I have typically failed miserably each time I’ve tried to embed a video. However, in the spirit of “never say die” I am trying again. I saw this video, and I wanted to post it.
I was a Fred Thompson fan long before he announced that he would seek the Republican nomination. I was disappointed in his lackluster and shortlived campaign. However, I’m still a fan.
This clip is of Fred talking with Sean Hannity. He touches on whether or not there’s a chance of a McCain-Thompson ticket, and then he talks about Obama. My thoughts exactly!

The best part of that interview is that his intelligence and honest message rings true every single time he speaks;
“I thought I had an opportunity to do some things in a different way and if I was successful I could lead in a different way but, that didn’t work out. I am interested in absolutely nothing else other than doing what I can to help those who are trying to help this country, and be a good citizen and do those things that I can do now in the private sector to help these kids and grandchildren but that does not involve going to state funerals in faraway places. ”
We lost an honest to God president in this election and someone who runs out of other than personal ambition for the toughest job on the planet happens less than once in a lifetime, much less.

I was never a Fred Thompson fan; but he shows amazing clarity of thought and expression and an admirable sense of patriotism and selflessness in this interview. He is exactly right about Obama! Thanks for the clip - I had not seen it or heard about it.
