Free Republic

Join us tonight on Freedom Radio 8 pm EDT as we welcome Mr. Andrew Stiles of National Review Online who will discuss his latest work on the proposed budget plan known as Cut, Cap and Balance. Watch here as Congressman Allen B, West of Florida explains his position on CCB.

Statement on Ghailani Verdict “Bad ideas have dangerous consequences. The Obama Administration recklessly insisted on a civilian trial for Ahmed Ghailani, and rolled the dice in a time of war. The Department of Justice says it’s pleased by the verdict. Ask the families of the victims if they’re pleased. And this result isn’t just embarrassing. It’s dangerous. It signals weakness in a time of war. The Ghailani trial was supposed to be a test case for future trials of 9/11 terrorists. We urge the president: End this reckless experiment. Reverse course. Use the military commissions at Guantanamo that Congress has...

Renee Ellmers of North Carolina's 2nd Congressional District, Congressman-elect Allen West of Florida's 22nd Congressional District, and WFTL talk-radio host Joyce Kaufman join us on Freedom Radio tonight, 8 to10 PM Eastern time. Our call-in number is 646 478 5613.

We will win around 3 score House races (including several long-time liberal Democrats), several Senate races, a slew of governorships, and this will be spun as a loss. We are fighting the Democrats on their dark blue turf, they have become the regional party, several states have returned to their red status (Florida, Virginia, Indiana, among others), and this will be spun as a loss. We are well positioned for 2012. The conservative movement is back and growing. Nancy Pelosi and her machine have been defeated. And the GOP moderates have their backs to the wall. And this will be...

Mark Levin fired off a blistering rebuttal on Facebook this morning aimed at a Politico.com reporter for asserting Sarah Palin "backed out of" a planned interview with Mark the morning she was scheduled to talk to him: "This is a flat out lie. Sarah Palin never backed out of any interview with me. Period. And John Martin, the reporter, never contacted me to ask me directly. I insist on a retraction."

Sharron Angle's new ad in the brutal Nevada race features Harry Reid among the glitterati as Nevadans struggle. (See the video; it is hilarious.)

We concur with North Carolina's Renee Ellmers that "The terrorists haven't won. We should tell them in plain English, 'No; there will never be a mosque at Ground Zero.'" Ellmers spoke with Freedom Radio about the mosque and her campaign to unseat Congressman Bob Etheridge: Last year, eight Muslim residents of her Congressional district were arrested for plotting to attack the Marine Corps Base in Quantico, Virginia which demonstrated the threat posed by the rise of radical Islamists here is a national security concern. Her opponent for North Carolina's 2nd District seat, Congressman Bob Etheridge, reportedly "has never thought building...

Freedom Radio tonight, Sunday, Oct 3, 2010, at 8 PM Eastern. David Limbaugh joins us to discuss 'Crimes Against Liberty; An Indictment of President Barack Obama', his #1 best-selling book. Leading off will be Peter Parente whose Gulf War "Gunny" Sergeant died a 9/11 hero as a Sergeant with the NYPD; Parente tasted and smelled "death in the air" days later as he and his crew recovered the strut from Flight 175 from the Burlington Coat Factory they now seek to replace with a mosque. Also with us will be Renee Ellmers who is running for Congress from the NC-2...

The 9 News link came to me via my Google alert for 'September 11'. As you will see, the museum also contains a gallery on that subject. In a city-owned museum in Loveland, Colorado, where school children often make field trips, there is a 12-panel lithograph entitled "The Misadventures of the Romantic Cannibals" which the artist defends and the city refuses to remove. Not everyone there is amused. "It depicts clearly a picture of our Lord Jesus Christ engaging in an oral sex act with another person," says Deacon Ed Armijo of St. John's The Evangelist Catholic Church. Deacon Armijo...

Former Marine and veteran Peter Parente lost his Marine Corps "Gunny" Sergeant, NYPD Sergeant Michael Sean Curtin of Rescue Truck 2 in the World Trade Center. He spoke with Steve Malzberg today. Within days after 9/11, Parente was part of crew that recovered the strut from United Airlines Flight 175 from where a mosque would now replace the former Burlington Coat Factory. He says, "That is 100% Ground Zero. It was Ground Zero that day and its still Ground Zero today. There was death in the air; I could smell it, I could taste it inside that building." Here is...

Hisham Elzanaty, the majority owner of the former Burlington Coat Factory, apparently is looking to use his controlling interest in the property to both force a sale of it and to move the planned mosque to an existing building further away from Ground Zero. Yet the story within the story is the stark evidence that mainstream media outlets are either blatantly in the tank for a mosque overlooking Ground Zero or ignorant of the facts with which to do credible reporting. Either way, the news divisions of the mainstream have not done their homework on Sharif El-Gamal, Imam Rauf, or...

The New York Post reports: The religious leader behind the proposed mosque near Ground Zero promised yesterday to allow the US government to sign off on anyone who donates to the $100 million project. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf told "60 Minutes" that to reduce fears that terror organizations would contribute to the project, he'll ask US officials to approve the sources of funding. Rauf added that the mosque and Islamic cultural center will have a board of directors that will include Muslims, Christians and Jews. Imam Rauf advocates for discriminatory and barbaric sharia law and that is be imposed here...

We received an email today about the Ground Zero mosque stating, "we will build our Victory Mosque ... We will even build it on top of your grave!" The IP for the sender indicates they accessed their email account via a computer at the University of Washington. Here is the email...

You see, this is how you make headlines and draw attention to yourself if your John Hinderaker, the Frick of Frick and Frack over at Powerline. He entitled his post -- "The Mark Levin Controversy." http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2010/09/027219.php I'd say Dan Riehl hit a nerve when he exposed Paul Mirengoff's half-truth as a complete fraud. Mirengoff claimed that I had told a half-truth when I said that he had supported the Harriet Miers nomination. He said that he had changed his position. But Dan Riehl, who dug into it for about 3 minutes, found that Mirengoff actually changed his position the day...

It's true! Castle voted with Democrats for a Bush impeachment resolution! As Mark said, this is stunning! Listen to the audio above and examine the links below.110TH CONGRESS 2D SESSION H. RES. 1258 Impeaching George W. Bush, President of the United States, of high crimes and misdemeanorsFINAL VOTE RESULTS FOR ROLL CALL 401

Writing in Malaysia's The Star Online earlier this year, Ground Zero mosque Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf scolded Christians for provoking Islamists into burning eleven of their churches to the ground: “Most recently that anger has surfaced in Malaysia, where 60% of the people are Malays. The High Court’s ruling that Allah is not exclusive to Muslims led to the fire bombing of some churches and protests among Malays, who fear Catholics are trying to manipulate the word to win Malay converts. ... My message to the Christian community in Malaysia is that using the word Allah to mean the Christian...

David Beamer, a 9/11 family member whose son Todd was among those who fought back aboard Flight 93, recently spoke out against the mosque planned for Ground Zero: "I sure believe that this mosque, if it happens, will be a memorial to the grand martyrs that accomplished their mission beyond their wildest dreams ... That will be a monument to celebrate and to remember who? To remember for sure the fifteen who completed their mission." Here is the video:

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg gave remarks last night at an Iftar dinner he hosted at Gracie Mansion, with Daisy Khan, wife of Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, and Ground Zero mosque developer Sharif el-Gamal in attendance. In part, Bloomberg said this: "If we say that a mosque and community center should not be built near the perimeter of the World Trade Center site ... we would undercut the values and principles that so many heroes died protecting. We would send a signal around the world that Muslim-Americans may be equal in the eyes of the law, but separate in the...

The dust clouds from the collapsing South and North Towers rapidly rolled out in all directions. Papers from the World Trade Center landed in Brooklyn and many homes and businesses there also had to be decontaminated. Human remains were found as far away as the East River. The streets were inch-deep with debris the length of Wall Street, which terminates at South Street near the historic Sea Port. The Burlington Coat Factory is less than 400 feet from World Trade Center Tower 7 which also collapsed. Those who say a mosque there would not be at Ground Zero are just...
