Tweeting Dana.....

How about an Obama free month?

I would just love that! Let's start with this coming Tuesday when he delivers his SOTUS. I'm dreading it. Mr. Professor bragging about his $1.4 Trillion deficits, the brilliantly corrupt passage of his outrageous Obamacare bill, his blessed continuation of President Bush's Tax Cuts, how happy we should be with his record breaking ObamaRama Unemployment of 9.4% and finally, how lucky we are to have him as Leader of the Free World as he kowtows to China's President Hu. Yes Dana, I think Obama is worthy of you boycotting him as well. Just saying.

As soon as they start this “Sarah Free” month Sarah should announce her run...LOL

That would be hilarious!

I’m betting this petty attempt fails within a week.

I don't even give it a week....this is Saturday, I give it until Monday, when the weekend is over!

The Washington Post is engaging in online political activism by encouraging its readers to boycott news coverage of Sarah Palin.”

Won’t work. They’re like crack addicts. Their hatred is so intense they simply cannot put down that pipe. She stands for everything they detest and so they must feed that hatred. She is symbolic of everything missing in their miserable worldview and existence and so she has to be brutalized and ultimately destroyed.

The WP will probably have daily articles throughout February reporting on how the boycott is going. (They cannot help themselves.)

Too funny. The MSM only writes negative crap about the Palin’s, so Spaceman Milbank is only promoting nobody read their negative crap.

I think it would be fine for the whorehouse media to do a blackout on Sarah Palin for awhile. The net effect is that a relentless stream of total hate would be quenched while her own common-sense pro-American communications would go on undisturbed through the alternative media. Go for it, WaPo and henchmen. If it feels good do it. Knock yourselves out.

As biased as the Post is, I can’t seen even its management endorsing something so obviously biased. The Post organization will be disassociating itself from this very soon. But it does clearly indicate the bias of much of the organization.

Isn’t this the kind of stuff that used to happen to the prettiest, most popular girl in class, back in High School?

I was thinking along the same lines.

Oh, this is funny. This will last about two seconds. They live for Palin. They cannot help it. They will crack.

They realize that they are responsible for keeping Sarah Palin front and center, even if it is by negative press and they think maybe if they would stop reporting about her, the public will forget her.

But ... they CAN’T stop.

Reminds me of the cell commercial where one in a group of five gets his joke first. He...

bursts out laughing, then says...

That's so dumb.

I’m dreading the speech, even though I won’t watch it. I’m dreading all the fawning accolades it will get.

But I am looking forward to Paul Ryan and Michele Bachman’s response.

"The Washington Post?? What does that look like?"

Go to your birdcage, it's the speckled base at the bottom; or, go to your garage where your house mutt does his or her business and you'll see the ComPOST appropriately covered with your mutt's morning or evening deposits.

So far, the only news reports about Sarah Palin have come from the right wing. The left wing media have only engaged in agitprop from day one. Thanks Lakeshark.

Does this mean they won't be spreading lies and innuendo about her for a month?


So, youse think your small donation to FR won't go very far?
Here's an offer you can't refuse!

I know some people feel bad about donating a small amount like $5 or $10 but heck, if that’s what you’ve got, that’s what you’ve got! I don’t know many that would turn their nose up at it :-)

So I’ll propose that if you want to donate something between $5 and $20, when you either contact me or someone pings me that something under $20 was donated, I’ll throw in the extra up to $20. So if you donate $7.50 I’ll donate $12.50.

I don’t have a lot since I already sent in an extra amount this time, but let’s cap it at $110.

So get to getting please!

*HUGE FReeper HUGS* to all that support this wonderful website, its founders and the patriots that visit here!
