CFR Council on foreign relations = yes, Fred is a member

CFR Campaign finance reform = he regrets his vote, heard him say it myself.

I like my firearms.

I'll vote for Fred.

How about Ron Paul?

Thanks, Ron, I didn't get the finance reform part.  I thought Thompson was a CFR member, but couldn't find any confirmation.  Of course, that makes him evil.   smiley

Seems to me that Fred Thompson is the only candidate from either party who has made his views on RKBA issues perfectly clear. Who else in the lineup has suggested that permit holders be allowed to carry on campuses?

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

I LOT of us forgot about that guy, and will continue to do so.  I made it a point to forget about him after his Iraq speech.  laugh

Gewehr, I forget him before that, but also on the Iraq issue.  I guess we can't handle the truth.   rolleyes

A lot of people who support the war in Iraq can't handle the truth about it. In fact most just resort to typical rhetoric saying that Iraq was a threat and Saddam supported Al-Qaeda.

Of course, everybody's a military expert on Iraq.  Just like they're football experts come Monday nights as they sit in the armchair in front of the TV, yelling at the quarterback.   rolleyes

You including yourself in that statement?   grin

I apologize in advance for veering wildly off topic, but I was trying to find the author of the quotation in your signature and couldn't find it. Do you know the source? While googling I found an image that I found compelling and thought you'd like ... I'm not a Marine, but 'Semper Fi', young man.

The first quote I can attibute to the girlfriend of a roommate.

The second quote I am not sure.  I saw it somewhere a while back and thought it said quite a lot.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

I don't need to be a military expert to know that we shouldn't even be in that country. Something about dat der Constitution.
 But you and I both know that I will not convince you of that and you will not convince me otherwise.

So...how bout dem bears.....
