At the RNC the inimitable Fred Thompson was so smitten with not only himself, but with his new crush Mistress Palin that he took a moment to make one of the most memorable and profound comments in Political Speech History. He said, and I quote (obviously) “…and she’s the only Vice Presidential Nominee who can field dress a Moose…” slamming his fist in a downward motion to make this an even more important point. (quick note: I’m not actually sure how accurate that quote is in the sense of it being word for word which is kind of the point of quoting someone…but what’s important here is that he said some shit about his admiration for the fact that she could indeed field dress a Moose…whatever that means). I myself could probably field dress Palin if only given two things: One, a lesson on “How to” field dress something you’ve hunted down and killed and Two, the opportunity to do just that!!! One last note: I realize this has nothing to do with the original post and it’s subsequent fallout but I thought it worth bringing up. Also, I think Freddy said the thing about Palin/Moose/Field Dressing because, like most of us more sane people he wasn’t sure any of those Honkey’s were actually listening to his inane banter.

I can’t believe you’ve made me into a minor celebrity! Why so negative about the GOP? The Republicans freed the slaves, saved the Union, created national parks, passed the Civil Rights Act, desegregated public schools, created the EPA, ended the Vietnam war, liberated over 50 million people in Afghanistan and Iraq, saved Kuwait, ended the Korean war, cut taxes and much more. Have we had another terrorist attack since 9/11/01? Think about it! BTW, did you know that the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. died a republican? Look it up!

I won’t vote for a Law & Order actor unless it’s BD Wong. I think the Wong would lead this country into greatness.

In response to “traditional American values”, such as personal liberty, that were established during the birth of our country…white men were the only people allowed to have personal lierties back then. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not mad at my husband, Thomas Jefferson or any of those guys, they wanted to have a democratic form of government (not a capaltist one, which is what we have now & probabally the root of our problem, but that’s beside the point) we have them to thank for not being subjects of a monarch. However, don’t forget, back then we had slaves, women were not allowed to have posessions, we slaughtered almost all of the native population & claimed their land as ours, in the name of Manifest Destiny.
Which brings me to my next point. If you live in the U.S. & aren’t a Native American, you are, or one of your ancestors was an immagrant. This country is based on immagration; why are we now trying to outlaw people, who are looking for a better life, from coming here?

All I’m saying is that one day you’re blogging about Fred Thompson… and then you haven’t been heard from since. I hope the stealth army hasn’t assassinated you. I would be totally bummed if that happened.

I was watching BBC and CNN today at the same time (on two different TVs silly!!) and they said that Fred Thompson supports slavery, female slavery, puppy murder, and morbid obesity.

Here’s a quote from CNN “Fred Thompson should not be President because he is not and will never be qualified.” They then went on talking about how ugly he is. I personally thought it was really rude and disrespectful, but then I sort of laughed.

My name is not Fred Paxson, and I support this message about how Fred Thompson is a jackass. Also: every Republican born after 1970 is also a huge tool. If you vote for anyone but Obama, you want America to be blown up by terrorists. There, I said it.

Kevin got the shaft last week on PR. I mean he has/had beard triangles, for Christ’s sake. Does that not mean anything anymore?

Fred Thompson is a dick shit.

Ron Paul is not a racist. Vote for him.

I was a nationally-syndicated editorial cartoonist for seven years, and messages like you’re getting constituted approximately 100% of my total emails–insane, barely literate, and completely missing the point. I used to love love love getting email like this–it’s a badge of honor among editorial cartoonists. If I wasn’t pissing people off, then I wasn’t doing my job.

Fred Thompson has more experience pretending to be president than any other candidate, so why shouldn’t you just take away “pretending” and replace it with “being”? It’s really semantics. He has also played a white house chief of staff, a district attorney, a CIA agent, and NASCAR chief, so he’s obviously qualified to do one of those jobs if not elected as Real President.

I’d like to throw Thompson’s name in the hat for another position. Patrick Swayze’s character in Road House is named Dalton. Fred Thompson’s middle name is Dalton. Fred Thompson is gruff, plays characters that don’t take no guff from no one, and hates gays and immigrants. Could Fred Thompson be head bouncer at the Double Deuce? Not out of the realm of possibility for Fred Dalton Thompson.

I agree that he is a devil, but “the” devil? What about all those devils? The “horny devils”? The devils in my eggs? The devil in Miss Jones? Dirt Devils? Could they all be Fred Paxon? If so, that explains a lot about my lunch yesterday.

Um, no, Sam Raimi is not going to win, despite his being bandmates with Bill Paxton (the aforementioned Devil) in the band Simple Plan. Sam Raimi isn’t even running, duh.

Agreed. Don’t you think Rami is going to win? Thank you for blogging, it has kept me entertained all day. I’m a little concerned for you though…the swiftness of Thompson’s minions is sort of scary. Perhaps you should sleep with one eye open.

According to Eggbert Romney isn’t the Devil brothers with, like, Jesus? So using mathematics, which I think is very appropriate in this context, we can use the transitive property of equality, I believe it’s called, to determine that Fred Thompson is Jesus’ brother. But then Jesus is also the son of God, but, it’s like, aren’t we really ALL God’s children? So wouldn’t it be awkward running into your brother Fred Thompson at a family reunion after all this stuff you’ve said about him? Food for thought, Michael.

I absolutely agree with your statement that Bill Paxton is the devil. I think it was socially irresponsible of him to suggest that Fred Paxson would make an excellent Commander in Chief, and wish he and Susan Lucci and Sean Connery and every other loudmouth Libertarian celebrity would just shut their piehole.

Well, let’s not go too far. Nothing could ever replace Project Runway. I mean: the future of our planet is one thing, but making Baby Doll dresses out of Hershey’s wrappers is a whole different ball of yarn. Nothing will ever come between me and PR. Not even Fred Thompson’s stealth army.
