Apparently, Fred Thompson believes that the current batch of GOP Presidential wannabees have not sufficiently pandered to the right wing. In an AP article, assumes the position for the Dobson crowd, by saying that Roe v. Wade should be overturned as "bad law and bad medical science." (I assume he knows this because he played a doctor at some point).

Clearly, his role as a Naval officer (Hunt for Red October) helped him conclude that

"Wars are full of mistakes. You rectify things. I think we're doing that now," he said. "Why would we not take any chance, even though there's certainly no guarantees, to not be run out of that place? I mean, we've got to take that opportunity and give it a chance to work."

But my favorite was his belief that Scooter Libby should be pardoned now. After those years on "Law and Order" you'd think he would be tougher on criminals, right?

Fred Thompson is an unmarried man of a certain age will Chris Matthews be referring to him as "virginal" as he did with Fitzgerald?

The secret service announced they could not let Shrub sleep overnight in Columbia because of the drug traffic
Who was being protected from whom

America will crumble unless the next president comes from the ranks of the Sarcastic Idiocy Forum.

I am floored everytime I read that anyone would WANT to associate with the "right wing".


Someone should tell them how embarassing they are so they know to STFU.

Personally I would have voted for Lenny. He was much funnier.

This guy is pathetic. He said he believes the Repig Party needs "star power" and none of the current candidates have it.

While he may be right about the star thing...he certainly is just one more blabbering warmongering big mouth Republican. He is antigay, anti-choice, pro-more-war, bigger war and lots of dead soldiers. He is everything that Bush is, except he actually CAN memorize lines.

YUCK

In the words of Winnie the Pooh, this Republican campaign is getting curiouser and curiouser.

So now we have Gingrich sitting on the side lines like a vulture, waiting to jump in the ring and now Fred Thompson and Hagel are waiting in line to make an announcement. Geez....how many more right wing nuts are going to join in?

Personally, I'd like to see Mann Coulter run for President. She may be abrasive, but I think the chances are good that someone will shoot her, which would put us all out of our misery, eh?

Unfortunately the wild west does exist just not in Washington D.C. but here in the SW where people actually SHOOT losers.

This is the WEIRDEST collection of creeps I've ever seen.

Freddy the Actor needs better scripts. Maybe if he runs, he can hire the writers from Family Guy. They can put him in diapers and his best friend could be his talking dog. At least he'd finally have some entertainment value.
