I posted this link to Craptocracy in the last thread, and here’s what they have to say about Fred: A former lawyer, the cancerous Sen. Thompson’s main qualification is he played small parts in various movies and TV shows. Thompson can’t seem to be bothered to put any effort into his vanity campaign, but if elected, he promises to put some effort into bombing people. Legitimate criticisms of him will be deflected by well practiced cornpone anecdotes.
Do you see the instant contradiction & lie before the first sentence is finished? A former lawyer, the cancerous Sen. Thompson’s main qualification is he played small parts in various movies and TV shows.
Cancerous? Does that mean Thompson is spreading? Have they not seen Robble Robble’s support base? And are they admitting that being an actor makes one better qualified for the presidency than being a legal expert? Not that we didn’t already know that, thanks to the former actor Ronald Reagan (PBUH) & the “legal pros” Bill and Hillary Clinton.
Oh, and I guess being a senator for eight years, being a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and also being a Visiting Fellow with the American Enterprise Institute don’t count as “qualifications”.
AlanABQ I think your giving the PaulBot to much credit… I think he actually might be making fun of Fred Thompson because he had cancer… If so I don’t even have the words to describe my disgust.
Alan, Reagan’s qualifications for the presidency were his anti-communism crusade, eight years as governor of California (back before Cali was Mexico North/Seattle South), and small-government rhetoric (at a time when elected Republicans didn’t even bother to pay lip service to small government). Fred’s qualifications, on the other hand, seem to be that he was an actor — just like Reagan! — and reportedly spent eight years in the US Senate between wives (hey, Reagan was married twice too!).
I assume you’re just mentioning the CFR and AEI to troll me, right? You don’t seriously consider them to be positive attributes that enhance your candidate’s suitability to be president? Hell, maybe you do. “Conservatism” sure has chanced a lot in the last 8 years…
AR, read a little further and you’ll see that “cancer is to Republican candidates what lawyering is to Democrats”. It’s funny because it’s true. Next you’re going to say we can’t joke about AIDS.
Hey jerk, would you make fun of someone with AIDS? Huh? Would you laugh at Freddy Mercury as he died his slow and painful death? You weren’t making a general joke about cancer (which would have been ok) but instead you were attacking him for HAVING CANCER. You are disgusting.
The only reason Fred got sick is that he still has a soul to sell, an impediment not currently pestering the democratic mainstream & their presidential hopefuls.
I don’t think conservatism has changed much in the last 27 years. I do think the Republican party has had setbacks due to flaky leadership that borders on liberalism. But even with that having been said, here’s hoping Thompson is half the President that Reagan (PBUH) was, which would still be light years ahead of the 2 previous administrations.
rast,

See this is acceptable humor.
Just because his cancer isn’t fatal (yes I already knew that, I think we all did) doesn’t make it something you can use as an insult against him. If you don’t understand why what you said is wrong you have no place in society.
Well considering I’m pretty sure your a stupid PaulBot, you wouldn’t have any place in society anyway.
I have plenty of things to be outraged about, for instance I’m outraged that people like Ron Paul are doing everything they can to make sure America loses the war in Iraq to further their own political agendas. I’m outraged that people are printing fake money to support a certain politician, I’m outraged that a certain candidate refuses to speak up against his nazi, anarchist and troofer supporters, because they are most of his supporters. I’m outraged a certain candidate is using the republican party to gain himself stature but has clearly stated he has no plans to endorse the republican who wins the primary.
“Acceptable humor” is just another way of saying “bland and unfunny”. So now you’re outraged at unaccceptable humor, at a candidate who is polling at 3% and will win zero out of 51 primaries, and at people stamping dollar amounts on their homemade coins — it sure seems like outrage comes easily to you. Perhaps next you’ll be outraged over polar bear deaths caused by the ozone “hole”.
Jeeze, rast. You’re gonna be one of these “this site isn’t funny & I’m gonna keep posting ’til I have the last word” kinda gals, yeah?
Tell you what- I’ll save you some time & effort (even though we all know how you feel about laziness)-
You win!! We are sooooo unfunny. Our candidate of choice is lazy. We’re all a bunch of stupid-heads.
Thanks for setting us straight.
Heh.
The other funny thing is that he/she might really think that polar bears are going to be adversely affected because of an ozone “hole” over the completely opposite polar region.
But not to worry! We’ll get PETA to make sure none of the polar bears travel any further south than the Tropic of Cancer.
Oops! there’s that word again… that ought to make rast happy.
LMAO!
You should worry about the hole in the o-zone directly over the pole… the day that the sun positions itself to shine directly onto the pole that is…
Our message of thanks to Fred Thompson!
Please spread the word:
Remember Fred’s Giving Day on Nov 21, 2007

AR, Fred will die of old age long before the cancer gets him; it’s just as lazy as he is. Go find something real to be outraged over.

You’re right, AlanBBQ. Rast wins… got us all right where it hurts! I have tasted my own medicine and it is BITTER!
Heh.

Alan: The polar bears mention was sarcasm, just another example of a non-issue for AR to whine in outrage over.
And the thread was officially pronounced dead @ 3:18 PM.
