Current events reminded me of these predictions and inspired me to look them up again. If we are currently in "Obama's third term", might Charlie have been correct in his predictions but off target as to timing? Here is an article last updated in 2018 discussing his election 2016 predictions after the fact. The rumors of a possible Michelle Obama run add another twist. It looks like Charlie's original page is gone. August 2, 2015 at 9:30 pm **snip**Donette, I said bluntly on the Birmingham Video that President Obama will not finish his term. I said that he would be...

I can't remember if this is the best way to donate directly.

Just trying to be thoughtful. Maybe with some bananas and raspberries with a side of jerky?

Hi all, I think that saying that a Democrat might win the speakership is purely a scare tactic. From what I am reading, the speaker must win a simple majority of total votes cast, so 218 if all vote. If the dissenting Republicans vote for anyone other than McCarthy there is no way McCarthy can reach majority unless democrats vote for him. Representatives can vote for anyone. They are not limited to choosing between the nominees. As long as Republicans don’t vote for the Democrat nominee, the Democrat can’t reach majority either. As much as I detest the Rinos, I...

There is no question that Obama is thumbing his nose at the American people, congress, and the Constitution by selectively and brazenly refusing to enforce immigration law and by allowing his administration to block any attempts to stop various episodes of corruption even after they have been exposed (IRS, Benghazi, etc, etc). Some have proposed refunding the IRS or obamacare to 'send a message' that we won't tolerate that behavior. I support that idea but am doubtful that it will be done. I propose a more direct approach. Defund Obama. Take away his transportation to golf, his chef, his pantry,...

This is a time lapse of an AC130U gunship raining down fire on an enemy position.

Hi All, I'm a lurker who has been watching the 'countdown' threads SLOWLY creep toward the end of the CREEP, and I thought that we're finally getting close enough for an official countdown ticker...with hours, minutes, seconds until W is sworn in. I know there are Freepers out here that can do this, whether on the main FR site itself, or something that can be downloaded for our own computers. For those going to the Inauguration and the Freeper Ball, I can only say that I am extremely jealous, and if there were any way I could possibly be there, ...
