it is amusing how many freepers think they have thought of some angle that Fred must not be considering which will lead to his undoing. we are nothing if not a hubristic bunch!

Thanks!

I actually found out that the term “Fredneck” was originally used to refer to a resident of Frederick, Maryland, about 30 miles from my new home here. LOL!

I like the current useage better though! Go Fred!

“Why would a potential presidential candidate provide photographic evidence of himself committing a felony?”

Wow - THAT is the best retort Fat Boy was able to come up with??

He clearly was not prepared to see a GOP politician fight fire with a blow torch. Of course, considering recent GOP politicians, I don't blame him for not expecting such a retort.

Jabba the Hut has officially surrendered - FDT declared winner by TKO.

Our Websense has brietbart.tv blocked under the category 'violence' (???), so for anyone else who can't view that link, here is the clip on YouTube.

I’d agree. I still can’t get over how few native-born white people I run in to here. Not that I care, it’s just DIFFERENT is all!

my nieces and nephews can’t get over the fact that you will never find a suburban American teenager working at a fast food restaurant here. I don’t know how far out you have to go to find that. i think you can find that in Frederick, actually, but not in Fairfax Co. The service industry here is almost 100% foreign-born.

I’ve noticed that too. In OH 80% of fast-food employees are teens or early 20s high school or college types, generally.

Do teenagers here not work jobs then or what?

my older two have been camp counselors at sports camps in the summer. they have friends who work in some stores like American Eagle and Abercrombie stores in the mall in the summer, other than that, i have no idea what teenagers do!

As a teenager, I had to work if I wanted a car. My parents couldn’t afford to do otherwise.

So not only do things cost three times as much but parents are paying for their kids to drive, too? I’m still figuring all that stuff out.

I hope Fred runs and I hope whomever put that video clip together for him is on his campaign team!

“realize this is just Fred talking, but words do mean something and I would give a week’s pay to see some Republican Senators on the hill talk back to the libs this way on a regular basis.” This just goes to show you can shoot a guy down without making personal attacks. It was the perfect response.

Would someone PLEASE knock this blowhard on his keister? I am so sick of the verbal diarrhea that oozes out of his gaping piehole. Yuck.
