    Oh christ, this reminds me of people attack Michael Moore for interviewing Charles Heston. Charles Heston was the president of the NRA at the time, if he couldn’t handle Michael Moore, he shouldn’t be in that position.

    First of all, Thompson doesn’t have a speech impediment. Secondly, it’s not his age that’s the problem because McCain is older than him. Finally, if he’s ‘too old’ to handle a debate, then he’s ‘too old’ to be president.

    All the same, it’s not very instructive out of context.

    Freddie won the debate hands down because he didn’t once forget to breathe the entire time!
    He also told a joke too!

    A 12-year-old who talks about a government program that helped his family- fair game.

    A 70-year-old who wants to run for leader of the free world- how dare you criticise him!!!one!!!!1@

    Ain’t He Articulate?

    Right-wingers don’t go for those fancy schmancy nancy boys who are all ejooocated and shit.

    In their muddled world thinking and speaking coherently is for pansies.

    He’s laconic … a Gary Cooper type. – Chris Matthews on Countdown with Keith Olbermann Tues. Oct 09, 2007

    (Sh’yeah, riiiight.)

    Tweety at his most poochedly pathetic, ever desperate to find a new manly man crotch to sniff now that the vaunted Codpiece of Justice is plumb smelled-out from daily media huffing.

    And Fred Thompson is objectively repulsive, though a wheezingly ideal representative of the Grampaw’s Old Pecker party.
