    So, I don't agree with Mark Levin all the time? So what! I care more about my agreements with him than my disagreements with him. Mature people don't agree with each other 100% of time. You know that, don't you? He's a true conservative and more importantly, a true American, and therefore a true patriot. Some of you are upset because Mark is not a Trump cultist and at times disagrees with him. Well, that's the sign of a patriot. Patriots are not cultists for anyone. By the way, Mark supported Trump in the election. Do you remember that? You...

Nobody wants to see a repeat of 2007 and 2008, when gas prices spiked to above $4 per gallon, as this chart from Gasbuddy shows, and people began to ride horses to run errands. But for several...

    Thank you, Jim Robinson. The Warrior Freeper spirit is the most important change to the Republican party in the last 50 years. The passive, pious and naive GOP were nearly destroyed by the dirty streetfighting tactics of the Clintonized DNC. Make no mistake - despite being on the right side of the issues, despite being the party that carries the torch of the Founding Fathers, alone these are not enough to win the hearts and minds - and votes - of the mindless masses that sway elections. No more. Warrior Freepers have now taken the battle directly to the Socialist...
