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!

After a couple of weeks of pretending to care about national security, Democrats -- now that the Dubai ports deal is dead and they can't use that phony issue to impersonate real Americans -- are back to their wonderful old treasonous ways.

After the Dubai ports deal, which "Dumbya" cleverly used to divert attention from the Katrina video, which Chimpy used to divert attention from Cheney's hunting accident, which Cheney used to divert attention from the NSA spy "scandal," we're back to the NSA spy "scandal" again.

"A liberal Democrat and potential White House contender" -- Sen. Russ Feingold -- "is proposing censuring President Bush for authorizing domestic eavesdropping, saying the White House misled Americans about its legality," the AP reports.

According to libbies, a phone call by al-Qaeda from Islamabad to New York is a "domestic" call. An airline flight from Paris to New York is a "domestic" flight, following the tenets of this piercing logic. A call from the Cylons on planet New Caprica to New Jersey is domestic. So, NSA monitoring a call by bin Laden from Tehran to his home-boys in New York is called "domestic" spying and an invasion of privacy. Libbies say they want bin Laden nabbed -- just don't snoop on him.

Russ Feingold took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, against all enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC. DOMESTIC? Like in DOMESTIC eavesdropping? I call for Feingold's immediate censure.

The Wisconsin clown -- pandering to his party's moron base -- voted against the Patriot Act right after the 9/11 attacks. He was the only senator to do so. His censure proposal should be a real winner, too.

The censure proposal accuses Bush of violating the 1978 FISA law. Bush does this by pursuing something called Article II of the Constitution. Says something there about him being Commander-in-Chief. Feingold's proposal reads, "Resolved, that the United States Senate does hereby censure George W. Bush, president of the United States, and does condemn his unlawful authorization of wiretaps of Americans." By "Americans," liberals mean anyone on U.S. soil. Al-Qaeda operatives from Pakistan residing in New York instantly become "Americans," provided they're being "wiretapped" by Dick Cheney from his roving white van.

UAE-owned "Dubai Ports World" morphs into an innocent "American" company -- all Bush had to do is get the NSA to spy on it. Deal could've been saved. 'Resolved, the U.S. Senate hereby condemns Bu$hitler's unlawful wiretaps of innocent American companies like Dubai Ports World.'

(No matter how you slice it, though, Bush badly mishandled the whole Dubai ports issue. In every way imaginable. I'll spare you the details. All I can say is, if he keeps this up, no third term!)

"Congress has to reassert our system of government," in response to Bush's warrantless wiretaps, says Feingold, "and the cleanest and the most efficient way" to do this is to pass a warrantless censure, all in hopes Bush would come to his senses and confess he did "something wrong" by spying on al-Qaeda without a warrant.

You'd think that after al-Qaeda had savagely slaughtered 3,000 innocent Americans in cold blood, Bush would acknowledge the sacredness of search warrants! According to reports, al-Qaeda, using hijacked planes, burst into several buildings on 9/11 without search warrants.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Transylvania) calls the GOP a "culture of corruption." I think it says something that a party which, back in Clinton's days, begged the "culture of corruption" to censure and not impeach Clinton, now thinks censure is a big deal. It's a "crazy political move," said corruption culturalist Bill Frist, Senate Majority Leader, acting like Senate Majority Leader for the first time in months.

After all the talk of impeachment earlier this year, this whole censure business by Feingold shows that, as stupid as they are, even Democrats have figured out Bush will be President until January, 2009. Fein by me.

But! This censure bidness creates a dilemma for '08 Dems in the same way that horseface's attempt to filibuster Justice Sam AliOto created a dilemma for them. "Many analysts criticized Mr. Kerry's move as futile and unwise, but most Democrats, including Mrs. Clinton, grudgingly went along with it" (The New York Sun, 3/13/06). Most Senate Dems pretend they're undecided on censure, but forcing a floor vote will smoke them out. Can't wait.

Anyway, that's...

THIS WEEK'S THREADS 03-13-06 Military Monday 03-14-06 A Finest Pet Day ~ The Doggie Dictionary 03-15-06 Butterflies!! The "Pretty" Bugs!

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

[Majie Purple]

Saw & heard Jack! Saved him till last...

[WVNan]

They put him on at the very end of the program. We had to suffer through all of the program to get to a glimpse of him. He's beginning to age (aren't we all?). Well, Now I can watch the "end" again at 2:00 A.M.

[Mama_Bear]

I DID see the whole segment with Mr. WVNan's son. Thanks so much for letting me know. I tuned in just in time! God bless him for the work he does with horses.

[MEG33]

What a great ending..Jack has a beautiful ranch. It is very hard to believe that horse is the same..Great work!

[WVNan]

Yep, the very end. He's aged a lot since we saw him last. Sure makes me feel old. I keep thinking he should be the skinny little kid who lost his pants running for a touchdown in peewee football.

[WVNan]

He does a great job with the horses.

[Mama_Bear]

My eight-year registration anniversary is in April.

Well, we're sure a bunch of old-timers, aren't we? (But none of us are quite as old as Billie.) ;-)

[WVNan]

Oh good! I'm glad you caught it in time MB.

[MEG33]

My daughter an I both had to take a "time out" from watching Animal Cops because of a particularly horrific show..neither of us realized we had the same reaction of "hanging on to the pictures"...and the anger about the cruel neglect. for days and days.

[Mama_Bear]

I'm glad you caught it in time MB.

So am I. I got the tv turned on just in time and managed to figure out how to TIVO it so I can show JK when he gets home and say...."see, I know his dad!" :-)

[Majie Purple]

He sure has a nice southern accent!

[Mama_Bear]

I can't watch it at all, MEG. I just get so emotionally upset. But I thank God that there are people who will go in and rescue those poor animals.

[WVNan]

You know MB, it was the advertisement on Drudge for the March for Justice that introduced me to FR. I followed the link and read about the MFJ and tuned in to C-Span the next Sat. I couldn't believe what I was seeing and hearing. I joined up immediately. FR was easy to navigate back then, LOL.

[Majie Purple]

"...Now I can watch the "end" again at 2:00 A.M."
Well at least now you won' have to "wade through the whole program" again...LOL!

[MEG33]

God bless the rescuers.

[WVNan]

LOL, we all do. We're Southerners. I was born and raised in the deep South. Of course hubby is from Ohio (darned Yankee),but the kids were raised in the South.

[Majie Purple]

Love the hula girl gif LOL!

[WVNan]

I remember the island. But, the adventure I miss the most is the Mobius cruise.

[Billie]

We are a lucky nation to have such fine citizens as those on your list.

We have a fine group of Freepers and Freepers' loved ones serving our military - they make us proud. :)
