Fred’s Campaign: Something to Keep Him Busy During Writer’s Strike
When Fred first announced he was going to run for President, I was pretty happy with that. He seemed like a good guy to have in the race, but the months of hemming and hawing about coming in made it quite clear to me that he really didn't want to run. But, I think he felt obligated after giving everyone the impression that he was going to. So he got in. Much of the time, it seemed like he wasn't really campaigning though, just going through the motions.
Waiting for the writer's strike to end, perhaps. Now that we have some writers crossing the lines (for talk shows, etc), Fred can get out and go back to his television and movie career, which seemed to make him happiest in the first place.
I'll miss him, though. But still. He wasn't going to win. So those who are left supporting him, time to swing your attention to someone who can win in the general election. Rudy perhaps. Or McCain. By far, they are the two most viable candidates on this side of the ticket. Voting for anyone else is voting for a sure fire loser. Neither is perfect but both are better than the alternative.

Fred Thompson was a mindless moron. here is a guy that actually stated in public on countless moments before the press. ‘ I will never apologise for being an American, when more American troops have laid their lives down in pursuit of freedom than all the other country’s combined. ‘
I as a Brit, am dumbfounded at the sheer arrogance of the man. I wrote to the CNN video forum on You tube hoping to get my video shown.
I wanted to ask him to explain to the millions of British French Russians and canadians and everyone else who had laid their lives down, how it is that America has lost more than everyone else combined.
The british lost more soldiers in World war one, than the USA has lost in its entire existance. !
maybe BS Fred Thompson spared us the worse, if he had been elected he might have actually had Freds version of History being taught in Public schools.
Ohh wait minute, Freds varety of history is one different from the BS being taught there today. Don’t forget most Americans dont have access to maps. !
