Check out this video that Fred Thompson released in December. It’s an amusing, yet spot on, take on the economic situation. I highly recommend watching this.
And be sure to tune in tomorrow for a follow-up, which may surprise you.

On the surface, Thompson’s little video is entertaining. The problem is that, when I step back and examine it from a neutral perspective, it’s obvious that the Fred Thompson in the video bears zero resemblance to the Fred Thompson who ran for President. Maybe it’s 20/20 hindsight? That would be an overly kind assumption, I think. The points he makes are pertinent.The problem is that, based on his decades of public life, and his campaign rhetoric, we all know he doesn’t apparently believe any of this.
I posted this before reading your followup column on this. I also posted this not intending any disagreeable discourse about the topic. More to the point, I posted this to show what a hypocrite Fred Thompson is, and how – even when he gets it right, as in this case – he still doesn’t get it.
No ill will intended whatsoever. I’m just sayin’…

Thanks for the comments. I agree with you. He was consistently wrong during the campaign, but now has evidently seen the light.
