Fred is calling for more spending....thinking.......



GOP presidential candidate Fred Thompson argued Tuesday for increased military spending and said soldiers fighting in Iraq need better equipment and effective leaders.

"We're going to have to spend more money for the kind of threats, the old kind and the new kind," Thompson said. "We're going to have to have a larger military, we're going to have to work closer with our allies."

Thompson made his comments on the fourth day of a visit to Iowa, where the presidential campaign's leadoff caucuses are scheduled for January. He mixed support for the Iraq war with criticism of how it has been conducted.

Everytime Thompson speaks, it goes over like a lead balloon and hits with a deafening thud.

Thompson is turning out to be a joke compared to all the hype he got.

Want a good laugh? With all his bone head remarks and lack of enthusiasm he is still in 3rd palce and in some polls even 2nd. There is the intelligence of the voter.
