Comments on: Thompson Drops Out Of White House Race

Former Senator, Actor Does Not Say If He Will Endorse Any Of His Republican Rivals

Looks like Huckabee is the main benefactor of Fred''s finally dying...and to McCain''s loss.

No more splitting of the Southern states votes. (Of course some states like FLA are not true South anyway.)

If Fred had dropped out a week ago Huck would have taken SC.

McCain takes the midwest; Huck takes the South; Rudy takes CAL and FLA; Romney takes the west. What a fiasco!

Isreal Committed International War Crimes with their actions in Gaza.

Even if Israel''s control in the Gaza Strip does not amount to "effective control" and the territory is not considered occupied, Israel still bears certain responsibilities under international humanitarian law. IHL is not limited to protecting civilians living under occupation, but includes provisions intended to protect civilians during an armed conflict, regardless of the status of the territory in which they live. Given that Israel contends that an armed conflict exists between it and the Palestinian organizations fighting against it, which has continued even after the disengagement, such provisions apply. These provisions are found, for example, in the Fourth Geneva Convention, pursuant to which Israel must protect the wounded, sick, children under age fifteen, and pregnant women, enable the free passage of medicines and essential foodstuffs, enable medical teams to provide assistance, and refrain from imposing collective punishment.

Really, who gives a *** what Fred Thompson does? He''s got to be the most irrelevant politician around. What was his message? Maybe his endorsement of McCain would count for something, but mainly he will be remembered as a lazy, grumpy old dud who tried to poison Huckabee''s chance.
