They portrayed his character, Adam, as a gentle thoughtful man.

I don't see Thompson's ability as an actor. He is no different in that role than the one he played in the senate.
A self-righteous, self-serving blowhard concerned only with his career and argued against the rule of law.....

There is nothing attractive about him. Period.

27. Personally, I don't see why political parties need "sex symbols"
to begin with.

I think it's degrading to the politician to think we need someone gorgeous in order to win and degrading to women to assume we'll only vote for a "hottie."

Now, if they HAPPEN to be both attractive AND intelligent, that's fine - but it shouldn't be a prerequisite with either party.

actually was physically good looking.

They talk as if we women are looking for a husband, in the old fashioned sense of protector, when we are looking for a president, and that's insulting right there!

That's not a terribly flattering picture of Thompson (although if it was selected from lesser pictures to use as a publicity still, maybe it's not that inaccurate after all). But still, it makes you wonder... separated at birth?

50. He's not qualified to be president for this alone.
In 1982, Thompson lobbied the U.S. Congress for deregulation of the Savings and Loan (S&L) industry. His recommendations were incorporated in the Garn - St Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982, which allowed thrifts to invest in potentially more profitable, but riskier, ventures; eliminated interest-rate ceilings on new accounts; and granted additional government support to ailing S&Ls. This Act was a contributing factor to the Savings and Loan crisis of the late 1980s.

61. Casting couch. He got his movie career started, because he was considered sexy and desireable.
The casting couch is a euphemism for a widely recognized sociological phenomenon that involves the trading of sexual favors by an aspirant, apprentice employee, or subordinate to a superior, in return for entry into an occupation, or for other career advancement within an organization.

This practice is thought to be a phenomenon in careers which are highly desirable and traditionally difficult to break into, primarily the movie, television, advertising and music industries. Such trading of favors may be considered an abuse of power, and become a wider sex scandal if deemed newsworthy.

65. Let's make one thing perfectly clear: Fred's not hot.
But, judging from the wife, he must be very rich.:rofl:

66. I've never trusted Rush's judgment on anything else and I see no
reason to trust him on this either.

67. Wow, Rush has historically been attracted to TEENAGE BOYS...
but now he's getting all sweaty about Lobby Fred.
Is the bloviator "maturing"?

75. Are you sure they were that old?
"Some people say" (thank you, Faux News) that the boys in the DR weren't yet teenagers.
Ole "Jeff Christie" has come a long way from his days of soliciting male prostitutes and collecting unemployment.

70. "Sew women up" literally? That's kinda kinky
But I can see how he brings out the nurse in people. Just looking at him, I feel the need to change his bed pan.

73. That's right, he's a hunk, isn't he?
The day I take Lorrie Morgan's advice about anything is the day I should just tear up my voter card. Permanently.

87. What? You wouldn't even take Lorrie Morgan's advice on career longevity?
Naaa, probably not. What sane person would? :)

74. Not bloody likely.
Then again, Mr. Anal Cyst has, at best, a tenuous relationship with reality. What part of multiple failed marriages does he not understand?

86. Gawd, who comes up with this shit?
Jowly McFrogface is the fugliest one of the bunch, and that is really saying something! I mean, putting on my "objectivity" hat, I can see Romney being reasonably good-looking in that generic pod-person kind of way. And Mike Huckabee is kind of cute if you like the 50s-dad-next-door type.

But Thompson? Not with a stolen cootchie.

88. Spread the rumor that he's the one gay men want to exchange bodily fluids with
and see what that does. ;)

89. Why did you feel the need to say this? Just so you know, gay
people are tired of negativity being associated with being gay.

Are you insinuating that gay people are promiscuous for being interested in "exchanging body fluids."

It seems to be a trend....the best way to villainize the evil Republicans is to infer that they're gay or associated with gay people.

Maybe you're not aware of this, which is why I'm pointing it out.

...no one would EVER believe any gay man would want to have sex with Fred Thompson.

101. LOL! I just found this thread.
Now I want to throw up! Maybe when he was younger, he was probably okay looking. In fact, he looks like an older Kelsey Grammer.

The idea that Thompson is somehow appealing to women is just SO wrong on SO many levels.
