Despite of all the empty rhetoric of all the Presidential candidates who promise all things to all people and to put this country on a new direction, Fred Thompson is about the only one who is stating the facts of the problems that face our nation.
Fred Thompson is not promising all things to all people, but, wants to come up with solutions to problems that can be fixed now with the help of the people of the nation.
He also realizes that there will be sacrifices that need to be made to stop the bleeding of the things that can or will bring this nation down if we don't act now.
Fred Thompson knows that the choices will hard and some of the problems will be a long road to recovery.
If we don't elect a common sense president ( not a charismatic , " Prince Charming President " we need a leader who can lead ) I am afraid this nation will not hold together and survive if Hillary or a Socialist president gets in office.

Agreed, but the seeds of this collapse were sewn years ago when the nation went from a survivalist mentality to an entitlement mentality. Value and work have been replaced by instant gratification. The collapse of the mortgage market alone can be traced to those who would rather use all of their worth to buy toys that they do not need, and an underclass that does not value work, but rather values the escape of drink and drugs. Since they need their entitlement to buy their fixes, the economy loses (to crime) a large measure of capital. Thus the Nation collapses..... The objective of the Socialists, and Queen Charlatan, particularly, is to use this collapse to her advantage and codify an elite (her and her minions) thus making the rest of society subservient to her. Loss of Liberty.

We have moved beyond importing foreigners to mow our yards and build our homes. The political parties are now importing votes, cynically signing up new "Americans" as rapidly as possible before the next election. Let the devil take tomorrow and even the country; help me make it through my election, or re-election. Will this issue be mentioned to Hillary as a CNN debate question? Hahahahahahahahahhahahhahahahh... Nope, CNN will never allow our side to ask questions of their butt kissed teachers pets... Hey, CNN - you suck.

A friend of mine recently told me that Duncan was weak when it came to voting for impeachment.
Is that true?

I haven't read up much on that about Duncan, how ever, Duncan Hunter was my choice until Fred came on the scene.
Either one, I would be happy to elect as President of the USA.

Cal and Pat are the latest example of how certain "conservatives" are just as bad as liberals when it comes to claiming the country is collapsing just because their ideas of the moment aren't being embraced.
It doesn't matter that my ideas about illegal immigration, abortion, etc. aren't embraced right now--the country is still a great country. Cal and Pat, on the other hand, are the mopey types who are forever proclaiming doom and gloom when their ways aren't followed. (I seem to recall Pat claiming all of this when Japan was going to take us over in 1990 or so.)
Some conservatives are falling into the same "USA sucks" mentality just because people we don't like are currently or are about to be in power. The country was here before we showed up; enough with the whining, we have to work to make sure we leave it better than we found it, and enough with the silly pronouncements of impending doom.

We have an increasing dependence on the military to maintain the reserve status of the petrodollar, under attack again for the second time in 30 years.
This dynamic is not well understood by Buchanan or indeed most of the country.

I can live with that. Either a Hunter/Thompson or a Thompson/Hunter ticket would be unbeatable IMHO.

The only party that is cynically signing up illegals as voters is the Democrat Party, which supports giving illegals driver’s licenses and “motor voter” laws.
