Fred Thompson Makes a Funny!

Who decided it was a good idea for political figures to have Twitter accounts?
Even marginal figures like Fred Thompson should probably leave the teen-based technology alone.

Because here's the sort of thing that Fred Thompson thinks his followers might enjoy reading:
(Oh, God. Fred Thompson has followers!!!!)

Ahahahaha!!!!! Oh, my God, Fred, that was so so so funny.

See, it's funny because, um. . . well, I 'm not sure why it's funny.

I guess the idea is, see, if that tennis player was in charge of interrogations, all we'd have to do is challenge the terrorists to a tennis match , and then the guy would hit such a good shot that the terrorist's ankles would break, and then we could ask him questions, and he'd be all like "Death to Amer. . .oh, fuck it, my ankle hurts, here's where Bin Laden's hiding."

Or, I don't know, maybe it's just funny when some lady that you don't like for some reason experiences a painful injury? Maybe that's it. Oh, Fred Thompson, what a clever, witty man you must be!
