Wouldn’t that be for the same reason that everything Fred Thompson said pretty much was ignored by the press?
I’m not trying to be overly gullible here, I’m simply trying to figure out why you think the AP lied about a direct quote, but that Fred has refused to correct it.
Do you think Fred doesn’t KNOW that everybody is saying he supports McCain? Do you think he doesn’t support McCain but doesn’t think it’s important enough to correct the AP story?
I understand I guess that you don’t want to believe Thompson would back McCain. I just want to see some evidence of it before I join you in your belief.
I actually don’t care if he endorses McCain, particularly if he did it when it was already evident that the nomination would be McCain’s. Who else was he to endorse at that point? Ron Paul?
What I have a problem with is this ‘statement’ that nobody can seem to produce and nobody seemed to make any record of aside from a single writer at the AP mentioning it in an article about something else.
Why do I think the AP lied? I don’t know if they did or didn’t. But I have reason to doubt them because they’ve been proven to be full of crap on multiple past occasions. Kinda like Mitt Romney, but that’s another matter... :p
