I'm warming up to Thompson for president. I enjoyed reading your post, but...

...who are you and why should I care about your political opinions?

This just shows the MSM bias against conservatives.

Their afraid because Thompson would beat Hilldog by a landslide.

IMO, Fred’s decline in the polls seems to have begun when he said of the Schiavo case (on 9/13)

“I can’t pass judgment on it. I know that good people were doing what they thought was best,” Thompson said. “That’s going back in history. I don’t remember the details of it.”

It certainly took the wind out of my sails. :(

I thought Terri Schiavo was a tragedy as well. But...r
Do you really think Congress can come in and pass special bill every time there is a miscarriage of justice, even a serious one, at the state level? The intention was good, but such a policy is bad.

So, because Thompson wasn’t as deeply immersed in the story as we here at FR were, he’s not a good candidate? Illogical.

Looking back over your posts, I find no “wind in your sails” to begin with concerning FRed.

No harm, no foul, eh?

Excellent post. Thank you.

I think you were able to put into one set of understandable words what many of us were saying in bits and pieces.

Again, great post.

At least Thompson’s voting record has been consistanley pro-life, which is more than can be said of the other top tier candidates.

Do you really think that nobody is aware of your posting history?

Great work! :)

I think Thompson is in a good position as well. I think there are going to be a lot of pundits with egg on their face.

WOW! Since FDT enjoys the company of so many of the current administration, and of the Rockefeller Republicans, how can it be said the establishmeent is against him? All candidates sink or swim under their own weight if they are given fair air time, IMO.

If you are implying that my post is not consistent with my posting history, that’s wrong. I have consistently said I like Fred better than the rest, but I’m disappointed about the Schiavo comments. (As I have written before.)
Never have I expressed anything positive about any others but Hunter (whom I’ve never supported outright or preferred).
So, what’s your point and what’s your problem? Or do you just prefer misleading innuendo?

I'm not going to do the legwork for you, but you're mistaken.

Is there some kind of Duncan Hunter Random Nonsense Word Generator that you use to make up these little screeds against FRed?

Clara Lou, the whole country and in particular the US Congress had an opinion on Schiavo.
