[GeorgiaDawg32]

[TheMom]

Fred is way cool.

[cubreporter]

I finally was able to view the video. You were right. It WAS pure genius!!! He is sooooooo relaxed and calming. He put it to the Michael Bore BIG TIME!

[GatorGirl]

I’ve officially become a Fred Head! Great job!

FRED THOMPSON FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!

I suspect before any debate the Hillary camp will demand some type of staging which visually balances the two candidates. 6 foot 6 inch Fred v 5 foot 6 inch Hillary? She’d look like the troll she is well before she opens her mouth and proves it to the world.

Thats probable.

Its pretty common actually, but its not done by elevation, but by putting in rules regarding camera placement. Basically, the camera angles are placed differently so the viewer doesn't notice the height differance unless the 2 interact.

Its also done to prevent distraction or ackwardness (some candidates are tall and some short, Kunich and Kerry would have looked bizarre side by side).

To be honest, if for some reason, FRed doesn't run, many of us would be very depressed for a while. That said, I think Hunter would benefit from the FRedheads.

I certainly wasn't thinking of Hunter as a "backup", until I just learned that he is a co-sponsor of H.R. 25, the FairTax. That makes him much more palatable to me than he was before. I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised, since that is the only tax reform I've heard that accomplishes his goal of eliminating taxes on US manufacturing.

I'll be interested to see if he or any other candidates mention it, considering the big FairTax rally across the street. So far, among the candidates, only Tancredo and Huckabee have publicly endorsed it.

Indeed:)

GREAT thread by they way! You beat me literally by seconds! I’m just beaming. I bet Brit (or whoever is subbing for him) has it on The Political Grapevine...

[PierreLegrand]

hehe...Exactly the way that leftist slime like Moore should be dealt with. Perfect.

[yield 2 the right]

Has anyone gotten banned on this Pro-Fred thread by none other than Jim Robinson himself? Just asking....

[GeorgiaDawg32]

LOL, yea, I saw that..I was going to type more in the headline but wanted to get it up (so to speak) in a hurry..:)

I’m at a campground in Virginia and unfortunately don’t have cable here so I’ll miss all the reactions..:(

[roaddog727]

Mental institution Michael......

Something you ought to think about......

Woo Hoo!

GO FRED!

[GeorgiaDawg32]

in the meantime, the folks at the DU are insisting Fred is AFRAID to debate fatso, as I knew they would..

My question to the DUmmies is, why are the DEMS AFRAID to debate on the FOX network?? scared of some tough questions??

Oh, yeah.

It seems it all comes down to Ohio.

The good thing about Fred is that he has all of the upside for a swing state like Ohio, but no connection with recent bad things there, and really, no connection to GWB.

He makes me thing that a true red stater can win in 2008.

[SE Mom]

Not to worry- we’ll post reactions here on FR:)

And as to DU- pppfffftttt. The time for serious debates involving Fred will come..but it won’t be with Michael Moore:)

[RDTF]

I just now saw this. BWAAHAHAHA!!!!!! OMG!

[Liberty Valance]

Fred, by golly, you have GOT to run now! That was priceless!

[dearolddad]

Mental institution Michael. Might be something you ought to think about you fat F*ck!!

There, I fixed it.

[rbosque]

Better Fred than red!
