Thats been a long time coming in my most humble opinion. Tonight’s innuendos were far out of place and again IMHO, disgusting. The kind that make you kinda go hmmmmmmm.
Now back to Fred.....
He did great, the interview was just too short. Just today I talked to two older women that were undecided. I asked who they liked most and they both said it was easier to say who they did not like. We talked about Fred. They both had positive opinions but said they hadnt seen enough of him. So when I saw that he was going to be on with Larry I called them both. Lets just say that Fred has two more supporters. Grassroots ..its what Fred is about.

Looks like Fred’s got that truck all tuned up and ready for the races.

For those of you old enough to remember “Your Hit Parade,” I took a few liberties with the lyrics of the song they used to sing to close out the show:

So long for a while.
That’s all of your wrongs for a while.
So long to the Doll’s snarky way,
Being an attack doll just doesn’t pay.
So long!

“There’s no doubt in my mind that Hunter would have zotted Paperdoll himself if he could have.”

I agree. I really admire Duncan Hunter and look for him to be part of the Thompson team. If not VP perhaps Secretry of Defense. GO FRED!

I don’t know his exact position on stem cells and it certainly could be different today than what has been reported in the past.

Here is a little more Wiki trivia I found relevent/facinating:

From 1970 to 1971, he was a Commonwealth Scholar in politics at Balliol College, Oxford. He later moved to the United States, where he attended Harvard Medical School In his freshman year there in 1972, Krauthammer was paralyzed in a serious diving accident. Continuing medical training during his rehabilitation, he earned an M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1975, and then began working as a psychiatrist at Massachusetts General Hospital.

[snip]

Appointed to President George W. Bush’s President’s Council on Bioethics in 2002, Krauthammer has opposed human experimentation, human cloning and euthanasia[36] but supports relaxing the Bush administration’s limits on federal funding of human embryonic stem cell research.[37]

Krauthammer may have a unique perspective on stem cell research, being a paraplegic himself.

You are so right. I hope Fred supporters will sign up on his web site and do what they can to help. Of course donations are great but many can help out in other ways. I am signed up to help already since I am in one of the early primary states. Phone calling, talking to neighbors and friends are all ways to help. GO FRED!

Never underestimate the power of grassroots. Way to go...keep up the good work.
If we all talk to two people a day, and so on and so on, it will bring on victory. For those that cannot afford a monetary donation, and even for those that can, telling two people a day is just as valuable if not more.

Finally, Fred is making an effort to get back in the race.

He's never left it. He's been in since early September, and has been meeting with voters and fundraisers in several primary states ever since.

When you get a minute...reread RUSH’s statement. RUSH can spot a true Conservative, and so-called conservatives will eventually out themselves because they do not stand on concrete principles of Conservatism. When FRED speaks about federalism and states’ rights, it comes from his heart because it is part of him.

FRED THOMPSON is the best candidate of either party. I think he will also be able to pull many independents due to his many detailed policy proposals. I occasionally get discouraged because others do not see what we obviously see...a Leader and a true Conservative.

But on an interview on FOX, Jeri and Freddie with their two children were playing with what looked exactly like a diaphragm. I kid you not.

(eg. hair in a bun, less revealing clothing, light on the makeup).

Hair in a bun? For goodness sakes, can folks just get over the fact that she's a young, attractive woman and leave her ALONE! The 'less revealing clothes' carp is about 4 months too late. She's always fashionably, and modestly dressed when she's being interviewed as a part of Fred's campaign. As for her makeup; women WEAR makeup, especially when they are being interviewed on TV!

Paperdoll has been sent to her room and won't be allowed out for awhile as per Jim Robinson.

Why am I picturing this poster as in reality being a case of Emily Latella, only instead of being hard of hearing, she needs glasses.

Nevermind!

I don't think you're understanding me. I think she looks great and was NOT suggesting that her apparel is in poor taste.

I just think, for the sake of Fred's campaign, that the age difference could be subtly de-emphasized.
