Fred Thompson on Harry Reid’s attacks on Rush Limbaugh
Congressional Democrats are trying to divert attention from insulting our military leader in Iraq and pandering to the loony left by attacking Rush Limbaugh. He is one of the strongest supporters of our troops, yet Democrats claim he is not being strong enough. I wonder who General Petraeus and his troops think is most supportive?
I wonder if you’ve seen the one about the Romney Vapid Response Team.
LOL! I’m still laughing at your other post. :)
Rush Limbaugh has been a commentator on contemporary conservative thought for over 19 years. He has the largest (by far) radio audience of any talk-radio program. He is a friend of Justice Clarence Thomas.
Do you believe it is inadmissible for politicians, who claim to be conservative, to come to the assistance of such a well-known and respected individual when attacked by the left? I just want to get your purpose for posting your comments.
Keep in mind, by your logic, should Romney, Hunter, whomever, become President, it would be wrong for anyone on the right to come to his support when attacked by the left. Is that what you're angling for?
Haven’t we been dealing with them on the Romney thread?
It IS a big deal, and your guy was asleep at the wheel.
Again
Tough to rationalize that.
Yay Fred!
You’ve attacked Fred on every issue and everthing! LOL
You attacked his integrity, his veracity, his conservatism and his adherence to federalism. You attack his family, his wife and his children with impunity. Noiw you attack Fred for defending Rush. This serves no good purpose.
Not for nothing but you sound like a low life gutter trash.
Instead of constantly attacking a good conservative like Fred, why not post threads that support your candidate. Lord knows he can use the help.
I'll excuse the CEO because being a media mogul, he's probably as liberal as they come.....and the letter was like a hairball he had to cough up. I think we got the best we could expect from him, but I expected much more from Romney. What I got was a letdown of massive proportions.
But then, I've been a Fred supporter from the beginning, he's a man's man and isn't afraid to show it. I did not peg him wrong.
Nor did I peg Romney wrong.

I thought they went by the Romney Tepid Response Team...but I may be wrong. So many teams, so many responses.
Upset because your candidate not only didn't have the testicular fortitude to back Rush and denounce the loony left, but also didn't have the foresight to realize the 20 million or so Rush fans would hear about it on his show? Fred did the right thing backing Rush. AND he would have done it whether Rush mentioned it or not.
I expect more attacks forth coming from his minions, but this too shall pass...
“Is this what Mitt really said,if so it’s absolutely unacceptable in this mans book. What a cowardly politically correct statement from a man who claims to be a real leader.”
Yes, Mitt was not supportive. However, after he found out the facts, he had his people call Rush. They told Rush that Mitt would make a “corrective/supportive” statement “if he is asked about it”. Well, guess he hasn’t been asked! If and when he is asked it will be just too little and too late in my book. GO FRED! The one who will REALLY stand up to the socilist DEMS!
That's because he is a loser, and backing one at the same time.
To paraphrase Forrest Gump:
“Some times there’s just not enough keyboards...”
Perhaps Willard will throw his spokesman under the bus when he flip flops. He’s going to have to fix this soon.
The suspense is delicious!
Tepid and Vepid, both fit...
As soon as you're done sucking farts out of subway seats, you might want to give some hard thought to the idea that Hunter will have a lot of critical work to do as a Cabinet Member in the Thompson Administration.
I think Fred is the front runner for the “Rush endorsement” anyway....just a hunch.
Regardless, way to go Fred! You have re-affirmed my belief in you.
Thought I heard that Mitt Boy made his statement about this Rush issue on the Huffington Post.
Is that true?
