Well, it was bound to happen. The Democrats have unleashed their goons against Fred Thompson. And guess what they are highlighting?!
Yes, Fred Thompson played a racist on television back in the 1980's and . . . wait for it . . . Fred dated a lot when he was single -- during the Clinton administration. Ooohhhhhhh! How dare he. I mean, during that time, anybody who was anybody was putting cigars in places cigars aren't suppose to go while with White House interns!
Of course the most telling one is that the Democrats take serious issue with this statement by Fred:
"Mexican leaders apparently have an economic policy based on exporting their own citizens, while complaining about US immigration policies that are far less exclusionary than their own. The French jail perfectly nice people for politically incorrect comments, but scold us for holding terrorists at Guantanamo. Russia, though, takes the cake. Here is a government apparently run by ex-KGB agents who have no problem blackmailing whole countries by turning the crank on their oil pipelines. They're not doing anything shady, they say. They cant help it if their opponents are so notoriously accident-prone. Criticize these guys and you might accidentally drink a cup of tea laced with a few million dollars worth of deadly, and extremely rare, radioactive poison. Oppose the Russian leadership, and you could trip and fall off a tall building or stumble into the path of a bullet."
That the Democrats don't like that should tell you everything you wanted to know about why they shouldn't be in the White House.
TV Producer Stephen Cannel told the LA Times if the racism attack "is all they can find to say about him, then they've hit a new low." I guess it's official then -- the Dems have hit a new low.
Oooooh. You’re wrong for that!!!
Byrd is really a racist although I doubt he has felt any real animosity toward black people for many years. I don’t know about Lott, but while I have a very low opinion of Lott, no fair person could possibily condemn him for a careless remark and ignore Byrd’s constant slips. But the lust for power sweeps away any chance of fairness. Lott should never have been knocked out of his leadership role for what he did and for Bush to have collaborated in this act was unseemly. Now he is reaping the benefit. Lott is not going to do one thing to help Bush.
The latest?????? This is from March 23.
Still, you've a point is a point to be made, since Thompson's support has grown faster than anyone else since then.
Fred dated a lot when he was single -- during the Clinton administration.
Haha, I guess he should have done it Clinton style and dated while married, dating only young interns he hired or actresses he worked with.

Figures they couldn't distinguish between fiction and reality.
Hey how about Al Gore? Have you read any of his White House history. He wouldn’t allow any Black Secret Service on his protection detail. The was also a book article done on Al Gore as a younger man of privilege and money. When his family would stop at a road side restaurant they would leave the Black nanny in the family car alone. So what if Fred Thompson played a movie role as a racist. Gore and Byrd are racists.
The elder Gore was most certainly a racist. Junior is just a snob. I bet he rerspects no one not of his class.
I really liked his interview on Breitbart.com
He is talking about doing things differently. It is making people CRAZY that he isn’t declaring.
Actually, the role Thompson was playing was that of an unprincipled conman who was fleecing ignorant racists out of their ca$h by peddling racist lit and products. In the final episode of the series, the Rev. Pooley (or whatever his name was) admitted his only ideology was making a quick buck, and that racists were simply easy marks.
Heard Fred tell a guy, “GIVE ME THAT GUN!”, once that getts out, byby Freddie!
Hehehe. Sometimes their ignorance of FReepers works to our advantage. Every great once-in-a-while, they give me a laugh. This is one of those.
Shhhhhh be quiet, in all likelyhood the bad guys are lurking.....
True. ROFL!
Speaking of which, I might have to take a trip tonight over to the DUmp to see what they’re saying for more laughs.
The MSM is mostly keeping their powder dry on Giuliani until after he wins the nomination. I continue to hope that won’t happen, because if he does, we’ll be in trouble.
Bear in mind that this is only the BEGINNING...
Fred scares them more than any other candidate, and they are SALIVATING to run Hillary against Rudy or McCain...
By the time fall roles around, they’ll be calling him a Racist, bible-thumping Nazi Pedophile.
(OH WAIT! It didn’t take THAT long, did it?)
