Scozzafava Suspends New York Congressional Campaign Sarah Palin had the guts and the foresight to stand with Hoffman, the clear conservative, before anyone else, when he was a relative unknown. Now, as a result of her backing, he will win and others in the GOP have been scrambling to get on board her train and catch up with her ever since. That's leadership! Hehehe. Hey Barry, Nancy, and Harry...you can expect a lot more of the same to come. You too Newt. MANY MORE STICKER DESIGNS HERE "...like that grizzly guards her cubs, as a mother naturally guards her own....

I have challenged my kids to watch this in it's entirety. The movie can be viewed part 1 through 11 on you tube. When I hear Moa Te Tsung's name as someone to be admired by people in this administration, I realize that it can happen here. Their are too many signs that this administrations ideal of "change" could mean a future for our children and grandchildren just like the movie "China Cry".

I have not heard or seen any list of the already available health care programs such as CHIPS, Medicaid, Medicare, etc., as well as the myriad of State programs available. There are also many free clinics that the poor and immigrants (legal and illegal)

God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the HOPE offered to us may be greatly encouraged. Heb 6:18 Walking up to the Tea Party Express II gathering I was approached by a Braindead Lib or as we call them locally, a Peoples Republic of Portlander who read my "Stop Mao Now" sign and said, “What is M-A-O? I answered Mao. She axed, what is mao? I said, Mao Tse Tung? She axed, what is Mao Tse Tung? I said, The dictator...

Fellow Hoosiers: I submit this post on behalf of a friend of my family, who works for Sallie Mae, here in Indianapolis. I am asking for your thoughtful consideration in this matter, and if you agree with what's presented in the proposal on the http://www.protectindianajobs.com website, to please sign the electronic petition. The issue is this. There is legislation before the U.S. Senate right now, that would make all student loans government-run. If this legislation is signed into law, Sallie Mae would be severly affected, and undoubtedly hundreds of jobs would be taken from this state. Let's stop this madness,...

I have heard absolutely no one suggest that the Constitutional Amendment process should be iniated and employed to allow or disallow the government take over of the healthcare insurance industry. There are numerous other actions by the federal government that seem to be outside the restraints of the Constitution. Are we to a point where to require an amendment to the Constitution isn't even part of the conversation? Conservative means conserving the priciples in which this nation was founded. Even the Conservatives have not demanded the Constitutional Amendment process be implemented. Shouldn't our representatives demand this?

Here's a transcript of what's said: Unknown voice: "We need to change congress" Friedman: No, we don't need to change congress, excuse me. You know, people have a great misunderstanding about this. People in congress are in the business, they're trying to buy votes. They're in the business of competing with one another to get elected. The same congressman will vote for a different thing if he thinks that's politically profitable. You don't have to change congress. People have a great misconception in this way they think the way you solve things is by electing the right people. It's nice...

When we retake the majority, who do you want to lead the GOP in the House and Senate? Understanding that this is largely a measure of who wants to be a leader (not all the peeps we like want the headaches that come with leadership) and who is persistant enough to get what they want, who do you want to see step up and take the reigns? I want my party to reflect my beliefs. The current leadership does not voice my beliefs and are not even close to voicing my burning anger at the corruptocrats that inhabit DC. Boehnor...

I do not post a whole lot, so I hope there aren't major violations here.. Just an observation from this morning - I was hoping to have a YouTube to post by now, sadly the only supporting evidence I've found is something of a vanity post over at the DUmpster. Long Story Short - Got up early this morn and watched a bit of Sesame Street with the little man and there was a skit on regarding GNN "grouchy news network"(Oscar the Grouch). There were what seemed to be a lot of allusions to FNC - but I wrote it...

Since it appears that the judicial branch is intent on abandoning it's duty to uphold the Constitution, perhaps it's time for the states themselves to individually pass legislation that will protect their citizens from the actions of anyone who illegally occupies the Oval office. There is nothing to prevent a state from passing a law requiring that the President must file his PROOF of meeting eligibility requirements with the state and that such a filing is open to public challenge in court. Such a law could stipulate that any legislation signed by a President who refuses or is unable to...

ABC News' Pentagon correspondent Luis Martinez reports that Barack Obama brought twenty-four reporters, photographers and videographers from fourteen media outlets to Dover Air Force Base to cover his 'surprise' visit there early Thursday morning.The New York Times reported earlier that there was a "small contingent" of media at Dover. However, two dozen is a crowd, especially when vulnerable grieving families are involved.Liz Cheney is being attacked (and here) for pointing out that Obama imposed the question of media coverage on the families by his presence at Dover. Seventeen out of the eighteen families of the fifteen soldiers and three DEA...

Tea Party Patriots 2012 Presidential Poll Who do you think would make a great conservative president? (Consider only their commitment to the constitution, charisma and personal integrity. Do NOT consider their ability to win.)

I searched and didn't find one so... Freepers: We need to get this Bill posted and split up into parts to contribute to the vetting process. It took considerable time to go through the first one and additional time is needed to get media attention focused on the findings. The more people reading the better. And Keyword searches can be a useful method for finding buried items.

Conservative columnist and radio host Andrea Shea King had her Radio Patriot site at Google's Blogspot taken offline last night by Google.King had maintained the Radio Patriot at Blogspot for over three years. The site was taken down without warning and without explanation. King's efforts to contact Google have been for nought so far. Attempts to bring up the site get this message:Blog has been removed Sorry, the blog at radiopatriot.blogspot.com has been removed. This address is not available for new blogs.King is a vocal opponent of Barack Obama. She has posted many entries criticizing his presidency and reporting on...

What an interesting experience it has been trying to leave comments at the GOP website. http://www.gop.com/ Almost like dealing with the GOP for real, shouting into the wind. Your website allows almost no feedback except to comment on 'Problems with this page?" THIS is the only way to leave Feedback? WTF? Too focused on your own political futures to listen to those who could support you? I joined your website only to express my dismay with your choice of candidate for the NY 23 District. This type of candidate is why I left the Republican party 30 years ago, and...

LOS ANGELES (AFP) – Technology and media stars, pundits, and entrepreneurs joined the Internet's father on Thursday to celebrate the 40th anniversary of his culture-changing child. "It's the 40th year since the infant Internet first spoke," said University of California, Los Angeles, professor Leonard Kleinrock, who headed the team that first linked computers online in 1969. Kleinrock led an anniversary event at the UCLA campus that blended reminiscence of the Internet's past with debate about its future. "There is going to be an ongoing controversy about where we have been and where we are going," said Arianna Huffington, co-founder of...

Barack Obama was nearly denied the photo-op he traveled to Dover Air Force Base for early this morning as all but one of the military and civilian families of the fallen refused permission for the media to report on the return of their loved ones.The sole family to allow media coverage was the family of Sgt. Dale R. Griffin.According to media reports, Griffin's casket was the last to be brought off the C-17 cargo plane that carried the bodies of 15 soldiers and 3 DEA agents killed this week in Afghanistan.That is a stark contrast to the reported 60% approval...

Freep this poll the White House is accusing Fox News of not being a legitimate source of news, calling them biased, etc. They have tried to block Fox reporters from news conferences, etc., but the other news networks are fighting back (in favor of Fox) and caused the White House to back down. NPR has put a survey online for us to voice our opinion. If you want to vote in this survey, go to the link below and cast your vote. Currently it is 71% in favor of the White House, but there are not that many votes ............

Obama now fully owns the economy. No matter how bad his economic policies hurt the U.S. economy in the Spring, it was very difficult to quantify how much of the recession was his fault, and how much could be blamed on the Bush-Kennedy-Pelosi administration; the faster the economy sank, the lower the bar would be for him to claim credit for its recovery. Now that the recession is "over," however, he must take full blame for another recession. The depression is not over, however. This Spring, I warned Freepers not to be fooled by a 3rd-quarter "recovery." The economy hasn't...

On last night's O'Reilly Factor (Oct 27, 2009), Bill O'Reilly sat stupidly while Lis Wiehl made several conspicuously false statements regarding the facts related to Obama's birth documentation. Referring to the "birthers", Ms. Wiehl stated that "It's this whole movement that says that Obama was elected from a bad, unconstitutional point of view because he was not born in the United States. That's been litigated. Congress investigated. His birth document from Hawaii was shown." First, regarding "That's been litigated" this case has never actually been heard in open court (because the plaintiffs have been denied standing). Second, regarding "Congress investigated."...

We want each of you to show the same diligence to the very end, in order to make your HOPE sure. Hebrews 6:11 America is at a crossroads in histoir. All the dark forces are pulling w/the Marxists trying to convince America they aren’t who they are. Fortunately they are exposed for exactly who they are in all areas. Their grand 30 yr plan has been exposed as they have turned this Country into their smoking hull of what used to be the SS America. Of all the surprises the, weakest among us have become the biggest threat to their...

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) has spent tens of thousands of dollars in the three-way NY-23 race to support pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, pro-taxation, pro-stimulus DIABLO candidate Dede Scozzafava, who has refused to promise not to run as a Democrat next year if she loses the Republican primary as expected. That's bad enough, but at least many of the ads so far have focused on attacking the Democrat, which we can all agree upon. Rumors posted to NRO and elsewhere are saying that this weekend things will change, and hundreds of thousands of NRCC dollars will pour into the district...

Alleged Sarah Palin hacker, Kernell to wait another six months for trial by Robert McMillan, Security Blanket Tue, 2009-10-27 23:32 Topic(s): Data Protection It shouldn't come as a surprise, given all the motions flying before Judge C. Clifford Shirley, but alleged Sarah Palin hacker David Kernell's trial has been moved back six months. It was set to start today, but it turns out the judge moved it to April 20 2010 a few weeks back. Looks like there are about a dozen motions before the judge right now, including five motions to dismiss the indictment. Kernell was fingered as the...

Marin California has Conservatives. It may not be much but it’s a start. Marin County Ca. just north of San Francisco has its own Conservative group. They are the one responsible for the San Francisco Tea Parties and protest committees for both Obama and Sen. Boxer when they made appearances in the area. Information is spread through several websites including the Marin Conservative Forum http://www.meetup.com/Marin-Conservative-Forum/. You may want to join and leave your two cents worth on lively discussions. If you live in or around the Bay Area you may want to join this group to help turn the tide...

SINGAPORE (Reuters Life!) – For those who value their freedom of expression as much as health, wealth, and prosperity, then Finland is the place to be, with an index ranking the Nordic nation the best in the world. The 2009 Legatum Prosperity Index, published on Tuesday and compiled by the Legatum Institute, an independent policy, advocacy and advisory organization, ranked 104 countries which are home to 90 percent of the world's population. The index is based on a definition of prosperity that combines economic growth with the level of personal freedoms and democracy in a country as well as measures...

I just got a fund raising email from Hoffman. He mentioned ONE and only ONE person that was supporting him. Here is the line from the email: "Tim Pawlenty did his research and he has endorsed Doug." No mention of Sarah, No mention of Fred or any other real conservative. That really bothered me. Pawlenty isn't very conservative and is a late comer to supporting Hoffman. In fact, he didn't support Hoffman until the tide had turned and he came out with his first lead in a poll. Hoffman could easily have supplied a link to Fred's commercial or Sarah's...

I was just in our excercise room at work riding the stationary bike and watching FoxNews. They were covering the New Jersey governor's race and they referred to the Democrat (Corzine) and Replublican (Christie) candidates by name every single time they were mentioned. However, the used the term "third party candidate" in an almost derogative fashion at least 6 or 7 times and only once mentioned Chris Daggett by name. And then when the lady mentioned his name she made a "scrunchy face" of seemingly disapproval and then went on to talk about what a spoiler he was and how...

I'm not in the position for making any huge investments, and this might be in the category of just plain ignorant, but I figure this proposal might at least prompt some interesting discussion, and if its plausible, someone should do it: The Tesla gets about 220 miles per charge. Great... if you're going somewhere less than four hours away. But if the S-class (a $50,000 "family car") is going to be someone's main car, they're certainly going to want to take longer trips with it. The problem is the car takes 8 hours to charge with 110 volts. By doubling...

My prepubescent 11 year old son was solicited for homosexual sex by a 15 year old male on the schoolbus two weeks ago. The police, led by the school resource officer, are charging the perp with assault, and I'm waiting to hear from the DA whether the charge will be upgraded to sexual assault. The perp admitted to all of it to the school administration and the sheriffs deputy so there's no debate on guilt. The problem is that the school administration isn't interested in suspending, expelling or otherwise punishing this perp. By all accounts--especially my son's--this perp hasn't had...

SEDIMENT cores from a small Arctic lake in Canada stretching back 200,000 years show unprecedented gains in global warming since 1950, indicating human activity is the likely cause. "The past few decades have been unique in the past 200,000 years in terms of the changes we see in the biology and chemistry recorded in the cores,'' University of Colorado glaciologist Yarrow Axford said. "We see clear evidence for warming in one of the most remote places on Earth at a time when the Arctic should be cooling because of natural processes." Mr Axford is the chief author of the study...

WASHINGTON – Have you heard that the world is now cooling instead of warming? You may have seen some news reports on the Internet or heard about it from a provocative new book. Only one problem: It's not true, according to an analysis of the numbers done by several independent statisticians for The Associated Press. The case that the Earth might be cooling partly stems from recent weather. Last year was cooler than previous years. It's been a while since the super-hot years of 1998 and 2005. So is this a longer climate trend or just weather's normal ups and...

I'm a huge Beck fan, in fact I'm listening right now here http://www.ksfa860.com/common/gap_streamer.php but something really confuses me. It takes the ability to use real critical thinking to know what Beck (and most of us know about the state of the country and where we are heading). That is, we have the ability to discover the truth no matter how much the media or conventional wisdom try to hide it. Yet on Mormonism, Beck is cleary wrong. Any Christian knows that the book or momonism is severely flawed and that Joseph Smith was no prophet. How can Beck cut through...

We are approaching the time of year that Time's "Man of the Year" will be discussed and debated. I'm thinking that the biggest story of 2009 is the re-emergence of the Great Silent Majority, as represented by the town-hallers and then the Tea Partiers. I know there are many who could be credited with lighting the match that made these trends happen. If I had to single out one individual and one "call to arms", I'd give it to Rick Santelli on CNBC with the "rant heard round the world." So my recommendation to Time: give it to the Tea...

To The Editor: I am bothered by almost everything our new president has done, but one item is, by far, the most toxic: • Not the ‘Cap and Trade’ tax, which will dramatically drive up the cost of gasoline, heating fuel and electricity. • Not the proposed takeover of the entire medical profession. • Not his proposed presidentially-controlled “civilian” army with his own estimated cost equal to one half the current military budget. • Not the control of major industries such as banks, brokerage firms, Chrysler and General Motors. • Not the ‘Pay Czar’ who will oversee the salaries of...

Yes, it is THE uberputz Alan Grayson, the nutbag who has called Republicans everything from murderers to "enemies of America", and compared the American healthcare system (of which 71% of Americans were satisfied) to "the Holocaust". Well now he has himself a "moneybomb" site (his words) to try and raise tons of cash, which he will certainly need since he is now Enemy #1 of the RCCC. This site is for folks to make pledges of support. So let's have a bit of fun. You can pledge up to $4800. Let's make as many pledges as we can. It currently...

Barbara from Harlem and her co-host discuss some critical issues in their new on-line only broadcasts entitled "Invisible Shackles" and "Stand up and Speak Out." Issues such as black people always using racism as an excuse and President Obama's attempt to demonize his opposition are discussed. I believe these 2 broadcasts are important to listen to, digest and share with others. Due to the fact that Barbara's family has voted as Democrats since the 1930s and Barbara herself was involved in local democratic party politics, her insights and analyses about what is plaguing inner-city America are particularly useful. However, "Invisible...
