"A nation without secure borders will not long be a sovereign nation," says Fred Thompson. "No matter how much lipstick Washington tries to slap onto this legislative pig, it's not going to win any beauty contests."

Fred Thompson running for president

I hope this is true.  The current field of so-called Republican candidates is pretty bleak.  Thompson has a record I respect, he has not flipped nor flopped, and he truly believes in Conservative ideals.

The Right in America is in trouble.  The current crop of Republican front-runners are either unabashed social liberals, or they are on EVERY side of the issues with no clear position.  With no clear message, and no clear ideals, there is no way the Republicans can hope to win back Congress and hold on to the White House. 

Enter Fred Thompson.

If he can communicate the ideals of Conservative government and spark a fire in the base then the nomination is his to lose.  Be prepared for the media to either embrace him or tear him apart.  (I suspect the latter, so I hope he has is personal affairs in order because the Left are vultures! )

So, for what it is worth, ConservativeGirl is standing behind Fred Thompson.  It is 100% official.  I look at it this way, the last time an actor was president things were not so bad .... not so bad at all.
