The Democratic Party has successfully convinced the minority masses in the Hispanic community of their deep desire to lift them out of poverty. Liberal policies of forced equality and equal outcome, hurting the rich and sympathizing with the plight of the poor, have given Democrats the political influence that has turned the Hispanic community into an accessory that they often wear around their political neck during election time -- sparkling for everyone to see their...

Go figure! Who is this group anyway? Under the radar this week I also see, according to Life Decisions International, that AARP made their list of "Dishonorable Mention" there too. That means that they are in a group of charitable groups that are associated with Planned Parenthood and/or its agenda.

There are close to one million (960,000 to be exact) Palin items available. Palin is in a league all her own as compared to the 685,000 items for Hillary Clinton and mere 386,000 for Vice President Joe Biden. (You know that has to kill him.) Expect to see the Palin products keep rising as she promotes her book… Politico http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2382840/posts#comment Tue, 10 Nov 2009 11:35:57 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2382831/posts A recent poll has shown that only 20% of our citizens consider themselves as being Liberal. In realizing that perhaps only a single digit percentage of these Liberals would consider themselves on the Far Left, how can we now find ourselves being governed by the most liberal administration and Congress in our 233-year old history?

For starters, why did the FBI react the way they did with what they knew? At least six months ago, Hasan came to the attention of law enforcement officials because of Internet postings about suicide bombings and other threats, including posts that equated suicide bombers to soldiers who throw themselves on a grenade to save the lives of their comrades. Investigators had not determined for certain whether Hasan was the author of the posting, and a formal investigation had not been opened before the shooting, said law...

Since the Mumbai attacks counter-terrorism planning has seen a major shift. Those charged with thwarting or reacting to future terror attacks were alarmed by Mumbai. The shootings in Afghanistan and Fort Hood carry echoes of the atttacks in India with the added danger that the enemy has come from within. The new-style of attack relies not on the...

You know the health care reform bill is in trouble when even self-proclaimed "Progressives" (aka: liberals) are worried about the mammoth bill's cost and its effect on the already out-of-control budget deficit.

But their deaths did not come at the hand of foreign fighters on some far-flung battlefield. They came on the American Homeland. But where is the outrage? Do we hear the clamor of the American “elites” from Hollywood or Washington or Wall Street? We hear nothing. We hear the deafening silence of those that still think 9/11 was some terrible hangover from the liberal idealism that they touted in the bars the night before. www.politicalcastaway.com http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2382760/posts#comment Tue, 10 Nov 2009 05:10:23 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2382754/posts Vanity Self http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2382754/posts#comment Tue, 10 Nov 2009 05:01:19 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2382748/posts Here are some details of the upcoming book tour. I’m starting in Michigan, and you’ll understand why when you read the book. Last year, I made a promise to the good people of Michigan that I would be back, and now I’m keeping that promise. (Michigan is near and dear to my family’s heart! Our eldest son, Track, lived with a great host family there during his hockey days.) From Michigan, the “Going Rogue” tour will cover as much of the country as possible. I’ve decided to stop in cities that are not usually included in a typical book tour....

I would say the results are actually much better for Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin typically has a much larger margin of victory against the three respectable but boring Huckabee, Romney & Gingrich. But a win is still a win. I thought it was interesting what Huckabee had to say about Sarah Palin...

But shame on me for thinking such a thing, right? (Yeah, those of us who immediately thought that the murderer, given the circumstances, had to be a Muslim, we’re the bad guys.)

Colonel Allen B. West (US Army, ret.) about the Ft. Hood terrorist attack, a phrase arrested my attention: "The Saudis are not our friends and any American political figure who believes such is delusional." It took my mind back to the days when I was hosting a commentary show on MSNBC. I remember on several occasions presenting thoughts based on the theme, 'the Saudis are not our friends.' (Not long after came the events that led to the demise of the show.) And that was before the current corrupt Party system produced an...

Even as the House of Representatives was preparing to pass the most blatantly unconstitutional assault on America’s freedom in Congressional history, Frum found something really outrageous to write about: Matthew Continetti’s admiring essay on Sarah Palin’s populist appeal. It’s a good thing Frum has his priorities in order. We wouldn’t want Palin to get into office and drop a few trillion dollars of unsustainable debt on us. Frum...

The land of - baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet. The land of the free and the home of the brave. A country where its citizens felt safe and happy and proud to proclaim, “God bless America!” It seems like those noble ideals which made our country strong and great are fast slipping away and being replaced by the strange and bizarre.

The Milwaukee talk radio personality hosted a Wisconsin Right to Life fund-raiser headlined by the former Alaskan governer and GOP vice presidential candidate before a packed house at State Fair Expo Center on Friday. The price of admission included a T-shirt that says it all: "America's Conservative Conscience." Palin made news recently for putting "principle over party," a radical notion for some.

In 1939 the McDonald White declaration was a reversal of the Belfour declaration because the Britts were beholding to the 80 million islamists who rejected the immigration of Jews to Palastine. The extermination and persecution of Jews by Hitler had started and some were attempting to escape to the Holy land. Noteworthy is at that time there were 400.000 Arabs in Palastine and 80,000 Jews. Thanks to the Britts who blockaded the entries to Palastine, 6 million European Jews were slaughtered. All to appease...
