Thanks, pissant. Thompson's even more moderate than I thought.

Yeah, Willard probably wouldn’t bother with the ‘sense of the congress’. He’d just capitulate to the Dems and agree right away to everything they wanted.

How’s about you support your candidate and stop trying to trash Fred Thompson. I’m not about to spend all damn day going through the congressional record on a bunch of failed amendments to see why the hell Fred’s name is on that. Frankly, I couldn’t care less.

You had your thread on it. It is completely irrelevant to this thread. Go back into your little dreamworld where Hunter is winning everything and leave those of us here in reality alone to try and get a conservative elected POTUS.

This isn’t the right thread for a discussion like you are bringing up BECAUSE

This event in Hollywood, FL is not a campaign event. It is a fundraiser for the group. This is about the group that he is speaking to, not Fred. I suppose he might get into family principles or principles that this group supports. I think he committed to doing this quite some time ago. IIRC

Not everything is a part of your agenda.

I don’t care either. Fire away. I promise not to run and cry to the mods.

But the humor is really in your defense of Fred. The old ‘don’t bother me with his record’ routine. Nice.

Jim has warned you multiple times about things like this. I’m merely letting him know that you are doing it, yet again.

Now, you’re coming onto a completely unrelated thread, like a petulant little monkey throwing poop. Throw it elsewhere.

I pinged Jim to the thread last night. I don’t think Jim thinks that posting Fred’s real record on global warming is ‘trashing’ him.

I’m sure you do though, cause your panties are awfully bunched up.

You’ve bad mouthed Hunter for months and months and I never once ran to hide behind Jim or the mods. Man up.

BTW, nice tagline.

I don’t care what you did or didn’t do.

Yeah, I get a lot of compliments on the tagline. Glad you like it.

B4JC!!

See you at Cox’s inauguration! I’ll buy you a drink there! lol

I fail to see the "smoking gun" you're claiming here. By the best evidence the Senate had in 2002, man-made global warming was considered a real problem. Establishing an agency to analyze the issue and develop strategies to deal with the problem with as little disruption as possible to the economy, security, or other interests of the United States made sense. A funding level of appx. $500 million per year ($4.75B over 9 years) is not particularly extravagant in federal terms.

Of course, it has become painfully obvious since then that the "science" was flawed, with the exception of the Goracle cult who blind themselves to the facts.

In short, believing a problem existed in 2002 is excusable, but believing it today is not, because the evidence to the contrary has since accumulated.

None of this, of course, has any bearing on the fact that Thompson is performing a fundraiser, not even a campaign even, on the behalf of an organization.

Fewer conservatives, key word - conservatives, believed in the global warming fraud in 2000 than they do today.

I don’t think Jim thinks that posting Fred’s real record on global warming is ‘trashing’ him.

But posting part of it--in a very disingenuous and misleading way--is "pissing on him."

Not if she's raising money from U.S. citizens living overseas. There are quite a few of them. Giuliani has held quite a few foreign fundraisers, too, if I recall correctly.
