Former CIA Director John Brennan said that he didn’t mean President Trump had committed treason when he called Trump’s press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin “nothing short of treason." Brennan clarified the comment during an interview Friday, after MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow said Brennan said the press conference “rose to treason.” The former CIA director disputed the characterization of his "treason" tweet, saying that he felt compelled to make the comment after Trump sided with Putin’s denials of Russian election interference. “And for Mr. Trump to so cavalierly so dismiss that, yes, sometimes my Irish comes out and in my...

In his prime-time speech to the nation on the eve of the 13th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks, President Obama vowed to “degrade and destroy” the Islamic State insurgency in Iraq and Syria with airstrikes and 475 U.S. boots on the ground – but he also made a particular point of declaring that the Islamic State terrorists “are not Islamic.” “Now let’s make two things clear: ISIL is not Islamic,” Obama said, speaking from the state floor of the White House residence. “No religion condones the killing of innocents, and the vast majority of ISIL’s victims have been...

Dear folks, You guys are good. Real good. You are truly a force on World Wide Web and I tip my hat to you. That's based on my first hand experience of your work regarding our CNBC Republican candidate debate. After the debate, we put up a poll on our Web site asking who readers thought won the debate. You guys flooded it. Now these Internet polls are admittedly unscientific and subject to hacking. In the end, they are really just a way to engage the reader and take a quick temperature reading of your audience. Nothing more and nothing...

Besieged author Ed Klein is preparing to defend his work this week when he hits the promotional circuit for TRUTH ABOUT HILLARY. Klein publisher as upped the book's launch to nearly 350,000 copies, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT. [The book ranked #26 on AMAZON.COM's hourly sale chart late Sunday.] Klein will sensationally claim Bill Clinton is flagrantly cheating on his senator wife. "Hillary's aides noticed that Bill seemed to grow even more reckless after his memoir MY LIFE became a big bestseller. Thanks to his record-shattering $12 million book advance plus another $10 million in speaking fees, he was rolling...

Bob Barr recently announced that he will be supporting the Libertarian candidate over Bush. However, his book, The Meaning of Is, is still one of several rotating ads on the right panel on several FR pages. This seems like an honest oversight to me. I hope the Admins will rectify this and pull traitor Barr's ad from the panel.

Received my copy of Bob Barr's new book, The Meaning of IS today. Kristinn forwarded it to me after meeting with Bob Barr and getting it autographed for me. Thank you Kristinn! Bob signed the book as follows: "For Jim Robinson Thank you for your leadership that made the impeachment possible. - Bob Barr" Thank you Bob Barr!! Thought I'd better share this with the FReepers, because I didn't make this happen. YOU did!! Thank you all very much!! I haven't read the entire book yet, but I skimmed through it immediately after removing it from the package and...

It’s said that those in power are the ones to write the history books, but this isn’t always true, according to the evidence.  The few serious books about the Impeachment of William Jefferson Clinton were written by advocates for Clinton’s removal from office. The newest book is from former Congressman Bob Barr, a republican from Georgia.  Many have encouraged Mr. Barr to write his version of events because those who worked hard to bring Clinton’s high crimes misdemeanors to the attention of the public know that Congressman Barr was the insider who led the charge.  Barr’s well-timed book is entitled,...

WASHINGTON - Bob Barr, the first congressman to call for President Clinton's impeachment, plans to publish a book next month detailing his own version of the events. The Georgia Republican and House impeachment manager made the announcement Monday, one day before Clinton's autobiography was set to hit the shelves. Barr's book, being released in mid-July from Stroud & Hall, is entitled, "The Meaning of Is: The Squandered Impeachment and Wasted Legacy of William Jefferson Clinton." In the book, Barr presents a rebuttal to Clinton's position that his impeachment was a "badge of honor." He calls it a "disgrace of historic...
