Fred Thompson
We just ask the agency to make reasonable and honest decisions, and the public deserves no less.
Fred Thompson
This country has shed more blood for the freedom of other people than all the other nations in the history of the world combined, and I'm tired of people feeling like they've got to apologize for America.
Fred Thompson
Roe v. Wade was bad law and bad medical science.

It's going to be hard to go back again. It's going to be hard to take away stuff. It's not impossible.
Fred Thompson
Russians don't take a dump, son, without a plan.
Fred Thompson

Fred Thompson
Standing up here 10 in a row, you know, like a bunch of seals waiting for somebody to throw you the next fish, is not necessarily the best way to impart your information to the American people.
