Free Republic

Earlier this morning I was on a regional radio show. (The Marc Bernier show). I attempted to explain Barack Obama's associations with radical America hating people. (Ayers, Khalid Al Monsour and Odinga). Marc, unlike his normal self cut me off and asked "Why should I care". "What has this got to do with anything" just before he hung up. I fired off a email in disgust, and upon reflection I sent him the email below. I'm open to your suggestions and thoughts, but the mindset of "Why does any of this matter" is dangerous and I for one intend to...

Yeah, it's a vanity. But here goes. You've been hired to give advice the McCain/Palin campaign. Your task is to give them three specific and key things they can do between now and election day to assure a win and energize not only the base but the middle where the undecideds are. With each point, explain how it will attract and keep people in the McCain camp. You know there are campaign operatives out there that are pouring through forums for information. Let's give it to them. Remember, it's three specific and key things with the reasons why those three...

Having never posted here before I may be covering old news...but last night I was appalled so much that I came to this site and registered. On CNN's pre-debate coverage they announced that they had selected 69 voters to respond to the debate. 38 democrats and 31 republicans. After the debate and all day today they have reported that 54% of their selected "debate watchers" would now vote for Obama. Isn't 54% of 69 still 38...the exact number of democrats in their original group.

You know who you are. You're the one posting stupid comments about what a loser Johnny is. You're the one getting on the political chat shows and telling everyone that you think Obama is super great and that he's going to win! Yeay! And your supposed to be a conservative. Why don't you shut up! I'm talking to all the whiners who piled on and joined the Chris Matthews bandwagon and declared Johnny an old man and a big dull loser. He did fine last night. He was the boss on foreign policy. He's never been a dazzling public speaker...

Just wondering what your opinion is about people who post vanities when their opinions could be posted to existing threads.

That’s right - a whore! And Senator John McCain did nothing defend her! I’m talking about my Republican party - the GOP. Obama and the other Democrats laid the blame of this financial mess at the feet of my GOP - calling her an outright whore. And John McCain didn’t hit back with the vengeance of someone protecting the reputation of his mother. He barely uttered a whimper. If he claims to be a member of the family, I expect him to defend her from this most vial lie. I do not want this Democratic engineered sub-prime mess associated with...

Rod Dreher, a self described "crunchy con" blogger has, over the last week or so, become a wildly ardent critic of Sarah Palin, actually going on morning tv and Larry King, who used him to demonstrate conservatives think Palin's unfit to serve... Slipped over the edge and revealed his own lack of belief in democracy for anyone but himself as well... He's calling for "an acceptable dictator" apparently be installed and then we leave Afghanistan, on his blog at beliefnet. With friends like this, conservatives don't need enemies. Other wacky statements like "Well, look, I can read the newspaper, and...

How appropriate that the Bill passed by the Senate tonight to "rescue" our financial markets has Chris Dodd's name attached to it -- chairman of the Senate committee overseeing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac aided by Barney Frank, committee chair on the House side, and both recipients of sweetheart deals all their political lives. From one Connecticut resident to the Nation, the bail-out is rescuing -- and rewarding -- the corrupt governance that has plagued our Nation since the "free press" took sides and now makes no excuse for their bias and twisted fairness. Accountability is their mantra until the...

The Mallards are in the mood for romance, Spring is coming!

It is my thought that the NYT's un-substantiated story about a possible affair with the tele-com representative is nothing more than a warning shot across the bow of the straight talk express. I believe this was in retaliation for Mccain's direct assault on Obama's record or lack thereof after the recent primary. The real media onslaught has not even begun. The truth or proof of allegations is going to mean very little to these people. The allegation will do the damage. It was a universal axiom that the MSM was going to turn on him. The irony of the mains...

Not once since Hizbollah kidnapped two Israeli soldiers, killed a young Israeli citizen have my liberal friends mentioned once in office conversation. Today I felt totally shut up when one of my co-workers made a comment about "my governor, Mitt Romney" and new benefit rules for MassHealth. I started to respond and was shut down by another co-worker who said O.k. let's not talk politics. I said "You democrates never want to talk politics." It's so frustrating. Day after day after I spend my evenings here on FR, my liberal co-workers talk about the next pair of curtains they are...

Anyone else hear that if there is going to be a SCOTUS retirment it will happen tomorrow. That makes sense giving that the last cases will be announced tomorrow, Hamdan v. Rumsfeld and I think a few others. Also, if anyone else is up for random speculation on who will retire and who will replace. I'll go with Stevens retires, Karen Williams replaces. Mods, sorry if this is a useless vanity.
