I have heard a former speechwriter of Thompson’s saying that calling Fred lazy is garbage. He said that often Fred stayed in the office long past the time everyone else went home.
I also heard that a former aide of Thompson’s said she quit because she couldn’t keep up with his work pace.
A man who puts himself through college and law school while raising a young family is not a lazy man.

Kinda like the MSM.

i think they should set a maximum limit on the number of laws (the total number; not how many new ones they can add). then, if congress wants to add a new one, they have to eliminate an old one. the maxlimit should be set at about half of what we have now. Excellent ideas.

Excellent post.
p.s. Glad I checked out your homepage!

I think you may be right about that...Jake is a very handsome guy (a haircut makes all the difference in the world as to looks!), and little Sonny is adorable!

Actually, I kinda like them thinking he's lazy. It keeps them off guard. After the dust settles, we can ask them how it feels to get whupped by a lazy man.

Oh, that’s absurd........
No problem there... don’t believe the MSM, you’ll sleep better.
To: Shortstop7
It’s not the MSM, it’s people they quote, like David Keene. Sleeping better is nice, but I’ve kinda always wanted to know what was going on.
