Thanks for the ping! Wonder if CSPAN will cover the event. If anyone hears about it being televised or about a tape of the event being available, please post the info. Thanks!

Fred will have to take a shower after sharing the room with “silky pony”.

[painter]

So do I.

[Politicalmom]

I bet you’ve had several highly successful careers, are in high demand as a speaker, and are known as a foreign affairs expert.

Or not.

[Politicalmom]

I hope he isn’t overcome by the fumes before he goes onstage.

:p

[jellybean]

Gosh, wish I had a “Fred”cup ...

You can still get a Fred cup HERE

[jellybean]

I'm not sure if my list is any more up to date than yours. Shortly after I consolidated the FRed list and the Daily FRead list my computer died. The list I'm using is one I had stored on a flash drive. I don't know when it was updated last.

[kaycee]

Ah, Jellybean, I miss your daily updates on Fred. May I join the FRED FOR PRESIDENT group? I supported him financially and hoped a miracle would happen. Sad to see the situation our country is in now.

[jellybean]

May I join the FRED FOR PRESIDENT group?

I'll be happy to put you on the FRed list. There's not much news anymore so you won't be pinged often. :(

[Molly T.]

Thanks for the info...

Nope, your right, I have not. I'm also not a hack candidate that suckers weak minded fools into voting for him because of how he sounds giving Paul Harvey updates either. But I'm sure a pro like Fredcan fool the same people with his expertise with the "wifi technology" audience on what an expert he is in that field as well! Wonder if PT Barnum was his great great grandfather?

[Reagan Man]

FRed bump!

[kaycee]

Thanks. Any crumb of info is better than seeing HRC or the Magic One(HA)! on the TV constantly. Voodoo is more like it.

This is a very good post politicalmind, for someone [not you, the recipient] who has nothing worthwhile to say.

I miss Fred because he is so intelligent, and had so much to say that was worthwhile. I miss you and jellybean and all the other Fred heads. Seldom see any of you posting very often when I am here. There aren’t many threads worth reading very often. Not even a good poll.

Sometimes I wonder if some posters aren’t campaign workers for McCain, or Obama, or Hillary.

[Bommer]

Hey at least they would be 3 people serious about wanting the job and willing to fight for it...or at least run for it!

"COME BACK FRED! I know you were serious about running!"

[daylilly]

Worthless drivel

[dixiechick2000]

"FRed ping!"

Thank you for the "fix." ;o)

[Bommer]

yes he was!

Apparently we haven't been graced with the presence of Romney or the Huckster, then.
