Top-Notch Thompson
We’re lucky to have men like Fred.

That was Fred Thompson on Saturday in South Carolina during a sincere, passionate, well-grounded speech that sounded like his farewell to the campaign trail. With his announcement Tuesday afternoon that he has withdrawn his candidacy for the Republican nomination for president, we now know it was. It was a bittersweet moment for any conservative who had been watching his campaign and wished it had been a more effective one earlier in the process. It was also a moment for the ages — one that every civics class in America should reflect upon: Politics is about policy and service to this great nation; that’s what makes the campaign worthwhile. That’s why you put up with the trophy-wife slanders and Chris Matthews’s questions.

‘We need to deserve to lead. And this is what this is all about; it’s about deserving to lead.”

K-Lo needs to just show up at the next Fred event and throw her panties and her hotel room key at him.
If I was a real conspiracy theorist, I would surmise that K-Lo is secretly a plant for the anti-women's suffrage movement. Every time she writes, she gives yet another demonstration of why women should never be allowed to vote.
Why do you make everything so damn personal? It's people like you who make people sick of politics. God forbid if anybody expresses an opinion different from yours. You take yourself so damn seriously. You're a loser, pal. Get a life!
Or here's an even better theory: She's a leftist plant, intended to make right-wing pundits look stupid.
Give it up, K-Lo, most of them can do that on their own.
