Believes in family values?

Fred Dalton Thompson (Check out his wife and kids that he adores).

You had me until that one. What about his first family??? Where are his children from the first marriage that ended??? He never speaks of them. Why not? The new family is better????

He still speaks with his first wife, she even campaigned for him during one of his Senate races. One of his older daughters died tragically in 2002 and as far as I know he does NOT speak about her death.

When Fred did his event in Washington the end of January, Jeri and their kids were there, and Daniel and grandchildren [from the first marriage]. Most of his family was there when he had the Lawrenceberg event including children from the first marriage. Tony from the first marriage did a newspaper interview supportive of his father a few months ago. Sarah, the first wife has given interviews that support Fred and has said she is willing to campaign for him. Fred speaks of the children from the first marriage often on the campaign trail, says his children are a blessing both from his first family and his second. He has spoken of Betsey in Lawrenceberg and an event in Texas [might have been San Antonio]. Betsey lived in Texas for a few years. He often speaks of her with love, and his grandchildren which would be from his first marriage. His grandchildren were there at the Lawrenceberg event [from the first marriage of course].

You obviously don’t support Fred, that is fine but your facts are completely wrong.
