Er ah, yes, we knew that way back during the 2004 elections Fred. Were you napping?”
No Fred was on the case. You must have been the one napping.
Citizens United President David Bossie complained that liberal financier George Soros “has declared war on President Bush and his positive agenda for America.” Bossie promised to do everything within his power to “run counter-ads in support of the President.”
Fred thompson recorded two of those TV counter-ads (”Courage” and “Soldier”) for Citizens United in response to the Soros-funded MoveOn.org ads which were attacking President Bush and the war effort.
“Courage” was produced in March 2003, narrated by former Sen. Thompson, who praised President Bush for invading Iraq. “Thank goodness we have a president with the courage to protect our country,” Thompson said in the ad.
