From the day he joined Free Republic in June 2008 (using his original family name, Polarik) to the present, none have worked harder and longer on this issue. During the course of his three-year...

What in the name of Zeus does the GOP think it’s going to achieve by bargaining with Barack Obama and his socialist posse? Instead of pretending we have much in common, why don’t the Republicans get a clue and listen to the results of the last election, and heed Conservatism—and allow liberals to keep listening to Prozac? It is time to use the ancient Roman act of Damnatio Memoriae, or public condemnation, to bury old Barack along with all his self-indulgent and imbecilic decisions. The following article explores this option.

The terminology contained within the reported memo is indeed troubling. It labels any person who “interferes” with TSA airport security screening procedure protocol and operations by actively objecting to the established screening process, “including but not limited to the anticipated national opt-out day” as a “domestic extremist.” The label is then broadened to include “any person, group or alternative media source” that actively objects to, causes others to object to, supports and/or elicits support for anyone who engages in such travel disruptions at U.S. airports in response to the enhanced security procedures.

I watched the Primary returns on FOX News last night (Tuesday, September 14, 2010), and as they came in favoring Tea Party Candidates, I was gleefully amazed at the BLOWBACK coming from the people against the ESTABLISHMENT. And then there was Dana Perino, who on Sean Hannity’s show expressed her enormous disappointment that OUTSIDER Christine O’Donnell beat longtime ESTABLISHMENT incumbent Mike Castle. Her disappointment was palpable, even though Mike Castle voted MORE often for Democrat initiatives then he did with Republicans, especially on issues such as Cap and Trade and the Stimulus Program. Dana Perino DEFENDED Mike Castle, because in...

A social engineering bill to restrict residence in the suburbs and rural areas and force Americans into city centers has passed the United States Senate Banking Committee and is on the fast track to passage in the Senate.The bill is called the Livable Communities Act (SB 1619) and it was introduced by corruptocrat outgoing Senator Christopher Dodd (D-Conn.). It seeks to fulfill the United Nation’s plan Agenda 21, adopted at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and signed onto by “New World Order” President George H.W. Bush.This bill is designed to destroy your community. According to the...

Here's something new for the birthers to chew over: President Barack Obama's passport. Says he was born in Hawaii! But the White House has strategically fuzzed out certain data, so the mystery continues. Now, it's his official passport, which means it's new, so the true believers will not be persuaded. Not that they ever would.

I’ve known many Liberals over the years, some of considerable talent, including liberal family and friends whom I dearly love. Unfortunately, Liberals have initiated a considerable amount of harm to our nation from their blind application of circular logic when trying to make sense of the world. To justify their policy positions and beliefs, Liberals must jettison the prescriptions of reason, historical fact, and acceptance of human nature. Many older Liberals can still recall media references to Nikita Khrushchev’s various disruptions of the United Nations General Assembly with fist pounding, shoe banging, and shouts of belligerence (“we will bury you”)....

So here's a fascinating public transport idea that we've never seen mooted before – giant super-buses that roll on stilts on small tracks between lanes of traffic. So they roll over the top of stopped traffic, and when they stop to let passengers on and off, they don't interrupt the flow of traffic below. Far quicker and cheaper to build than a subway or monorail system, the Straddling Bus system simply requires modification to existing roads, and the creation of a network of elevated bus stops. (snip) This is not a pipe dream – the pilot program goes into construction...

For the first time Friday, the Coast Guard and BP acknowledged that a mysterious second pipe, wedged next to the drill pipe in what remains of the Deepwater Horizon's riser, is fouling up the works where the well is spewing hundreds of millions of gallons of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico. (snip) While Allen said he believes the second pipe fell from above, some experts have advanced another explanation. They believe poorly cemented casings -- tubes that are supposed to form solid walls down thousands of feet of the well bore -- may have been dislodged by the...

We can only hope that our American friends enjoy their national holiday weekend. Let them wave their flags, enjoy their picnics and show their love of country, because they need a holiday. It is disturbing these days for the country’s friends to watch the Great Republic’s politics, to wonder about its economy, to tremble at its deficits, and to shake their heads at its Supreme Court that has struck down corporate contribution limits in politics and reaffirmed the right to bear arms, to the intense joy of the gun lobby. The United States gave itself the most gifted President in...

WHO AM I? I was born in one country, raised in another. My father was born in another country. I was not his only child. He fathered several children with numerous women. I became very close to my mother, as my father showed no interest in me. My mother died at an early age from cancer. Later in life, questions arose over my real name. My birth records were sketchy and no one was able to produce a legitimate, reliable birth certificate. I grew up practicing one faith but converted to Christianity, as it was widely accepted in my country,...

"A very sobering video. This just didn't happen overnight, its been waiting for the "Perfect Storm," "One Party Rule." And this isn't just the work of one Party. Both parties have allowed this to progress to where we are today. The time for apathy is over, the time for taking back our Country is now. If we lose our fight in November, kiss our Country goodbye. November will be the election of our survival as a free nation. The election of our survival period!" (message in email accompanying video)

As typical Islamist-leftist theater to delegitimize Israel, late May's Turkish-sponsored "Free Gaza" flotilla was tediously repetitious. As an illustration that Israelis don't understand the kind of war they now must fight, the outcome was drearily predictable. But as a statement of Turkey's policies and an augur of the Islamist movement's future, it bristled with novelty and significance.Some background: after some 150 years of faltering efforts at modernization, the Ottoman Empire finally collapsed in 1923, replaced by the dynamic, Western-oriented Republic of Turkey founded and dominated by a former Ottoman general, Kemal Atatürk. Over the next fifteen years, until his...

Now, a high-ranking Saudi, Sheikh Abdul Mohsin al-Abaican, a consultant at Saudi Arabia's royal court, has issued a fatwa asserting that ...women could give their milk to men to establish a degree of maternal relations and get around a strict religious ban on mixing between unrelated men and women. [Because] a man who often entered a house and came in contact with the womenfolk there should be made symbolically related to the women by drinking milk from one of the women. Under the fatwa, the act would preclude any sexual relations between the man and the donor woman and her...

Parts of history has it that the name Kenya was coined from the Kamba language pronunciation of Mt Kenya’s traditional name, Kirinyaga and Kinyaa. The mountain, from afar, appeared black on side and white on its snow-capped glaciers and thus they named it kii nyaa (the place of the male ostrich) which is black and white as compared to the gray female. According to the Nairobi Railway Museum curator, Maurice Barasa, others believe the name Kenya came from Kirinyaga which means a place with white spots.

Conventional dental implants are typically screwed into the patient’s jaw bone, require visits to several types of clinicians, take two to six months to heal, and are still subject to failure. Not exactly an ideal solution to missing teeth. A professor of dental medicine at Columbia University Medical Center, however, has devised a technique wherein implants could be grown in the empty tooth socket, right inside the patient’s mouth. Dr. Jeremy Mao started with a tooth-shaped scaffold made of microchannelled natural materials, infused with a growth factor. In an animal-model study, he placed that structure in a recipient’s empty tooth...

If men who naturally do not have a womb can be allowed to speak the loudest on the abortion debate, then women too deserve a say when it comes to what happens to their men’s members. (snip) These and many more are some of the intricate bedroom tiffs springing up as the Government rolls out the voluntary Kenya National Male Circumcision Programme. (snip) Much as the programme is highly successful, some women are taking offence with the way their men are "secretly undertaking the process" even as others do not know how to convince their men "with egos the size...

Responding to the massive BP oil spill, Congress is getting ready to quadruple—to 32 cents a barrel—a tax on oil used to help finance cleanups.

A massive Sh164 billion in hard currency has found its way into the Kenyan economy — and the government is unable to explain its source. The $2.1 billion inflow has left government statisticians and donors scratching their heads for answers, fuelling concerns that Kenya may be turning into a money laundering destination by Somali pirates. The large foreign currency injections are captured in the latest balance of payments statistics published by the Central Bank of Kenya. (snip) Having risen to $2.1 billion, the current level represents a massive 100 per cent increase within a year. The mysterious billions are over...
