan: Hollywood president - B actor - empty suit---ad nauseum

Yes, you are right....Newt would be a good president...possibly. But his baggage is that the dems and the left hate him for the contract and for what he did to the Bubbas. They will crucify him. He's better at trying to keep the party straight on task.

according to his IMDB trivia page and this bio, he's held the following positions:

-shoe salesman
- truck driver
- factory worker
- assistant U.S. attorney 1969-1972;
- minority counsel, Senate Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities (“Watergate Committee”) 1973-1974;
- special counsel to Tennessee Governor Lamar Alexander 1980;
- special counsel, Senate Committee on Foreign Relations 1980-1981;
- special counsel, Senate Intelligence Committee 1982;
member, Tennessee Appellate Court Nominating Commission 1985-1987;
actor; elected as a Republican to the United States Senate in the November 8, 1994, special election to fill the unexpired portion of the term ending January 3, 1997, left vacant by the resignation of Albert Gore, Jr.;
- took the oath of office on December 2, 1994;
- reelected in 1996 for the term ending January 3, 2003; not a candidate for reelection in 2002;
- chair, Committee on Governmental Affairs (One Hundred Fifth and One Hundred Sixth Congresses;
- One Hundred Seventh Congress [January 20, 2001-June 6, 2001]);

I can't disagree with most of that.. however Newt is the only one that can assemble the fractured republican party... The ONLY one.. Bush has fractured it pretty badly.. not only about immigration either.. but about many other things..

Sandy Burgular has most of "us" scratching our heads.. Like what has Hitlery got on Bush jr.. or even Bush Sr?.. Must be something.. He isn't that stupid to just let that go..
