Fred Thompson, former U.S. senator and actor, dies in Tennessee

I loved him as the DA on the Law and Order shows

Honestly, I thought he was dead for years...

I liked Fred. Even met him, Baker, Alexander, and a bunch more at a w. Bush rally in a hangar at the Knoxville airport when Bush was running for POTUS.

RIP Fred.

Incredibly beloved in Tennessee. I wanted him to run for POTUS back in the day.

Happy trails.

He did run. Sort of. He announced as a candidate anyway.

 

[BlueRaider22]

Yep. Had to drop out due to his son's health if I'm not mistaken.

R.I.P. Fred Thompson

He had a nice role in one of my favorite movies:

The Hunt For Red October

I liked that dude. He had a radio show for a while as well. His sensibilities were pragmatic. I don't believe I ever heard him say anything that didn't speak for me as well. Hope he went quick and didn't suffer much.

Seemed like a level headed guy. R.I.P.
