Woo hoo!! Less than two weeks to go until we vote Obama's corrupt Marxist regime OUT!!
And I guess hell has frozen over because as much as I dislike Romney's prior RINO positions, I've decided I will make my anti-Obama vote count in the only way it might actually do some good. I will mark my ballot for Romney and vote straight Republican right down the ticket and no on anything that raises taxes, spends money or aids big government or helps greedy, thieving socialist workers unions.
And I urge all conservatives to do the same regardless of where they live and no matter how blue their state or district. Every vote counts!!
Obama and his corrupt socialist Democrats must be sent packing by the widest margins possible, even in the bluest of blue states.
We must retake the presidency, build on our majority in the house and retake the senate. And we must expand the Republican takeover of as many state and local governments as possible. We must fully restore the ninth and tenth amendments and reestablish control over our totally out of control, runaway federal government!! Scrap all that corrupt, unconstitutional socialist crap and restore local control over local government functions!! And this tenth amendment/states rights/individual freedom movement, er, tea party rebellion must start at the local and state levels and right on up until we boot the corrupt Marxists from EVERY level of government!!
Boot the socialist Democrats who are destroying our economy, destroying our businesses, our jobs, our freedom, our society and our traditional American way of life. If they wish to live in a communist state, they should flee to Cuba!!
Screw them!! America is a free nation. Live it, love it, defend it, or get the hell out!!
Vote them OUT! Run them out! Impeach the corrupt bastards we can't vote out and boot them OUT!!
God bless America!!
And despite our server problems, our fourth quarter FReepathon is still going strong!! Hoorah!! FReepers are the greatest!!

“Could Sandy (hurricane) Target Northeast US?”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2949459/posts
I’ll post the link to the live thread when I see it.
Mr T is going to try to reserve a generator for this hurricane. As it stands now, this storm is tracking right toward us.
We also need to get more propane, bottled water (if we can't get a generator) and canned food.

"Texas has a "low taxes, low services" reputation. According to the Tax Foundation, Texans' state and local tax burdens rank among the lowest in the nation, 7th lowest nationally; state and local taxes cost $3,580 per capita, or 8.4% of resident incomes.
Texas is one of seven states that lack a state income tax. Instead, the state collects revenue from a state property tax and sales tax, which is charged at the rate of 6.25%, but local taxing jurisdictions (cities, counties, special purpose districts, and transit authorities) may also impose sales and use tax up to 2% for a total maximum combined rate of 8.25%. Texas is a "tax donor state"; in 2005, for every dollar Texans paid to the federal government in federal income taxes, the state received approximately $0.94 in benefits.
In 2010, Site Selection Magazine ranked Texas as the most business-friendly state in the nation, in part because of the state's three-billion-dollar Texas Enterprise Fund. Texas has the joint-highest number of Fortune 500 company headquarters in the United States, along with California.
In 2010, there were 346,000 millionaires in Texas, constituting the second-largest population of millionaires in the nation. "source: Wikipedia
"Arkansas is a state located in the Southern region of the United States. Its name is an Algonquian name of the Quapaw Indians. The state's diverse geography ranges from the mountainous regions of the Ozarks and the Ouachita Mountains, which make up the U.S. Interior Highlands, to the eastern lowlands along the Mississippi River and the Arkansas Delta. Arkansas is the 29th most extensive and the 32nd most populous of the 50 United States. The capital and most populous city is Little Rock, located in the central portion of the state. The Territory of Arkansas was admitted to the union as the 25th state on June 15, 1836.
The name Arkansas derives from the same root as the name for the state of Kansas. The Kansa tribe of Native Americans are closely associated with the Sioux tribes of the Great Plains. The word Arkansas itself is a French pronunciation (Arcansas) of a Quapaw (a related Kaw tribe) word, akakaze, meaning land of downriver people or the Sioux word akakaze meaning people of the south wind.
