Free Republic

... Charges that he has had extra-marital affair. So what? Who cares? I know I'm a little bit late on posting this vanity and I know that some people may read into this thread more than I intended but here goes. I just wish that all the Freepers posting negative remarks about Bill Clinton's sexual escapades would just shut up. The next time I see some Freeper post yet another news story regarding the rumors of Clinton's infidelity, I'm gonna go find and post a picture of the "Aw Jeez" guy. Don't you know that any and all of the...

If not here and now, where will you draw the line? If the Natural Born citizen requirement that defines the requirement for President of the United States is to be ignored for this candidate, then it sets a precedent for all future usurpers as well. And the same Americans will have no problem with the reigns of the United States of America in the hands of the sons of Osama BIN LADEN, Saddam HUSSEIN, Kim Jong-il, Mahmoud AHMADINEHAD, Fidel or Raul CASTRO, Hugo CHAVEZ,, Robert MUGABE, Sayyid Ali Khamenei, Hu Jintao, Omar Al-Bashir, Than Shwe, or Islam Karimov. That is...

Fellow Freepers-now comes a call to overload the phone lines in Washington DC. Call your elected representatives until we force them to address the issue of Obama/Soetoro and his inability to prove he's eligible to run for President. In light of Philip Berg's lawsuit being throw out for lack of "standing" the people of this country now need to DEMAND this country enforce the rule of law. We'll force this issue to be addressed like we've done before! Call now, jam the switchboard and overload the circuits and fight for the Constitution! Fight against the tyranny taking place and the...

Dear Rush, Laura, Michelle, Mike, Glenn and other conservative talkers, First, let me say thank you for your efforts to inject some spine into our public officials this week. You were all correct about this bailout, as were the vast majority of Freepers here on little ol FreeRepublic. We almost pulled off the upset. But as usual, the 'conservative' punditry was split along familiar lines. The Fred Barneses, Hewitts, Medveds, and the National Review ladies were all pimping the bailout, providing much needed cover for some House Republicans (and democrats) to suddenly see the merits of adding another 150 Billion...

What Happens if NO Repubs in Congress Vote to Support the Bailout Bill?

Rush Limbaugh, many talk radio hosts on the right, and many conservatives have only one objective in this election which is to defeat John McCain at any cost. They failed to defeat McCain in the primaries so they are now focusing all their efforts to defeat him in the general elections. How are they going to achieve their objective? It is very simple. Work very hard on taking out the weaker democrat in the general elections and in this case it is Barack Obama. Hillary Clinton is a much stronger candidate than Obama in the general elections and she has...

I know FreeRepublic is not for profit. I understand that any changes that are done to it are "unencumbered" by any feasible plan. But you are driving me nuts, John! Think things through from my perspective. I don't have time to play around figuring out all the subtle differences between on Alpha release and the Next. Do the right thing. Beta. Test. Don't break what isn't broken. Never, ever, do anything that breaks a bookmark. I understand that playgrounds are fun, but I, for one, don't have time to coddle you whilst you are playing!

Is there any doubt who controls most of our beloved Republic? Last night, as I flipped through the countless television channels available on my satellite dish, I saw: A BBC America promotion touting "One World" as a slogan and interviews ridiculing a number of conservatives. A program called "The L Word" on Showtime, depicting two women engaged in "normal" sexual relations. An endless stream of business channels predicting economic disaster. One out of three commercials followed a "Green" theme, pushing Environmentalism as if it was a religion. The Weather Channel talking heads seemed to think man-made "climate change" was the...

Anyone watching Larry King? The usual Libs vs. Republicans (believe me, there are no conservatives on this show). Representing Republicans are Ben Stein and some GOP Stategist chick and both of them are agreeing with practically everything the expert politcal analysis raving liberal team of Fran Drescher, Stephanie Miller (is anyone more annoying?), and that idiot from The West Wing are saying. So much for any stones on our side.

Is anyone else bothered by this? Geico and OnStar commercials depict car accidents caused by animals. Why are the marketers so dag blasted afraid to show the truth. Anybody with any smarts knows you hit the stupid squirrel and save a life. Years ago, a man gave me driving instructions. "Don't dodge the turtle to hit a car." The animals rights people have everyone whipped. Smart people mock the Catholic Church for hindering the search for truth in the Dark Ages. The Animal Rights and Earth First people are just as oppressive and stupid. Hey, has anyone heard when Ben...

I know that this is my first post (I'm a long time lurker), but shouldn't we be looking forward to 2008 with more conviction now? I have seen some people here posting positive comments, but most are telling me that the next few years are going to be horrible. I'm not sure about everyone else, but I'm even more motivated to participate in 2008. I'm in Taiwan right now (overseas assignment for LMCO) and had to vote absentee. I've voted absentee my entire life due to service in the Marine Corps and my current position with Lockheed Martin. I've thought...

I have it from good sources that Harriet Miers' housekeepers step sisters second cousin once removed from her brothers aunts half sisters side by marriage to her sisters third cousin on her dads side once removed from his yougest nephews oldest step uncle who was divorced but remarried ate at a Ben And Jerry's in 1992. Bush is crazy.

I was talking with a clerk at the local convenience store today. He was probably an Arab, but be seems very nice. He and I know each other a little bit. I asked him if he ever worried about getting robbed. It may not have been a smart question to ask, but I was curious. He said he was. This reminded me of when I worked at a gas station when I was in college. The rule there was to give them the money. No argumenets, no heroics. At that time, it was almost all cash. We wiped the the...

I'm an Orthodox Jew and have been skeptical about the entire marriage debate. Jewish law does not recognize ANY marriage that includes a non-Jew, whatever the genders. The Bible, of course, never describes marriage except for the obligations of divorce if a man has "taken awife/woman." I was amazed, though, by my own reactions to the joy, peace and conviction of the gay couples I have seen getting married. I wept. I have searched my heart and mind for any conservative value that conflicts with acts of assuming responsibility for another person and a relationship under law that I have...
