Who cares? FRED makes the decisions, and Fred is well known for being extremely pro-Israel, and anti-Islamofascist.

The man is not in a policy advisor role. Get a grip.

Fred Thompson names anti-Israel ex-senator as campaign manager

(Israel Today)

It also appears that many of you may not have read Post 73.

This is not meant to be confrontational. It is strickly for your information. Unfortunately, we are so desperate for a candadate, that we turn the other way so that we don't see the negatives.

Just don't say you didn't know.

I don’t need your condescension. I have read every article pertaining to Fred that has been posted on this website, plus others. You are the one who is ignorant.

Abraham IS NOT campaign manager. I don’t care what you post, he is not and never has been Fred’s campaign manager. And even if he was, campaign managers MANAGE THE CAMPAIGN. Period.

Republican presidential candidate Fred Thompson is the most supportive of Israel
InfoIsrael.net ^ | June 11, 2007 | Anthony David Marks and Hannah Amit

Republican presidential candidate Fred Thompson is the most supportive of Israel out of a dozen or so politicians seeking to win the US presidential seat. The former actor, who has also served as a US senator, claims Israel has been too restrained in its responses to Palestinian terrorism.

“Israel is at war,” Thompson opined in a column for the conservative website Townhall.com. And the Jewish State has gone to “incredible lengths to stop the war against them without harming Palestinian non-combatants.”

Thompson is also recorded as supporting an Israeli military strike against Iran, should international boycotts and diplomacy fail to detour the Islamic Republic from its nuclear arms race.

Thompson is expected to make his first visit to Israel in the near future where he will meet with Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni and other senior officials.

Liberal political elements in Israel fear Thompson is too far-right in his opinions and may do eventual harm to Israel. There are many in Israel, however, who would welcome Thompson and his hard-line policy against terror onboard the US leadership team. (Sources: Israel Today/IHC)

I’m more disturbed that Barack Hussein Obama got ONE round of applause from VFW guys. That bastard Obama shouldn’t get the time of day from a veteran.

That's the truth.

I don’t mean to insult anyone, but...

That would be good to know - but I’ve noticed that the pro-liberal media and the pro-republican candidate Freepers use the same methods.

I just want the truth.

Personally, I think Fred Thompson is the smartest one of the bunch. It really is ridiculous how long the campaign has become. It’s just a way to keep has-been politicians employed for an extra year.

All the big names thumbed their nose at the Ames Straw Poll. I don't think it’s all that relevant this time around.

Thompson got razed for wearing expensive Gucci loafers to the Iowa State Fair....

Must be the remnant of the Hollyweird culture that he imbibed while in showbiz. Should have worn Allen-Edmonds - shoemaker of Presidents.

I lived in Iowa from 1974 to 2001: People wear Gucci footwear in Iowa, believe it or not. Most of the folks in Iowa ARE NOT farmers or working in agribusiness. Des Moines, where the Iowa State Fair is held, is the largest insurance center in the United States, with more home offices than any other city in the nation, so it’s not a exactly a “hayseed” burg.

“Who cares? FRED makes the decisions”

That’s the problem... He seems to be better at NOT making decisions.

He’s made the decision. And he gets to decide when he wants to announce it.

Those people who keep harping on this are either stupid or disengenuous. It is quite obvious that he his going to run. He wouldn’t do the things he’s doing if he wasn’t. Nobody has the right to demand that he follow their timetable.
