President Trump has proposed replacing some food stamp grants with actual food. This has curiously enraged liberals, who you would think would be delighted to see "hungry" people getting food.

There is a longstanding but probably apocryphal story about the time a rash equerry told an off-color joke in the presence of Queen Victoria of England. She drew herself up and invoking the royal lingual prerogative said in a chilly tone, “We are not amused.” Read more: http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/09/hir_majesty_mix_bressack_the_new_american_royalty.html#ixzz4uAcWq2Gy Follow us: @AmericanThinker on Twitter | AmericanThinker on Facebook

I'm going to accompany my beloved wife to St. Paul to attend a science fiction/fantasy convention July 20-23. My first impression is that Diversicon will be overrun with "fluffy bunnies", and other libtards. Therefore, while she is attending panel discussions about "making your monsters relatable", and other such drivel, I would love to meet up with local freepers for beer and cigars.

At times during this journey my professed beliefs have varied from atheist to agnostic to nominal Roman...

Fellow Freepers, I need your help to find an item I have seen online frequently, have deleted from my inbox several times and have heard references to in many venues. Now I need this item to post on another private group list to counter the bubbleheaded comments of our most liberal member. She went berserk online after a simple question about whether singling out people who match a set of criteria is profiling. Here is an excerpt from her reply: "Yes This is profiling And i'm really confused with how people can make these generalizations about a religion, and still...
