On the Tonight Show, the slowest moving transition from non-candidate to candidate justifies his choice to share the screen with Jay Leno instead of John McCain and Mitt Romney.

Per Ruthless People, “Frederick of Hollywood”!
Was it past his nap time?
Fred looks sleepy.
Hmmmm always hear people referring to those awful “Hollywood Types” that express concern and opinions..same folks put a “Hollywood Type” up for Pres.
When old men lose a lot of weight in a short time they always look older. Fred must have dropped a whole lot.
Hey everybody, “Do The Freddy!”
For all those Freddie And The Dreamers fans.
The LA Times has a great hit piece on Thompson and how he basically married into success….very interesting story
Jay Leno is no meano when it comes to “interviewing.” I thought that I was watching a senior citizen softball game.

All talk, no substance. We’ve had too much of that already. Walk on by, Fred.
How can he be president? His fucking head is melting.
What a tool. What does that mean, its a lot more difficult to get on the Tonight Show? Was he just gratuitously stroking Leno’s ego, or was he saying something about his access?
He’s right about the debates, but I don’t see him offering to go mano a mano with Ron Paul either.
Rusty Shackleford @ 10:
I love your King of the Hill reference in your name.
I live in OK and thats one of the best cartoons of all time.
Thompson is just a CFR shill. He was also a lobbyist for GE.
Doesn’t Leno have to give the other candidates equal time?
And the Applause light goes on!
So we now have a former district attorney running alongside a guy who played one on TV. And who can forget his heroic role as Admiral Joshua Painter in The Hunt For Red October!
Maybe I need to spend a night at a Holiday Inn Express and declare my candidacy.
What great news…
This will torpedo Mitt and Rudy down south, and Mitt, a nasty boy
if ever there was one, will not like being in third place, and will
start firing lots of mud around.
Love to see the debate between Judith (don’t call me judy), Fred’s
teenage bride, and Romneys Wifey (my boys also serve in Iowa..
that’s the same as Iraq, right?)
I wonder if Mitt and Rudy are now going to develop a drawl, like
Hillary did on her swing through the south….
This is just SO much fun, watching these clowns try to out macho
each other…
Ugggh… already saw this movie…. Didn’t care for it much the first time and they at least had a buff dude who didn’t look like he just got back from a holiday in Cambodia….
Looking like a worn out cancer victim is not the best public image to try and work when ya want to end up president…. But then all the guy really has is a gruff voice which does have a sort of faux J.E. Jones thing working…. But if voices were the prime criteria to judge by, I’d say Obama’s voice can kick Freddy’s voices ass…..jus sayin….Not really the criteria I vote on personally….
Truth is, Fred is not the best choice or even the third best choice from either sides perspective…. Still if his presence can delute and scatter the GOP vote… well, more power to em I guess….
Either way the fucker will never get my vote.. I don’t care how many pr experts he hires to ‘burnish’ his image…. He’s a tool now, he was a tool when he was in the senate before… He’s shown he will always be a tool as well as a third rate actor.
And, contrary to the idea that he would at least be a good T.V. president… No…But big whoop… we don’t want or need to have a good T.V. president anymore, we want a good president period…. One with their head screwed on straight, with the ‘whole’ nations interests at heart, not one specific party ideology… But Freddy woundn’t even work as a good T.V. president… Ya need a Harrison Ford for something like that… He barely pulls off the sage D.A. role…..
I hope this play of Thompsons leads to a long career peddling junk on late night infotainment T.V…..maybe pushing skin creme or wrinkle reduction crap…….JD
Just imagine how sick he looks WITHOUT his makeup.
Thompson is a phony and his policies are dangerous. If you watch the whole interview, he peddles the same BS about his pickup truck (driven by a staffer before and after campaign stops while rich Thompson drove his Lexus) and he also offered a dangerously simplistic “good guys and bad guys,” “civilized”-and-not folks dichotomy.

Batocchio @ 19:
Republic voters only care about the image, not the reality.
Tell them Fred is a rich lobbyiest, not some truck-driving local, and their
eyes glase over.
Tell them “He’s just like Reagan” and they start drooling and wet their pants.
Pathetic.
He just lost the state of New Hampshire just to plug The Tonight Show.
Patthemokey @ 8:
Gawd, that was awful.
I’d say all hat no cattle, but “all jowls no teeth” seems more appropriate. :)

hollywood fred is just what this country needs, a former lobbyist, a man that slept thru his time in the senate, then left to work as an actor (corporations pay attention!! *hint* he will do an excellent job of looking into the camera and acting like his policy decisions are for the best interests of the public. believably, mind you, as he is a good actor), and then was completely indecisive and apathetic at running for the presidency…
yeah, just what the country needs…
/sarcasm off
But does he smell good?
When I closed my eyes and listened I was reminded of a cross between a bible saleman, a wholesale paint dealer and a tollkeeper on the turnpike.
Free Aqua-Velva for the kiddies!
WashStateBlue @ 21:
I wonder how that is any different than Democrats calling Bill Clinton and Barack Obama ‘rock stars’. No drooling going on with them I take it?
dennis @ 30:
There is no sin in admiration…..so long as there is some basis in reality. There is with President Clinton, and Senator O’Bama…..not so much with this fake tool

miss_kitty @ 27:
Whatever he’s slathered on it’s to cover the old guy smell…
Can hardly wait to see more pics of him and his young wife…
Yeech….
A pox on those vid posters upstream who didn`t post sensitive stomach warnings …
… like I`m doing now, for this. And now I must hurl, because no one hates G&S more than I do.
Vitam Vas @ 31:
He is a real tool.
Riveting! He is oozing charisma! Theres your next prez America.
Separated at birth?

Dear God, he’s on CNN right now. He’s very ill.
baby jesus has been working on this missing chromosome problem,
but was unable to help Freddie
dilly @ 35:
He’s oozing… but I’m pretty sure thats not charisma!
I have an announcement: Fred Thompson is a BORE. He is also bor-ing.
dennis @ 30:
Duuuuuude, your cognitive dissonance is deafening…
Sweet. Next time I’m having a hard time sleeping, I can just pop in this snooze-fest. Hollywoood Fred has the intellect of a toilet seat, and the insight of a glof ball.
New Depends — absorbs twice as much charisma!
ldzppln @ 13:
Fred hasn’t announced yet. He is announcing the he will soon announce, that he will announce at a later date.
Deputy Dawg.
Rethugs are pitiful.
Legalize @ 42:
Hey, watch your mouth, fella.
That’s a dastardly slur against toilet seats and golf balls.
Weaseldog @ 44:
Frederick of Hollywood is just a little behind the curve, their campaign will announce shortly that they are already making plans for his victory party on Election Day, November 31, 2008.
Ok I gotta say does he have makeup on? is that how “well” he looks with makeup ? good lord, somebody give him a transfusion…seriously he looks too ill to run….like someone just woke him from his nap….or he needs a nap…I would pay $5 to see him and Ron Paul debate though….( he actually looks older than McCain…and that is saying something..)
Just back from lunch with a group of my friends(even tho many are Repigs) and we
disCUSSed Freddie. Could not believe what I was hearing…”they” said that Freddie
was sooo presidential(based upon his acting in L&O, and movies); he was a “father-like”
image; has a nice deep voice; in nice and tall; and that he would be better than most
of the other Repig candidates. Also, “they” informed me that his likeability and character
will go over extremely well in the South(mentioning Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi,
and S. Carolina). Wow…had no idea that a presidential candidate must meet such low standards in order to receive the nomination..at least in the Repig Party. Could not believe
what I was hearing, but then these are the same, exact, identical people who voted for
bush-lite.
If being a ponderous, self-important bore were a qualification for the presidency, Fred would be leading the field by 50 points.
I’ll vote for him only if Pauly Shore agrees to run for VP
Lapdog Leno lets any Pug on to spread their propaganda swill.
The cowardly chickenhawk Dennis Miller was on days before that to promote his new 3 hour hatefest on AM talk radio. What a fat pig.
Lapdog Leno couldn’t lap it up fast enough and there was drool coming from the corners of his mouth.
So actor Fred Thompson makes the decision, big whoop..
A HOMO CAPITALIST AUTHORITARIAN ASSHOLE INTERVIEWING
A LAZY HOMO FASCIST DIRT BAG.
