[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Fred Thompson's name is a liability, from a "Monica" at the Washington Post.......

In the swampy soup of hopefuls for the 2008 presidential election, there is a man with a funny name. (No, not that one.)

We're thinking of the one named Fred (Thompson).

Say it out loud. Do it. Fred. Fred. In the South, Fray-ud.

Fur-red-duh.

It has the tonal quality of something being dropped on the floor, something heavy and damp-ish.

Waterlogged paper towel.

Monica at the Washington Post

Once again liberals with no real argument resort to playground tactics to attack someone.

who the fuck does "monica hesse" think she is? Fucking cunt wasted time writing such a shitty article that the WP allowed to get posted on their site?

When you HAVE to find something wrong with someone's name (because you can't find anything of SUBSTANCE to bitch about) I'd say some people must be shitting kittens at the very THOUGHT that Fred is going to run.

Nice touch on the "in the South" Fray-ud bit. That was sure classy.....

Who in the hell edits this stuff?

Fred Thompson
Barack Hussein Obama

um... yeah, "Fred" sure sounds strange

Posted: 8/12/2007 3:28:47 PM EDT

I fail to see the problem. "Fred" sounds American. Compare that to some others........

Barack HUSSEIN Obama...Sounds an awful lot like a murderous dictator.

Hillary Clinton.......Hmm , Hitlery.....Another murderous dictator

Rudolph Gulliani......Sounds like a mob boss

John Edwards....Sounds suspiciously like a Sci-Fi channel fake ass psychic

Who would you rather have running the show? An American man , or a fake ass power hungry mafia runnin peasant murdering dictator?

Sure makes a lot of sense to bitch about a name like "Fred"

It could be a lot worse... How the hell can you take a guy named Newt seriously?

Gotta dig deep for this crap.

the south...I love it.

I don't say Frey-ud...wtf?

If she thinks the name "Fred" has some sort of implication, she might want to take a look in the mirror. What does the name "Monica" make you think of?

This is the type of useless crap that too many people grab ahold of and run with.

it's a big fucking liability all right.......................for hillary clinton

If they had real dirt on him, I'd be worried.

No, Fred's name is not a liability.

His stance on China is a liability, his support of McCain-Feingold is a liability, hell is inoperable cancer is a liability, but no one wants to talk about that. They'd rather make fun of his name or go after his wife.

Whatever.

Laura Jamey, from left, Monica Hesse and Risa Rice join other gays and lesbians at July's Guerilla Queer Bar Takeover at the Big Hunt in Dupont Circle. Once a month, the group gathers at a usually "straight" bar for the night.

WHAT A SHOCKER!!!

AARP The Magazine assistant editor Monica Hesse, The Magazine Group assistant editor Nick Kolakowski, and On Tap magazine editor Jenny Mayo.

It doesnt matter as she is getting slammed in the comments section

Posted: 8/12/2007 4:13:22 PM EDT

[#22]

Man, you guys dug up more on her than I'd even thought about. I just read the article and recognized that it was ridiculous. Between ARF and the comments section, she'll be looking for a prescription sleep medication.....
