Free Republic

I was at the Capitol at 2:30 pm as everything unfolded. Here is what I saw and how it compares with the official media narrative and released videos.

So, I kept hitting redial and suddenly the phone rings and rings. Then Mr. Snerdly picks up and says, please hold. So about a minute later he comes back on and says "what would you like to ask Rush?" So I said that perhaps the president is doing a head fake. "Head fake?" he asks. I said yes, didn't Rush say the other day that he isn't getting a penny for the wall but he has over $10 billion to spend south of the border? Maybe he has made a deal with the new administration where they'll build the wall...

Just wanted to share this. For the first time since I have been a County Supervisor (Commissioner), an Administration really wants to hear from local governments. We (AZ County Supervisors) have been invited to a private meeting, at the White House, with top staff from several different agencies who actually want to know how we can work better together. It is unprecedented. And did I mention, IT’S AT THE FREAKING WHITE HOUSE!!!! I’ll report back tomorrow.

<p>WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) ? Authorities are investigating whether Rush Limbaugh, already reeling from drug problems and his expulsion from ESPN, may have driven his vehicle just below the posted speed limits on numerous occasions, a law enforcement source who spoke on condition of anonymity said Wednesday.</p> <p>As long as four years ago, local law enforcement manning Florida DUI checkpoints and 'speed traps' repeatedly clocked the ultraconservative demagogue at anywhere from one to six miles per hour below the applicable speed limits. Unconfirmed reports indicate that Limbaugh was also seen proceeding through intersections while traffic lights were yellow.</p>

Michael Moore visited Orlando today, he came to the University of Central Florida(UCF) to try and spread his lies and propaganda to college students. It was outside, on a huge green lawn. The heat was unbearable, it should not be this hot in Florida in October! I went, I didn't see any other FReepers, but was in good company with many other protestors from UCF, ROCK (which I learned stands for Rebuilding on a Conservative Kornerstone), and a couple of others from the area. Being Michael Moore, and the fact the event was held on a liberal campus, we were...

It would be somewhat misleading to call this a freep, as I wasn't involved in any official FReep (the trip to Miami was too spontaneous to plan anything with you all), but here is my report and some pictures I took last night in Miami before, during, and after the debates. If the S. Florida FReepers held their own FReep, I hope you all post a report soon! Before the debates, I was on the intersection of U.S. 1 and 40th holding signs with fellow Bush people. I think there was over 20 people there. Our entire intersection was all...

On the first Saturday of every month, the short North area of Columbus, Ohio, puts on Gallery Hop. The stores, mostly art galleries, stay open late and the entertainment district draws a large crowd. The short North, is generally liberal and a Kerry stronghold. I went to the 8/7/04 edition for some non politcal amusement, and then I saw about 10 Kerry supporters working 3 intersections, handing out Kerry buttons and literature. I decided that I could not let this go unchallenged. I walked back to my car and got my anti Kerry sign out and staked out an intersection...
