Just don’t post that. It has a history of getting pulled. LOL
This article is taking a legal statement about how legal representation works and twisting it to say he did actually work for this firm.
I understand. I posted Fred’s Powerline piece yesterday too.
Now i could go for Daffy.
Oh...I forgot the “official” excuse. Fred wasn’t trying help Aristide get back in power (even though the form he signed says this) but was fighting to end the embargo (even thouugh the form he signed doesn’t mention this).
Because given 3 opportunities to deny doing this work, he hasn’t. Looks a bit fishy, in light of his campaign manger’s blanket denial.
A man’s gotta put bread on the table.
You don’t help Duncan Hunter by constantly getting on the Fred Threads and bashing him without any rational reason to do so.
As I think I said to another Hunter supporter the other day, I think he’s a good man. But he will only get into the race if he gets his numbers up. And he will only get his numbers up if his supporters show that he is the best candidate and that he can win.
Bashing Rudy or Mitt or Fred only means that one of the other of these three will profit. The single digit candidates will remain single digits unless they do something POSITIVE to break out of the pack.
In other words, you are only annoying people and gaining nothing by it.
I hope not.
I'm not impressed by him or what he's done.
I say this because in the past I've never heard him rail against this ever growing government or our lawless borders. Before this current up coming election, never have I seen him stand up in Congress or anywhere else, and voice outrage at the state of affairs in this country.
Some people just keep saying, "Boy, I hope Fred is the next President". And that's it.
What's he done? Where is the leadership? Has he stood up in Congress or anywhere else, and pounded on the tables demanding less government and secured borders?
If he has, please post the link to the video.
I’m with the FREDeration,but I like the Hunter too...
Thompson/Hunter is a winning ticket IMHO.
If I’m annoying you, fine.
You annoy me with your tapdancing for Fred.
As for Hunter, I’ve posted scores of articles in recent weeks and months about his stellar qualifications. So many that he now only trails Fred on FR 60-40. Looking for 50-50 in a few weeks.
And btw, I posted this article, so it is you who are coming on and complaining, not the other way around.

The only “field day” the Dems will have after Fred wins the GOP nomination will be to get their butts kicked off of the playing field.
Hill’s high negatives against Fred’s much lower negatives. Her shrill fingernails-on-a-blackboard screech against Fred’s smooth-as-12-year-old-bourbon deep, mellow voice.
Hill’s for big socialist government, higher taxes, illegal amnesty, abortion on demand, abandoning our friends in the mideast,ignoring the WOT and hoping it will go away, grabbing your guns and taking away your property for the good of the state.
Fred’s for smaller government, lower taxes, secure borders, SCOTUS judges who will send Roe back to the states, victory in the mideast, killing terrorists, protecting your RKBA and defending your property rights.
No contest. McGovern-type landslide.
Her Senate record versus his? Fred wins!
Her past versus his? Voters will be reminded of crooked land deals, missing Rose law firm records, Travelgate, Whitewater, Monica & other bimbo eruptions, obstruction of justice, loss of Bubba’s law license, a lot of people who perished under strange circumstances, Roger Clinton’s nose candy, socialized medicine, rape charges, etc. The Hildabeast loses hands down!
What do you think...?
Thompson/Hunter vs. Clinton/Edwards....
Something tells me that’s how it will end up. Two winners against two losers.
I'm just curious: would you cut Rudy, McCain, or Romney so much slack if one of them claimed to have forgotten or would have you concluded he was lying?
What troubles me about this is that if Fred is such an abortion foe, why wasn't he immediately and greatly conflicted? This should have been a moral dilemma of first rank; not the kind of thing you easily forget. I'm hoping this is an isolated event and not the first of a series of events where Fred sets aside his convictions for convenience's sake.
This one event (even if proven to be true) doesn't change my positive opinion of Fred Thompson but it does make me uneasy.
Seriously, if this is the best the opposition can offer, this is going to be a cakewalk for Thompson.
This is probably just the opening salvo. Why would the opposition open fire until the candidate is clearly in the race?
But the msm keeps pointing out that Rudy was loved at Regent university, and he was leading in polls of Evangelicals...
Rudy’s electorial problem is that he and the Hildebeast will be competing for the same voters....
Duncan Hunter has always been favored by Freepers. The question is, can he be nominated? To do that, you and his other active supporters need to get the word out and get his numbers up.
The most critical thing now, I should think, is to keep him in the race as some of the also-rans drop out of it. That means that he needs to beat out folks like Ron Paul and Tancredo, not Fred, Mitt, or Giuliani. He needs to survive into the time when they cut down on the numbers invited to the debates, putting him into the final four.
I happen to think that Giuliani is the worst candidate of the bunch, for instance, but realistically he is likely to remain in the race until the convention, simply because that’s where his numbers put him.
No harm in posting this article, since we should be aware of what’s being said. But frankly it doesn’t say anything much except that this Politico writer is getting anxious about Fred doing too well.
You gotta be kidding me. FDT has a 100% solid pro-life voting record.
