    John McCain ^ | Aug. 28, 2008 | John McCain
    John McCain steps out of partisan politics to congratulate Barak Obama for his achievement on being the first African-American nominated by the DNC (or any party) for president of the United States on August 28th, 2008. After hearing all the negative, catty, petty, cheap shots from democrats today concerning McCain's choice for VP (Gov. Palin), which party has chosen the high road of bi-partisanship? Hint: It ain't the party with the donkey mascot!

    On 09/05/2007 a Freeper was born! Our daughter Anna Olivia weighed in at 8 pounds even and was 20-3/4 inches long. She's our first so wish us luck! At first I was very afraid that we had a democrat on our hands: ...but it was soon clear we had a sweet little conservative girl who will make an outstanding nun. We are home from the hospital and mom and baby are both doing fine.

    I have to share -- I took my last final as an undergraduate at 8 a.m. this morning. I graduate Saturday, cum laude, with a BA in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology. I'm 35, and this was a return to school as a homeschooling mom of twins :) I'm just so happy! And I start grad school next week LOL Just thought I'd share! I have no regrets over having put off the "college experience" -- I am a much better student now than I was as a "kid" -- and I can't imagine not having been home with my babies...

     Perhaps you're not aware of the kerfuffle between the Council on American-Islamic Relations (a group whose officials openly promote Islamic law in the United States) and the Young America's Foundation. YAF, it seems, invited one Robert Spenser to address their National Conservative Student Conference. CAIR is none too pleased. Spenser, you see, maintains a website called JihadWatch, and is the author of several books that would not be considered to be very friendly toward Islamic fascism. We have such titles as "The Truth About Muhammad: Founder of the World's Most Intolerant Religion" and "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam."...

It's not luck. America's armed services are under attack. From college campuses to the floor of the Senate, the Iraq war is portrayed as a quagmire, the Army is described as "broken," and our men and women in uniform are maligned as torturers. Hollywood keeps producing anti-war films, and the media celebrates liberal anti-military activists such as Cindy Sheehan. These critics fail to understand the...

    Jerusalem Post Online Edition ^ | Aug. 13, 2006 | Uriel Heilman
    As Israel pounded Hizbullah targets in southern Lebanon with bombs, artillery fire and advancing ground troops, some Lebanese at home and abroad were quietly applauding Israel's offensive. Most Lebanese oppose Israel's widespread bombardment of the country, and even those in the past who called for Hizbullah's disarmament have, in the face of Israel's military assault, lined up behind the Shi'ite militia. Yet a distinct minority of Lebanese are rooting for Israel to crush Hizbullah - silently if not explicitly. "I'm praying for flattening southern Lebanon," one Beirut native, Micheline Touma, told JTA recently after fleeing Lebanon for the United States...

    On Saturday, Gibson released a statement apologizing: "After drinking alcohol on Thursday night, I did a number of things that were very wrong and for which I am ashamed. I drove a car when I should not have, and was stopped by the L.A. County Sheriffs. The arresting officer was just doing his job and I feel fortunate that I was apprehended before I caused injury to any other person. I acted like a person completely out of control when I was arrested, and said things that I do not believe to be true and which are despicable. I am...

    A Waterloo man and his dog made a harrowing escape from the clutches of a vicious black bear Thursday while portaging near Wawa, Ont. Tom Tilley, 55, killed the nearly 200-pound bear by jumping on its back and stabbing the aggressive animal with a six-inch hunting knife after his dog alerted him and distracted the bear. "Love is a very powerful emotion and my thought right away was, 'You're not going to kill my dog,' " Tilley said yesterday. "I really consider my dog a hero. Without that first warning I would have had the bear clamping down on my...
