This Thompson would be a major player, if he didn’t take the HHS job. Tommy is tainted by Bush’s baggage.
The other Thompson is saying the right things, definitely on the border security issue.
I’ve admired Tommy Thompson throughout his career.
What are the odds of a ‘Thompson Twins’ ticket?
What is Tommy’s conservative rating?
I have nothing against Tommy Thompson, but I find it interesting how all the candidates eventually come out propounding the issues which have been publicly stated many times by Duncan Hunter from the beginning of the race.
Welcome to the Official Tommy Thompson ping list! -- The ONLY candidate for President elected statewide in a swing state as a proven conservative!
Please Freepmail me if you want ON or OFF this list. Remember, despite what some freepers may think, Tommy Thompson is the ONLY Thompson out there actually RUNNING for President.
Tommy Thompson: The Reliable Conservative
TOMMY THOMPSON : ANY legislation that provides amnesty to the estimated 12 million illegal aliens currently living in the United States is the WRONG path for our country... The Senate should start by recognizing that there will be NO amnesty or benefit to ANYONE who broke our laws to enter this country. People who are found to be in the country illegally should be returned to their home countries.

FRED THOMPSON: I think that you have to realize that you're either going to drive 12 million people underground permanently, which is not a good solution. You're going to get them all together and get them out of the country, which is not going to happen. Or you're going to have to, in some way, work out a deal where they can have some aspirations of citizenship
