It's Official... Fred Thompson's in the race...
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20624279/
No thread on this yet?
Not much of a surprise really, thoughts?
I like him, the only conservative of the bunch who isn't a flip-flopper (McCain) or a phony (Rudy, whom I like as a person, but is no conservative) and actually believes in conservative values.
However, his Law and Order TV fame will hurt him more than help him, methinks.

That is all we need: another acting president.

Wouldn't it be funny if all people in this thread would quote the "That is all we need: another acting president." and half of them mean it sarcastically while the others mean it literally?

There was talk awhile back of pasing a law that would allow any immagrant citizen to run for president if they had been a US citizen for at least 20 years.
Arnold v.s. Hillary '08!
That would have been awesome.

I can just see Arnold's reelection slogan.

You don't like Huckabee? Hell, I like Huckabee and I'm a godless liberal. Gov. Huckabee's really likable.

I like somebody who has a chance of WINNING.
For the Reps its McCain, Rudy, or now.. Fred Thompson.
Of the 3, I like Thompson.
Doesn't mean that he's the best, but of the ones who've got any kind of shot, he's who I'd pick.

Apparently, he thinks that the solution to school shootings like the one at Virginia Tech is to give more college students gun. The man honestly said that college students should be allowed to wander around armed to the gills.
But, in the next breathe he talks about how we have to disarm every other nation with nuclear weapons.
I don't understand the logic of everyone has a gun so it will deter anyone from using a gun for wrong, but every other country with nuclear weapons (except, I assume, for the countries we've given them to) has to give theirs up.

Do you realize how superficial that sounds?

I will admit that when I hear him speak, he's one of only two candidates on that side of the aisle that strikes me as sincere.

hmm... that's rather stupid. Hadn't heard that quote.
Now I'm back to square one.
I guess if Obama wins it it'll be ok.quote: (post ) Originally posted by Devil King

Who's the other?

It wasn't a single quote. But that's why I think he just says what comes to mind when asked a question. As Ghandi said, convictions should be slowly formed, but once they have they should be defended at all costs. I also don't understand Thompson's thing about his red truck.
Ron Paul is the other. I think he honestly believes what he says. It's just far too much of a head in the sand attitude. I understand that Washington warned against foreign entanglements, but this isn't 300 years ago. The world community is a fact and our need to interact with it can't be underestimated. The other extreme seems to be represented by the majority of Republican candidates.

Well it would be somewhat fun to see the US as an isolated country, it would really make things in Asia far more interesting.
