Fred Thompson is a hypocrite. We would not have 12 to 20 million illegals if he would not have contributed to an "open borders" immigration when he was in the Senate. This is why Americans for Better Immigration gave him a grade of "C". America has had enough rhetoric from political hypocrites and corporate puppets. Stay on TV and stop "acting" like you're a conservative you fraud.

From 1975 to 1992 Thompson worked as a lobbyist in Washington, D.C. He represented such clients as Westinghouse, General Electric (the current corporate owner of the NBC Universal-NBC television network), and the Tennessee Savings and Loan League. Ron Paul does NOT accept money from asshole lobbyists...vote Ron Paul instead of another corrupt asshole like Fred.

Thompson was lobbying the U.S. Congress for deregulation of the Savings and Loan industry. His recommendations were incorporated into the Garn - St Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982,[8] which gave U.S. thrifts the freedom to invest in potentially more profitable, but riskier, ventures; eliminated interest-rate ceilings on new accounts; and allowed for additional government support of ailing S&Ls. This Act was a contributing factor to the Savings and Loan crisis of the late 1980s

phosgene2 is right, it is stupid to be having these debates this early. All it will do is get the American ppl so fed up with watching and hearing about them, it will totally turn them off to both parties. Let them go at each other and down the road when the debates should be strating, here comes Fred Thompson, with new ideas without having to baffle em with bullshit like oh ,say, Ron Paul

[rapsody]

lol, just because most people are stupid and uninformed and decide who they're voting for in the last week of an election, doesn't mean we all are. fred thompson can lick my taint, figuratively of course. his "new ideas" sound like the same b.s. were hearing already to me.

[spookynshadow]

ahemmm yeeeow, Fred hasn't been in congress for quite a few years. Like I said kiddies, Educate yourselves, watch and learn

[yeeeow]

True colors. Thompson is lazy. He participates little in congress, so why take the trouble to work up for a debate? LAZY!!!

What a coward. If Thompson's supposed to be a Real Man, all big and brave and whatfor, maybe he should grow a pair and go to the debate instead of getting to snipe at the other candidates while sitting next to Hannity.

[phosgene2]

coward? if he runs, he'll do debates. it's asinine to be having these debates a full 6-7 months before any meaningful vote is cast for a nomination and 18 months before the presidential election. why should he show up for 5 minutes of speaking time with a bunch of also-rans?

I didn't think Thompson's no-show in June cowardly, but I think the no-show on Sept 5th is -- especially when he is anouncing his candidacy the same night on The Tonight Show. Many people now feel he is a "coward." Shit or get off the pot.

May the Gods help us if that be so.
