It’s the question that dare not speak its name.
Has the cancer Fred Thompson’s doctor said was "in remission" several months ago now come back, with a vengeance?
I’m not involved in this. I’m a Democrat. I have friends and relatives who have had cancer, some of whom have come back strong, others of whom have passed on. This is not a political point.
But for a political reporter, it is a question which demands to be asked.
Yet it isn’t.
If Thompson’s cancer is back it would explain a lot. He’s gone in four
months from being "Frederick of Hollywood" to "Grandpa Fred" among the
blognescenti. His fundraising started strong, but has fallen quickly.
He has made few public appearances. He showed up at the Iowa State Fair
last week on a golf cart.
Then there is how he looked on that golf cart. Stricken. Thin. Frail.
Skin pulled off the face like a cadaver. Much older than his 64 years.
That’s what chemotherapy does. It kills you, in the hopes that cancer
cells, being weaker as they’ve focused solely on reproduction, will die
off while the rest of the body survives. It’s the ultimate gunfight at
the O.K. corral, and it’s going on right now, in millions of beds
around this country, people staring down the barrel of death through a
needle drip.
It’s tragic, frightening, ennobling, and far too often it’s all in vain.
God bless Fred Thompson if he does have cancer, but if people are
decide on a President he should at least have some of the grace and
courage of Elizabeth Edwards.
Sorry Dana, but I heard today that Thompson’s cancer was in remission and he’s doing great. But nice try. Guess you’ll still have to contend with Thompson in the general election.

I think he is hiding a relapse. Of course like in all things, dont expect a straight honest answer out of him about it.

Wow it doesn’t take long for the bottom feeders to come out. Nice try Dana. You and that lowlife Levin must had come from the same mold. Can’t wait to see how miss Hillary holds up when Slick Willies current girlfriends around the world come out to bite him in the….. well you know.
Why are Dem’s so afraid of Fred?? Should be fun to watch!!!

“FRaud Thompson” is a notorious troll so you can ignore her.
Anyway, Fred doesn’t look any different now than he did earlier this year. That other picture you have is from years ago, so it’s not a fair comparison.
I think you owe the senator an apology

MiaT has done extensive research on the lymphoma timeline. I suggest all the paid Freepers crawl back under their rock and stop covering up for Fred Thompson. America has a right to know.
http://www.wideawakes.net/forum/comments. php?DiscussionID=13058&page=4 – 104k –
Questions I want answered from Fred…and you Freepers are kidding yourself if you think they are going away!
1. Payouts to his son from his previous PAC.
2. His pro-abortion lobbying
3. Who is really running his campaign
5. His wife and her sketchy yet to pay off judgments past ( i mean come one..you are millionaires for christs sake…just pay off your debts)
6. Why Spencer Jihad Abraham (unless he too has quit)
7. Speaking of quiting, why is everyone leaving your campaign in droves?
8. Full disclosure on his health
9. Skirting the CFR rules he helped make law.

Wow Dana, I knew not what a wingnut following you have, I guess you’re doing something right,er, I should say “correct”.
I too think that Thompson’s cancer has returned, which would also explain his lackluster appearance schedule and lack of committing to run. Not that it would make much difference in a field of candidates in the loser patrol. Thanks as always for your stellar reportage.

I’m an ardent Ron Paul supporter and in the past have said some things that were nasty and critical of Fred Thompson. Although I know his past and don’t believe he is what this country needs in the White House, I apologize for those remarks. I had an inkling that he might be sick. My father died of lung cancer and he was 64 when he passed. It is an ugly, horrible thing to deal with. God Bless Fred Thompson and his family. He is in my prayers.
