Fred Thompson on Harry Reid’s attacks on Rush Limbaugh

Posted on October 3rd, 2007
By Fred in Announcements

Congressional Democrats are trying to divert attention from insulting our military leader in Iraq and pandering to the loony left by attacking Rush Limbaugh. He is one of the strongest supporters of our troops, yet Democrats claim he is not being strong enough. I wonder who General Petraeus and his troops think is most supportive?

Fred is a politician and will take advantage of any situation.

So what you are saying is that the other candidates were too stupid to take advantage of this opportunity.

Stupidity is not a good trait for a Presidential candidate.

"I listen to Rush pretty much every day and every time the troops come up he always mentions in what high respect he holds them."

The media supporting this lie against Rush and the Dems in the Senate and Congress can kiss my butt!

Rush is one of the biggest financial supporters of the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation. www.mc-lef.org They are a 5 star charity organization. No Administrative costs....all Volunteer (I'm one) They give money/bonds to children who have lost a parent in the line of duty in Military and in Law Enforcement (FBI,SS,CIA etc...)

Is this what Mitt really said,if so it’s absolutely unacceptable in this mans book.

What a cowardly politically correct statement from a man who claims to be a real leader.

This could be an extremely pivital moment in the ‘08 race, although I’m sure not in the way the ‘Rats intended when they tried to smear the Big Dog with their lies.

If Rush throws his weight behind FRed (which he should do anyone, due to the completely insipid and uninspiring candidated FDT is competing against) because of his support today, the RINO contingent will be put back in its place, hopefully once and for all. Rudy, McCain, Willard and the rest of the hacks will be but a distant memory come this spring

We might have a shot at the ‘Beast yet.

About time someone addresses the left by name the way Fred does.

Ann Coulter, without the venomous sting?

Don't get me wrong, I love Ann's spunk, but she would never be elected President.

Fred? He just might be. I hope.

Wish I could vote.

“So what you are saying is that the other candidates were too stupid to take advantage of this opportunity.”

No. What I am saying is, had it been a sincere gesture, Fred, or anybody else, would have jumped in from the start and not waited to see in what direction the wind was blowing.

Lesley Graham did the same thing because in his case he knows he is in big political trouble.

Your comments are always appreciated.

Thank you.

Rush mentioned this on his show and said it was “A rare act of courage” for Fred to speak up for him.

We should also recall that is was FRED who stepped up to defend Scooter Libby when the rest of the jellyfish establishment were throwing Scooter under the bus.

"You just don’t understand. As a successful business man and a competent executive office holder, Mitt is highly trained at responding to political situations with multiple responses and positions to cover the current interest of his constituents."

Are you saying he is an over processed fake? Cause if you are, there is an easier way to describe that sort of person......wooden nickle.

I just loves me some efficiency.
