Fred Thompson is the 'dullest knife in the drawer' among Repub Candidates...

[Blackhatjack]

The list of adjectives to describe Fred Thompson is almost endless -- 'disengaged, lazy, confused, ignorant, dull, uninformed, unambitious, laid-back, wrong, ...."

And he is the second leading candidate according to the polls of Republicans?

Oh my! It may be painful for Repubs to watch... but Dems can only say 'bring him on......"

[polichick]

1. Here's the best description...

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Blackhatjack]

2. LOL

[grytpype]

4. I think it was Atrios who said...

... he looks like an old carp sucking on a lemon.

But he sure is sexy!

:eyes:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

32. Fred's got a face like

an old man's scrotum.

[Skittles]

19. my favorite: human cabbage

yes INDEED :thumbsup:

[Blackhatjack]

3. I heard Repubs liked the fact that he 'listens' rather than talking...

Of course, it is difficult to tell when he is 'listening' and when he is 'daydreaming or asleep.'

[HughMoran]

18. C'mon! Republicans are republicans because they know everything already

Listening is NOT a quality appreciated by Republicans!

[Cha]

5. How about, "the Dullest

Tool"?

[zabet]

6. A 5 watt bulb

in a box of 25 watt bulbs.
Face it, ain't none of the GOP 'shining' too brightly
these days.

[karlrschneider]

9. Or, a "pre-tested" Flashbulb.

;-)

[zabet]

12. ...

:rofl:

[Island Blue]

7. 'disengaged, lazy, confused, ignorant, dull, uninformed, unambitious, laid-back, wrong, ...."

You've just described the Republicans perfect candidate. The only thing Fred lacks is a daddy who once lived in the White House.

[karlrschneider]

8. Any good chef knows a dull knife is far more dangerous than a sharp one.

Not kidding, the explicit form of that claim is absolutely true and so is the implicit one!

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

10. Apt!

:toast: MKJ

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

11. delete dupe

MKJ

[Flabbergasted]

14. Frankly I've always thought that was a load of shit.

Knives don't make good chefs.

[knight_of_the_star]

16. I've never cut myself on a sharp tool

Its always the dull ones that I've nicked myself with because they take more force to work, leading to inherent danger right there.

[Flabbergasted]

17. I learned with dull knives. I just pay attention to the blade.

And I make some of the best soup around. No joking.

Ultimately Fred has been shockingly obtuse.

[HughMoran]

20. I have some quality knives that have cut everyone in my family

They are so sharp that they cut the skin with so light a touch that you can't even believe you cut yourself but the dripping blood says otherwise!!

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

31. Gotta kick HughMoran's family dripping blood.

:kick: MKJ

13. Health issues

Thompson also has significant health issues. He should be made to name his running mate so that people will know who will fill his shoes if something happens to him.

[rucky]

23. Does it have anything to do with the size of his liver?

[momster]

15. For those who read Lovecraft

doesn't he have that 'Innsmouth look'?

[triguy46]

21. And Tweety cackled tonight, on just this topic:

"Well, yeah, but how did he get such a good looking young wife???" What an insipid dipshit. Both of them. All three of them.

[Canuckistanian]

27. Yes, what would make a young woman marry such a rich old fart? Hmmm.

I'm stumped.....

[rucky]

22. Maybe he's just stoned?

'disengaged, lazy, confused, ignorant, dull, uninformed, unambitious, laid-back, wrong


it's fine if he is, but I wouldn't advise anyone in that state to run for President.

[Blackhatjack]

24. Repubs claim he is loved and adored in Tenn... what does that say about Tenn?

[Blackhatjack]

25. Thompson is totally lost speaking without a script... Shuster on Countdown played one...

videoclip of his address to voters in Iowa. They were so glazed over and bored that he had to ask them to give him a round of applause at the end of his remarks, and then he said "I had to drag that out of you."

Typical.

[tabasco]

26. Just what the leaders of our plutocracy desire.

A stupid stuffed-shirt like Reagan who will never have the inclination to make a decision.

28. Fred Thompson

Fred Thompson proposes universal movie coverage for all Americans

Republican presidential candidate Fred Thompson today announced his plan to offer free copies of the movies that he has appeared in to all Americans.    
Speaking at veterans halls in Iowa today, Thompson told those gathered that starting October first, his campaign office would begin giving away free VHS tapes of randomly selected moves that he has appeared in to any registered voter – Democrat or Republican - via his “Fred08” website........

29. Regarding Thompson -- Now that hound just don't hunt!

[sutz12]

30. Well, let's see....Rayguns, Bush, Shrub....yep, he should be a shoo in. nt

[AlCzervik]

33. he's out of it, like something isn't there, he seems confused.

i'm not kidding.

[Perseid]

34. the winda of opportunity

[H2O Man]

35. He's a plastic spoon

among dull republican knives.
