Do the Freddie
DON SURBER BLOG
The Knoxville newspaper (poor town only has one) got Freddie Thompson's son, Tony, to spill the beans on family secrets. Freddie was married to Tony's mom for 26 years, ending in 1985. She's now Sarah Knestrick, having remarried.

Guess what? Her new husband, Walter, is a campaign contributor.

Said Tony Thompson:

"That's not surprising. No. 1, Walter has been a longtime supporter of Republican causes. No. 2, he knows my dad. My dad, he and my mother have a decent relationship."

Freddie Thompson seems to keep his exes happy. Lorrie Morgan, Georgie Mosbacher and Margaret Carlson all showed support when talking to the Times of London. That says a lot about a man.

Reminds me of that old 1950s song, "Sitting in the Backseat":

Keep you mind on your drivin'
Keep you hands on the wheel
Keep your snoopy eyes on the road ahead
We're havin' fun sittin' in the back seat kissin' and a'huggin with Fred.

Sigh.

Hat tip: My Hurricane bureau chief.

UPDATE: My South Hills bureau chief weighs in with "WV coal miners need Fred."
