Fred Thompson the subject of a new book to be released in Aug/Sept tying his entrance into the 2008 Presidential race to the defeat of the Republican Party in 2008. Book will claim Thompson's entrance and later withdrawal, reminiscent of Ross Perot with delegates diverted from more electable candidates.
FRED THOMPSON is the best person to lead this country. He is a true conservative and has been his entire life. All one has to do is check his record to see this.
During my time in the Army as an Intelligence Analyst, I personally served under both Presidents Carter and Reagan. Without argument, President Reagan was the best commander-in-chief a military person could ever have served under. Fred Thompson possesses the same qualities and vision as President Reagan in that he is strong on national defense and sees a dire need to secure our borders and control immigration.
I can think of no better person to lead this country and fix the problems we have. He is the only candidate from either party who has specific and detailed plans on border security and immigration reform; revitalization of America’s armed forces; saving and protecting Social Security; and tax relief and economic growth. These are detailed on his Web site at www.fred08.com . I challenge you to find any other candidate who has laid out specific plans to fix anything.
Fred Thompson has published his first principles, some of which are mentioned above. In addition to those, he strongly believes in individual liberty, personal responsibility, limited government, federalism, traditional American values, the rule of law and is a strong proponent of the Second Amendment — all concepts established during the birth of our country and documented in our Constitution.
Again, try to find any candidate who has laid out their plans to “fix” this country. You will find they all speak in vague and abstract terms on their plans.
For those who have heard Fred Thompson speak, you will usually hear him say that the Fred Thompson you see today is the same Fred Thompson you saw yesterday and is the same Fred Thompson you will see tomorrow. He stands by his principles and values and doesn’t shift his positions based on polls or public opinion; in other words, he doesn’t say what the voters want to hear just to get elected, but remains steadfast on his views and convictions.
During his time in the Senate he focused on three areas: to lower taxes, strengthen national security and expose waste in the federal government. Fred Thompson has foreign policy experience, having served as member of the Senate Foreign Relations and Senate Intelligence committees.
As chairman of the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, he opened the investigation in 1997 on the Chinese government’s attempt to influence American policies and elections, and this investigation identified connections with the Clinton administration (documented in the committee’s report).
As a member of the Finance Committee, he worked tirelessly to enact three major tax-cut bills. Fred Thompson remains steadfast and even though a person may not agree with all his views and he understands some may disagree with him, you can count on him to be consistent and unwavering.
Don’t be fooled by his laid back approach and what critics call his “laziness.” As a former assistant U.S. attorney, he earned a reputation as a tough prosecutor and he possesses the toughness this country needs in order to tackle today’s and tomorrow’s issues.
I ask that you take a hard look at what this country needs, then take a hard look at all the other candidates’ views, policies, their records and their track record on consistency. Fred Thompson possesses integrity, loyalty, commitment, energy and decisiveness, all traits of an effective leader, and will emerge as the best person to take this country boldly forward. Fred is still in this race to win!
Please help Fred win in Florida:

INB4 Zot!
Interesting first post.
In before the ZOT.
You just signed up today to post this canard, with a link that doesn’t go anywhere?
Who does the ‘secret’ source claim would be the more electable candidate?
I second that.
Can I third the ZOT??
Fred withdrew?
Please post a link to the source of your declaration.
Oh, and PS: I think you did P1 here
Now I’m curious what PSP stands for. Just googled it.
Play Station Portable? Or progressive supranuclear palsy?
Jim,
A post with a secret link from a newbie...
Would you do the honors...
Your link doesn’t work
Your post has no content
You expressed no viewpoint.
IBTZ!!

So what brain dead schmuck penned this drivel of a “book”.
Sold, to Primetimedonna
Bye.

There is a a strong effort to stop Fred Thompson that runs deep.
And that is because he represents ordinary people, and it shows in contrast to all the other candidates.
The mainstream media saying in their way, that what your running on is taboo, and you will be blacked out.
To people on FR, keep the threads going on Fred, it’s getting to em!
Who has the most to gain from this post?
Things that make ya go HMmmmmm.
so you’re:
This account has been banned or suspended.
Your babysitter is going to be very upset with you for playing on the computer.
Easy folks.....Its MLK Day. School is out.
Its cold outside. These kids got nothing better to do.....
PSPI, your mother is calling...your hotpockets are ready. Run along.
All the other candidates inspire nothing except "electile disfunction" (the inabability to get excited about the available candidates.)
I am glad the moderator left this thread UP instead of removing it completely because of the DUMBASS that posted it. The second post, Mr. 2nd Div Vet wrote a good report, with which I agree and can attest to. I served under Carter, Reagan AND Bush in the military (and later Clinton and the current President).
Of them all, Reagan was, hands down the BEST and most awesome Commander in Chief we’ve had in my lifetime (that I can remember).
I personally worked for Reagan and Bush at the White House (WHCA) and think they both did a great job. I’ve met Fred Thompson a few times over the years at various functions and he strikes me as having a similar attitude and vision for America as Reagan had. His writing, his little pod casts and radio stuff he’s done shows, without a doubt he’s the right man for the job.
Compared to every, single individual running, it is FRED that should be elected, regardless of “polls” (which are BS) and the MSM (which is BIGGER BS).

Ah Geesh, another hellinahandbasket scorned Huckleberry.
Get over it.
Fred must really scare y’all.
Outstanding!!!!!!!!
Whose supporters have been in a frenzy of vitriol against FRedheads and ALSO have multiple mutiples.....
Things that make ya go HMmmmmm.
Love it, an oasis in the midst of a desert of old and boring cat zot images.
Paintball Sports Promotions.
Always looking for fresh material
I swiped it and put it on my homepage.
I keep wanting to adjust the mirror.
Sounds like this 'book' is being written by the same folks who started the "Fred is dropping out" rumor in IA, the "Fred is McCain's stalking horse" meme last week, and the newest "Fred is dropping out " rumors the last couple of days.
Of course the media dutifully 'reports' these comments as fact, dismissing any denials by Fred's campaign, if they even bother to try to contact them.
I LOVE it!!
