Fred Thompson - Iraq

[hairhorn]

lol.. did he say there were good reasons for the Iraq war? what planet is he on?

[hyperrreal]

Fred Thompson makes Bush look competent in comparison. He obviously doesn't know what he's talking about so he's stuck at making broad generalizations about policy and dragging out the same old clinches.

That may have worked back in 2005, Fred, but it's not going to work now. Americans want our troops out of Iraq now. (see pollingreport dot com).

[banshee17067]

how about you all drop what your doing. Follow the constitution and remove the enemy from power may be foriegn may be domestic who cares the people should rise up and claim what is there's make the government for the people and by the people again.

[FabledCalamity]

Fred Thompson for president!!!

Fred Thompson for president!!!

Fred Thompson for president!!!

Fred Thompson for president!!!

Fred Thompson for president!!!

Fred Thompson for president!!!

[Someone132435]

The real fight for presidency is between Fred and Giuliani... for you idiot liberals, obama and hilary have no chance in the race

[chunt7]

Ditto. Code Pink and move on you lib idiot!

[ScottfromTexas]

Neither Giuliani or Fred have a chance except in the minds of the liberal media. They love approval-seeking candidates because they get to control them. I see Ron Paul stickers all over the place, but never one Giuliani or Thompson.

[ScottfromTexas]

Just what we need - another trans-nationalist like Bush exploiting emotions rather than using reason to fulfill the goals of the elite. A lot of people held their noses to vote for Bush. We won't be doing it again for another Bush neocon traitor. Ron Paul or nothing!

[conservativegrunt]

Scott, You're right to state that a lot of people, conservatives in particular, have had enough of voting for the lesser of two evils. Thompson supporters need to realize that FDT is not the conservative they think him to be. I do not support Ron Paul - for me - it's Duncan Hunter or nothing. The GOP needs to realize that FDT doesn't have the support he needs to win.

[Rickdeckard2020]

Lying to the american people requires acting skill, thats why you need Fred in the White House. You need more unprovoked pre-emptive wars for Haliburton's pockets, if the bullshit used to justify war is to obviously fake we can have a re-write and fabricate a brand new reason, more breaks for Insurance industry, senior citizens arent paying enough for medecine, more tax cuts for billionaires,

vote Fred Thompson!!!

[ScottfromTexas]

LOL! Nice sarcasm, Rick.

[pothago]

what a bullshitter he is not taking a stance on issues he is dancing around the issues. Charm, i c none. 2:38  is funny lol

[MooseOfReason]

Fred, Fred, Fred...

If there's no political progress in Iraq, we should leave. Is that why he didn't say anything about political progress?

[Seekster]

Yesterday it was no military progress but now its no political progress. Face it the terrorists are on the run, their former Sunni and Shitte militia allies have turned on Al Qaeda and forced them to stay on the move. I agree that the Iraqi National government makes our Congress look competent but on a local level there is political progress. This isnt going to be easy but its mostly up to the Iraqis that this point.

[ScottfromTexas]

On the move? They weren't even there before the Bush invasion. So you are saying we aren't even where we were when Bush screwed things up?

[Seekster]

Vote Fred Thompson 2008 and 2012!!!

[blueangelarts]

Fred Thompson is next USA president!

Fred Thompson is CFR

RON PAUL 2008. A TRUE CONSERVATIVE, A REAL REPUBLICAN.

[jab2ur]

"we did what we did when we did it" .... what does that even mean??!

[Seekster]

We did what we did when we did it means we did what we did when we did it. Next you'll ask me to explain what "is" is.

[conservativegrunt]

Duncan Hunter for President 2008. Support a genuine conservative. Duncan Hunter is actively campaigning on a platform of strong national defense, enforceable borders, and core conservative values.

Visit gohunter08 dot com.

[fundguy]

He's good (DH), but he's got no shot.

[conservativegrunt]

Freddie "the fraud" Thompson, who has no problem endorsing the trampling of the first amendment via McCain-Feingold-Thompson and bringing in foreigners to displace American workers via his support of Spencer Abraham's H1B visa policies is no good at all. FDT has no shot.

[Raxr985]

Good GOOOOOD, Fred Thompson is painfully boring. Just listening to that voice....ugh. It doesn't matter though. There's absolutely zero chance a pro-Iraq war candidate is going to come even close to winning the election. I HATE the mainstream Democratic candidates, but they could spend the rest of the year going around the country kicking babies and still beat a pro-war Republican easily. Thompson, Giuliani, Romney...never going to happen.

[Seekster]

Um Hillary will burn herself out come Summer 08 at the latest, Obama doesnt have the experience to be anything but a vice presidential candidate, Mike Gravel is funny...so who does that leave for the Dems?

[MooseOfReason]

Kucinich?

[fundguy]

Hah! As if he could win...

[awesomeseghute]

go Freddy! I dont care what anyone says. theres no bullshit when it comes to you, a great leader. just a reminder, a president is a leader, someone who knows it is impossible to please everyone but still does whats best. anyone who tries to please everyone cannot be strong enought to make decisions.

[snerkable]

If you want a strong leader, Ron Paul is your man. That man speaks courageously and with immense integrity. He's always articulated himself in a consistent manner and who has NEVER flip-flopped. A leader is someone who takes charge in the face of danger, Ron Paul will take charge, unlike Fred Thompson, who history tells us is unsure of himself and flip-flops.

[spurcowboy]

Quit watching CNN!! You must be from Austin...Freaking Hippie!

[baitkenh]

I would never vote for anyone who molested children. And I would never vote for Fred Thompson either. Its time to put "Mark Foley" politics to rest. Us conservatives need to send creepy uncle Thompson back to his Amnesty-loving Hollywood home, before he turns our great nation into California.

[goat909295]

FRED THOMPSON IS A LOBBYIST, which means he would screw his grandmother out of her rocking chair. He is a hog at the trough of the American system, taking corporate money and bribing politicians who then vote favors for the corporation.

How'dja like to be President, Fred, and really have access to money and power?

(Slobber, slobber) "OINK."

[Seekster]

And you base this baseless conjecture on...what?

[TheShield04]

any solution that does not involve the demographic complexities in Iraq is totally ignorant. IRAQ IS FAKE, IT IS A UNION OF THREE PEOPLE. ONLY A THREE STATE SOLUTION CAN WORK...FRED'S VAGUENESS SHOWS HIS IGNORANCE, HE OFFERS NOTHING NEW ON THIS.

[Seekster]

If Iraq's national unity is that weak and they do split then thats on them. Whatever becomes of Iraq our major role in that country will be all but over by 2009 when Fred Thompson takes office. We will still be there on the sidelines as we are still in Japan and Germany but its up to Iraq to run its own country, we have given them almost half a decade, if they really want a Democratic Country then that should be enough.

[TheShield04]

no we haven't, we the West (Britain, and US) made Iraq. And you know that we did. I don't believe you are that ignorant of history. Please review our intervention over there and start annalyzing who the Iraqi people are. We really need to start having respect for the people we use or else more terror will happen to wake us up...

[Seekster]

As a History buff Im a big fan of analyzing the past to understand the present and anticipate the future. However the Iraq of the past may not be the Iraq of the present (just as if the United States were the same country it was during WWII, the Democratic Party would have probably been scorned out of existence by now). It is up to the Iraqi people to determine their future. Do they want Democracy or do they want what the terrorists are offering them.

[wrestlecat61]

you people are hilarious... I wont say any thing more but will blow away all of the other candidates. PERIOD, bet ya

[misfitt13888]

Ron Paul

[davideley]

The wrath of History is upon us. It's been a long time since America defended Good. We seem not to understand that Evil often bears the semblance of Good. "For Greater Germany, for Greater America." Same station, different time.

Ron Paul R3v0_|ution

[laughingtiger123]

Ron Paul isn't listening to what radical muslims are telling us....they want us dead because we don't believe in their God in their specifically prescribed manner. This is very troubling. It's one of a very few problems I have with Ron Paul. You have to listen to what killers are actually saying, over and over again to us. Peace.

[misfitt13888]

lol. you want the whole country scared. if they hated us for our female freedoms... then all the african tribes with their tits hanging out would be dust

[kebon]

this is bla bla bla par excellence

VOTE RON PAUL!

[goat909295]

LOBBYIST FRED THOMPSON HAS MADE A LOT OF MONEY out of bribing Congressmen on behalf of big corporations. Like a pig, he has been feeding at the trough of our American system, shoving aside the interests of the middle class.

Wha'dya say about running for Prez, Fred?

"Oink, oink."

[baitkenh]

Fred Thompson knows nothing about the military, he knows nothing about immigration, yet he presents himself as having solutions to those problems. In fact, he voted many times to worsen the immigration situation. Some conservative. Mitt Romney is the only top-tier candidate I can trust these days.

[wrestlecat61]

Wow ken, I see you have moved from Guliani to mitt romney, where do your loyalties lie. As far as immigration, we are the only super power in the world that doe not have direct control over our boarders. We rely too much on our natural barriers. I think Fred thompson has the great and most consistant voting record of all the republican and democratic presidential hopefuls. Again GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT

[baitkenh]

So typical of WrestleCat61 to deflect the real issues. Are you aware the Fred Thompson voted for amnesty numerous times in the Senate, including amnesty for over 1 million Cubans in 1997? I'm absolutely outraged that Fred Thompson gave amnesty to those illegal immigrants, especially since we live in the era of the suitcase bomb. And now you want slander a true conservative like Mitt Romney?? Go back to Hollywood; you and Thompson both.

[wrestlecat61]

Also, If anyone does listen to your inane banter, it is because they are simpltons and mentally starved. I could care less who you get to agree with your views.

[baitkenh]

Don't resort to insults just because you can't make a point. I know you read the news, but sometimes you need to back up your assertions with facts. I'm not a huge Thompson fan, but YOU make him sound worse with your fanatical rantings. The way you try to smear Romney, who incidentally is my candidate of choice, sickens me. Do you even care about issues? Or is politics just some kind of pop-culture fodder for your amusement?

[conservativegrunt]

Wow, wrestlekitty. The reason we don't have control over our borders is because Bush and Thompson are neocon globalists that pander to corporate America. The only thing consistent about Thompson's voting record is that he provided corporate America with immigrants for cheap labor while in the Senate. See Conservatives Against Fred dot com. The only men with consistent conservative voting records are Duncan Hunter, Tom Tancredo and Ron Paul.

[wrestlecat61]

you guys are freaking hilarious. First off, if anyone reads my comments from ealier I never slandered anyone baitkenh. How am I deflecting the true issues. I refuse to argue with you guys, I agree with alof of what conservativegrunt has to say except that its funny that he thinks our lack of border control is due to globalist mentality. That is a real issue Queer bait.

[baitkenh]

By the way, quit spamming with your random, caustic, factless rhetoric.

[gchuggins]

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

[oldschoolredneck]

Fred Thompson in 2008!!

Giuliani -- From crime family, married his cousin, divorced 3 times!

McCain -- For endless war against poorly defined enemy "Terrorism"!

Romney -- Flip-Flopper/Mormon, thinks HE will be a God with many spirit wives!

Thompon-ANother actor with an ego.

[twochordcool]

Uncleredneck, did you ALSO tell the young man that Reagan and Bush the first were OK with Saddam at the time he was doing these things? That they did not give a RAT'S ASS when Saddam was doing these things?

[gltskline]

He is a member of the CFR (Council on Foreign Relations). They are the elite group that are planning the world's future, including America's. The CFR is planning a one world government for us. Thompson is a member of this organization. Research the North American Union and the European Union. Orwell must have been a prophet when he wrote "1984".

[angrydragon]

Some people complained about Ron Paul saying uhh too much.

[catobear1704]

Why would anyone even consider voting for this guy? He readily admits that Iraq was, in so many words, a good idea!? He can't be serious. I'm tired of going to war with other countries for stupid things (or for oil) so I will not be voting for this Imperialist. I am voting for Dr. Ron Paul.

[westphalianprinz]

I am not voting for anyone on the right for any reason, ever.

[catobear1704]

West: By "right", do you mean the Reps? If so, why not? Are you a Libertarian?

[westphalianprinz]

Actually no. I don't support Libertarians either. They are better on social issues, but that's just one component of democracy. Go to my channel to see where I fit in the spectrum.

[Unklebillybob]

cat - You were only 8 years old when Desert Storm began. Do you know anything about the conflict we had with Iraq? Do you understand that we, Americans, can't just stick our heads in the sand and pretend that we're OK because we have two oceans to seperate us from the entire world? The war with Saddam was not a war with Iraq.

[catobear1704]

Unk: I didn't understand DS when I was 8, but I am older now and I have read up on the incident. I believe that, according to Bush 41, DS was initiated for the defense of Kuwait. Sounds real "moral", but that's just rubbish--we really went for oil. If you disagree, and you believe we went there for good reasons, what do you propose further? Should we scavenge the globe for more dictators and madmen, deposing them as we like, and forcing them to live as we? Sounds expensive and bloody. No thanks.

[Unklebillybob]

cat - Problem...........What oil? How many US Oil companies have taken over Kuwait's oil fields? As for Saddam, he had been a threat to the entire world. Take a look at his history with violence to the world, his neighbors, his own people and even people in his inner circle. Now, take a look at how he was still seeking ways and means of aquiring additional WMD. Here is a simple one...If you have the time look-up The Halabja poison gas attack from March 15-March 19, 1988

[Unklebillybob]

cat - (cont) Also, look at the Al-Anfal Campaign in 1988. This man was not simply a bad man, he committed mass genocide with his WMDs of...well, you will find out when you review the literature.

Thanks for being polite

[pippintookrotk]

Wow. I think we have our next president.

[llad]

Like wow man ... I don't have a plan B, but, uh, its bad over there and we can't just up and leave ... cause ... uhh ... our allies might think were a bunch of sissies.

If he runs on that policy, a Democrat in the White House is assured.

[westphalianprinz]

Of the Confederate States of America.

[myfagan]

fred thompson kicks ass and im voting for him. the guy is great.

[westphalianprinz]

He kicks working people's asses. He kisses rich people's asses. That's what conservatism is, and all this right-wing defender of privilege is about.

[paul0was0here]

Really man, I'd like to see you get up there and give a speech without saying any uhhs. Everybody does it.

[zz6gkm]

The Great Communicator?

Hi, uuuhhh... my uh.. name is Fred uuuuhhh... Thompson and I uuuuhhhh... I uh, shucks, uh... I'll uuuh... run for president I uh, guess.

This guy is the next coming of Ronald Reagan? Give me a break.

[saxman727]

Notice how he's not reading from a scripted speech. If that were the case, I'm sure you wouldn't hear all the uuuhhs. It's natural speak. I don't think it matters one bit.

[westphalianprinz]

Sadly, he believes all of this bullshit. He talks like racist cracker.

[HEYPHILLIP]

You a dumb ass he's speaking from the heart and not from a fucking teleprompter.

[westphalianprinz]

That just means he believes in exploitation of people who work for a living. If you work for wages, don't vote for people who will vote not to raise your wages, who won't allow you to form a union so you can get better wages and benefits, and who will make sure that you wind up paying higher taxes, because they hate progressive income taxation. If you want to live like the poor people in a Charles Dickens novel, vote for these clowns.

[baitkenh]

In the 1980's he volunteered for a pro-abortion activist group. When approached for comment, he affirmed working with them, but denied supporting abortion. Maybe he just had a change of heart. Maybe, like most candidates, he's only acting conservative to get votes.
