Sorry for singling you out, but your post is such a perfect example of what I am talking about I must ask you.....
BASED ON WHAT?
Do you have ANY IDEA about Thompson's sexual issues? The media does, and so does most of Washington. SOLID? Based on WHAT?
I bet you cant name three bills (even with Google) that Thompson got through the Senate, NONE of you can within the next 2 minutes unless your search engines are warmed up already.
FReepers know almost NOTHING about Thompson, but are jumping off that cliff like lemmings. This is getting sad to watch.
I think many of you are seeing Thompson as the Admiral in "Hunt for Red October" and thinking that this is what you would get in a Thompson presidency. I really do. So far, FReepers have shown that they really dont know much about the man at all. He's just the 'other' guy.
I would say that Fred is more rugged than handsome!
Your position implies that Hilary or Barack have substance.
Don't you think "ABB" was the same but worse?
It comes down to this:
JOHNNY BRAVO, baby. "you fit the suit!"
If Thompson gets into the race, Rommney backs down ands supports Thompson , the conservative movement is on the move. Pro life will be alive and well. Most of all the Clinton and liberal Rudy's will not be too happy. Thompson is just waiting. he really does not have to come into this until the end . Conservatives will be crying fr a conservative. Smart move;smart guy!You never know maybe Mitt will be vp. Mitt does not pretend to be anything he is not . Two good men !
the only messiah i am seeing touted on FR is rudy. or have you missed that?
In addition to acting, Thompson is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, the U.S. China Economic & Security Review Commission and a Visiting Fellow with the American Enterprise Institute, researching national security and intelligence (Communist China, North Korea, and Russia.) Thompson is also signed as a public speaker with the Washington Speakers Bureau.
Fixed it, LOL
OK! You have a legitimate fear, but I just can't bring myself to vote for Rudy, and i just don't believe that he is the only one that can defeat a dem.
His voting record in the Senate is what was solid and dependable. Any position he has changed on he has addressed without hesitation, unlike Romney, or even Rudy, who's recent "conversion" to supporting strict constructionists is about as genuine as Hillary Clinton's Southernness.
I know the guy had some high-profile babes (like Lorrie Morgan) when he was single. He was SINGLE. NOT married, unlike Giuliani.
I haven't seen anyone saying that. I do see people looking for and supporting candidates they don't have to sacrifice a multitude of core conservative values over, though, like the Rutards have to.
I won't have a tantrum, I'm not that stupid. Even if your buddy Julie Rudiani gets the nod, I'll stick a clamp on my nose, close my eyes, and vote for him against Hitlery or the Magic Negro.
If it is an act then conservative talk radio KVI out of Seattle is handing out thousands of I'M A FRED HEAD stickers at its booth at the Mariners game for nothing.
No, I feel this is not an act and he is truly testing the waters and there is a mega size grassroots organization that is chomping it to bits to get jump on board the Thompson For President bandwagon. He has allot of money to raise and little time to do it in. I have not donated to any candidate yet, but if Fred announces my check book is ready.
When does taping for L&O end? If he announces before the summer hiatus, the Demons would sue for equal time!
unfortunatly we have a decoy (tom) Thompson in the running.
I don't think so, testing the waters seems more like it.
Tommy couldn't get elected as dog-catcher in his home town. Just another @sshole on an ego trip.
I said your position implies, nothing more, nothing less.
If you can't see that the statement is completely relevent in addressing the point you are making, perhaps you shouldn't venture out and hold your arguments for others to view.
