You repeatedly accuse anyone who has not been a private enterprise manager or a state level executive of having no “leadership” experience, and I am telling you straight up that you don’t have any idea what leadership is.

Senators and others with legislative backgrounds can and often do have well honed and very effective leadership skills.

They HAVE to because they don’t get to order people around, which is what you seem to think leadership consists of. Leadership is nothing of the kind.

I like Fred Thompson. But, if you look at his resume (and forget party for a moment). It is the same as Hillary’s.

1.Lawyer
2.Watergate Counsel
3.Eight years in Senate.

Of course, their policies and personalities are vastly different. That’s why I like Fred and dispise Hillary. However, if you that Fred’s depth and type of experience qualifies him for president, then you can’t call hillary underqualified.

FRED has my vote in Kansas! FRED THOMPSON will be the surprise of the election cycle.

FRED THOMPSON - NATIONAL SECURITY EXPERT (I’ll protect the American people and American values, whatever it takes to stop the Islamic-Fascists including water-boarding) - 2ND AMENDMENT ADVOCATE (arming the People to disarm criminals) – INCREASE THE MILITARY’S STRENGTH AND SIZE (giving those brave men and women a Commander in Chief to be proud of) - SECURE AND SEAL THE BORDERS (don’t give sanctuary anywhere to illegal’s, don’t employ illegal’s, don’t rent to illegal’s, don’t extend credit to illegal’s, don’t give illegal’s rights they don’t deserve, report all crimes committed by illegal’s and deport those illegal’s who have already committed crimes against America) - LAW AND ORDER (enforcement first and foremost with laws currently on the books) – DENY FEDERAL DOLLARS TO SANCTUARY CITIES (enough is enough) – CONSERVATIVE JUSTICES FOR SUPREMES (those who will interpret the law, not create rights that do not exist) – PRO-LIFE ADVOCATE (nominate superior Constitutional Justices to overturn Roe vs Wade) - SOCIAL SECURITY REFORMER (reform a broken program that can’t sustain itself and will bankrupt future generations, with the added benefit of private savings accounts) - DEFEAT ANY DEMOCRAT AND RINO (any fool DemocRATS put up) – TAX SIMPLIFICATION (variety of choice for the tax payer) - WON’T PUT UP WITH CRAP FROM THE MSM (including stupid questions by moderators and pundits) - “WE THE PEOPLE” CANDIDATE (We the People asked him to run and he stepped up) - PING!

Laughable that you would compare Hillary’s job as a staff assistant during Watergate, almost little better than an intern, really, with Fred Thompson’s job as THE minority counsel. You are quite a piece of work.

I’m taking this off track a bit, but you make a good point. SOMEONE thought enough of FDT to make him minority counsel at the age of what.....if my calculations are correct, about 31?

That IS impressive. But it makes me wonder, how he was selected above all other possible candidates? This isn’t a political point, just me kinda wondering about things. What had Fred done prior to that to get him this kind of attention?

Hank
