Free Republic

The economy is so bad that I got a pre~declined credit card in the mail. CEO's are now playing minature golf. Exxon Mobile laid of 25 congressmen. Angelina Jolie adopted a child from America. Motel Six won't leave the light on anymore. A picture is now only worth 200 words. They renamed Wall Street "Wal~Mart Street"and finally.... I called the Suicide Hotline, I got a call center in Pakistan and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited and ask if I could drive a truck. Women are starting to have more sex with their husbands...they can't...

I have finally given up trying to keep up with the rising cost of fast access DSL and downgrade to a Dial-up service. I just can't afford it anymore. My question is to those who use a dial-up connection, which one do you find the best. I thank you, in advance, for your input

When Nancy Cook dined out, she used a debit card to cover the tab. When she paid her personal cell phone bill, she used the same card. When she withdrew cash, she used it again.

Harry Reid has promised, IN WRITING with all democrats members signatures, to kill the plan the House sends to them. Ok then, Boehner take whatever plan the House can agree to and send it over to the Senate...TODAY, along with a WRITTEN STATEMENT signed by House members to Harry Reid. Dear Majority Leader: You and your democrat colleagues have put the House on notice, in writing and signed by all your members, that you intend to kill our bill. We know your intentions are to be taken seriously because you refused to even present our last bill we sent to...

If you are lured into signing up for the Smart Meter program, you may want to read this article to see what you are in for.

Here in Charleston SC there are periodic interruptions with the audio feed on Fox News. Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

We spend way too much time focusing on all that is wrong with the world and not enough on the basis of our existence. I was emailed this video and was compelled to share it with my friends and fellow Freepers. http://www.andiesisle.com/creation/magnificent.html Enjoy.

Razors are expensive and get dull way too quick and I started to think about a way to make them last much longer. When we shave, we are not only cutting the bristle but we are also getting oils and dead skin on the blade. This lead me to thinking what would clean the blades from this stuff. So I stared experimenting and came up the perfect solution...91% Isopropyl Alcohol. I put some in container which I could put a lid on to eliminate evaporation. Then I used an old blade which I was about to throw away and vigorously...

Let it be true.

If any of you suffer from leg cramps at night when you go to bed, I have something you can try. I know it works for me and it's a cheap remedy. Buy a bath size of bar of Ivory Soap and put it under your fitted sheet near where your legs would be. I know, it sounds crazy but IT WORKS. If you don't like that big lump by your legs, just take a knife, stand the bar of soap on edge and slice it in half or thinner, if you can. I have read that some people with...

First off, there are no photos are made public without the regimes approval. The photo was meant to convey to the public certain messages. But first, Hillary Clinton probably looked like the most intensely focused on what she was watching on the screen. Why would she deny what she was feeling in that photo and claim she was having an allergy reaction? I think her statement was prompted by the release of Leon Panetta's statement that there was NO VIDIO for most of the mission. In other words all of the people in that photo were watching NOTHING. I believe...

The Five Year Plan For the Socialist State of America. Sometimes you have to put aside the fear of looking the fool or on the outer fringe of conventional thinking and just state your thoughts. I will risk that to clear my mind of what I believe may be the plan, vision and goal of the enemy's of our Republic . I believe Obama to be a 'manufactured president' who has been sinisterly crafted by these people who have lived in the shadows of our country for decades. They have waited for just the right time, the right person and...

There is phrase that Facebook members should NOT click on: It pops up as a message from your people on your Friends List and reads: "Hope this doesn't happen to you...poor girl" It is a hidden virus. Don't open it!!!

The occupiers of the White House, the Congress and all others who would let or cause our Republic be overthrown had better watch this video. They probably believe that the spirit and courage that our country was founded on is dead...it is not and they will find out very shortly. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=Iwa-lSVqA1M&vq=medium

Do any of you FReepers having Audio and Video problems occurring during Beck's program at five o'clock? This is the ONLY time this is happening on ANY of the cable shows on Comcast in the Charleston SC area and the problems stop right after his show is over. Just wondering.

I've noticed a distinct change of attitude of Juan Williams AND Mara Liasson on the Fox Panel with Bret Baier. Juan's scowling and head shaking are more obvious and often than before he was given a job by the Fox Network. Mara Liasson, at least, doesn't 'mug for the camera' by comments by Steve Hayes and Charles Krauthammer but she has become more 'edgy' and more bias in her comments.   Both are wearing the 'deer in headlights' look in their eyes as if they are trapped in a stuck elevator with Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Pain. In my opinion,...

We all have heard about how far away from Trade Towers should be declared 'hollowed grounds'. I have a more defining measure of that area. Amongst all the dust from concrete, incinerated walls, paper, furniture and other unidentified debris, were the cremated remains of the innocent victims of this act of war against our nation. It is only fitting that WHERE EVER that dust settled, be acknowledged and claimed as Hollowed Grounds. This is where the remains of those thousands laid, to be swept up and discarded along with dust of concrete and debris. Their remains should be remembered at...

I don't know how Freepers have received a letter from the United States Department of Commerce relating to the American Community Survey but my neighbor did and was appalled at the questions. It is fourteen pages long and one of the most intrusive invasions on Privacy Rights I have ever seen. Here is the questions you are, according to their laws, REQUIRED to answer: http://www.census.gov/acs/www/Downloads/ACS-1(info)(2010)%20Stateside%20English_web.pdf

My neighbor just notified me that a friend of her's in Charleston has received ANOTHER census form that she is required to fill out and send in to the government. She had sent in the first one and wondered why they were asking for another. Is this governments way of stacking the population in certain areas for more representation or is it just an isolated incident? Have any of you FReepers heard anything in your areas? We can't put anything past this regime and have to be vigilant 24/7.
