1. stupid republican !
I actually had a republican tell me that one reason he was voting for Thompson in the SC primary was that he was so convincing when he played the President in a movie. I told him he should vote for Morgan Freeman then: he had played both the President and God.

4. Ol' Fred's gonna "Shuffle Off to Buffalo"
Matrimony is baloney
She'll be wanting alimony
In a year of so
Still they go and shuffle
Shuffle Off to Buffalo
When she knows as much as we know
She'll be on her way to Reno
While he still has dough
She'll give him the Shuffle
When they're back from Buffalo

5. Stay in the race Fred!!!!!
I don't want to have to pick a new Asshat candidate to cheer for. You did 8 times better than Mr. 9/11 and he isn't dropping out. Stay in all the way to the convention! The GOP needs a ticket full of laziness and jowls and only you can provide enough laziness and jowls to push the Dem ticket to an election day rout not seen since 1984. With your help, the Dem ticket can win every last state!

Please stay in Fred.

8. His withdrawal speech
Edited on Tue Jan-22-08 05:25 PM by hippywife
was definitely the height of laziness, that's for sure. I heard in on NPR on the way home and thought, Geez! the man's an actor, surely he could do better than that! His supporters didn't even get a good memory to take home with them. :eyes:

7. Thank god! The last thing we need is another actor playing a president.
We've had two - one was a good actor but a shitty politician. The other was a shitty politician AND a shitty actor!
