A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day

Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.

A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.

On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY

If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.

We're having fun and hope you are!

State of the Union Address
January 31, 2006

All eyes and ears will be on our President tonight as he delivers his SOTU address.   I always look forward to his speeches and can't keep from laughing at the frowns and scowls on the faces of those on the dark side of the aisle (shown below in 2003).

Of course, when the President ends his speech, the other party gets the rest of the evening to respond.   And then the media gets their turn to tell us what the President said, and how much better the State of the Union would be if the Democrats were in charge.

In short, the leaders of the Democrat party get to attack the President for all the things that have gone wrong since Florida 2000.   Everything that has followed is Bush's fault - from 9-11 to Katrina.   If you don't believe Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Harry Reid, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer, etal, just ask anyone who shapes the news: if it's bad, it's Bush's fault.


And besides all that, he smirks, and he's cocky, and.... he swaggers!

Have a wonderful Tuesday, and please keep President Bush in your thoughts and prayers as he continues to work towards a stronger and safer America.

THIS WEEK'S THREADS 01-30-06 Military Monday

Opinions by our own 'King of Ping' Every Thursday at the Finest The guy's good, folks!

[LadyX]

Fox News Channel was wise to dump Paula Zahn!

Something new is that CNN has sewed up William Buckley to be a commentator for them!
He was on the evening after he had been with GWB in the afternoon...
he at least will express his true opinions without the malice so typical of the Democrat Spinners...

(speaking of spinners, Billie, always makes me remember that poor kitty spinning on the vinyl record graphic..:))

[LadyX]

Great graphic, Luvvy!

[luvie]

Nice to know that CNN is maybe at least trying to become more fair. Guess they are seeing, finally, that Fox has outclassed them because they have a "fair and balanced" approach to the news. We can only hope.

[luvie]

Teehee...thanks, Lady.

"I think I'll get hubby to bring pizza home so I don't have to be interrupted."

My hubby bought a frozen pizza yesterday for tonight, already devoured at 6 p.m..
While I am not ecstatic about them, this one was good...
I with every bite reminded myself:
"You're doing this for GWB!!"

[i am a very good girl]

[freema]

This is beautiful.

I didn't get as close, but we were able to get tickets to a rally after the election when he came to town. Middle child was in a pickle with a few bad dirt bike burns. I didn't have much sympathy for the little hot dog. So, he got himself a wheelchair. Oh Lordy. Don't you know, we were escorted as VIPs thru back halls, etc., to great seats. Hubby was locked up that day. LOL. In a mechanical room with the Secret Service guarding him. He was in charge of keeping W coooooooooooooooooooooooooool.

(Fixing the A/C if it broke : )

[The Mayor]

I must have been making to much noise.. : )

[The Mayor]

((((((((HUGS)))))))) Wolfie!

[MEG33]

Beautiful presentation, Billie..Thank you!

[luvie]

No. They told him on this trip that he couldn't use his private e-mail address aboard the ship. Probably because of where they are. But I GOT A PHONE CALL FROM HIM THIS AFTERNOON. It was nearly midnight there and he is an early-to-bed person, but we had a good visit. Mostly just chit-chat and he was helping me figure out the TiVo he gave us for Christmas. LOL!

[WVNan]

Beautiful Billie. Now how am I going to keep up with two parties (the Dose is having one too) and watch the speech at the same time. So much fun.....so little time.
I love the walking gif and I loved that little put down when he said it.
I e-mailed you a pic to post...or not. I must have a gazillion pictures saved in a file, starting before he was elected the first time.

[WVNan]

Sistah, those are my favorite pictures of the President and First Lady of all time. It was when I saw those pictures that I knew he would be President.

I got your report. I wish it had been better. I keep you in my prayers. Don't try to do too much.

[MEG33]

I love those pictures!

[tuliptree76]

I wasn't able to get so close in 2004...

During the 2000 campaign, I was able to shake his hand and get his autograph, but I forgot my camera!

[WVNan]

Naw....you never ever had the "Joe" complex. That honor goes to the dimocrats. You have always seen that rainbow in every cloud. I know cause I'm your sistah.

[LadyX]

"Mostly just chit-chat and he was helping me figure out the TiVo he gave us for Christmas."

Dern newfangled gadgets -
they do challenge our pitiful highly overloaded minds..:))

[parts is parts, and ours
are already overflowing with information!]

[luvie]

They sure do! I tear my hair out every time I turn it on because there's more new stuff to learn.
