Thompson is in...finally.

Fred Thompson makes it official by skipping a debate and making an appearance on the Tonight Show starring that useless bootlicker Jay Leno.
I'm not quite sure what if anything Fred Thompson brings to the GOP presidential primary contest.
He had a perfectly forgettable record in the US Senate.
He may be a Hollywood actor, but he has a face like a mangy old shoe.
He offers little at variance with the other yaps in the race...he never saw a tax cut he didn't like, he is critical of President Bush but can't think of reason one to get out of Iraq, he hates liberals, and Thompson thinks the AEI is divinely inspired.
Not much there to work with.
He also had this to say:
"Our basic rights come from God and not from government,"
Doesn't that pretty much say it all?
If our rights come from God, it follows in that the Godly (in the sheer Cromwellian sense of the term) ought to be given special powers & privileges to "protect" those rights.
Or so the reasoning goes on the other side of the fence.
