Good for Tony! He's looking great, isn't he?

Wayne Madsen is one nut/liar. In the past, I've come against the loons postings of his articles....they are buying into his garbage hook line and sinker. I found it was a huge waste of my time 'cause I've concluded they've all gone absolutely NUTS. You can't get through to any of them. A scripture pops into my mind everytime I see this type of garbage...2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
What was the screed? I missed it!
I believe it was Judge Lambert who is the terrorist sympathizer.
Thank you again...I sure am glad to have you to help me today...my memory is still on Christmas vacation...LOL
Those words are music to my ears. Even if it's just an opinion ; )
Watching with hope, but a bit of caution. I won't be happy until I see some wacko leftists wearing prison orange.
BETRAY OUR COUNTRY AND GET LOCKED UP...IF YOU'RE *LUCKY*.
Yes, I did. Stuart is good and aggressive. I like that in a conservative newsie.

Robert Nokak is on the Situation Room with Wolfie..
Novak's last day at CNN...before he moves to FOX...(which I regret, because I do NOT like, or trust Novak).
Heh heh heh heh heh.
Chrissy must be apoplectic. He'll need to drink an extra fifth today.
Will the toxic Norah be carrying on for him this week? Or does she have too many knee-pad parties to attend?
That will be a good one. Soon I'll have to move the TV into the puter room, so I can watch FOX and FReep at the same time.
Now it makes sense, thanks.

The libs need to be forced to understand what they have done. They won't suffer diminished poll numbers, media outrage, or press scrutiny. This is JAIL. Someone needs to be put into prison over this, not at some Martha Stewart country club, and not for a mere few months. I want to see someone get 20 years in Federal prison.
I love the keywords at the top of this thread! Keep them coming, you crazy but lovable FReepers!
