A definite rebuttal of the whining seen around the blog-o-sphere and even here on FR about Fred’s “lack of substance”. Bookmarking this for the next time a newly-registered individual decides to trot out the “Fred hasn’t told me what he’s about yet” line.

It’s obvious why conservatives see something to like in Thompson. He has offered clear, conservative ideas on fixing Social Security, policing immigration, and expanding the military. We encourage the other candidates to follow his lead.

Nice.

build a “million-member” ground force that would increase the sizes of the Army and Marine Corps to 775,000 and 225,000, respectively.

What is the sound of a million men marching?

Fred Thompson is all substance.

He is not interested in fluff...

I watched FRed's CSpan presentation of his Social Security fix. I was thoroughly impressed.

I agree that Fred has lately been sounding like the man we ought to have in the White House. It remains to be seen if that will help him win primaries and delegate support.

“What is the sound of a million men marching?”

The sound of hope for America. I like it.

It would also mean there would be a million men doing something honorable instead of sitting on their behinds or joining anti-war protests to find ways to badmouth their own country.

Fred is the quiet, substantive candidate. I think he will be very attractive to the voters, if not to the people who bloviate about politics for a living.
