On this slow news day-- a somewhat mournful Independence Day two days after the mask of constitutional government slipped off Bush's smug face to expose the brutal GOP fascist beast beneath, the Boston Globe unmasks the real Fred Thompson.
Thompson made his bones working as a lawyer for Tennessee Republican Howard Baker during the impeachment hearing for the only American president held in as much disdain as the currently unimpeached one. But, now it turns out that Thompson was a spy, or a secret mole, for the Nixon criminal clique in the White House.
Underhanded deceptions? Two-timing? Serving more than one master? No wonder the current GOP views Thompson as some great Presidential hope.
