There's some good common sense stuff there. And, unfortunately for America today, common sense doesn't seem to be that common anymore.

not nearly as shiny as Mighty Mouse.

He's got an awesome copy writer!

"I was in a nearby town, so when I heard that the YRs were meeting in Hollywood FL, I knew I wanted to go over and pay my respects. The YRs are where the rubber meets the road in Republican politics. That is how I got my start a “few” years ago. I must say the reception was a lot warmer than the last time I was in “Hollywood.” My message was simple and brief: I am tired of people apologizing for America, the greatest beacon of hope for all freedom seeking people in the world."

Talk about information overload, I now know why you guys like him so much!

"education" ? Seriously?

WTH do you think he will say there? That he's against it? :rolleyes:

..and Abortion? Are ya shoot'n for another social experiment there, Shaun?

Abortion is a stupid, divisive "non-issue" that shouldn't even be debated seriously. It's a waste of time and the issue has been settled and upheld by the courts. Next.

Education is a complex issue. I imagine his stance on this matter is being developed. It'll be interesting to see what it ends up being - that's a critical one for Thompson.

Good call, Jeff.

and with that, you accept defeat. man when you go back over a year to take a personal swipe, you've lost Glenn. I own my dishonor on the Board. You'd make a good lobbyist.

Education? Seriously, it's only the most important issue in remaining competitive in the next 50 years.

I checked, and sure as ****....he's against it:D

Why is education even an issue with federal candidates? I think federal money makes up around 7% of what we spend on education. Might be a little more, but it's not much more than 10% at the most. No president is gonna fix even 20% of the problem with only 7% of the money. And Wash. DC public schools have proven over and over that money doesn't solve problems. Oh, and not a single elected official sends their kids to public school in DC.

Shaun, havent' you noticed how some people develop their political opinions?

It's easy and quick to simply imagine Thompson's stands. That way you don't have to do any research at all. Oh, and it works for the people you don't like, as well! You can imagine that they don't have any positions, or that they have positions you don't like -- without the trouble of ever looking them up!

Probably have to rule out Sam Brownback, then. That guy would be perfectly happy if the only textbook in schools was the Bible.

The irony is killing me.

I don't know that Thompson's campaign even has an official website with position papers yet. So whatever we say his positions are is just based on his Senate voting record or some of his canned speeches or radio soundbites. As long as he doesn't propose throwing more money at the "education problem", I can live with whatever other position he takes on that issue.

I still like Newt, at least his problems were with grown women. Just like the Mayors of Los Angeles and San Francisco. Not that Fred has a problem with women. It doesn't look like it anyway.

Agree. Sometimes people post stuff that, coming from them, is quite startling.

the Alanis Morrisette kind of irony?:confused:

What I can't understand is why no one can summarize Mighty Mouse's position on anything, yet he's the "best" candidate for President between both parties. So far I've got a website written by a screenwriter/copywriter.

:confused:

If only Mike Huckabee lived in at least the 20th century, he'd be a good candidate. Bill Richardson is a good candidate too. These are good men with good ideas.

Don't have good voices and aren't very shiny though. :(

Education is a state issue primarily, which no one seems to understand

Bill Richardson had a good idea?

Out of all the candidates, Mr Thompson is the only one who comes across as a genuine caring person. Maybe faked, but there it is. That will score points with middle america.

Shaun, if you really care what his positions are(which I am certain you do not), look at his voting record. He is consistent, reasonable and he faces the same direction no matter which way the wind happens to be blowing.
