thank you for directing Joe to the Fred.08 site. He will learn much by doing some research into Fred’s positions.

Really? Is a salesman usually your primary source of information? I would think you’d want to be skeptical about a politician’s stated position.

Even if we confine ourselves to just Fred’s site, there are some pretty glaring contradictions. Read his Principles page and then read his Issues page with the “principles” in mind.

I think you will find that his “principles” are more like “thinks I support except when I don’t.”

If you have trouble, you can start by reading this post from a couple days ago.

The Huckster has flipped on every subject except abortion and there he mindnumbingly offers that we should amend the supreme law of the land…what an imbecile dictator.

The learning curve required by people today in understanding what Federalism means to us is rather frustratingly slow. It demonstrates just how ludicrous our education system truly is but, it’s not too late to wake up and smell the coffee.

Judicial Activism is directly to blame for nationwide abortion, redefining marriage and undermining our family as an institution. Screwing around with our Constitution to overcome this is a wrongheaded and grave mistake in knee-jerking a solution for a symptom…it is also not our instructions on how to proceed to correct wrongs.
Deal with the cause by appointing strict constructionist judges and boot the black-robed, self-appointed gods who are apparently above our separation of powers out.

Fred has discussed Federalism many times and defines it for anyone willing to learn what they should already know here;

You will then appreciate anyone offering to amend our Constitution for such wrongheaded reasons couldn’t possibly be considered to occupy the highest office of our land.

As for The Huckster, an author has worked hard to provide us with facts about him;

Lets be responsible voting citizens as our duty dictates, be informed of the truth and not swayed by spin.

Just in case anyone would like direct evidence what Fred is saying is absolutely correct, as he always is, try these few;

He then demanded that it’s alright to hire illegal aliens;

Huckster even threatened to sue our government over the Real ID Act;

Huckster is also not afraid to call us “Un-American” and “Anti-Christian”;

ANd while you ar there, eating your words (”Fred Thompson doesn’t know why he is running for president or what his platform is”), read all three sections, On the Issues, Principles and White Papers. See especially Fred’s development on Federalism,

Next time you start to spout the hot air blown by Mass Media Podpeople, perhaps you’ll pause to actually get some facts first, eh?

Or not…

“…his attempt to revive himself as a political figure is embarassing.”

Of course it is. To illiterates who cannot read and understand his clear positions or to folks who have ears to hear but stuff them full of candy corn instead. God save this country from her subliterate electorate…
