As you can tell by my sidebar, gentle reader, I support Fred Thompson’s bid for the presidency and probably will far after he’s either elected or withdrawn–I don’t update the sidebar much these days.
However, today I sent a check to the campaign for the first time, putting my money where my blog is.
It’s the first money I’ve sent since 2000, when I backed a candidate who was not nominated. I haven’t sent much to the Republican Party or its committees in recent years, no matter how much of a gold-card member they would like me to be. But I’ve sent money to Fred, and if/when I can scrape up any more extraneous cash, I will send more.
You can, too, using the sidebar or going to the Contribute page which has a credit card form and a poor PDF for mailing checks.
It’s more than this cross-dressing Klingon, apparently.
But let it be known my support has its threshold: I won’t work the phone banks for Fred or any campaign.
I sent a little love to Fred last week. First political contribution, (outside of the Swifties) I’ve ever made.
