    Alan Grayson's recent self indulgent behavior has paralyzed his ability to serve as an advocate for the citizens of Central Florida. On December 16th 2009, the day on which the Sons of Liberty dumped 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor, Central Floridians will again say no to the overreaching government intrusion propagated by Grayson. Central Floridians will drop a money bomb to show Grayson and Pelosi that an oppressive, overreaching government has not and never will be what makes America great. Pledge your support today, so that Grayson is defeated.

    As I came out of the supermarket that sunny day, pushing my cart of groceries towards my car, I saw an old man with the hood of his car up and a lady sitting inside the car, with the door open. The old man was looking at the engine. I put my groceries away in my car and The Old Man continued to watch the old gentleman from about twenty five feet away. I saw a young man in his early twenties with a grocery bag in his arm, walking towards the old man. The old gentleman saw him coming...

    Watch this video of the conflict in Kenya months back. Odinga and Obama are Luo. Odinga and his American counterpart and strategist Obama both campaigned on this canard of “change”. Obama campaigned for Odinga. Adam pointed out that Obama been in Nairobi politicking more recently than he’s been to Iraq. Why now does Obama pretend he doesn’t know him? Listen as the Luo calls itself the “Taliban” in the video. It’s graphic, it’s gruesome but it is who Obama supported. Watch the whole thing, particularly the Luos burning church, raping women, and hacking a man to death ……….. vid hat...

  • Prayer Request for Swift Boat VietNam Vet (Final Update)

    My dear friend, Frank, has been released from his sick body and now soars like an eagle. Diagnosed with lung and brain cancer, 4th stage, just days before our horrible hurricane season befell us. He passed at 11:15am this morning. A very courgeous young man he was serving on a Swift Boat manning the twin 50 caliber guns in Vietnam in the early 60's. 63 years old seems young to be dying even as we lose our young men fighting terrorism and Frank was so very proud of all those that serve their country. He loved his family very much...

    I wish to ask for the prayers for a dear friend of mine. His name is Frank and he was a Swift Boat Vet that manned the twin 50 calibers and lived to tell about it. He has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung and brain cancer. On Thursday he was rushed by ambulance to the ER and has renal failure and a major infection invading his body. I know all about the rules of vanity posting but this man is a real gem of a man and truly needs all the prayers that our Freeper warriors can give to...

    I have been sickened this evening by learning via the television 11 o'clock news, that the grandson of a dear friend has been murderd in Iraq. Scott Helvenston, from Florida was one of the four men in the despicable attack. And yes his body was hung over the Eurphrates River. A 12 year Navy Seal veteran and a wonderful person. Watched this boy grow into a man and it has just about sucker punched me.
