Jim Robinson, founder of Free Republic has endorsed Fred. Here’s part of his endorsement:

With Fred, we know we’re getting a solid, no-nonsense, commonsense pro life and liberty conservative who will defend the nation, secure the borders, defend the constitution, appoint originalist judges, defend the Bush tax cuts, work to simplify and flatten the tax code, keep social security solvent while providing alternative private accounts, reduce government and spending, and work to return states issues to the states. Imagine that.

In fact, he comes closest to being the conservative leader I’ve been praying for all these years. I don’t know about you, but I think it would be great to be able to enthusiastically support and work for a true conservative candidate whose principles and convictions match so many of my own.

Of the realistic choices - Fred seems to be the best.

Sure wish Duncan Hunter would gain steam.

Can’t say this wasn’t telegraphed a little. Fred is a reasonable choice.

He’s the most reliable conservative in the field and comes without the social liberalism, abortionism, nanny statism, open borders, gun grabbing, big government, big spending, big tax leanings and unstable knife in the back RINO baggage of Giuliani, Romney, Huckabee and McCain.

He doesn’t cater to the global warming, socialized health care, or open borders/amnesty crowds. Just say no to all this liberal garbage.


Sounds about right.

Please place this where you think best...I think a lot of Freepers will find this interesting throughout the day.

Thanks.

Sorry, Fred’s melting faster than an ice cube in the summer heat. Former Bush adviser Bartlett was correct several months ago in predicting that Thompson would fade out more quickly than anyone had foreseen.

OH, is that the reason there haven’t been any “Thompson Truth Files”?
