We saw Thompson in person on last Fall's NRO cruise. He's a true American conservative (he subbed for the late Paul Harvey from time to time) and Law and Order's loss is a gain for those of us hoping against hope and change that the U.S. will not become Trudeaupia South.
I have had a hard time caring about Mr. Thompson after his half-hearted effort at the Repub nomination.
He might have been the only candidate in that race with a serious chance of beating the Democrats, but after entering he did almost nothing. Seemingly he realized how hard it was to run for the presidency, let alone the terrible burden it carries.
I can't criticize him for not wanting to do the hard work required to have a serious shot at prez. The physical and mental demands are huge. But, if so, why did he bother entering in the first place?
He's a great talker, so I guess that's the best way to have him serve the conservative cause. But he's apparently not that rarer and much more worthy being... a talker AND do-er.

The Bondpapers has a VERY interesting post up today re Danny:
Who got the ($81,000) ABC money?
Using an Elections Canada website listing recipients, ..... E. Hollett can't find the said companies.
I remember some commenters here whistling past the graveyard on this issue. The trend continues. Of course he can always take the Chavez route and rig the elections. Who would call him on it? That would be racist. As a matter of fact, comparing him to Chavez is racist. Ridiculing him is racist. On those grounds alone, the inability to be ridiculed, disqualifies him for high office in a free country.
This may already be old news to some but if you are interested in talk shows I would suggest radiotime.com as an access site. All shows such as Beck, Limbaugh, Dennis Miller and the soon to be Fred Thompson show can be obtained through the site. No fees and very little IP blocking.
Tim That is why the census going to the control of the White House made me uncomfortable. With that data biased nothing good will happen. All parties gerrymander to some extent but total control?
Why this blog? Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice
of an ordinary Canadian
yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

mailserver in Europe)
I can't answer or use every
tip, but all are
appreciated!

Harper's WSJ interview was certainly a very positive one, speaking of leadership.

Go to Fox News.com (I use it for my home page) and download Fox News Live. This gives all kinds of listening options.
Love the guy, love his message, but he makes me sleepy.
I used to listen to O'Reilly, happy about this.
BTW, check out Zeros Approve Disapprove, he now has close to a third of us strongly disapproving.

I have to agree. If only FT had half the desire and energy McCain had I might now think differently.
