This endorsement will help Fred in Iowa. Otumwa is in South Central Iowa and is the mythical home of Radar O'Reilly and real home of Tom Arnold.

Oh Please Oh Please Oh Please can we get a REAL conservative as the Repub candidate?

I am praying and hoping that Fred gets it.

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

Booyah!

[Shelayne]

Yay!

[Route66]

Smart folks in Otumwa.

Go Fred!

[iowamark]

Interesting. Ottumwa is in the poorest part of Iowa, which, sadly, has been voting left wing as a result.

More folks need to realize that conservatism, not socialism, is the way out of poverty.

[MtnClimber]

I am pulling for Fred as well! No more Republicans trying to act like Democrats.

[Baladas]

Thompson surge > McCain surge. Mitt and Mike have topped out and the latter is falling...

[DenverCossack]

Go Fred !

I am so tired of the Romney - Huckabee my cross is bigger than your cross debate going on right now.

“Oil independence, in the near future, is not to be had,”

Just like eliminating income taxes and the IRS is not to be had. And protection of marriage and human life amendments are not to be had. And deportations of millions of foreign invaders is not to be had. And Thompson's victory is not to be had.

He also seeks “an energy policy that invests in the advanced technologies of tomorrow and places more emphasis on conservation and energy efficiency.”

Fred must be referring to his support of ethanol subsidies.

he thinks Americans are “willing to trade some discomfort to get some honesty.”

Yeah, we'll just use less energy. We'll conserve. That's what conservatives do. Conserve. Americans are willing live less comfortably in order to accomplish the goal of using less energy. We'll just learn to do with less. At least Fred is honest about telling us what we can't do.

Wow! Ottumwa is the hardest of the hard core, tire slashing, scab beating, union thug town in Iowa. Where Democrats’ Democrats live. A place where Jesus wouldn’t get elected if he was Republican.

Simply amazing.

Ottumwa is the hardest of the hard core, tire slashing, scab beating, union thug town in Iowa.

That's what I thought when I saw the headline.
