Thanks for providing links that illustrate precisely what I’ve been saying all along: that Fred has failed to silence rumours about when he’ll announce, and has failed to provide specifics about when he will announce. Like it or not, all this dilly dallying has cost him support, and made him appear indecisive and even lazy, seeming to confirm the early negative opinions that were put out.

From your first link;

“Thompson is likely to announce plans to officially begin a presidential campaign around the July 4 holiday.”

That rumour floated for two or thee weeks in June but, of course, proved incorrect, and frustrated some eager supporters.

Nothing you linked provides anything but speculation about “Law and Order”, about whether or not FEC laws could, or would be applied. Seems unlikely if the MSM morning shows can provide Dems twice the coverage of Republicans and not be challenged, per a FR thread earlier this week.

That’s the whole problem, all potential supporters have had to go on are rumours and more rumours, and Fred’s failure to clarify anything until they spun for days or weeks. And again, TODAY, we have the same thing as I point out in my #
160.

Is he announcing his candidacy today, or is he announcing the date he plans to announce, or not? Same old, same old, whether some want to acknowledge it or not.

Once again your motives are blatantly exposed. You complain about an annnouncement that is not an announcement. You assert that Fred may be making an announcement today.

Obviously neither facts nor logic mean little in your sense of reasoning. What part of FRED RESIGNS from Law and Order is not clear.

I feel like I am trying to provide rational input to someone who is so cognitively dissonated as to be unable to ascertain others reasonable thoughts beyond your own biased apperceptions.

This is America. You are entitled to your opinions. You do not, however, have the ability or power to force them onto others.
