Thompson denies 'pro-choice' lobbying
Thompson spokesman Mark Corallo adamantly denied that Thompson worked for the family-planning group. "Fred Thompson did not lobby for this group, period," he said in an e-mail.In a telephone interview, he added: "There's no documents to prove it, there's no billing records, and Thompson says he has no recollection of it, says it didn't happen."
In a separate interview, John Sununu, the White House official whom Thompson was hired to contact, said he had no memory of any lobbying and doubted it took place.
Seems pretty unequivocal, unless these people aren't telling the truth.
I like the guy (Thompson). I am skeptical of his credentials, especially when it it comes to lobbying...
Fred has that most wonderful quality on Earth, for a Republican politician:
Teflon!
He is truly, the only potential candidate on either side of the aisle, this poster can imagine, without any difficulty, repeating that true, great GOP leader’s single most powerful example of smooth, understated political discourse:
“There you go again...”
I like Fred. A lot.
The more nervous democrats act about him, the more I like him. :)
And, of course, it was the LATimes that published the story, which ought to tell you how reliable it is.
Even these liars dont pretend that Thompson actually worked for this pro-abort outfit. They claim that he talked with one of the lawyers who did. And we only have their word on it.
All those facts are going to give the romey & rudy bots headaches.
You should be ashamed that you are using an obviously cooked up story from a ridiculously unreliable source with zero evidence to smear a candidate and his supporters. You should be ashamed to be as disingenuous as to pretend that you would simply accept the story as fact if the words ‘Duncan Hunter’ replaced ‘Fred Thompson’.
You have even gone so far as to compare the 61% majority of FReepers that are supporting Fred Thompson to RudyBots in an earlier thread.
That’s a disgrace and your behavior is shameful and dishonest. In short, you should be ashamed of yourself.
LMAO, first time I’ve ever been called “less intellectually gifted”. When you resort to personal attacks, you’re grasping. My post was HARDLY disparaging ;)
Though we are some what expert at the art of detecting bullsh*t, seein’ as we done be surrounded by it all the time...
Oh the horror. Being a lobbyist is no different than being a lawyer in private practice.
The thing is it's nothing if true because as 10/10/1991 he's already hired for something else (mean he was looking before that mean he had no love of the job)....(hell I've done tel-com/computer work for some super hard core left wing wacko...a professional doesn't not ask a customers politics, it would be unethical to refuse a customer with a legit need for the serviced I provide on political grounds)
But if false and the left is manufacturing doc again... this sound like another lib half ass forgery to smear
I hope this story comes back to bite MSM, but the way it has been written about by multiple authors it won't be another Memogate.
He’s a LOBBYIST!
OMG!
So is everyone else in DC, even if they hold office...
Thanks for the info, and I’ll check out the link.
I’d like to get as much info on this as possible.
What I want is the truth, so I know which VICE PRESIDENT to support for Duncan Hunter. :)
Won’t be the last, I’m sure. Particularly if you continue down the route of intellectual dishonesty. Such dishonesty is a hindrance to intellectual growth. So, even if you aren’t currently ‘less gifted’ intellectually, if you continue down the path you’ve currently chosen, you soon will be.
Superman? Batman? How about Keyser Sose?
Hunter/Sose 08!
Hmmm... another Duncan Hunter fan that keeps passing the big lie that Thompson has not refuted this.
I don’t dislike the guy. At all. I’m skeptical.
The greatest trick that the devil ever pulled was getting Hunter to poll at 2% instead of .5%
"The greatest trick that the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that Duncan Hunter existed."
