I love this. From Jawa Report, another Fred Head. About the meaning of the 2nd Amendment beyond the right to bare arms.
On the subject of Fred, go to www.pollingreport.com. I think the media blackout on Thompson, other than to mention from time to time that his campaign is faltering and he has no support, and is lazy is about one of th biggest cases of media malpractice I have ever witnessed. Look at the polls. Thompson is almost always second or third, usually a strong second or within the margin of error for 3rd. I mean he really is a strong candidate, with plenty of support. For those of you on the right who are undecided, think about this, they tried to make Reagan out as a clown candidate as well. If the media flat out lies about his support (while focusing so much on the floundering Ron Paul campaign) then that is a great indication he is the biggest threat to the liberal media. That alone should tell you he is the right guy.
He is a consistent 2nd Amendment supporter, that means a lot to me.
UPDATE: Since some people (I call them liberals) wont take 5 minutes to do the research even when I provide a link (bloody morons), here are excerpts. These are the polls. I copied the first 2,3, or 4 polling periods from the lists becuase that was easiest (it is Thanksgiving and I have better things to do than fix moronic liberal brains). Yellow blocks are Thompson in second. As you can easily see, most recent polls have him in second or third, though still needs to catch Rudy.

It is hard to claim the media blackout card without grassroots support. The media is no more blacking out Thompson than they black out libertarian candidates every election cycle. I concur with 'mark' the poster above me. The other candidate you mention had a powerful grassroots movement that the media ignored and continues to ignore. Thompson had a powerful grassroots movement... that abandoned him when he turned out to be a terrible public speaker.
It was probably rather unfair to him, but it wasn't the media's fault.
