Free Republic

A friend found this posted on Facebook.  I have sensed that we are nearing a time when a majority of patriotic, liberty-loving, God-fearing Americans say, "Enough is enough."  Certainly this person is already there.  Let me know your thoughts: Historical ParallelsWhat the Founding Fathers DidWhat we should start doing--NOW ThenTotally corrupt monarchy, parliament and courtsStamp Act to suppress communication between the coloniesOppressive taxes to drive colonies to their kneesMandatory quartering of British soldiers in private homesAttempts to seize guns and ammo from the colonial militias (Lexington & Concord)Attempt to divide rebels from the loyalists TodayTotally corrupt White House, congress and...

Facing overwhelming enemy numbers and with no hope for help Colonel William Barret Travis took out his sword and drew a line in the sand before his battle-weary men. In a voice trembling with emotion he described the hopelessness of their plight and said, “those prepared to give their lives in freedom’s cause, come over to me.” Without hesitation, all but one man crossed the line. Even Colonel James Bowie, stricken with pneumonia, asked that his cot be carried over. It is time that we do the same to our Texas Representatives. We must demand that they quit kowtowing...

There are some practical reasons to be thankful.  According to coverage by Breaking Christian News, being “thankful” can give you: • Stronger immune systems and lower blood pressure • Higher levels of positive emotions • More joy, optimism and happiness • Acting with more generosity and compassion • Feeling less lonely and isolated When you are faced with very real problems (health, family, money) or just a general discouragement from a loss of Hope (or “change”), it takes an act of faith to be thankful when you don’t feel like it. Thankfulness is not just a "glass half full"...

We have the right ideas.  Even our worst guy (aka Mittens the Friendly GOP Ghost) should have walked away with the election given record unemployment, a crappy economy and an Executive who is, verifiably, a forger and Marxist.  It’s true Romney didn’t MAKE an issue of the things that would have made this a clear cut choice for the people.  As I’ve pointed out a zillion times, UCLA Professor Lynn Vavrick says that BIG IDEAS statistically trounce opponents in close elections.  (Aren’t you sorry you dumped on Newty now?) Anywho, we have 2 fundamental problems BEYOND the candidate we...

It has been steadily dawning on me this past weekend just how severe is the state of our disunion. Much of it precipitated by the battles of the valiant Allen West in his District 18 race in Florida. It is a microcosm of what we are facing as constitutional conservatives in this country and the forces that arrayed against us.   (Be sure to skip to the “How bad is it?” section below if you want to cut to the chase. In Allen West, you have a true conservative who not only is knowledgeable and articulate on the issues, but...

There is an enormity of evidence that voting machines across the country did not accurately record votes albeit from poll clerks, poll watchers or actual voters.  A common cry heard from those wanting to simply accept these results is “you’ll never be able to prove it.” Au contraire, mon frere.

font face="Verdana">My good friend Alan Vera of True the Vote told me long ago that we have a two party system.  The Corrupt Party and the Stupid Party.  To that fact, during the weekly True the Vote webcast, Catherine Engelbrecht related a meeting she had with RNC Chairman Reince Priebus, asking what the GOP would do about voter integrity.  The answer?Nothing.  They aren’t legally able to.  (I’m not joking.)Continued at: No Joke: The GOP Can Not Legally Help Stop Vote Fraud

In Lord of the Rings, on the road to destroy the Ring which threatened tyranny over people through centralized power and evil, Gandalf the Grey needed to buy time for his fellow hobbit warriors from the certain destruction by an evil Balrog.  On a narrow bridge, he sacrificed himself so that their mission could survive and challenged the superior evil force declaring, “YOU SHALL NOT PASS!”Today we are at the same point.  There is no now doubt of obvious and overwhelming vote fraud that guarantees the current and future will of We the People has been usurped.  I am...

  From: The National Black ProLife Union.Abortion doctor Ashutosh Ron Virmani referred to the black children that he kills as "ugly black babies." It's all too obvious that he has a particular disgust for black babies and therefore has no problems killing them.  Abortionist Ashutosh Ron Virmani said, "Let me see one of you adopt one of those ugly black babies," . The black community should be outraged because Ashutosh Virmani is a brazen racist and his statement supports what we already know of the billion dollar abortion industry--black babies  are targeted because they are seen as poor, worthless and...

A former Virginia candidate for US Senate says that Democrats intentionally use racial fear because they think African Americans can be manipulated. Bishop E.W. Jackson, President of STAND (Staying True to America’s National Destiny) says that Vice-President Biden’s comment, ‘They’re gonna put y’all back in chains,’” is not a gaffe. Jackson says: This is part of an intentional strategy to frighten black Americans. The first hint of this was a Democrat sponsored training class by Maya Wiley, President of The Center For Social Inclusion, given in May to House members. The class was to teach them how to decipher the...

Although I’ve been attacked by fellow conservatives, FINALLY someone is speaking the truth about Paul Ryan lack of true fiscal conservatism. And John Boehner’s reply – together with complicit cover ups by some conservatives – had better damn well wake the rest of you up who are partying as if the Ryan nomination means the election is over.The entire 50 second video is here, but I will paraphrase it:Greta Van Susteren: Ryan’s supposed to be a fiscal hawk. How does he explain his vote for the stimulus in ‘08, the auto bailout, and TARP?Speaker John Boehner: He’s not a knuckledragger...

I’m concerned about the unrestrained euphoria of conservatives who believe that the Tea Party is unstoppable and that the election will be a rout in November. As a Cub fan I haven’t dealt with it often, but I’ve heard that over confidence can lead to disaster. (Somehow the Cubs are able to invite disaster without it.)The TEA Party candidates lost Tuesday in Florida and Wisconsin. Even after flirting with attractions to elements of ObamaCare, former Governor Tommy Thompson won in Wisconsin. The Queen of TEA herself endorsed Rep. Sandy Adams but even that couldn’t create a repeat of the Texas...

As predicted, the Paul Ryan VP pick by Mitt Romney has not changed GOP support for Mitt Romney, nor has it substantially changed the opinion of Independent voters. The Economist/YouGov poll showed of those supporting Mitt Romney, 38% are doing so because of Mitt Romney, versus 61% motivated by voting against the President. That is only a 1% increase from 37% a week ago.Among Independent voters, Romney still leads the President by a double digit margin of 50% to 36% as opposed to 48%/37% a week ago.This isn’t surprising to PolitiJim readers who know that 43% of Americans simply have...

The sister company of FOX News is recalling history books that defend the Christian faith of Thomas Jefferson. Worse, the publisher NEVER called the author to allow him to defend or document his conclusions that were called into question by a liberal religious group that admitted they were against “conservatives in general.”CBN Video and interview here.FOX News has garnered an enormous audience since it began merely by catering to the conservative and independent viewer. While CNN is attracting it’s lowest audiences in history, FOX has continued to set viewership records. It is a common misdirect of the left that...

My conservative intellectual hero Professor Jacobson even went so far as to call those of us who aren’t doing cartwheels in our county precincts as “Eeyores” the famous Winnie the Pooh character who is always grouchy and negative. We don’t hate Paul Ryan. We are just realistic that Ryan’s role is nearly irrelevant not only in the election, but in the future Romney administration should that come to pass. Has Joe Biden really made a difference in appeal or policy to Barack Obama? Have you read the stories of the Clinton White House and how little Al Gore was...

Fellow RantPolitical.com blogger Jenny Craig (if that is her real name) asks the question, “Why Do Conservative Wingbags Hate Wind Energy?” Assuming that she is talking about wind power and not harnessing the flatulence of bovine bowel activity, I’m more than willing to help a fellow ranter out by answering her question. God knows SOMEONE needs to school her.She leaps off of Romney’s recent policy position that he wants to do away with wind energy tax incentives. She believes Romney (and by association every member of the GOP) are suddenly disconnected from scientific and economic reality for the following reasons:...

Guns and Patriots is a MUST subscription for 2nd Amendment and military afficianados. In this week’s newsletter a former Iraqi Freedom veteran recounts Allen West’s last shot in uniform. Since this isn’t a “web” article, but only the email preface to the OTHER posts for the week on G&P, I’d thought I’d share the blow by blow of badass Allen B. West’s last Iraqi interrogation and gun discharge here.Allen West has only made two severe errors (in my opinion) while representing a Florida Congressional District. He capitulated to John Boehner on the budget ceiling debate and he voted FOR NDAA,...

TSA is now conducting random check points at bus stations, (and ON random buses), as well as on freeways in Tennessee and elsewhere. PolitiJim’s Facebook page has steadily been document the encroachment of the growing police state where even city and county cops, think they have authority to arrest you for documenting their activities or even just exhibiting free speech.Hat tip to EconomicPolicyJournal who shared this video today of a US citizen who knows his rights and isn’t putting up with it anymore. Just an everyday citizen who will resist TSA and Federal government tyranny over his constitutional rights.VIDEO and...

The news from the “Caribou Coffee” emails has centered almost exclusively around the likely illegal acts by the White House to conduct lobbying offsite to deceive and subvert lobbying disclosure laws. That’s bad. But White House lobbying at Caribou Coffee isn’t the most criminal of the email disclosures. What is much more damning to me is this excerpt from those emails: “I will roll [P]elosi to get the 4 billion,” Messina told Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America lobbyist Jeffrey Forbes.“As you may have heard I am literally rolling over the house. But there just isn’t 8-10 billion.” Aside from...

 I’ve seen it advertised all over but have not yet read “The Amateur” by author Edward Klein yet. However, he gave an interview to CBN on The Brody File show (video at bottom of post) had a stunning recitation of his 3 hour, taped interview with “G-d Damn America,” Jeremiah Wright: KLEIN to Jeremiah Wright: Are you saying that you converted Barack Obama from Islam to Christianity?WRIGHT: “That’s hard to say.” Wright clearly gave the impression that A) Barack Obama was heavily devoted to Islam even when he came to America and that B) even Wright was convinced that he...
