I Predict Old Man Thompson Backs Out Before the End of the Month ---pix--->>>

[Stephanie]

Unless they make Campaign Cialis, he will be out before October. Just look at this guy! He's about to drop and he's only been campaigning for a few days. This is their rock star, their glamour candidate?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

1. The cornstalks next to the flag

LOL

He does look beat. I am so not worried about Fred Thompson.

[swag]

2. "Old Man Thompson"

I laugh so hard it hurts.

[Stephanie]

3. I was going to call him Smelly Old Man Thompson

but it's just a little too long... :)

[daninthemoon]

4. I would've gotten away with it if it wasn't for those darn kids.

[htuttle]

88. He'll say that right after they tear the Reagan mask from his face

:rofl:

[yurbud]

29. His voice reminds me of the narrator of those old Disney nature movies: "The duck farts underwater..

then swims away before the bubbles of toxic fumes can rise to the surface..."

[zonkers]

74. Like the narrator in "Charlie the Lonesome Cougar"? (

[yurbud]

86. I don't remember that one, but it sounds about right.

[Rosemary2205]

33. We affectionately call him "The Aqua Velva man".

And to the OP - Fred doesn't look like shit because of campaigning, he just plain looks like shit all the time.

[MADem]

42. "You kids get offa my lawn!!!!!!" nt

[Cha]

5. And what was that on the front

of newsweak? "Lazy Like a Faux"?

[Radio_Lady]

23. So, I looked for a better photo of the guy. See THIS ONE:

[yurbud]

30. the one of him listening to the radio in the flapper dress looks hot.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

54. That's probably his own suit, which he bought new

when he was maybe about 40.

[Hubert Flottz]

69. Freddy as a boy?

I've seen those kind of threads before man!

[countingbluecars]

6. I think you might be right.

He does not look up to campaigning.

[Disturbed]

7. Aw shucks this is hard work.

Mitt Romney linked to Bush family; Jeb Bush encouraged to run for president
From our "will we never learn/will the nightmare never end" department comes this:
Jeb Bush, who hasn't publicly picked a favorite in the Republican presidential race, privately is talking up the candidacy of Mitt Romney and steering some of his closest advisers to the campaign.

The former Florida governor has said repeatedly he won't be a candidate in 2008 despite encouragement from his father, the former president, and his brother, the current one. But Jeb Bush's support, even tacit, would be critical in the state that decided the 2000 presidential election.

is one of several former Bush confidantes in the Romney camp. Others include his hand-picked, former state party chairman Al Cardenas, and Sally Bradshaw, 's former campaign manager and chief of staff...

[daninthemoon]

10. OMG....just had a thought.....VP Jeb?

[Yael]

17. My heart just skipped a beat. Or a (dare I say it)

Hillary/Jeb? :scared:

I know, never happen, but can you imagine that?

Bush/Clinton/Clinton/Bush/Bush/Bush+Clinton

Rinse and repeat...

[momster]

75. Mitt and Jeb?

The anti-ads just write themselves....

[HughMoran]

8. Yeah, he looks like he could use a stiff shot of Old T

It's not so easy as he thought I guess.

[Peregrine Took]

47. What's "old T?"

Thunderbird??

[Peregrine Took]

48. I bet he has a sudden urge to "spend time" with his "you know what." n/t

[HughMoran]

52. Old Thompson Whiskey

We drank boiler-makers using this stuff as kids - yikes!

[wildhorses]

9. i call him 'fish face fred' cos i like the alliteration of it all

:bounce:

[Stephanie]

16. He's wearing more bronzer in pic 4 than George Hamilton has worn in his whole life.

And it's not helping.

[L. Coyote]

11. Listen carefully to his speech. He does not sound like a real contender. His moment in history?

[grytpype]

12. He looks so manly and masculine!

I'm not gay, but if I was I would be on that like stink on a monkey!

Woof!

[havocmom]

13. All that foot dragging before he finally announced...

just buying time until Diz got the Stepford model launched? ;)

[BlooInBloo]

14. Just an old lazy blowhard geezer.

[emilyg]

24. Yes.

[MnFats]

15. OMG! the outdoor pix...somebody douse him with a vat of Gatorade?

I can imagine him giving a speech from the oval office and sweating like Albert Brooks in "Broadcast News."

[Gregorian]

18. He's part Klingon, part halibut.

Darn. If his hand weren't in the way, I'd have a great photoshopportunity.

[Swamp Rat]

68. You're getting warmer...

:D

[janx]

19. Wow.

Was someone actually portraying him as some kind of glamor candidate?

[zabet]

20. Check out the shirt the guy talking to Dead Fred

is wearing!!!! :rofl:



edit to add 'is' - was laughing too hard to type

[countingbluecars]

21. Too funny! eom

[opihimoimoi]

27. The Republicans have no one to excite us, no one to Stand Tall, no one to give HOPE.. EMPTY

CHEATS< LIARS< DENIGRATERS

[Nostradammit]

31. The only pic where old Fred is smiling, I notice. n/t

[zabet]

34. Probably hoping

he can score a 'nick' to get by with. :rofl:

[Nostradammit]

40. He just felt the doobie in that guy's hand.

:rofl:

[janx]

41. This would be an excellent pic to include in Fred's

campaign literature! :rofl:

[eridani]

63. And what time is it?

It's always 4:21!

[ellenfl]

22. sorry, i just don't see the glamour. eom

[zalinda]

25. He's on TeeVee !!!!! n/t

[ellenfl]

32. lol, so was pee wee herman. what's your point? eom

[zalinda]

62. That's the point

Aren't people on TeeVee, better than the rest of the world. (Do I have to put a sarcasm smilie?) Okay, just to make sure people get it.:sarcasm:

[ellenfl]

71. i got it . . . i was being sarcastic too.

:) unfortunately, emoties don't work on the subject line. :shrug: also unfortunately, the repugs think ronnie raygun walked on water. isn't it funny how every actor who has held office has been republican? well, except governor sunshine, of course.

ellen fl

[autorank]

26. Republicans of the Korn K*R

Damn, this is great. That last picture is frightening, in a really creepy way. Now you've given me nightmares;)

[yurbud]

28. that last one looks like a Dick Tracy villain

[Virginia Dare]

35. He doesn't look at all healthy or strong...

I think the bridezilla is pushing him into this.

[janx]

36. Here's another stud...

Will we get to see them duke it out? :rofl:

[KT2000]

Is he lying about his age?

They say he is 65 but he must be in his 70's at least. :shrug:

[Contrary1]

37. Fred best get used to wearing the Kevlar...

It hasn't even begun to heat up yet.

[Coexist]

38. wow - he is now officially 'Shar Pei' Thompson

[eppur_se_muova]

78. or "The Big Kahona" ...

[DemGa]

39. Well, resurrecting St. Reagan was fun while it lasted

I predict "the Fred" will be dismissed shortly.

[Island Blue]

43. What the hell is it with sweaty Republicans?

Ewwwww.:puke:

[BlooInBloo]

55. Apparently you have seen the pages running around in their cute little shorts.

[allalone]

83. flop sweat! eom

[Taverner]

44. Thompson has no chance

This election is the Dem's to lose.

Unfortunately, some elements seem intent on losing this one...

[LeftyMom]

45. Half Dead Fred looks it. nt

[NNN0LHI]

46. His eyes look like two piss holes in a snow bank n/t

[WinkyDink]

49. That last photo is ludicrous. Man, Gore would eat this guy alive.

[Stephanie]

51. he'd have him for lunch

cross fingers!

[Kahuna]

50. He looks like one of those scaly lagoon creatures in horror flicks..

:scared:

[rockymountaindem]

53. Woah, someone who sweats more than me

Holy crap.

[Octafish]

56. He's just acting.

His wife will keep him young.

Besides, the BFEE's backing Willard the Rat as a vehicle for beep beep for veep Jebthro.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

57. He really doesn't give good face, does he?

Not that that should be a deciding factor in a politician, but considering his background it is a bit anti-climatic.

He can't work a crowd like Reagan. He lacks ability to come off as personable. He can't give face like Reagan. How is he supposed to be their next hollow candidate without those prerequisites?

[pacalo]

58. Here's a younger picture when he had hair...

[Lone_Star_Dem]

60. I'm reminded of Nixon looking at that photo

Is it just me?

[BlueStater]

65. I think that's a photo of Edward G. Robinson

He's a long-dead actor from the Golden Age of Hollywood.

[pacalo]

87. Don't you think there's a resemblence?

Not only do they look similar (to me), but the reason Robinson came to mind was stated by you: long-near-dead actor from the Golden Age of Hollywood.

:evilgrin:

[itsrobert]

59. You can buy his mask online

[bridgit]

61. why does a candidate's front people insist on sending them out there...

in freaking powder blue shirts criminy!!! they already sweat like criminals under a 3rd degree spot light :rofl:

[cboy4]

64. Ughh, these childish comments, the laughing, mocking, the death watch...

Damn, why didn't I think of starting this thread first!?

[Faux pas]

66. Looks like they just exhumed him. Yikes! and LOL if this is the

best they've got.

[DFW]

67. If he announces Cheney as his VP candidate, be VERY afraid...

[Vinca]

70. I rarely encourage plastic surgery, but . . .

:rofl:

[LibDemAlways]

72. It seems like he's looking around for the director to yell "cut" so

that he can go home and take a nap.

Reminds me of Hugh Hefner, still trying to play the part of a virile stud when it's pretty obvious if he was anybody else, he'd be playing cards in the basement of the senior center.

Enough, already.

[Minimus]

73. But I'm sure his wife loves him for what's on the inside

of his bank account.

[Imagevision]

76. Thompson does look like death warmed-over, his chicky-poo better have some side action lined up...

[Javaman]

77. Looks like his face is about to slide off his skull. nt

[onethatcares]

79. they can compare him to reagan

he's already looking like he's dead.

[onenote]

80. I predict you are wrong

I don't think he'll get the nomination, but he'll be around at least through Super Tuesday in Feb 08

[Stinky The Clown]

81. Hahahahaha

Hahahahahahahahaha

[paparush]

82. Errrrr! Fire....... BAD!!!!!

[alittlelark]

84. I haven't really paid attn before... damn, he's positively geriatric.

I think you're right about him abandoning the race soon.

[MODemocrat]

85. Wow, is it true he's only 65 years old?

How can they even make themselves believe he's another Ronald Reagan? Not that I like Ronnie, but he did look younger than Thompson, even though he was older at the time. He looks exhausted in one of the photos. If he expects to keep up with his young wife; maybe he'd better re-think his priorities.
;( :eyes: :think:
