Fred Thompson Inches Closer To '08 Run

Senator-Turned-Actor Creates Committee To Test Support For Presidential Bid

(AP)  Republican Fred Thompson took the first formal step toward a widely expected bid for the presidency, establishing a preliminary campaign committee on Friday.

The "testing the waters" committee allows Thompson — a former Tennessee senator and now best known for his film and television roles, including as a prosecutor on NBC's "Law & Order" — to raise money, hire staff and gauge support without officially committing to a White House bid and without having to publicly disclose donations or expenditures.

The "Friends of Fred Thompson" committee was incorporated in papers filed with the state in Nashville, Tenn.

Thompson, 64, a Southern conservative, would likely shake up an already unsettled race for the GOP nomination led by Rudy Giuliani, John McCain and Mitt Romney. Many conservatives have expressed dissatisfaction with the current field of 10 candidates.

By creating the committee now, Thompson avoids having to report to the Federal Election Commission his fundraising totals, donor identities or expenditures on July 15. That's the filing deadline for the second quarter of the year, and the top-tier GOP candidates, as well as seven underdog contenders, must abide by it.

Thompson's timing could significantly dampen the fundraising ability of his potential GOP rivals during the homestretch of the second-quarter financial reporting period. Donors who otherwise would have contributed to other Republicans may choose instead to give to Thompson.

Officials close to Thompson say he's more likely than not to formally enter the race, perhaps as early as July, and open headquarters in Nashville and the Washington, D.C., area. However, they caution, he's made no final decision about going forward.

Over the past few weeks, Thompson has begun surrounding himself with advisers who served under Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush. Among those also expected to play a role: Mary Matalin, a former adviser in the current Bush administration, and Tim Griffin, an ex-aide at the Republican National Committee who as a U.S. attorney in Arkansas was involved in the controversy over the firings of federal prosecutors.

Although he ranks well in national popularity polls, Thompson would enter the race several months behind Giuliani, McCain and Romney in building a campaign organization, raising money and collecting key endorsements.

Given the disparities, he has indicated he favors a nontraditional campaign and already has a strong presence on the Internet, raising the possibility that he could eschew a traditional media strategy.

[realpatriot1]

Wow! Is this guy ever decisive! It's good to know that in a crisis he'll inch toward action.

[stevepdx1]

seriously, how many articles all about the same thing - that he is taking steps toward running for president - do we really need in a 2 day period?

Hey CBS, I have some scoop for you, not reported anywhere yet.

Ready?

pssst.... Fred Thompson might run for president

he should stick with what he knows best - acting

[terrapin78]

He's only 64? He looks like he is 80.

I think he will die of the cancer he has before the election comes.

[stevepdx1]

"Among those also expected to play a role:... Tim Griffin, an ex-aide at the Republican National Committee who as a U.S. attorney in Arkansas was involved in the controversy over the firings of federal prosecutors"


this is the same knucklehead that was Rove's right hand man and was appointed by Alberto Gonzolez after the firings

so basically in Thompson we can expect more of the same from the Repubs - smear, fear and a lack of integrity

[jerr11]

Looks like Fred might get the nomination.

That's what the Republicans look for, all style and no substance.

And his acting credentials will help in promoting another round of scam and fraud on the American people.

How about another 600 billion dollar giveaway to the pharmaceutical companies?

Or perhaps another war to keep ******** Cheney's buddies at Halliburton busy?

Or another snub at the Kyoto accord to keep the oil companies happy?

Lots on the Republican agenda and Fred Thompson is the man for the job!

[suttonjo]

Fred Thompson looks like an old shrivled up prune. He should forget about trying to run for presidency and be more worried about dying of a heart attack as bad as he's aged.

The stock market hits Record Highs again today

414,000 Americans have moved from the unemployment lines to employment in the past 90 days. Most with health care again and now pay taxes into the US Treasury which is forcing the deficit down sharply.

A "Conservative Wave" is sweeping the planet right now. New Conservative governments in Germany, Mexico, France, and Canada.......................WHY ?? It not because of the war in Iraq ........ These countries are looking across the oceans and from the north of us and to the south and watching this "Republican" economy create millions of jobs........... so many jobs that we have employed 12 million people from other countries.

The Great American Economy.................the greatest story never told by our Corrupt Liberal MSM Wolfpack who work very hard on behalf of their close pals, the Dems, to "derail" our economy with stories on "sub-prime mortgages" and "housing bubble bust" and lying that all the new jobs are just minimum wage (one of the favorite lies)

Thank you Mr. President for doing a great job at managing the economy.........the French, Germans, Mexicans, and Canadians have been getting the "news" from their news organizations......... over here in the States our Corrupt Liberal Wolfpack is "censoring" this great and TRUE story...........REALLY SAD feels like Germany 1938 with America's "free left-wing press".

Forgotten is Paul Tsongas who ran for President in 1992 along with Bill Clinton. Left Congress in the 80's because of cancer, died several years after the 1992 election. The press will re-visit this because he had similar cancer.

[toldyouso21]

Fred better look beyond his popularity with the GOP and determine if the rest of America is even interested in him for President. At present the GOP presence among voters is about 29% so if this is not an exercise in just seeing if he can have the Republican candidacy and truly about really winning the Presidency--he should poll the rest of America before wasting money and time. Right now, the only GOP candidate that has even a remote chance of securing the nation's vote is Guiliani--and even his prospects are not very good.

[pintadossn]

Fred needs to go home, I think Rudy may have a chance to get elected, but Fred politics are to far right, so he would probably get the nomination, and loose the bid for the whitehouse, whereas Rudy in not so far to the right and in my opinion is electable!

[tomtomasters]

Before you do Freddie, I will tell you I am NOT voting for you, or any other stooge under the Republican/Democrat Fraud of American Politics.

you got it right perception 5, record home ownerships,record stockmarket closings, record low unemployment,tax revenues pouring in at an all time high..... **** on the press. these lefties are blinded by their own agendas.

[tbweb]

inches closer? Fred inches any slower this thing will be over! LOL

[realpatriot1]

the stock market is legalised gambling, it's all speculation and not real economics. When the market gets this high this fast it just means it's headed for a fall.

You may be the only ones who think that the housing market is healthy. Record home ownership is good, record foreclosures and stalled home buying/construction is not.

Natioanl unemployment is great but there are pockets of poverty(and I mean entire states and regions) that are in recession and need help they aren't receiving.

I'll give the administration more credit for the generally low unemployment than you blinded conservatives ever gave Clinton for the same.

However, the fundamentals that drive the long term health of the economy stink. The deficit is heading moderately down from the outer limits but is still in the stratosphere. The highest gas prices in history are a drain on economic activity and government revenue and consumer prices.

Are things terrible?No. Are they wonderful?No.

[mommajomma-2009]

well... when the stock market boomed in the mid 90's, youda thought clinton was the second coming..... but when bush trounces what clinton did, well the stock market is all ''yacht-makers'' etc etc. sca-rew you lefties. when freddy enters the race, hitler-y , and osamabama's campaigns will get the dying quivers.

Yeah, I suppose the 3,400+ deaths of our brave soldiers in Iraq over a misfocused war, the Katrina debacle, politicization of our judicial system, health care mismanagement, illegally spying on our own citizens, etc., are less important than selling more houses.

Those stupid Democrats with their agenda of cleaning government, finding a sane solution to the Iraq quagmire and restoring some semblance of balance in our judicial system. Why don't they celebrate all the new houses being sold these days instead?

*sniff sniff*

Ahh, the scent of blatent desperation in the air. Fred Thompson's the Republican "great white hope" of 2008, and he's not even officially running yet? Good luck with that. Sure is a strong statement about everyone already running - except MAYBE Ron Paul, he actually seems to have some brainpower.

Look to 2008 for increase in Democratic control of Senate and House, as well as Democratic president. This is only the start of a long, long period of Democrat government, so all you neo-cons, don't forget to pace yourselves on all the hateful comments so you don't tucker out too quickly.

[cdfoxtrot]

I'll file this under "Who Cares". Why can't all these non-candidates just make ONE announcement instead of boring us with these blow-by-blow press releases?

[tumbleweedin]

Sigh! So sad. Too little, too late. RON PAUL pretty much has got the American people pushing him way up in the polls. He is saying what people want to hear, and they are responding by telling the media that the rest are just that...the rest.
Congressman Ron Paul now has twice as many YouTube subscribers as all of the other Republican candidates for president combined. Here are the numbers:
Paul - 12,103
Romney - 2,059
Giuliani - 1,429
McCain - 1,291
Hunter - 413
Huckabee - 342
Tancredo - 211
Brownback - 111
Gilmore - 60
Thompson - 0
Total - 5,916

Congressman Paul also has twice as many YouTube subscribers as Barack Obama who has 5,988, and nearly four times as many as Hillary Clinton who has 3,517 subscribers

[fairandbal]

pakaal,
in case you didn't notice, ALL of the GOP candidates are 'the great WHITE hope'.

Sean Hannity: another robotic Republican party spinmeister. Having been at one time a bartender, he is quite experienced at pretending to be someone who cares, while he is just there to rake in the bucks. His mission now is to keep neo-cons drunk on his yelping lap dog wannabe Rush Limbaugh "conservatism". Being a blatant hypocrite is key to being a sucessful NEO-CON talk show host.

Bill Bennett's gambling and *** predilections were exposed; after demagogic Rush Limbaugh stands accused of being a multiple marriage, doctor-shopping, pill popping felon, after Bill O'Reilly's phone *** scandal .Michael Savage: While he's more entertaining than Limbaugh because apparent drug abuse in his earlier years,(I'm referring to the days when his name was Mike Weiner and he spent his free time hanging out with pen pal Allen Ginsberg, writing poetry and teaching botany at the University of Hawaii) . .after all this, and more, their loyal listeners still refuse to see the truth. So as long as there's another buck to squeeze out of this tired old routine, these pretenders will continue flapping their lips, and fooling the fools. Eventually, hopefully, they will eventually be seen for what they are. But until then, block your ears, and hold your nose

[menofoz]

They pollute the the airwaves day after day, night after night. Who are they? The phony NEO-CON talk show hosts. A neocon is basically a phony conservative who supports George Bush and the Iraq war, and who receives most of their "information" from mainstream news sources such as Fox News, and these robotic NEO-CON blabbermouths

[menofoz]

Not enough make up in Hollywood to clean up that ugly mess. Looks like the GOP poster for ill-gotten gain.

[cdfoxtrot]

Just wondering: Is Fred one of the "Hollywood Elites" we keep hearing about from the nutty right, or does the term not apply because he's a Republican??

[fairandbal]

This is funny, i was thinking just today of the term 'RoveBot'. as in, there are a lot of neo-con RoveBots on this blog today blindly repeating all of Rove's neo-con talking points.

Dear Republican party,

Fred Thompson is not the 2008 Messiah. Very sorry, but this guy doesn't really stand for much, just acts that way.

IT IS TIME TO DEFEAT FASCIST NAZI ISLAM ONCE AND FOR ALL%u2026

In 1786, Thomas Jefferson, then U.S. ambassador to France, and John Adams, then American Ambassador to Britain, met in London with Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja, the Dey%u2019s ambassador to Britain, in an attempt to negotiate a peace treaty based on Congress%u2019 vote of funding. To Congress, these two future presidents later reported the reasons for the Muslims%u2019 hostility towards America, a nation with which they had no previous contacts.

%u2026that it was founded on the Laws of their Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as Prisoners, and that every Musselman (Muslim) who should be slain in Battle was sure to go to Paradise.

Sound familiar?

Thomas Jefferson and James Madison defeated the fascist nazi muslims 200 years ago
And again 100 years ago with Theodore Roosevelt
Tunisia in 1881 by France and Libya in 1911 by Italy. By then most of the Islamic world was under Christian domination. With the Ottoman Empire defeated in WW1, secularist Turkish rebels in 1923 overthrew the last Islamic Caliphate,

Switching Sides: Inside The Enemy Camp

But then in 2000, well before his arrest, something happened which would make Abas question everything he believed in: a fatwa, a religious edict, was issued by Osama bin Laden.

"It should be understood that killing Americans and Jews anywhere found are the highest act of worship and the highest form of good deeds in the eyes of Allah," Simon quotes bin Laden.

Abas and his fellow commanders were ordered to read the fatwa to their men and make sure they carried it out. The others obeyed, but Abas refused. It was his moment of truth. He firmly believed that jihad was to be fought only on the battlefield in defense of Islam; he had always been taught that the killing of civilians had nothing to do with holy war and that it was forbidden.

The fatwa justified killing non-Muslim civilians everywhere.

Iran's secret plan for summer offensive to force US out of Iraq
Iran is secretly forging ties with al-Qaida elements and Sunni Arab militias in Iraq in preparation for a summer showdown with coalition forces intended to tip a wavering US Congress into voting for full military withdrawal, US officials say.

"Iran is fighting a proxy war in Iraq and it's a very dangerous course for them to be following. They are already committing daily acts of war against US and British forces," a senior US official in Baghdad warned. "They [Iran] are behind a lot of high-profile attacks meant to undermine US will and British will, such as the rocket attacks on Basra palace and the Green Zone [in Baghdad]. The attacks are directed by the Revolutionary Guard who are connected right to the top [of the Iranian government]."

Historical facts say that Islam has been imperialistic%u2014and would still like to be, if only for religious reasons. Many Muslim clerics, scholars, and activists, for example, would like to impose Islamic law around the world. Historical facts say that Islam, including Muhammad, launched their own Crusades against Christianity long before the European Crusades.

FASCIST NAZI ISLAM TO ENSLAVE NON MUSLIM WORLD

HAMAS MICKEY MOUSE SAYS
Islamic rule will benefit Christians and Jews
by Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook - May 14, 2007
The force behind Hamas TV%u2019s controversial Mickey Mouse clone said today that his children%u2019s television program will continue to promote worldwide Islamic supremacy, for everyone's benefit, including Christians and Jews.

In a long interview on Hamas TV, Hazim Al-Sha%u2019arawi, Deputy Director of Al-Aqsa TV and one of the creators of the Hamas children%u2019s TV show Tomorrow%u2019s Pioneers, said that using the program to promote Islamic rule over other religions is actually promoting %u201Cjustice, goodness and world love.%u201D

Al-Aqsa TV and the Palestinian Authority have been under fire since PMW reported last week that Tomorrow%u2019s Pioneers was using a character named Farfur, a knockoff of Disney%u2019s Mickey Mouse character, to convey messages about Islamic supremacy as well as hatred of Jews, Israel and the U.S. Despite public statements by PA Minister of Information Mustafa Barghouti that the show would be taken off the air until it could be reviewed and revised, a new episode of the program %u2013 featuring Al-Sha%u2019arawi as one of the hosts %u2013 ran Friday.

The best ticket I'm hoping for is Ron Paul and Fred Thompson and it does'nt matter to me in what order either.......I just don't want to hear.....CLICK!...Heil die Fuhrlein Hitlery!.....Or how should I say it......Hey'yall!, thee Furious'Lyin' Hit'liar'y!....with the band playing "Hail to the Thief" in the background of course.
