Fred Thompson Caught Unawares About Everglades Oil Drilling Debate

You can read the entire story here. Quotes below:

Republican presidential hopeful Fred Thompson seemed taken by surprise when asked Tuesday about oil drilling in the Everglades, apparently unaware it's been a major Florida issue.Before answering, he laughed at the question.

"Gosh, no one has told me that there's any major reserves in the Everglades, but maybe that's one of the things I need to learn while I'm down here," Thompson said after talking over state issues with Gov. Charlie Crist.

Fred is not informed. I guess "gosh" is enough for Fred and his supporters. How long with a "gosh" work for America?
