RUSH: I have to say to anybody from the Fred Thompson campaign listening out there: I have to correct something that appeared yesterday in an article at the National Ledger: ‘Fred Thompson Slammed by AP: ‘Style over Substance\u2019 — Fred Thompson must have someone very nervous. An Associated Press hit piece borrows a phrase from conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh and claims that Fred Thompson is all style and no substance. The lede: ‘Fred Thompson\u2019s easygoing, no-nonsense style is clearly his strength and undoubtedly has helped him soar in presidential polls. It may only get him so far.\u2019 Now, the National Ledger is not the author of the story. The AP is. They\u2019re just recounting it. But I have said ‘style over substance.\u2019 What I have said is ‘symbolism over substance.\u2019 That has been the phrase. I\u2019m stunned that anybody at the Drive-By Media would remember that I ever used the phrase. I used it in conjunction with the creation of the phrase, ‘Words mean things.\u2019 So the way this thing is written, it could make it sound like I\u2019m the one saying he\u2019s got no substance, and I haven\u2019t said a thing about that! So I just wanted to correct the record. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
