Thompson explains his anti-gay remark.

By Nico Pitney on May 12th, 2007 at 7:19 pm

Thompson explains his anti-gay remark.

“Tommy Thompson cited a dead hearing aid and an urgent need to use the bathroom in explaining on Saturday why he said at a GOP presidential debate that an employer should be allowed to fire a gay worker. Speaking to reporters after giving an address at the state GOP convention, Thompson also said he was suffering from the flu and bronchitis and had been admitted to a hospital emergency room three days prior to the May 3 debate.”

    Don’t play their game TT stand up 4 what’s right, be a man


  2. RUCerious says:

    He was sick, and his eyeballs were turning yellow??


  3. HeckuvahJob Brownie says:

    Sounds like a perfectly rationale explanation. Let’s move on to the next topic…


  4. Kate Henry says:

    Sure, that’s the truth. But, do we want a president who has dead batteries in his hearing aide who doesn’t go to the bathroom before participating in an hour long “debate”. Sound like he has some problems doing the things he needs to do. Not who I want to be my president. We’ve already suffered through 6 years of a dim-witted idiot as our President, we certainly don’t need another.


  5. veritas says:

    Tommy came across during the debate abysmally. He appeared stiff and totally out of touch. It’s small wonder he said what he said – god knows, it had nothing to do with a malfunctioning hearing aid or he would have made mention of that fact when the question was asked. Instead, he answered from his heart, albeit it corrupted and unaware of what the law is regarding discrimination, but he outed himself handily on this issue. This guy really believes that discrimination is permitted in the workplace. Maybe he resides on the same planet as The Chimp???


  6. veritas says:

    Tommy looked like the “walking dead” instead of just his battery being dead. He’s a total “deadbeat” and will be out of the race in a couple of months. Ta-ta Tommy!


  7. Badmoodman says:

    Tommy Thompson has the constitution of a geriatric on his deathbed. But hey, at least he’s got a constitution. {{rimshot}}


  8. CONservative says:

    You sure you didn’t leave any excuses out Tommy Boy?


  9. Caliph Garrett says:

    Shorter Tommy Thompson: I would have lied more convincingly about my homophobia if I hadn’t had a dead hearing aid, the flu, spastic colon, the heartbreak of psoriasis, etc.


  10. VerbalKint says:

    Republicans make excuses for everything. Wussies.


  11. RUCerious says:

    Mr Thompson just presided over the sad wake of his presidential aspirations.

    Drinking cheap beer by the gallon will do that, tommy


  13. Tommy Thompson's Cat says:

    He also left the tea kettle on the stove, forgot to walk the dog, left the water running, and forgot to feed me.


  14. Tom3 says:

    After bashing gays, Tommy has a sudden urge to cruise the men’s room. LOL!


  15. VerbalKint says:

    Rudy killed his candidacy this week too.


  16. RUCerious says:

    Gotta remember this for the next time I screw up at work.

    Hearing aid low on battery (don’t wear one, but maybe the boss won’t notice)

    Had to hurry so as not to wet myself.

    My flu has bronchitis.

    Did I leave anything out?

    Am I so fired?

    Plus, there was an earthquake, too much starch in his undies, a full moon, it was actually someone who just looked like him, KKKarl Rove made him say it, Bill Clinton did it too, and besides, everyone knows we all hate fags.

    Now we know why Rush Limpbaugh is such a bigot.

  32. DM says:

    Thompson never had a chance of course. His party knows it, we know it, and – this may surprise you – he knows it too. So why would he run? Because Wisconsin is a swing state.

    Well, I lost that debate, and have nothing of merit to counter punch with, so I’ll rely on my frequent standby…
    “neener neener neeeeener, Lisa’s get a big ole butt, yah know it’s true”

    The “Pres.” seems to be losing it.

    Please Gov Thompson, PLEASE — stop digging!!


  38. ScrewBush says:

    I assume when you sign up to be a GOPer the first question is whether or not you have any self respect. We can see Tommy answered that one correctly.


  39. Granola Hippy says:

    Wow, can he seriously not think of a better excuse. It’d be more witty if he blamed it on his evil twin, jeez.


  40. smafdy says:

    and his dog had just died, and he had a flat tire, and his feet hurt, and he was hypoglycemic, and he had spilled coffee on his best trousers, and the sun was in his eyes, he had once been forced to listen to Libarace, and his underwear was riding up the crack of his ass, and he had just slammed his “johnson” in the door for the third time that day…


  41. Granola Hippy says:

    …and he had just slammed his “johnson” in the door for the third time that day…

    Comment by smafdy

    I hate it when that happens!


  42. Mistress Z says:

    #40 – smafdy

    Any two of those would have been more acceptable than those the former Gov came up with.

    That campaign is mercifully over…..


  43. smafdy says:

  44. Tommy T. says:

    THE real excuse ……I was given a thorough rectal exam at the hospital and enjoyed it.

    I’m sooo ashamed,………………..and angry at the gays


  45. curmudgeon says:

    Thompson’s excuses are clearly an unsophisticated attempt to create a diversion, and as usual, it appears that the Associated Press has transcribed the damage control message of the Thompson campaign verbatim. A review of the debate transcript (which the AP writer obviously didn’t bother to do)reveals that (by my count, at least),the comments about employers having the right to fire gay workers was the third of ten times that Thompson spoke at any length during the debate, and occurred well before the halfway point. I could not find a single instance where Thompson asked the moderator to repeat a question, which would be expected if he was truly unable to hear well. So, are we expected to believe that someone who is ill, has a non-functioning hearing aid, and has to go to the bathroom so badly that he can’t think straight can continue for more than an additional half hour, directly responding to another seven opportunities to speak? If anyone reading this watched the debate, did he make a beeline offstage as soon as the debate concluded, which would be expected if his claims of dire biological need were true, especially after well over a half hour without relief? My read is that he is attempting to substitute a medical problem for an honesty problem. And, regrettably, the masses are likely to accept the AP article (aka transcription) as written without question. As Thomas Jefferson stated many years ago, “The price of freedom is eternal vigilence.” A question we all need to ask ourselves is whether we are willing to pay that price. If not, I fear for our country’s future.


  46. barfly says:

    Let’s review the video tape. Was he doing the Pee-Pee Dance?


  47. Granola Hippy says:

    I think this might be some kind of tactic. Maybe he thinks that if he demonstrates just how terrible he is at lying he’ll make people think they can trust him.

    Or some shit.


  48. the republic of stupidity says:

    Granola Hippy, you’re giving the man too much credit. He’s an idiot, pure and simple. Leave it at that.


  49. smafdy says:

    …no matter how bad he had to go, he refused to use a public restroom until everyone else had left. You never know, one of the other guys might have tried to get a look at his “thompson”. Wouldn’t want that – I’d rather succumb to Tycho Brahe disease (look it up).


  50. John Gilpins says:

    Such a potty mouth! Such an ass! Shame on you!

    In future presidential debates, I know we can D-E-P-E-N-D on Mr. Thompson to coherently explain such bigoted, potty mouth statements.

    Wearing DEPEND DIAPERS will be a great “ASS”-et to Mr. Thompson’s presidential aspirations.


  51. JPark says:

    Oh, please Tommy, drop out and shut up. At least when you were an embarassment as our governor (I will never understand why you were elected 4 times), it didn’t affect the whole countries view of Wisconsin. I am mortified. It is almost as embarassing as being from Texas.


  52. Granola Hippy says:

    48

    Wasn’t serious


  53. Mr. President says:

    What were we doing when we unchained this earth from the sun?


  54. the republic of stupidity says:

    I wasn’t being serious either. And the man is clearly an idiot.


  55. Republicans are the Fear and Smear Party says:

    I watched the debate and I didn’t see Thompson do a pee-pee dance and I never saw him ask anyone to repeat a question or ask anyone what their question meant. Are we supposed to believe that he didn’t empty his bladder before the debate? If we are supposed to believe him, then his excuse for giving a bigoted answer reveals that he’d rather bash gays (a safe answer in republican circles) than admit he didn’t hear the question or that he needed to take a break. These type of excuses could be disasterous for America if he is elected president, possibly even more disasterous than Bush’s.


  56. Ben B says:

    Ha ha ha.

    1) Bad hearing aid
    2) Need for bathroom
    3) Flu
    4) Bronchitis
    5) Hospital a few days earlier

    Memo to Mr. Retard: it’s more believable if you stick to one excuse rather than try to sell every excuse you can think of.

    The bottom line is that you honestly think it’s okay for a private business to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation. Thanks for playing, but good bye.


  57. Jay Randal says:

    Oh brother what a lame bunch of excuses. Thompson must drop out of the presidential race in disgrace and never run for political office again.


  58. paul says:

    Tommy used every excuse, but “my dog ate my homework”. He had to get to the bathroom urgently and piss his presidental aspirations down the toilet.


  59. JPark says:

    Jay, Tommy Thompson is a moron. I am sure you have figured that out but many of us in WI have known it for years. He is a dolt.


  60. JPark says:

    Paul, Tommy calls it the porcelain goddess. Well, I guess that is one thing we have in common.


  61. dlet says:

    Thompson also said he was suffering from the flu and bronchitis and had been admitted to a hospital emergency room three days prior to the May 3 debate.

    And…um…let me get this straight. This is a guy who is trying to become the President of the United States of America. Someone who lapses into idiocy because he feels a little ill. Great. Perfect. Great to know. See ya later.


  62. JPark says:

    dlet, he is awfully Bushlike in his screwups. I think the great white right would overwhelmingly vote for him.


  63. dlet says:

    JPark,
    Well you are correct. He is somewhat like Bushie….but Bushie doesn’t need to be sick to be an idiot. He just needs idiots to believe him.


  64. Kilo says:

    Thompson explains his anti-gay remark.

    He answered “yes” to a question.
    Gee how did the FCC let an anti-gay remark that vulgar go to air.


  65. dlet says:

    Kilo,
    I think the answer was a little longer than just a “yes”.

    The question at the debate was, “If a private employer finds homosexuality immoral, should he be allowed to fire a gay worker?”

    Thompson replied: “I think that is left up to the individual business. I really sincerely believe that that is an issue that business people have got to make their own determination as to whether or not they should be.”


  66. JPark says:

    dlet, believe me, I have been subjected to this moron for a couple of decades. He doesn’t need to be sick (or drunk) to be a moron…but it helps.


  67. JPark says:

    Kilo, what? Anti-gay isn’t against FCC regs. Thanks, though.


  68. dlet says:

    Thompson replied: “I think that is left up to the individual business. I really sincerely believe that that is an issue that business people have got to make their own determination as to whether or not they should be.”

    Kilo. Apply this statement to Blacks, Mexicans, Women, Homosexuals, etc and guess what you have……..the Republican Party. Racism, bigotry, illegal activity…whatever you want to call it.


  69. dlet says:

    Thompson explains his anti-gay remark.

    No. Not really. I am waiting for the “I’m just a moron.” explanation. Then I will be satisfied.


  70. JPark says:

    dlet, more like “I was drunk off my a$$. You really can’t blame me. Were all winners now!!!!”


  71. Kilo says:

    Kilo. Apply this statement to Blacks, Mexicans, Women, Homosexuals, etc and guess what you have

    Only one legitimate example.
    The rest already certainly have legal protection from this type of descrimination.

    I noticed though when this came up last time everyone complained about Christian groups seeking an exemption that would allow them to discriminate against gays by not hiring them.

    This is what it looks like when that concession isn’t given to one small employer who’s moral grounds are the only reason they exist. The laws for all businesses don’t pass without this.

    I was actually under the impression that sexual pref was included in workplace discrimination laws, but there you go.


  72. JPark says:

    Inside Wisconsin joke, I guess. “We’re all winners now!!” is from Tommy’s drunken speech after the Packer Superbowl in ‘96.


  73. JPark says:

    Kilo, where do you live? Discrimination laws are less enforced than immigration laws.


  74. Kilo says:

    Kilo, I think the answer was a little longer than just a “yes”.

    Hey I watched the Bill Maher segment where they said he just answered yes instead of no.

    Queue the “oh that’s so typical for a republican like Kilo to be watching Bill Maher” idiots.


  75. JPark says:

    No, Kilo, you are not an idiot because you watched Maher…you are just…


  76. Kilo says:

    I guess(not surprisingly) that you have missed the point. The examples I gave include the groups of people the Republican Party has historically fought against because of their innate bigotry and discriminatory standards. The “one” example you choose to follow up on is just the latest. Good luck with that one, hater.


  78. james k. sayre says:

    Thanks to posters and commenters one and all here today and tonight: Republicans are such as source of unintentional humor these days. Is there some way to convert GOP blather into an alternative energy source? Want a few cheap laughs? Just listen to a Republican, any Republican will do these days…

    Tommy Thompson? That name sounded vaguely familiar… I guess that I’m not keeping up with all the ten little Republiican Idiots (running to replace Bush and his gang of gangsters, currently holed up in the WH), sitting in a row. Sounds like Tommy T. is in need of a few Health and Human Services himself… Why can’t elderly old Republicans just try enjoying their “Golden Years” at home, instead of trying to run for public office? Geeze, don’t they realize that progessive bloggers are a really tough audience?

    The moral of this story is obvious: never trust a person whose first and last names start with the same letter. It is a curse from their parents that can never be completely erased: Tommy Thompson, Sally Stanford, Herbert Hoover… I rest my case…

    Yes, I’m that particular American/Laplander, who instead uses an Australian dictionary, Australian slang, posts exclusively on Australian time, and never posts about the same issues that guy does.
    You’re a genius.

    You mean in a way that doesn’t express support for them. Right.

    So NOW we’ve confirmed you’re a pedophile. Took a suspiciously short period of time too.

    Well no, not without some indication of WTF that’s supposed to mean.

    It’s pretty simple to figure out that if I’ve been posting here for months and every day my posts start at about 1am, that either I’m on the night shift at the sardine factory in Helsinki or whereever or I’m a little further away than 3 timezones.

    That mysterious somewhere else on the planet that uses an Australian english dictionary, and where they know what water restrictions Australians are currently under. Hmmm where could that be….

  98. JPark says:

    Kilo, you said you post specifically on Aussie time. When exactly is Aussie time?


  99. JPark says:

    By the way, Kilo. You don’t use an Aussie dictionary. Because you are not an Aussie.

    Hehe, Shane, you are getting under Seixon’s skin.

    JPark, I’m sure he believes in the golden rule or karma so he knows he has it coming.

    Comment by JPark — May 13, 2007 @ 1:15 am

    Because you’ve never looked. Because before deciding one poster is another you never bothered to check whether there was any similarity between the two or what the characteristics of either were.
    In short, because you’re not intelligent enough to make such assessments.

    Kilo, you said you post specifically on Aussie time. When exactly is Aussie time?
    Comment by JPark — May 13, 2007 @ 1:54 am

    That makes less sense than your previous question that I quoted when explaining this.

    I assume you don’t know what’s being discussed but want to pose questions anyway so that you can pretend that you do. Or you’re one of those Americans who’s knowledge of geography ends at your border.

    By the way, Kilo. You don’t use an Aussie dictionary. Because you are not an Aussie. Comment by JPark — May 13, 2007 @ 1:55 am

    Again, you don’t even know what this means do you ?
    No, you’re right genius. I just consistantly misspell the same words from American and British english dictionaries in a way that’s strangely consistant with the Australian English dictionary.

    Which leads to the interesting conclusion by the sleuths here that I’m in the Netherlands. Based on something other than what I write about, how I write it or when I write it. Being all available evidence.

    Oh and concluding that I’m “Sexion”, as opposed to “Tank”, who did use the same language, spelling, posting times, etc etc here for quite a while.

    But as we know, I’m not Australian, so that other Australian who says the same things I do on the same topics I do using the same spelling and phrases as me isn’t me.
    I’m the Swedish guy. Cause you know, I’m always posting about halibut and stuff.
    FFS already you amatuers.

    Thank God Almighty that if elected President, hearing aid batteries will be supplied by the taxpayer, and there’ll be no further need to take a piss once the Presidential Catheter is implanted. What a buffoon.

    Good Morning All!!

    I am from Wisconsin and Tommy Thompson ruin our state financially. I am so glad this jerk is not governor of the state of WI. He will never, never, never be President of the United States. He is dreaming.

    I like Bill Richardson or John Edwards. I hope is that either one of them will be the Dems nomination. It is to early to pick a candidate. They should of started the Presidency campaign in the fall.
