WHY? I mean, have we been reduced to THIS? Is America this far gone? We seemed like we were on top of the world, then WHAM. My goodness, this is tragic and horrific. I can't believe my eyes. It's like a slow motion car wreck. What can we do to stop it? I don't know, I only pray we can come up with an idea. This is the single worst thing to ever happen. Never before in history!... and probably never again. We will be written about, and scholars will speculate what caused all of this. It's utter damnation on...

I like this guy. I really like this guy. He is my homeboy and I love what he says and the way he talks back to the weasels gives me a feeling I want to believe. But, what has he really done? OK, he's got a cute family and all that, and the libturds haven't found any pix of him smoking a bong on the interwebs, or found out he got busted for something creepy. That's all beauty but I don't really know all that much about the dude.

OK. I may be missing something here. But back in high school, when I took a course in Business Law, I learned that in order to be enforceable, a contract requires that there be consideration in exchange for value. So if you and I sign a document saying that you will paint my house on a particular date, and you don't show up, I can't sue you for breach of contract unless the document indicated that you were to receive some type of consideration in exchange for painting my house. So my question is: What consideration did Iran give the...

I'm looking for printable charts that show how compound interest works to show young relatives the effects of saving and compare starting sooner rather than later and how having time on your side works. It would be helpful if it could be changed to various rates and ages to play with the numbers.

Way back when I was a little kid there were occasional specials sponsored by the 3M company. I don't remember much about them but I do remember a certain commercial that ran during the telecasts. It was for a game 3M had created involving a small square board with holes in it and a set of pegs. The pegs were put in the holes and then other pegs were laid atop them. It struck me at the time because it seemed similar to a game we had at elementary school which consisted of a board and pegs, except that this...

Lots of social and mainstream media attention is paid in the media (especially in Florida) when "luminaries" like Gloria Estefan and Pit Bull....their Cuban heritage makes them experts, apparently, on social and political matters.... A few months ago, the Estefan family hosted an Obama fund raiser in their home.....and Pit Bull recently was praised in the Miami media for openly endorsing the threat on Donald Trump's life made by a Mexican drug kingpin. So it sure is surprising that these publicity hounds...people who CLAIM to love freedom of expression and human rights have BEEN SO VERY SILENT regarding their hero...

OK the time has arrived. Art Bell returns to American radio in two hours. Tonight.

Obama favored Iran in the negotiations because he has many ties to Shia Islam and Iran, regardless of his actual faith.

Am I the only one who has noticed that Donald Trump stole Ronald Reagan's c campaign slogan from 1980?

You're John McCain, a fallen hero who wanted to become president so desperately that you sold yourself to Charlie Keating, the wealthy con man who bears such an incredible resemblance to The Joker. Yes this was written in 1989, but has John McCain changed that much????

It seems to me to just be dark. I want complex characters not predictably depressing. Its like Gertrude Stein said about Oakland California: there is no there there. I always value FREEPER input.

The left’s Socialist national scheme at it’s most basic level is predicated on the LIE that one can get ‘something for nothing’ for the mere pittance of sacrificing human dignity and freedom. This actuality should inform everyone that the left’s entire edifice if but a shell of Lies, deceptions, false narratives, false accusations and myths. The task of even attempting to quantify and catalog all of these interlocking lies is a daunting task. But in order to understand the enemy we face this is a task we all must endeavor to undertake. (Oh, did I refer to the left the...

Did anyone else see it. Geraldo's such a punk I wish Eric would have clocked him.

The Wednesday episode of Mr. Robot was my last...

My question: Hillary raises hundreds of millions of campaign dollars and is forced out of the election for what ever reason. Could she donate those campaign dollars to charity, namely the Clinton Foundation or some PAC controlled by her and her family?

We should never forget that it was the Democrat party that gave America this perversion called gay marriage. For about forty years the Democrats have invited the gays into the Democrats' "Rainbow Coalition". The Democrats invited them into the party and gave them a seat at the decision making table. Gays became part of the Democrat coalition. Each group in the coalition gets what it wants and the Democrats have supported the gay agenda for decades. Back in the Clinton administration, Bill Clinton tried to get homosexuals in the military. He was not able to get everything that he wanted...

Of the fifty states in the US, there’s one in particular that stands out like a sore thumb. Not for its beauty, mind you, but for other reasons. None of them positive.

I've been mulling this over for a few days ....

Is "The Donald" in for the long hall, or is he going to "Pull Out" at the last minute -- like he has done so many times before? http://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/may/16/donald-trump-us-presidential-race I don't think he has demonstrated that he is in for the long haul. Therefore I have taken the liberty to give him the handle of Trumpus Interruptus! I confess that I was excited (as was his collective base) when he announced in 2012 that he was considering a run for the republican nomination for President of the United States. I was thus willing to overlook the fact that he was...

Remember the "If you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance" lie? Well, starting last week, tens of thousands of small business owners are about to get hit with $100 per day / per employee fines for helping their employees pay for their private insurance! That's $36,500 for each person they try to help! It's very simple. The government wants everyone on Obamacare... and dependent on the government. So the IRS will now levy a $100 per day, per employee fine on any employer who helps their employees pay the cost of their private healthcare insurance. 10 employees? That's...
