I believe that the ruling class politicians see Palin as a real threat to their status quo, and her postponement of announcing her candidacy as a hindrance to their stopping her. One way to force her hand earlier than she intends is to move up the primaries. Anybody else see a pattern here?

A foreigner, a Muslim and a Marxist walk into a bar. The bartender says, "What can I get you, Mr. President?"

From Google Translate: Mystery explosion and Esteban Echeverría, "a ball of fire fell from heaven" One woman died and six others were injured in the incident. A neighbor said the outbreak was caused by a burning object that fell from the sky and completely destroyed a house and several cars. "It was a tremor," he said. Are the causes of the accident.

We have control of the house of Representatives. They control the purse strings. The source of all spending bills. Right? Can anyone tell me why the Republican controlled house rubber-stamps spending that continues to fund... Department of Education Department of Agriculture The Energy department Housing and Urban Development Labor Relations Board EPA Corporation for Public broadcasting How about they take just one department and cut the entire budget? Make the Democrats defend and explain just exactly what would be lost if the entire budget of the Department of Education were cut. Republicans need to prove that they are the party...

This site is broken when people like me are blocked for stating the obvious. What is the obvious? ask me privately because the "free" "republic" will keep us from discussin it in the "forum"

Bieber spoke to Life & Style magazine about his affinity for ladies' jeans. "I've worn women's jeans before because they fit me. It's not a trend; it's just, whatever works, works." Again, Justin says this isn't a trend, so if everybody starts wearing Not Your Daughter's Jeans, don't blame him. . Bieber was responding to a question about Kanye West's decision to wear a women's sweater. "It wasn't (so he'd) look like a woman in a sweater; it was just a regular sweater that happened to be a woman's.". An article from the Yahoo! Contributor Network points out that Justin...

Again, this site "provides" many legitimate options for posting one's opinion. You can even come all the way to bloggers, and then even add weird stuff, all just to warn the average Rick Perry supporter that their false beliefs just might be questioned. But even under weird blogger a simple thread with a simple question gets pulled. Folk's, ive been a registered member of this site for 12 years. i am not someone who lives here, sorry. i registered here because i care. i troll here because i care...and i know my posting "privileges" will be pulled.

Just heard a Fighter Jet Gaining speed. Scanned the skies and saw it flying West from Moffet Field. Anyone else hear it? Why take off now?

What happened to the American Grand Jury, that went to lengths of inditing OVOMIT?

On Friday, August 26, 2011, a group of New Yorkers were startled to see multiple UFOs hovering in the dark night sky above New York City. This UFO sighting took place just one day before Hurricane Irene was expected to wreak havoc on the area. The witnesses observed at least 8-10 UFOs high above the city. One of the men was able to capture the sight on video. The unidentified flying objects seemed to remain nearly stationary for the entire length of the video, nearly three minutes, but there is some slight movement overhead. Each UFO seems to be glowing...

Are any other FReepers attending the Burning Man festival next week? I'm going with some other patriots to explore and spread our Founding Fathers' message of true freedom through limited government. We haven't named our camp yet since this is the first year. I'd love to hear your advice too. Freepmail me if you are interested in joining forces out there. -V

Why take the infidel by force when you can invent a great tasting soft-drink, market it to the American male and make him impotent? This is known as Humane Jihad and does not bode well for America going forward.

Rising greenhouse emissions may tip off aliens that we are a rapidly expanding threat, warns a report for Nasa It may not rank as the most compelling reason to curb greenhouse gases, but reducing our emissions might just save humanity from a pre-emptive alien attack, scientists claim. Watching from afar, extraterrestrial beings might view changes in Earth's atmosphere as symptomatic of a civilisation growing out of control – and take drastic action to keep us from becoming a more serious threat, the researchers explain. This highly speculative scenario is one of several described by scientists at Nasa and Pennsylvania State...

A mysterious circle on a grainy scan, this is what scientists are claiming is finally evidence that Earth has been visited by aliens. Researchers have claimed the fuzzy outline is a flying saucer that ended up 300ft down on the ocean floor between Sweden and Finland. They were stunned when sonar scans taken while searching for a century-old wreck showed up the shape against the dirt.

In presenting his new film, Prometheus, at Comic-Con, Ridley Scott was torn between building excitement for the presumed Alien prequel and keeping the project shrouded in secrecy. “Ridley has been sort of very cryptically obtuse about everything, and he will probably kill us if we say too much about the movie,” screenwriter Damon Lindelof said. “If you were looking for answers, you came to the wrong place.” Theron was equally circumspect. When asked if she could share any details about her character, Meredith Vickers, she replied, “No, I can’t, sorry. I’m just here to be pretty.” One thing Lindelof did...

Liberals have me ready to smash a marshmallow in anger, so I need to argue fruitlessly about trivial things. Perhaps I like my philodendron better than my spider plant and MAYBE cheesecake is preferable to chocolate. I will close my blinds and await the onslaught. Take it easy on me. But not too easy.

I'm so sad because I really love her," Jesse told People. "The distance between us was just too much." The couple, who got engaged in January, previously told the mag they were planning a summer wedding. Jesse's engagement to Kat came less than a year after splitting with Oscar winner Sandra Bullock, following an infidelity scandal on his part.

A mysterious ice ball has appeared in Milovice forest in the Czech Republic, with some reports suggesting it could be an 'alien' object. The giant hailstone measures an impressive 2m in diameter, according to the Examiner, and a witness was able to take a video of the spectacle to pop up on YouTube. This supposed 'alien' ice block was discovered in the Czech Republic (YouTube) Judging by the shakiness of the film, the witness presumably believes it really could be some form of UFO, a view seemingly supported by the news provider, which received a tip-off about it from...
