I don’t know why so many people are just waiting in the wings for former Senator/Actor Fred Thompson to announce his candidacy for President. He may look presidential, but for crying out loud, he is an actor, he is trained to ‘look the part’.
I have some information concerning Fred Thompson that you ought to be aware of.
First off, Fred Thompson has hired Spencer Abraham as his campaign manager.
For many of you who don’t remember, Spencer Abraham was a senator from Michigan who was defeated because of a bill he wrote, that passed, which raised the number of H1B visas from 115,000 to 195,000. This ad was used in the campaign to get rid of Mr. Abraham.
Now why would Fred Thompson hire a man of this character to run his campaign if he truly was a conservative and wanted to stand up for the people of this country, not the illegal aliens and the corporate interests that need them
Maybe some of Fred Thompsons voting history from when he held office might explain this.
Thompson’s voting record on H-1B speaks for itself. Americans for Better Immigration gave him a grade of F. Here are just a few reasons Thompson
earned a failing grade:
1998: Voted for S.1723, nearly doubling hi-tech visas
1998: Voted against protecting American workers by putting safeguards into the H-1B law.
1998: S.1723, Voted to allow American workers to be fired and replaced with a foreign worker.
1996: Voted in committee for the Abraham amendment to S.1664. The Abraham amendment to S.1664 stripped all legal reforms from the bill. This vote
shows how closely tied Thompson and Abraham are.
2000: Voted for S.2045, a foreign worker bill with no worker protections. Sen. Thompson voted for the Abraham foreign worker bill to nearly triple
the number of foreign high-tech workers. This is another crucial piece of evidence to their close ties.
The media is playing up to Thompson like he is the outsider who will save the GOP. The people are drooling all over him like he is some sort of a modern day Ronald Reagan.
For cryin out loud people, wake up and do some research on your own and find out the facts about the candidates before you buy into the propaganda being spewed out at you on your televisions! Fred Thompson is just the same mess on a different day, that we have had offered to us for years, a phony conservative, beholden to corporate interests who could give a rats hind end about the welfare of the American people.
Of course they do, and they are certainly entitled to their opinion.
...so who were the OTHER 1200 people at the Paul rallies in Greenville/Spartanburg last week? ALL from 'out of state'; I'm sure...
By grouping as you have done, you are demonstrating your bias against learning fact.
bildbergers; real
trilateralls; real
illuminati; real but past history
skull and bones; real
NWO; real
rockfellers; real
and space aliens; not real
mnehrling; close-minded
Whoo-Hoo!
Keep 'er going, Rudy! All the way to the bottom! Yaa-hoo!
Who would you suggest as an alternative to Fred?
Close minded- heck no.. I challenge any assumption- I don’t believe everything I read just because someone says it is fact. I am a reformed John Bircher who grew up and realized it was all BS after looking deeper into their claims. Close minded is believing the story without investigating first.
Well, let's hope it never happens.
Does Homeland Security know that supporters of paleoPaulie and of Al Qaeda are converging on an innocent South Carolina town, one sawbuck, one vote, bent on blaming America first, last and always. As Spiro Agnew once accurately said of an earlier antiAmerican Americong: “nattering nabobs of negativism seeking to spread a spirit of masochism throughout the land.”
It’s a REAL poll???? When all that was needed was an adequate supply of antiwar AntiAmerican al Qaeda apologist types, one school bus from Berserkely or its equivalent and 40 sawbucks to finish second????? Puhleeeze!!!!
Oh noooooooo!!!! Not the Council on Foreign Relations!!!! The Birchers won’t like thatvery much at all, will they???? Maybe they can support paleoPaulie and his Al Qaeda apologist movement instead. Oh, wait.....
So, as a paleoPaulie satrap, you like Demonrats (French vanilla) better than Republicans (vanilla). Is that because of the French connection or just that the Demonrats are more slavering cut and run artists?
Those four are a very good start.
When Clinton was President conspiracies were standard fare here, remember? Whitewater...Mena...Vince Foster...Ron Brown Chinese dirty money ect. ect. ect.
Now any conservative who suggests the possibility of a government conspiracy is looney...?
I never saw you debunk CFR conspiracy threads which have posted at this forum many times over the years...Perhaps I missed your ridicule of posters to the Whitewater threads and the Vince Foster Ron Brown threads.
You are a simple minded man by any account.
You can’t even remember the history of the forum that you are using to spew your garbage.
OK
Perhaps your ignorance is due to your being a relatively newcomer here.
