Sen. Fred Thompson Responds to Michael Moore Challenge
2007-05-16
With short video at link
Breitbart.tv Exclusive: The confrontation over Cuba continues. Michael Moore has challenged Fred Thompson to a health care debate. At issue -- Moore's trip to Cuba and Thompson's criticism of that trip. Moore noted Thompson's evident favor for Cuban cigars as a possible violation of the trade embargo. Now, Thompson responds. Cigar in hand.

#16  Of Thompson's acting, one pundit wrote that he can only play himself as an administrator of some kind. Not true. He did some sour comedy on "Rosanne," but he was excellent as a con-man on the "Wiseguy" series. Being an actor didn't hurt Ronald Reagan, or Arnold.

#15  ex-lib, everytime I hear "The Soldier", I always get chills and a lump in my throat. The first time I heard it, was on a radio station in Boston. I contacted the station to get a copy; but no luck. I had been trying to find the author or the source. I was hoping to pin it up on my office wall. So far, I haven't had much luck.

Go Fred go!

#14  Glenn Reynolds had a poll on Instapundit last night asking his readers who won.

Fred Thompson got the highest numbers at 32%.

Heh.


(I didn't watch the "debate" but I'm pretty sure Fred Thompson wasn't even there. :-D)

#3  Dominican Davidovs are better than anything out of Fidel Island.

Re Cuban health system: they quarantine AIDS victims. Much fewer diseases can be or are treated in Cuba than in the US. I had a CT-Scan for a kidney stone; how many Cubans would even have access to those devices? Swallows had a nest in a corner of a dental office where I was treated in Colima, Mexico. You probably find the same thing in Cuba.

#1  Wasn't actor Alan Waters, aka HANG 'EM MCCOY on "LAW AND ORDER", considering entering politics, a short while back at roughly the same timeline as actor ALEC BALDIN began his current period of activism???

That being said, KOMMERSANT > DARK HORSE STUMBLES. Russia's persepective on Bloomberg's run for POTUS.
