Someone needs to call Sean and ask him about that.

Anyone been to Townhall lately after Senator Thompson has posted his weekly column and read the comments?
I've seen comments questioning his morals, his patriotism and his political will.
And every comment in that vein ends with a "RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT".
It's almost like DU has sent people to Townhall just to instigate.

Did you see the link a positive or negative towards Thompson? Pro lobby or anti lobby?

In other words, did you think the link was going to help bring the facts surrounding Thompson to the table, or just add fuel to a anti-lobbyist fire built by the DNC?

Let me jump in here and ask what you mean by “top linking.” I’m not familiar with that term.

My link wasn’t on lobbying. It was on campaign finance reform.

Aha. So, you top-linked to an article dated Feb. 23, 1997? You call that “more information”? I call it “moot.”

Please stop with the games.

The piece you linked was another attack piece on Thompson from 1997....ten years ago.

What do you think campaign finance reform is aimed at? What do you think lobby reform is aimed at? Both are aimed at money in politics and in particular, BIG money or corporate/institutional money.

Are you as naive as you are trying to appear? Or exactly what I am accusing you of being?

Well, I went back and tried to check the links that you provided in your top link. They were so long, I just searched each one for mention of Fred Thompson. He wasn’t mentioned in any of them—unless my search function isn’t working. So...how is this top link providing more information about Thompson?

YOU mention Thompson once under the last link. Can you clarify what it is that we are supposed to learn form your top link?

If you can’t clarify, then I can only assume that someone else fed you the information to post here.

I’ll be happy to apologize if you can show me where I’m wrong.

Sounds like he sucked as a lobbyist to me!

Did very little of it apparently.

Thanks for keeping the attention on it though!

A bump doesn’t mean much if it doesn’t bring anyone to the thread. Besides, everyone who came to it has found it irrelevant—except you.
