TPM:
Fred Thompson said Saturday he's not consumed with winning the White House and that a president with too much fire in the belly is not necessarily a good thing in a dangerous world.
"I like to say that I'm only consumed by very, very few things and politics is not one of them," Thompson said at a town hall meeting in nearby Burlington. "The welfare of my country and my kids and grandkids are one of them. But if people really want in their president a super type-A personality, someone who has gotten up every morning and gone to bed every night thinking about for years how they could achieve the presidency of the United States, someone who could look you straight in the eye and say they enjoy every minute of campaigning — I ain't that guy."

ROFLMAO!!!!! Earth to Gramps, so why the hell are you running?
Thanks for playing, but take your ball and go home now, you're wasting everyone's time.
Time for Grampa to call his agent and start looking for a job. The good news is the writers are still on strike. Now put the word out former Law/Order Fred is looking for a job. I did notice Fred got no support from Hollywood, let's hope he's not on the out list like Arnie.
