I will support him.
"You don't just get up one day and overturn the entire history of the country with regard to nature and major social policy, without any action by Congress, without any action by the American people or constitutional amendment, and that's what happened," Thompson explained.
The former Tennessee senator continued, "It shouldn't have happened. It ought to be reversed."
Go Fred go!
Good prolife statement.
Now I have to find out where he stands on all the other issues.
I hope he gets into the debates sooner rather than later.
I want a candidate that understands the second amendment and not only understands the importance of appointing conservative judges to stop judicial tyranny, but also understands how precious life is.
I want a candidate that won't pander to European socialists and is willing to tell the Mexican government how things are, as well as being willing to actually say how useless the UN is.
I also feel it is extremely important to nominate a candidate that can articulate conservatism in a way that everyone can understand, to counter the demagoguery of the left. I like a candidate who can explain why tax cuts are good for our economy and can show man-made global warming for the joke that it is. It would be refreshing to see a candidate explain why we should back Israel and make damn sure Iran never gets a nuke.
Wouldn't it be great to have a candidate that see's CAIR for what it is? Even better to have a candidate that calls out Democrats for being the defeatist losers that they are.
While we're dreaming the impossible dream and looking for this perfect candidate, I'd also like to throw in that I would love to nominate a candidate who can use the new media to his advantage and get around old media liberal bias.
I don't know where we'd ever find such a candidate, but if we can find him, we'll do well in 2008. :)
Fred has so many qualities I've never expected to find in a candidate.
Your boy is doomed...
BTW all that crap you mention in your post. I am sure it is unconstitutional.
I like your tag line. The word obscure has a whole new meaning to me....
This is a good post.
I’m with Fred! He is the man.
Indeed at the inauguration you will still be saying he’s not running...
Awesome post!
Nice picture. 10 years old.
You mean the inauguration of Ron Paul?
It also doesn’t hurt to tell Fred Thompson all of this yourself by e-mailing The Fred Team at I’m with Fred.com!
Fred: It shouldn't have happened. It ought to be reversed.
It's about time one of our major candidates said it.
Looking forward to Fred’s campaign. The MSM is not going to know what to do with him, but Fred will know what to do with the MSM.
Hillary....give it up, you can’t beat Fred, its over for you. Obama.....yah right. Rudy, its been real....the unborn might have voted for you....but damn! Mitt....nice try, in the unlikely event that Fred bombs....stick around.
Duncan, your’e a great guy, looking forward to your taking a top post in the Thompson Administration.
Thanks for the links, I read the article that Thompson wrote for NR about the second amendment.
Freds 2nd amendment view is very different than this other candidate’s take.
