There will be such an outpouring of sewage that no one stays clean. The 2020 election is going to be a real doozy. If you thought that the hacking, vicious memes, rumor-mongering, Russian interference and FBI blundering was bad last time, just wait. No matter who wins, the question of whether the outcome was fair or even accurate will arise, for partisans on the losing side and conspiracy theorists, but also for any reasonably objective person who’s watching. It’s likely, in other words, that the result of the 2020 election, particularly if it ends up close, will have little credibility....

President Obama also criticized Fox News, al though not by name, for "attacking" him. It’s very hard for me to swallow that one,” Obama said. “First of all, I’ve got one television station that is entirely devoted to attacking my administration,” he added,

Just wanted to send a note and say hey and tell you about one of the darnedest things. And I gotta say it is one of the clearest examples of how CONservatives (not to be confused with honest conservatives) have managed to convince so many people so many lies are in fact the truth. This is indeed a rather mind numbing stor ... eh ... no ... actually it's what I'd expect. So here's what happened, Droppings: Somebody with the screen name of "presidio9" picked up my piece Green diets vs. global warming and posted it on the Internet message...

For those hoping that a second term would cool the seething resentment of George Bush and his supporters over having to live in a democratic society, it was a sobering moment: Bush Resubmits 20 Nominations for Federal JudgeshipsDec. 23 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. President George W. Bush will resubmit 20 federal judicial nominations, reigniting a battle with Democrats who accuse the nominees of hostility to abortion rights and the environment.The list includes seven of the 10 candidates whose nominations failed during Bush's first term because of Democratic filibusters that blocked Senate confirmation votes. Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid called the nominees...

To all good people of countries other than the US- WE are now officially a rogue nation- please don’t blame the citizens of the US as we have been taken over by Nazis. Trust us, we are more frightened than you. There is no possible way that Bush is the most popular president ever. There is no way that he won this election. It is a lie, supported by fraudulent elections and corrupt government officials. There is no popular support for Bush, only Bush freepers on the net paid for by homeland security to convince other nations and naive US...

You all took turns laughing because I am an extreme left, but I laugh at you because you people proved me right. You delete remarks for no other reason but you don't like the thoughts expressed, (though mine was left for assument) inactivate my account, and preach free speech for all. My words weren't for the purpose of starting a war, only to say, "hey, what do you think about this?" I didn't get one intellgent arugment. Name calling yes, insults yes, nothing thought provoking. So you cane prove me right yet again, and delete this post and inactivate my...

Exactly why are you retards happy that this Cokehead chimp is back? Do Conservatives like escalating budget deficits? I guess so. Do Conservatives like pointless wars initiated by lies? I guess so. You really must love outsourced jobs and a crappy economy. You are probably too stupid to realize how the country is now screwed. To hell with all of you.

Following is the full English transcript of Usama bin Ladin's speech in a videotape sent to Aljazeera. In the interests of authenticity, the content of the transcript, which appeared as subtitles at the foot of the screen, has been left unedited. Praise be to Allah who created the creation for his worship and commanded them to be just and permitted the wronged one to retaliate against the oppressor in kind. To proceed: Peace be upon he who follows the guidance: People of America this talk of mine is for you and concerns the ideal way to prevent another Manhattan, and...

I was just wondering how many freepers believe in global warming? What do you think about it?

George W. Bush is a lesson to us all. He tells us that no matter how stupid, ignorant, or greedy you are, you can get the most powerful job in the World. That drives me.. Take Kyoto. A global agreement to lower gases that have created global warming and weather instability. George, my hero, is the only leader in the World to say that he would have nothing to do with this agreement. There's ignorance! The poor people of Florida are currently feeling the consequence of this, but hey, there's money at stake here. Take stupid....The evil man (Osama) who...

Democrats were crying foul yesterday after a Bush campaign official managed to cross-reference Vietnam and "Seinfeld" in criticizing an ad for John Kerry. "John Kerry's campaign seems to be summed up this way: 'I went to Vietnam, yada yada yada, I want to be President," Bush campaign spokesman Terry Holt told The Washington Post. Holt's swipe came as a put-down to a new ad by the Massachusetts senator touting his war hero status. On the TV sitcom "Seinfeld," "yada yada" was shorthand for information someone would rather gloss over. Kerry spokeswoman Stephanie Cutter immediately demanded an apology, and former Sen....

I wanted to invite everyone to greet our newest signup, whyareyoudumbandhateful. Do you think his or her first post will be to make a donation on the Freepathon thread?

<p>I am a 15-year-old sophomore at D.C. Everest Senior High School, and I am writing about the Aug. 13 editorial regarding student dress codes because my mom always told me I am not to complain if I am not willing to take action.</p>

The Free Republic server will be down briefly tonight. John is adding yet another server to the system to better handle the load. He'll have to bring the system down for about five minutes during the installation process. This should happen sometime within the next two hours. Hopefully, the system will only be down for about five minutes. Just enough time to make a pit stop.

Homosexuals Angry at ConocoPhillipsA major oil company has removed "sexual orientation" from its nondiscrimination policy. Homosexual activists are up in arms because another major oil company, ConocoPhillips, has pulled back from a policy that homosexuals covet. Conoco included the words "sexual orientation" until it merged with Phillips Petroleum last year. The new company erased the language, according to Kelly Shackelford, head of the Plano, Texas-based Freedom Foundation. Conoco-Phillips is based in Houston."Just as a lot of conservatives and pro-family people complain when people go the wrong direction, ConocoPhillips needs to be congratulated and, in fact, more business done with...
