Comments on: Thompson To Enter GOP Presidential Race

Former U.S. Senator And Actor Will Announce Campaign Details Via Webcast On Sept. 6

[wangbang]

Wow, if he wins, for the first time ever we will have a First Lady who will elicit calls of "Show us your t*ts!" from the crowd!

[kansas1946]

He has just spent too much time being a lobbyist for my taste. I am not fond of lobbyists, and I really don''t want one for a president. Besides, there is just something about this guy that doesn''t ring true.

[afmca]

He is just a more polished version of George Bush. He is just as intellectually weak and lazy. He is already bowing down and kissing the butt*s of the religious nut jobs. We have been under the power of bigoted southern politicians for almost 7 years with Bush, DeLay, Lott, Frist, etc. .. we don''t need another actor pretending to be President. If this is all the Republicans have to offer they really don''t deserve to lead the country.

IN ALL HONESTY HE DOES NOT LOOK WELL.

[starleo146]

The party is in disarray right now and can''''t decide what direction they want to take.

YOU MIGHT CHECK THE BATHROOMS OF AIRPORTS.

Scared Liberal here. I am scared that once again a hot button candidate will take the election and continue the Reagan bushdaddy bushbaby tradition of forking over our great grandchildrens tax dollars to Megacorporations to run offshore with. I am afraid of more years of warrantless wiretaps, no-knock search warrants from secret courts and a bloated federal bureaucracy to keep the peasants in line.

Moron. Hillary comes out of the South.

[seven-pesos]

bush loving, southern, republican christian snakes...

[donnie900]

You got the wrong guy, liberals. We''re not the enemy.

[thisandthat1]

speakinup? You forgot "lazy", "dimwitted" and and "slow"

[donnie900]

Not that I''d know anything about crime investigating, other than what I see on teevee.

[donnie900]

Isn''t it funny how political analysis seems like a criminal investigation?

[speakinup]

My, My... Look at all the scared Liberals coming out of the woodwork. They sit in judgement of Fred. Mocking him. "the great whilte hope", "bible thumper", "puts on the good ole boy persona", "Another S&L crook", "He looks like Frankenstein and is every bit as bright.".

Ok, ok - we hear your contempt for this "wanna be".

Or, would that be FEAR ? Fear that even Fred can beat the best you have to offer, (snicker) Hillary.

I mean, if he''s such a lousy posibility for President, I would think any person of INTELLIGENCE in the opposite party would be cheering for the ''bum''.

Looking forward to another four years, libs ? You''d better.

[kansas1946]

well, kansas... he might be the great white hope, but at least the best man in our party isnt a woman.

**************
Not exactly sure what that means, but, you know, I am a bit slow. I don''t have a party, so I will vote for the best man (or woman). It is just that the Republicans don''t have anyone that vaugely interests me. I am sure that will change, because I have voted for many Republicans in the past. The party is in disarray right now and can''t decide what direction they want to take.

[thisandthat1]

Question: How do you know when your political party is in serious trouble? Answer: If you''re jumping up and down with your arms in the air, yelling ''WE WANT FRED...WE WANT FRED" ... that could be a clue.

[frb01]

As soon as he enters the race, the media will jump on the health issue and talk about Jackie Kennedy and Paul Tsongas who I think both died from the same illness. But we probably need to have that debate because it has been since Johnson or Eisenhower that we had real seroius presidential health issues.

[seven-pesos]

a little flag waving...a little bible thumping,

all those redstate christian creeps will fall right in line boy.

ha,ha,ha.

those redstate people are so gullible.

look how the fell for all that bush bullsheet.

[glossypan]

curtis 412 is right... Fred Thompson is not stupid. He is a Gucci and Armani wearing superslick lawyer and lobbyist. He puts on the good ol boy persona to lead the sheeple to the ballot box.

[donbl1]

Uncle Fred will do well in most of the states outside of the NE. Might even do well in Southern California.......

Uncle Fred has a slow peaceful delivery that will contrast pretty sharply with Rudy Giuliani or Hillary (I returned the money) Clinton. He has gravitas. And, when giving a prepared speech, pretty effective.

Lot of Washington knowledge and at 6''6" will tower over the others when in a video comparison.

This could be a fun election. A pretty sharp contrast with fellow republicans and the democrats.

[curtis41]

This will be a great contest of one conservative federalist and one moderate against a socialist and one newbie. Should be nastier than usual. Fred Thompson is not only on time, he was not so stupid as to start to early on a campaign. Of course, he will have to overcome the enthusiastic endorsement of Clinton/Obama by Fidel Castro and other communist dictators. Looks like the left wing bloggers go to this site first. There are two good men running out front, Fred Thompson and Rudy Guiliani. Or, we could vote for higher taxes, governmental gridlock, no 2nd amendment rights (sort of like in Washington, D.C.,, NY and Chicago). We can have warmed over socialized medicine and other dumb governmental programs that government has no business running. If the government sold beer, it would be $90 a six-pack and 90 days delivery. Why not restrict government to roles it can do better than the private sector. Also, secure our north and south borders before you give away the store. We need a President who is NOT afraid to tackle the hard issues and is not concerned with just the next election and their own skin and golden parachute. For the security of our republic, we need someone who will NOT cut and run and I do not see this in either leading democratic candidate, lots of lips moving, but lacking both ability and intent. Fred Thompson will help pull out every GOP and Independent voter and get a LOT of anti-Hillary Clinton votes to boot. Stay tuned September 6th or thereabouts.
