Fox tv station in Miami just reported a bunch of students have walked out of class to protest the shooting of Trayvon Martin.

https://secure2.edf.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=1953 Someone on facebook posted this on his wall, to which I promptly commented More Pablum for the Masses. But then I tried to find the referenced bill and came up blank, except for S.J.Res. 37 (111th): A joint resolution calling upon the President to issue a proclamation recognizing the 35th anniversary of the Helsinki Final Act. Am I missing something or is the EDF clairvoyant, or just making stuff up? I'm sure all those thoughtfully-penned letters will make a difference.

CBN News reported today on the government kidnapping of a young homeschooled boy in Sweden. This little boys name is Domenick Johansson, he was taken from his family as they were boarding a plane, he has been kept at social services since June 2009. The Swedish government is now speaking of taking away the parents rights. This is hard to believe but it is true.

Over 13 million American kids will be bullied this year, making it the most common form of violence experienced by young people in the nation. The new documentary film BULLY, directed by Sundance and Emmy award-winning filmmaker Lee Hirsch, brings human scale to this startling statistic, offering an intimate, unflinching look at how bullying has touched five kids and their families.

America commits a great injustice to Muslims when it offers them citizenship, without explaining to them the obligations that America requires from its citizens, and the values on which America was founded. America is a nation that was founded on Judeo-Christian principles, and the laws and culture of America reflects a Judeo-Christian ethic. The Muslim Quran requires Muslims to wage jihad on Christians and Jews, and not to accept them as friends. We need to change the oath of citizenship, so that immigrant Muslims can understand the obligations and responsibilities that America requires from its citizens. The oath of citizenship...

One year later, the union bosses in Wisconsin haven't relented. Despite teacher militant "sick outs," bused-in out-of-state protesters, and a Democrat legislative walkout to delay a vote, on March 11, 2011 Governor Scott Walker signed a desperately-needed reform of Wisconsin's government unions -- including Right to Work protections for public employees. Your National Right to Work Committee rallied public support for this and helped keep weak-kneed Republicans from caving in to Big Labor's pressure. That's when Big Labor launched phase two. They filed frivolous lawsuits to dismantle the law in the courts and tried to retake the Wisconsin Senate with...

Editor: High on the front page of the March 18th edition we found this: “An important national investigation.” I expected to read of Sheriff Arpio’s official probe into the fraud and forgeries surrounding Barack Obama and his almost certain Constitutional ineligibility to hold the highest office in America. I was disappointed. You in the Fourth Estate have failed Americans who actually care about the rule of law. And, in the end, you will find that you have foolishly and terminally failed yourselves. You see, throughout history, incipient tyrants have routinely availed themselves of the stupidity and ignorance of what Lenin...

Ok...so Drudge and others are talking about the E.O. that was re-signed by Obama on Friday with the additional words "non-emergency" added to it as well. Dig a little deeper...now mind you I am not jumping on the Alex Jones bandwagon just yet...but what's up with these other E.O.'s being signed days and weeks apart that actually link right along with what was re-signed and amended on Friday night? Executive Order 13600 Jump to: navigation, search ←Executive Order 13599 Executive Order 13600 by President of the United States Establishing the President's Global Development Council Executive Order 13601→ Signed by President...

Poor Rick Santorum. He goes to Puerto Rico and pisses them off by telling them they must make English the official language if they want Statehood. (See Link) http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/03/16/us-usa-campaign-puertorico-idUSBRE82D16Z20120316 What the hell was he thinking? Why did his handlers not brief him on this issue before he got to Puerto Rico? Republicans just cannot get it through their friggin' head that the Hispanic vote is a big chunk of votes, and all flavors of Hispanics (Mexican, Cuban, Puerto Rican) stick together. If he is the nominee, this will follow him all the way to November. Rick NEVER does well speaking...

Liberalism is a mental psychosis where the inflicted cannot distinguish between fantasy and reality. This is evidenced by the Obama supporter in Arizona who threatened to kill Sheriff Arpiao and his family because the Arizona Sheriff's "cold case" team discovered fraud associated with Obama's birth certificate. Further evidence of this liberal psychosis is Bill Mauer calling Mrs. Palin a "-unt" and the liberal left celebrated this name calling.

We all know that Obama is a poser sack of crap. but who are his foot soldiers? Lets document them in one place. Many of us know the AG, Eric Holder. Some have mentioned the Energy secretary Stephan Chu Does any one know who Lisa Jackson is? Then there are the advisers the inner circle like Valerie Jarrett List them and vet them here Freepers. Let us document them and frame the picture

Has anyone else noticed that all three of our non-Romney Republican candidates for President grew up in Southern Pennsylvania? Does anyone suppose this is a historical coincidence? It's not. Unless you are some kind of history nut, you've never even heard the term "doughface Northerner", since it hasn't been politically current in 150 years. And if you have heard it, then you know it was an old term of mocking and scorn -- for Northerners who loved the ante-bellum South and supported the South's legal, ahem, "institutions". Indeed, the term itself, "doughface" was derisively coined by Southerners to describe their...

If this has been posted my apologies. The reason I posted this is because many believed that Breitbart had selectively edited the tape of Shirley Sherrod. This wasn't the case. This was the first time I have seen this...Breitbart was on the up and up on the Sherrod video and It makes me ill after seeing this...

Barack Obama turned up the intensity of his reelection bid, debuting a movie glorifying himself as a president who made "tough" decisions that dragged a traumatized nation out of crisis. The 17-minute film, soberly narrated by Tom Hanks, is packed with pensive still photos of Obama, and testimony to his toughness from backers like former president Bill Clinton, Vice President Joe Biden and top political aides. It opens with footage of Obama's euphoric victory rally in Chicago in 2008, recreating the hope and expectation of that campaign, but perhaps inadvertently pointing to the difficultly of recreating that heady moment in...

Buddy of mine just heard it on a Dominican radio station Can anyone confirm this?

<p>I have seen a lot of FReepers state that they would NEVER cast a vote for Romney. That is my gut reaction as well. Mitt is on recored saying that I will vote for him eventually. His arrogance makes me want to prove him wrong and write in a cadidate. But I fear that will lead to 4 more years of Obama. Until I stare at the ballot in November, I don't know for sure what I will do. If it is a choice between Obama and Romney, what will you do?</p>

HOW TO RETRUN TO $2.00 A GALLON GAS You know what, I am sick of hearing all of the endless wrangling by the major news media and politicians (particularly of the liberal variety) regarding the price of gas. Yesterday I heard some so-called oil and gas expert on a talk show. He was a guest and clearly an Obama supporter. He launched into this protracted explanation of the price of gold, the value of the dollar, OPEC, the world market and China's purchasing, etc., etc. to explain why the price cannot come down and how anyone saying it can...

Taliban bomb kills 13 women and children killed in Afghanistan. Where's the outrage! Why isn't this story on the media channels? I'v yet to see CNN, CBS, NBC or ABC report this.
