Breaking news on FOX: Fred Thompson quits

“Sometimes I wonder if these are actually teenagers...”

On the Chatrooms, all 12 year old girls are actually 33 year old cops.

On the Forums, all 45 year old rocket scientists are actually 12 year old boys.

I would be ok with a Romney/Thompson ticket. There isn’t another candidate that I can see myself voting for. I told my husband that if it ended up being Huckabee or McCain, it would be the first time ever for not voting for a president.
No third party will do and I’ll just about never vote D, unless they were a Conservative Dem, which I just about don’t think is possible these days.

[razzle]

There is no hope for you dude!

Republicans seem to do better when they’re the minority party. If Fred Thompson had a message that America was ready for, he would have gotten more votes—plain and simple. The Republican party had better get it’s house in order or they’re going to be minority for a while.

G8 Diplomat, I know this is a waste of thread space, but seriously, stop sounding like a Sore/Loserman. Nobody is “STUCK” in college. There are no bars on your doors. If you threaten to “leave the country”, just do it.

For 8 years now, I’ve heard liberals (and sadly a few conservatives) complain, complain, complain. Conservatives are NOT lazy. Conservatives MEAN what they say. If you want to move, do it and then tell us how wonderful your life is once you actually move.

In the meantime, back the candidate of your choice. We’re only NOW getting to the primaries where liberals can’t pollute our republican primaries. The convention isn’t today or tomorrow. Get out there and work for that candidate you want to see elected as our nominee.

[dmartin]

Crap. This sucks. There is not one GOP contender that I want to vote for.

It feels like 1996 all over again. You have a choice of staying home or holding your nose and voting for anyone but Clinton.

[G8 Diplomat]

Get out there and work for that candidate you want to see elected as our nominee.

Both of my candidates DROPPED OUT OF THE RACE. I could care less who the nominee is now.

And when I said I was "stuck" in college, what I meant was college kids do not have the money that such a trip would cost. If I had any money, I sure as hell would leave the country if Hillary got elected. Money requires getting a job, which requires a college education. Hence, IF I had an income, I'd be outta here if the Hildebeast won.

If only I had a scanner I would send the e-mail photo I received from a friend of a Honda with a Kentucky license plate and a bumper sticker which reads “Monica Lewinsky’s x-boyfriend’s wife — FOR PRESIDENT!

I tried cutting and pasting it here—but it didn’t work! :)

[GoldwaterChick]

Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!

Truer words were never spoken! Altho to tell the truth, I know many 12 year olds who make more sense then a few of the posters here.

Too bad we don’t have instant video on each post! It brings to mind how shocked we were in the days of radio when we finally got to see the faces behind the voices we heard.

I really am a little old grandmother who is off her rocker. Right now I’m off to the gym.

[molette67]

I am wondering the same thing

[TheThirdRuffian]

Sorry, there is no conservative left to vote for; all are more-or-less equally foul.

I will vote for Fred in the Primary.

In the general, I will probably still vote for Fred.

Karl Rove said (rougly) “FVck the conservatives; where will they go?”

Well, F-you Karl, I am not playing your RINO game.

[FourtySeven]

Oh well, we're doomed. Let's hope it'll be minimal damage until 2012.

< sigh > I can't describe how deflated and disappointed I feel now.

Duncan Hunter is out of the race. Fred Thompson is out of the race. And I don't particularly care for any of the other candidates. I dunno; I quit.

[tpanther]

I know how you feel, but remember to fight on in local and state elections and hard is it is...remember we have to consider selecting the least damaging president, not so much to our party as our whole country!

Rush talked about this again today, his reasoning for the POSSIBILITY (I still say he won’t) of not voting Republican is they’re not so far apart from Shrillary. I disagree, except for Ron Paul all the Republican candidates are PRO Liberation of Iraq.

His other point was he’d prefer the country be damaged on the hypocrats watch.

My argument there is but what if that damage is so irrevocable it can’t be fixed?

Is it really worth that risk just so we could say “I told you so” or rebuild the Republican party, of which there is no guarantee...as it’s NOT us, it’s lack of leadeership! Us conservatives are still out here but we’re being woefully misrepresented! Hypocrats ruining the country is therefore NO guarantee we’ll somehow discover conservative leadership!

Lastly, who wants Bubba and Shrill spewing lies and traveling the world on our dime and essentially on TV everyday? I can’t stomach 4 more weeks of her let alone 4 YEARS?

[4woodenboats]

Much better to hear the cheerful Bush talk about why we need to fight wars because of “UN Resolutions,” about fighting terrorists except when we give them guns and money like we do with the Palestinians, cheerfully call us sexist for not supporting Harriet Miers, and tell us with a smile on our face about how we’re negative naybobs for demanding that ugly fence with mexico. We’re also vigilantes and racists, ya know

There's not a shred of truth in any of that garbage. You've been listening to Rong Paul and Hillary! for so long, you're starting to sound like them.

Post links where President Bush

"Called us a sexist",

"Smiled in our face and called us 'Naybobs",

"Vigilantes" and

"Racists".

Post links where these come from HIS mouth to US, as you claim, or clamp a frigging' lid on it!

BTW, in case you Paulettes haven't noticed, BUSH ISN'T RUNNING!!

[freddy2008]

then don’t vote and let Hillary and or Obama run the White House...

it sucks, but you have to go with what sucks least.

[alstewartfan]

Right you are. I think Fred’s sales pitch came too late. I could enumerate several other mistakes that he made, but the points are moot now. My problem is that no one else is even TRYING to sell the issues about which I care most. Since we have had a virtual vacuum of conservative rhetoric since 1995 with “pragmatists” Gingrich, Hastert and Pres. Bush in leadership, maybe people have become too ignorant of civic values to understand a candidate such as Fred. Americans have become limp-wristed weenies, with the hand attached to those wrists groping for handouts. Best, Bob

[4yearlurker]

I did state “that I WANT to vote for” Also I just might do that. Not one is a conservative.

[kinsman redeemer]

I snuck into you office and scanned it with my black helicopter document scanner:

[SuziQ]

The media is treating him exactly the same as they always did. I’m not surprised.
