  • Fred Thompson's Retort Likens Obama to a Dog at a Fire Hydrant-Confirmed Authorship! Fred Thompson’s Retort Likens Obama to a Dog at a Fire Hydrant- Confirmed Authorship! Summary of eRumor: This is a forwarded email about a comment made by Former GOP presidential candidate, Fred Thompson, in response to President Obama saying that his Washington DC critics talk about him, like a dog. The email alleges that Thompson replied, Maybe it’s because he keeps treating this country like a fire hydrant. The Truth: Fred Thompson wrote this and sent it out on Twitter (@FredThompson) to members on his subscription list on September 7, 2010. The former Tennessee Senator compared President Obama’s treatment of Americans to a dog urinating on a fire hydrant after Obama strayed from his prepared remarks to talk about his critics in a Labor Day speech at a Laborfest event in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on September 6, 2010. The President said, Some powerful interests who had been dominating the agenda in Washington for a very long time and they’re not always happy with me. They talk about me like a dog. That’s not in my prepared remarks, but it’s true. Thompson tweeted, Obama: some people in DC ‘talk about me like a dog’. Maybe it’s because he keeps treating this country like a fire hydrant. updated 10/03/2010 Posted in Politics (en)
