The Tennessee Stud: Fred Thompson's Womanizing Ways

Well, that didn't take long. Former Tennessee senator Fred Thompson declared for president on Jay Leno this week and three days later, the press starts digging into ol' Fred's dirty laundry. And there's plenty to dig into, if today's London Daily Mail story is any indication. A few excerpts from the Mail's profile of big Fred: A Mail investigation raises serious questions about whether the affable Thompson is the committed pillar of 'family values' that conservatives take him to be.

His second wife, Jeri, is a blonde 24 years his junior. They wed in 2002 after Thompson was advised that if he wanted to become President he needed to quell a reputation as a womaniser that earned him the nickname the Tennessee Stud.

His conquests include the five times-married "Elizabeth Taylor of country", Lorrie Morgan, and three-time-divorcee Georgette Mosbacher, known as the "Divine Mrs M".

...

Moreover, when Thompson married his first wife, Sarah Lindsey, at Lawrenceburg Methodist Church in 1959, she was already two months pregnant with their first child.

....Oh....there's plenty more... Read the Mail story.

I think FReepers should all forget about Fred, and we should all unite behind the ONE TRUE CONSERVATIVE....DR. RON PAUL!!

.

If we all don't unite behind RON PAUL.....we will be saddled with one of these two!.....

Ron Paul supporters hit bottom, and start to dig.

Thompson was advised that if he wanted to become President he needed to quell a reputation as a womaniser

Yet it was that very thing that the libs like about Bill Clinton.

Paulbearers are only spamming with their lame candidate!

I see thing similiar, but this is different....

[LdSentinal]

With all due respect, you’re an idiot.

[rface]

at least you are respectful about it....

Let’s also not forget that:

1) Thompson has never had an affair. Each of his relationships were monogamous.
2) All of his ex-girlfriends *and* ex-wife are still on friendly terms with him.
3) All of his ex-girlfriends *and* ex-wife have said that they would campaign for him.

Ron Paul.....my second "Favorite Martian"

We all know it ain't gonna happen for him, but we still play out the game.

This tabloid obsession with personal lives, especially ancient history, is not worthy of freepers.

Who will do the best for taxes, spending, regulation?
Who will do the best for social issues, national security?

I’m undecided, as are most GOP voters. There is no front-runner right now except Mr. Undecided.

Give us something substantial to help us decide. Not the frenquierer.

[Spktyr]

No kidding.

Something to add to that - I *think* that his ex-wife and his current wife are actually also on friendly terms... How rare is that?

[rface]

but his "then girlfriend" was 2 months pregnant before he got around to marrying her....

Family Values???

MR. WALLACE: So, Congressman Paul, and I’d like you to take 30 seconds to answer this, you’re basically saying that we should take our marching orders from al Qaeda? If they want us off the Arabian Peninsula, we should leave? (Laughter.)

REP. PAUL: No! (Cheers, applause.) I’m saying — (laughter) — I’m saying we should take our marching orders from our Constitution. We should not go to war — (cheers, applause) — we should not go to war without a declaration. We should not go to war when it’s an aggressive war. This is an aggressive invasion. We’ve committed the invasion of this war, and it’s illegal under international law. That’s where I take my marching orders, not from any enemy. (Cheers, boos.)

After reading this enlightening piece, I am jumping on the RP “Paulbearer” bandwagon, FOR SURE!
