I think you’ll find that the Obama honeymoon will be very short indeed, including with the MSM.

Agree in part, disagree in part.

Barry's honeymoon with the people and, ironically, the Congress, will be brief. The first rule of selling is to never promise more than you can deliver, and Barry's gone far past that.

His relationship with the MSM is more akin to that of a pimp to a favored whore. They will serve his needs, and on his terms.

‘I wouldn’t bet my life on some of these people being truly Christian, the church is just the latest institution that the left has infiltrated, when they saw what a power it has been for the Right. They never see an institution they can make use of for power, without doing so. They finally found a way to use the church, with social programs and a message of “tolerance” (ie, homosexual clergy)’.

Could not agree more, we can thanks them for our new president. In the meantime, God has is own plan for them.

Speaking of Hill & Bubba...I was just saying tonight how disappointed I am with Clinton Inc. I guess they were out of criminal tricks to play on Barry.

“The pendulum always swings in American politics.”

NOT ANYMORE....
The Permanent underclass of Illegal Immigration has seen to that.

And Dems have OPENLY SAID they will create a SLAVE CLASS dependent on THEM for Gub’ment Checks.

Will ANY Republican be able to stand against Obama’s yearly “Tax Cut” checks?

On paper this means buh bye Bill and Hill........... ...you believe that ?

I want to. But after tonight ...

I have no doubt that she will try again. She may not even wait for the election. She may start undermining Obama from her Senate seat.

AMEN!!!

FNC just said something important. Obama most significant acomplishment is a mere POLITICAL victory.

that is it.

He did not fight a war.
He did not serve in the military.
He did not write an legislation.
He has never negotiated a treaty.
Did he even argue a full blown trial to verdict?

We cam DO THIS.

We can push our best up, and the fools out. (by by powell)

Jindal is off to IOWA.

Jeb Bush would be an excellent senator or more.

Joe the plumber would be excellent in congress.

How many here on FR should be working to get elected on school boards?

I would just LOVE to have a few home schoolers on the FR list to be on a school board or two.

We could even have FreeRepublicPAC to donate money to conservatives (after we donate to FR)

For those left who still believe in those principles our Founding Fathers did, it’s time to fight. REALLY FIGHT and take this country back in the Lord’s name!!!

Amen, CB!

I'm so glad you've been here tonight.

That is great when you are able to do this... we live in the AZ Desert.

What natural food sources do you have? What can you grow and preserve? What skills do you have? A man with a trade can go to any town and find work. Learn to make soap. In times of hardship, everyone needs soap. Otherwise, diseases break out. Soap can be made with ash and fat. That's all you really need.
Get creative. Look at those things around you. Look at them upside down. What do you see? What did the frontiersman do? Buy a survival book and look for ideas.
If you can do something with what you have, you've gotten much farther ahead than where you are now. Keep it up. Over time, you'll be surprised at all the things you come up with. Make it a hobby. You'll find out you actually enjoy it.

FNC, Jindal is heading to IOWA this month...
____________________________________________________________

I’m sure FNC will be objective with him....as they were with McCain and Palin. Given how FOX is nowadays, I wonder if FNC will ask Jindal if he flew to Iowa on a magic carpet.

Water here is a finite resource and now that Obama has been elected our water situation is probably going to get much worse, People here grow rocks and plants that require little or no water, the price of water is more than the cost of the food.

“they don’t define me.”

They don’t have to define YOU, they can define how OTHERS think of you, and in politics, that is everything, as we have just seen.

We haven’t even BEGUN to see the Power of THE RACE CARD, yet. And Obama won’t have any fear about throwing it around.

CNN website is really pi**ing me off. They have yet to call GA Senate race for Chambliss, in spite of the fact he’s up 180,000 votes with 97% precincts in.
