[spanone]

1. he's a D.C. doofus....a sacrificial lamb....not a chance in hell of winnning.

8. Did you notice throughout his speech Thompson HEAD BUTTS the air.

Did you notice throughout his speech Thompson HEAD BUTTS the air.


You can see Fred Thompson headbutting the air throughout his speech from beginning to end of the event.



I saw the following on his bus.

"UNITED BY OUR bigotry, dislike for normal taxes, blacks, jews, catholics, unemployed, and anyone not white and republiklan"


OK I put the lower case text in, but his bus does have a sign "UNITED BY OUR CORE BELIEFS"

Yes we can see your hard core beliefs Mr. Thompson. They don't differ too much from Herbert Hoover's beliefs.

11. Just what 'merika needs.. a wrinkly old guy to usher in the 21st century

35 is really too young of a minimum age, but I would kind of like to see an upper age limit for the FIRST election... say 62 (the earliest age one could collect social security)..

The ideal range would be 48-58.. Young enough to probably be healthy and able to do two terms, but old enough to have the serious family responsibilities out of the way..

It's a tough job,.not a hobby for a dilettante

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/wn_report/2007/09/08/2007-09-08_fred_thompson_al_qaeda_smoking_ban_pushe.html found this via talkingpoints memo. We are winning in Iraq because of an al queada smoking ban. :crazy:

[valerief]

4. Say what? They can stop them from smoking but not bombing US soldiers?

Oh, he's a double dufus.

And this is the reason "our children isn't learning."

<<Carol Perrin, 62, a retired schoolteacher, said, "I was impressed. I don't think he's selling us a bill of goods.">>

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

[SoCalDem]

9. Says what he means and means what he says?..wtf?

and that would be ?? WHAT???

Republicans are in love with cliches.. They never have to actually think..if it sounds ok..

"Morning in America"..wtf?
"Shining city of the hill"...wtf?
"Thousand Points of Light...wtf?

[TSIAS]

10. Was ready to post the same thing

Every damn caller is a robot. Some form of saying he has "honor and integrity".

I especially loved the fool who talked about how pleased he would be to serve Thompson as commander in chief.

[stlsaxman]

he's very stupid. who's putting him up to this? does he need the money that bad?
