Free Republic

The time has come for America to make a choice. The arch enemy of Socialism is Individual Rights. The 08 election has become a referendum that will determine which path America will take. As the primary issues are presented IE immigration, economy or the wars that are currently taking place, everyone wants to discuss the stance each candidate will take. The media will parse the words and regurgitate them in light of “how” the candidate has either voted or expressed himself on related issues. They might draw a line indicating that on “XYZ” issue the candidate is conservative or liberal...

Both Houses of Congress and the Executive Branch are exempt from security or background investigation for a Security Clearances as are elected Officials and / or Appointees. All Police Departments and a plethora of Governmental Security Agencies, intelligence as well as investigative, rightfully scrutinize their employees, counterparts and support staff in an effort to assure maximum security. This legal enforcement of passing Security criteria extends to all branches of the Military, their support Contractor’s staff and the Judicial System. This also extends to the State and County as well as any governmental agency that deals in anyway with any information...

Reverend Wright has said his Piece. Why can’t the media and the campaign supporters, of every stripe, accept the fact that Jeremiah Wright has said his peace and now, it’s time to go on to other things? In defense of his own indefensible and crude remarks, he has told us that he quotes the General counsel for the Iraq war, Jesus and several other individuals of note including Luis Farrahan. The things he says are not unique to him they are representative of a higher order of thought, Black Liberation Theology, which is something that “whites” in this Country simply...

Do you like paying Sky High Gas Prices? Thank A Democrat. Of all the campaign issues that the candidates are not talking about, gas prices lead the list. On the heels of the worst housing slump since WWII our economy faces an even bigger threat; Loss of mobility. This is obvious to anyone who needs to fill up their transportation yet the elite, those who create the environmental dictates American’s must contend with couldn’t care less. They refuse to even engage the subject as they attempt to lie their way into the White House. Where are the new refineries, nuclear...

Hillarie’s Victory Speech said it all. Listening to Hillary Clinton has an undesirable effect on anyone that approves of or is proud to be an American. Last night, in her Pennsylvania Victory speech, she read off a brief Latinity of those who had preceded her.

Recently, in his continued effort to win Primaries, as if there is anything remotely like a Primary allowed for in the Constitution, Obama uttered words that make rational American’s cringe. He said that residents of small-town America “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them” out of bitterness over lost jobs. It is as if we have nothing else to cling to! Some of us also cling to a ballot box as well. At one time, America was known as the “Land of the free and home of the Brave”. My, how things do change.

Daddy Obama If the government is going to tax, monitor and control everything in a citizen’s life, then they have an obligation to look after the citizen from cradle to grave; this is Daddy Obama’s message. Daddy Obama is so impressive that he causes swooning on the part of his followers. Make no mistake, these are not simply supporters; those who fall under Daddy Obama’s spell are morphed into devotees who are worshipping at the alter of Barack. This man cultivates the image and is successfully envisioned as everyone’s Daddy who has graciously offered himself in the position of President....

Which Candidate is most Corrupt?

To date, the effects, reasons, solutions and a plethora of blame has been hypothesized as a means of coping with Global Warming. What is the real cause of Global warming? Why hasn’t it been realized before now and what can we do to halt the ever so intense and well publicized, effects of it. In 1971, much social upheaval was centered over awareness of the Planet and the various problems brought on by man An awareness day was set up and the first Earth Day was generated. At that time, the huge issues addressed by the sponsors of Earth Day...

A small town in West Central Florida during the Christmas season of 06-07. A small community located between Clearwater and Tampa boasting roughly 17,000 residents within City limits. Safety Harbor is best known for the Spa which is almost a City within a City where celebrities play. Outside of the Spa, Main Street is decorated with lights, larger than life foil candles on the light posts, a Huge Christmas tree near the gazebo at the center of town as well as a Menorah both in the door of City Hall and the park land surrounding the gazebo. All was most...

At some point, while no one was looking, someone has had to have replaced the Constitution with something less. Is the term “Compelling State Interest” not in direct opposition to the term “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union…..” Something very dreadful has happened and is happening still. How can the State have a compelling interest in anything but the will of the people? The State is not an entity with a will of its own. It is comprised of the People so how can it have a compelling interest of its...

A pre-election year is always more politically pronounced then others as Americans are busy taking a national inventory to see which candidate best reflects their beliefs. Traditionally, Congress can get away with a lot, and this one has pushed that limit further then most. They now have less than a 14% popularity rating to show for it. Earmarks, non binding resolutions and a severe budget problem plague this current Congress! It seems that one significant issue may have slipped through the cracks; they have forgotten to charge themselves with Treason. Whether your reaction to that comment is a gasp or...

Merry Christmas! Didn’t you get enough the first time? Of all the rotten, no account tricks for which, the Clinton’s have been accused, the 1994 Christmas Tree stunt tops them all. Who can forget the reports of Mrs. Clinton hanging sex toys from the White House Christmas Tree? As with everything else, surrounding the Clinton’s, these reports could not be confirmed and were probably denied by some meaningless White House staffer at the time. Forget the Whitewater affair. Don’t worry about an entire stack of FBI files found in the White House residence. Sure, Chuck Colson did some time in...

Less than a month ago, Congress planned to ram through a tobacco tax that would have all but killed the cigar industry. The outrageousness of the tax they intended to levee on tobacco products was intended to be crippling. Cigarettes as well, were to sustain a .50 to $1.50 per pack increase. Ostensibly, this tax was to fund a health care package for children. The link between socialized health care for kids and tobacco smokers has not yet been made clear, not so for the intentions of Congress. Recently, rumor has it that Mike Huckabee who has billed himself as...

Consider the latest fad perpetuated by, or at least partner of the Progressive Left agenda; Atheism. Here we have all the ingredients of the flashiest and most delicate means yet of evading morality ever conceived. Why, the Atheist has it made! Who can question another’s faith whether it be Christian, Buddhist, Mormon or Jew or any other faith? The topic is out of bounds as it should be. The Spiritual basis for one’s faith should never be questioned. This legally enforced right holds true when the topic is one of faith but the entire context of the discussion changes when...
