Fred Thompson - New Government Programs Explained
I wasn't sure whether to put this in comedy or the soapbox - the message uses biting humor to convey its message.

Fred does have a flair and presence I really like. Where was that flair a year ago?

That was my thought as well.
Perhaps one day we will why it never came together for Fred. Just a shame, IMHO.

Make no mistake. Fred is basically a mere attorney who got into acting, and; he is not much more then the ZERO. He is no damn real businessman like Corker. Fred also keeps company with snobs.
