Saying “Rudy will be toughest in the WOT” and following that with “Fred plays a prosecutor on tv” is an obvious slur.
I really enjoyed Fred Thompson subbing for Paul Harvey recently.
“Fred plays a prosecutor on tv” is an obvious slur.”
God, Madam, get OVER yourself and stop looking for issues where there aren’t any. Except that, Fred DOES play a prosecutor on TV, and Rudy would be tough on terror.
But it gave us a chance to educate another poster, and other readers, that Fred Thompson was a REAL prosecuter for many years.
He was so good at it that they made a movie about one of his cases. And when they could not find an actor that could play a lawyer well enough, they hired Fred, and that launched his acting career (in the movie “Marie”).
He was a key lawyer in Nixon’s impeachment hearings. He had a private legal practice, and did serve as a lobbyist before that was such a derogatory term.
Acting was his 3rd career, being in the Senate was his fourth.
