Fred Thompson’s wife Jeri Thompson has started to be the focus of more news coverage since she is very involved in the Fred Thompson campaign (well, word is it will officially be a “campaign” on September 5th), so I thought I’d do some research on her. Facts about her aren’t as easy to come by as they are about Fred Thompson whose actions are stamped throughout history, but here is what I found:
JERI THOMPSON FACTS
* Jeri Thompson’s favorite scented candles are ginger peach, cinnamon vanilla, and blood of her enemies.
* Jeri Thompson has been called a “trophy wife” just because she’s pretty, but the other candidate’s spouses never get called “honorable mention wives.” Double standard!
* Jeri Thompson appeared on the O’Reilly Factor in 1999. It’s the only time in recorded history that O’Reilly didn’t interrupt a guest.
* As a Republican strategist, her main contribution to the Republican Party was the “Don’t Be a Bunch of Whiny Wusses” strategy. Unfortunately, that’s fallen out of favor in recent years.
* Jeri Thompson always clearly states what she is thinking and doesn’t expect someone else to infer her thoughts.
Okay; I made the last one up. No woman does that.

HAHAHAHA
i read the title too quickly and thought it was about jedi thompson, that would have been cool.
//No woman does that.//
Sounds like you want to sleep on the couch for a while.
Jeri Thompson’s getting more news coverage? Honey, if I looked like that, I’d be getting more news coverage too. Men would become reporters just to give me more news coverage.
And let’s face it, she’s probably the only thing keeping him alive. That and the (very) light campaign schedule.
You gotta love this election. In what should have been a cakewalk, the Dems will nominate either the first woman or the first black – and knowing them, probably both.
The GOP, already in an uphill fight, have a choice between three guys who look like they’ve been embalmed, and one who looks like a mannequin.
And waiting in the wings, a whiny Jew without a Jew’s prayer (but a billion dollars to spend) who could screw it up for both sides.
Hoo boy…
Gunga thinks SarahK should author all future Jeri Thompson Facts…so that Frank doesn’t have to sleep on the couch forever. Anyway, when it comes to trophy wives, it takes one to know one…not that there’s anything wrong with that…
I wish my wife were a trophy wife. It’d be so much quieter around here after the taxidermy…
It’s a good thing she doesn’t read this stuff, or I’d be sleeping on the couch.
Blood candles is people.
AlanBBQ – Funniest comment ever.
I wonder if having a hot wife/girlfriend is a coping mechanism for famous and hated conservatives.
See Fred, Dubya, Frank J., and Salman Rushdie.
Oddly enough, the real reason Jeri is called a “trophy wife” is because of the collection of human ears she has hanging on the rec room wall.
ROFL Cirby!!!! You gotta love the creepy hypocrisy on the left. “Trophy wife”, whatever…
Carolynp:
Have you seen most of the wives of the Democrat contenders? That potential new Clinton First Lady – you know, Billie – looks, well, mannish.
And we nearly got stuck with John Kerry (definitely a trophy wife for that Heinz woman).
I’ve often thought of becoming a golf…, trophy wife.
She’s hooteriffic!
