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!

[Victoria Delsoul]

Good for you, Nan.

[Mama_Bear]

And here I am goin on just 3 months here so far...LOL!But what fun it has been already!

Well, I know I speak for all of us when I say, we are so glad you found us, Maj.

I have made life-long friends here, people that mean the world to me. I've been lucky enough to actually meet some of them. Others I will never meet in person, but they are no less special to me.

This is truly a very special place in cyberspace where we can support our military (and each other) and share our love for God and Country, all the while having great fun doing it. And I can't help but believe that a Divine Hand guided us here.

[Majie Purple]

I'm a ssssslllllooooooowwww typer! LOL Thanks!

[Mama_Bear]

Hi Victoria. I usually miss you when you come on the thread in the evening. How've you been?

[WVNan]

Oh yes, and you are coming up on two years past old also my dear. That is real venerable, but not quite as venerable as moi. Mama said you were to look to me as an example.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Hi Lori! Doing pretty good thanks, and enjoying my spring break.

Yeah, I don't see you much around here. Hope everything is going well with you.

[LadyX]

Thanks for dredging that up!
Sadly, we each are so busy we don't cross paths here as often... Nan has since had her first grandbaby born, to love and mind
a few days a week, as well as being a full-time minister,
and her husband is, too!

We still ^communicate,* though, in every way..:))

[WVNan]

Yeah, that was a clever retort. Mama always said she was quick. Did you hear that I sent her a feed sack for her birthday last year?

[LadyX]

"And I can't help but believe that a Divine Hand guided us here."

Oh, yes, Lori!
There is no doubt about that!!

[Majie Purple]

...Well, I know I speak for all of us when I say, we are so glad you found us, Maj...."

Thank you I am touched by your words not just the quoted portion but the entire post. Hugs to you & all that have made us all feel so welcome here as we arrive; and are oh so happy to be!

[Majie Purple]

No joke...A feed sack really? HAhahaha x 2!

[Mama_Bear]

Doing good, can't complain.

I hope you continue to enjoy your spring break. Are you on the year round school system? My DIL is a high school teacher and says she loves the year round system. She doesn't get the long summer break, but smaller ones throughout the year.

[WVNan]

Yes, I see the Divine Hand here as well MB. After all, He brought you to me, along with Scubachick and Babychick and Amy and Marissa. I also have met the Ohio "gang" and love them all. I've had trouble most of my life making friends because I'm not one to make small talk. I want to discuss the weightier issues, and to know that my friends feel the same as I feel about them. Hard to come by those kind of friends, and FR is a treasure trove of likeminded friends.

[LadyX]

"Mama said you were to look to me as an example."

Told ya Mama loved yew best..:(
I'll get over it....one day...some decade...

sobbing quietly.....

[Mama_Bear]

Oh, yes, Lori!

[WVNan]

No joke. Really. Ask sistah.

[Majie Purple]

"And we are glad you found your way here MEG."
I second that!

[WVNan]

Awwww fer cryin' out loud. Do you have to be soooooo sensitive about every little ole thing? Bless your heart. She only meant that I am older and wiser, which makes me more venerable.
