Free Republic

On the day after Easter, 2013, family, friends and FReepers from far and wide packed The Sweeney Funeral Home to share tears and the many tales of Doctor Raoul’s adventures in the cause of Theodore Roosevelt’s Americanism: “Americanism means the virtues of courage, honor, justice, truth, sincerity and hardihood – the virtues that made America.” In his tribute to Doctor Raoul, Kristinn relates from personal experience how Doctor Raoul lived his Americanism. Even though Doctor Raoul didn’t appear from behind a door and shout “April Fool”, his presence was everywhere. The 1957 Chevy hearse parked out front; the Philly soft...

Doctor Raoul died Saturday of a rare form of cancer. He was 58. Raoul's family contacted us this morning to see if they could find out more about his activities as an activist. This is such a shock. His family is looking for photos and stories about him. He is and always will be a Free Republic icon. He kind of fell off the face of the earth about 2 or 3 years ago now. All attempts we made to reach him failed. If you have photos please contact me. Please feel free to post stories and I will make...

<p>Kristinn and Dr Raoul have needled a naughty response from Bob Kerrey at the 9/11 conference. Dr Raoul is displaying a sign that says "If Osama was a piece of tail-Clinton would have nailed him. Kristinn is dressed as Sandy Berger, complete with Top Secret documents stuffed in his pants. When Kerrey arrived Kristinn asked him if Berger should go to jail. Raoul asked him if he was going to stay at the meeting or leave for more important matters. Kerrey gave them a look then ducked inside only to return outside to ask them who they were and what were their names. Kerrey then called Dr. Raoul an A*****e. When questioned on the language he stated that it was OK to curse because he isn't a politician.</p>

With new polls showing that more than half of Americans believe the war in Iraq is going badly and that Iraq will never become a stable democracy, you might think that anti-war groups in the U.S. would be trumpeting their influence. Instead, the groups appear to be caught in their own brand of civil war, criticizing each other for management styles, sympathizing with Communist dictators and pandering to the media. They have bickered over alleged racism and even over issues like who would get more microphone time and pay for the portable toilets at anti-war rallies. The feuding appears to...

Doctor Raoul got on the air to Laura Ingraham's radio show this morning about 9:48 or so EDT. That was in the first hour of the show. If it has a delayed broadcast in your area, check it out. Laura had been talking about Jimmy Carter and international inspections of the U.S. elections. I missed the beginning of Raoul's call, but when I came back to the radio he was talking about Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin. He discussed foreign leftists coming to the U.S. last year to pretend to be arms inspectors and condemn the U.S. for propaganda purposes....

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- As an experienced protester from the right, Raoul Deming has caused many politicians to become red-faced with frustration and rage.

Having been awakened by a phone call that Saddam had been captured, the first thing that jumped into my mind was "City Line Avenue". It was payback time for all the left wing looney tunes for their snarky remarks and unfounded wacko charges. At about 9 am, I took up my position outside the local NBC affiliate and across from the ABC affiliate there on City Line Avenue. That the stations were there was just a bonus, the main reason is that the intersection sees thousands of cars per hour. It's a main traffic artery west from Philadelphia to the...

<p>Code Pink is more than just a group of female protesters opposed to the "testosterone-poisoned" war rhetoric it says has spewed forth from the White House.</p> <p>We first wrote about these "purportedly peaceful ladies" last week, after a Maryland man claimed he was assaulted by Code Pink antiwar marchers — one of whom snatched his patriotic sign — at least six times. Code Pink's David Hoffman finds that charge hard to swallow.</p>
