Two posts -- two wrong statements. Watch it__ three strikes and you're out!

Like heck they are. They are both 100% accurate. The video that is posted is a fraud, and the Thompson campaign has denied it. Continue the lies if you wish, but the truth backs me up. Typical fairtax BS.

Denied, disowned, edited (heavily) proven fraud (just like the unfair tax itself)

and the delusion that the FT will have any effect on the next election is the biggest laugh of all.

I'm in favor of the FairTax, but I have to agree. The video with Fred Thompson was pretty embarrassing, as is AFT's continued citation of it as "proof" that Fred Thompson is in favor of the FairTax.

I will say that the FairTax probably did have something to do with the strong showings by Huckabee and Tancredo, as, from what I hear, the FairTax people had a strong presence at Ames. I don't think the FairTax cost Romney any votes, and FairTax opponents (Romney, Brownback, Giuliani) did receive more votes in aggregate than did FairTax proponents (Huckabee, Tancredo, Hunter, Tommy Thompson). McCain and Fred Thompson are ambiguous on the issue, and Paul doesn't really fit, since he's opposed to nearly all federal taxation.
