I have a friend who is a fellow conservative in a world of liberals and asked me to help them out. Her 9-year old Child has designed a re-usable bag for the Kroger Company, the winner will have their design be on all the bags nationwide at King Soopers, Smiths, Krogers, etc.. The design goes with the phrase "HE's got the whole world in his hands" which is a Christian message among all the liberal and far-left wing messages on the other bags. If fellow freepers can help us out by voting daily I would appreciate it! The link is:...

I just have two simple questions. 1) What Civil/Criminal Lawsuits are ready to go to halt this unconstitutional law. 2) Where do I sign up to be a complaintaint. As just about every knows, this "Reform" is anything but reform, it is a simple blatent takeover of our economy and health by anti-american socialists who care for the power they will hold over our heads then they care about getting re-elected. This is our "Tea Party", this is our Alamo. We must stop this before it leads to a real and hot Civil War.

They are attempting to "Bypass" the constitution and not allow states...

<p>A verdict has been reached in the trial of a lawsuit between Michael Jackson and a former associate. A lead with the decision will be expedited. The reading is expected to be a lengthy process.</p>

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - The Ohio Supreme Court on Wednesday threw out the death sentence of a man who strangled and stomped a 76-year-old man during a robbery, saying the killer’s chaotic childhood with abusive parents, along with other factors, outweighed the crime’s brutality. The 4-3 opinion also noted that Troy Tenace, 44, expressed remorse when he confessed to police in 1994, and that if he receives the maximum sentence, he won’t be eligible for parole until age 96. Any one factor alone would not have resulted in reversing the death sentence, but the combination of the three is enough...

A Liberal Professor of Northern Kentucky University violated not only State Constitution, State laws, Federal Constitution, Federal and state hate laws, 1st Amendment violations, and Criminal Vandalism laws, but also forced her students, during class, to also violate every law in the book because of her personal politics, hatred, bigotry, and genocidal inclinations. She had her students destroy a Pro-Life demostration because she did not agree with it.. how's that for left-wing tolerance? It's the typical Liberal Hyprocracy, Do what I order you to do, but anything I do is fine. Here is the story from the Northern Kentucky University...

Britain’s defense secretary says international terror has the potential to become civilization’s most dangerous enemy because al-Qaida fighters have access to destructive modern technology. Because of that, Secretary John Reid suggested Wednesday night, international law, including the Geneva Conventions that set the laws of war, should be strengthened and expanded, not abandoned. As important as ideological and cultural aspects are to the conflict, Reid said, “the nature of the enemy and its tactics and philosophy” lead to “the utter lack of constraint. Legal, moral, conventional self-discipline.” Speaking to the Council on Foreign Relations, Reid said terrorists of the 20th century,...

WASHINGTON House Democrats want President Bush to say whether he knew of what they call a "fundamental constitutional problem" with the $39 billion deficit reduction package he signed last month. A letter to Bush, signed by House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi and Rep. Henry Waxman of California and released Thursday, is the latest challenge to a bill that was passed in slightly different forms by the House and Senate before it was sent to Bush. "A bill is not law unless the same version is passed by both the House and the Senate and signed by the president," top Democrats...

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Citing financial irregularities, the state Ethics Commission has handed out a small fine to U.S. Rep. Russ Carnahan and a much larger one to the Missouri House Democratic Campaign Committee. The commission fined Carnahan $600 and the Democratic committee $104,000 for various campaign finance violations.

This is an Interesting factoid. It seems that with all the concerns about the Environment, Global Warming, and Pollution being pushed into our faces by Liberals, it turns out it is the Liberals themselves who are the problem. We already know that Liberals will trash a field when they hold a protest, demanding that everyone clean up for them as picking up trash is too difficult, while Conservatives will pick up their own trash before leaving an area. The EPA held studies during the 1990's (The Clinton years) and found that all the Areas controlled by Liberal Democrats are the...
