That’s a good point. A reminder to all that this is not out of character for Fred Thompson at all. He came out vigorously in defense of Scooter Libby as well.
Bump to your excellent post [both of you]. Fred also came out in support of General Petraeus months ago, long before he was to report to Congress, and repeated it all the time the Democrats were wanting to shut down Petraeus’ efforts in Iraq.
Fred’s character is there for all to see.
