Free Republic

It’s been years since I bothered with FOX. And I used to watch exclusively.I can’t abide any of the Cable news stations or any TV news (with the exception of local news).

Just in passing through the network channels, I might stop at the cable news channels and the stuff they cover is old rehashed dribble and stories with huge factual omissions. I’m online only for news.

Why does fox keep these obnoxious mouth pieces like Shep and O’Reilly, and Geraldo? Really? Waste of airspace.

As far as the Bachmann mess up. Yes it was, but taken in the context of all the other horrific mess ups happening in this country right now, it’s not even the tiniest blip.

Concord/Lexington, MA is less than 50 miles to the NH border and Concord/Lexington are is as moonbat as you can get in Massachusetts. They love the reenactments because of they get to dress up in costumes. Truthfully, the reenactments are great to witness. Maybe Bachmann’s misstatement was a freudian slip. As of Nov. 2, Concord, NH, is a better bet for a tea party patriot anyway.

Will Mideast’s Upheavals Put Extremists In Power?

Look at the extremist psychos in psycho city DC. It’s happening here, it’s pretty much a done deal there.

Gov. La Page was on the Howie Carr show speaking about the mural, WGBH, this afternoon.

I was wondering how bad could it be — a ‘working people’s’ mural. Well, after seeing it — I can understand why it doesn’t seem appropriate for it’s place. It’s a Che-type statement and looks exactly like something an artist would do given a government grant. Not something I would have imagine belongs in the Maine capital building.

The mural is something that can and should be appreciated as the artistic piece that it is, but it doesn’t belong where it is at present. I’m sure Gov. LaPage will find a more appropriate place for it, as he said he is hoping to do.

Hope the good people of Maine keep LaPage long enough for him to have the positive impact on their state they desperately need.

Children most often learn by example. We have many examples of what crass behavior rises to the top.

Give her at least a little credit for picking up on all the cues this classless society has taught her is totally acceptable.

This Obamacare turd of a turkey is NOT going to be repealed. It’s already being implemented, so now is the time to burn it. But let’s face it, the GOP has no intention of repealing it.

It won’t matter anyway in a few years. We’ll have so many other immediate worries, we’ll be willing to take whatever we can get. And it won’t be much for us peasants.

Can we assume no member of the teacher’s union has a spouse or family member who runs their own business — real estate company, insurance, store, etc.

I have friends who are teachers, and know of teachers in my area who’s family members own and operate businesses I patronize. Most likely I won’t be boycotting them, however, the next time I am looking for services those business offer, it just might occur to me that I could take my business elsewhere.

‘Solidarity’ — that’s the name of their union magazine? Now that is a bit creepy. Hmmmm.

Hope somebody got a screen shot.

Given the performance of the Republicans since November so far, the RINOs are still in charge, and happily attending a little congenial cocktails parties with Demo “buddies.”

Not much of a sign that things will be different.

The RINOs who got their walking papers proved to their constituents that they were the trash that needed to be taken out. Their behavior was notably vengeful. The RINOs remaining are waiting to do the same damage with what time they have left, because they’ll be next.

Washington will not change with less than 100% discipline in the GOP. But the Repubs can’t seem to stop rewarding the most floppy members to chairmanships (it’s “their turn” after all — “Rep. Hal Rogers of Kentucky as chairman of the Appropriations Committee and Rep. Fred Upton of Michigan as chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee” [sponsored bill to ban light bulbs] — Washington Examiner).

Don’t know much about the other appointments, but chairmanships alone prove the GOP will assume room temperature in 2011.

As I stated, I’m not that keen on Romney.

But tell me how Romney and Obama are alike.

My point isn’t that I would like to vote for Romney, but that I would if the choice was between Romney and Huckabee or even McCain.

McCain has proven he is incapable of leadership, other than inconsistent outbursts when its opportune to get his face on the tube. McCain loves to not only reach across the isle, he put the opponents cheerleader outfits on and roots for the other side — we can’t afford such weakness. And the last election showed Huckabee is his willing accomplice.

I’ll vote for Romney over Huckabee.

Not that I’d be all that excited about Romney, but even next to McCain, I’d go with Romney.

Huckabee = creepy, self-interested sleaze.

It’s true, Romney doesn’t have any reasonable excuse for the healthcare mess on Massachusetts. However, we are talking Massachusetts, and when Romney went with the healthcare bill in MA it was one thing. Once the corrupt Mass legislature got ahold of it, it most likely morphed into quite another.

As far as the primary — New Hampshire has a big problem when it comes to voting. It has same day registration, and an open primary. The same day registration makes it vulnerable to voter fraud, and it would be foolish to think it hasn’t happened in NH already. The crossover voting is another thing that distorts voting results.

Time to get rid of both.

Most of us who fly regularly have already observed that a terrorist can easily pull off an attack by way of the comings and goings of the airports services — baggage handling, agents in and out of security doors, food services, deliveries. All anyone has to do is have a name tag through legitimate or illegitimate means. Or lack of enforcement of the airport’s internal security practices.

Some of that is unavoidable because there has to be the ability to provide services efficiently.

In addition, this country refuses to secured its borders at every level of immigration.

We’re wide open.

Huckabee?

No.

Well, there is a time a place to cry. And if Boehner wants to fine, but not on national TV/interview. And not as an incoming majority leader — please!

This behavior simply reenforces the appearance that the GOP leadership chronically has — the inability to be effective when handed the responsibility by their constituents — no purpose, no determination, wasted opportunities.

There’s no time for Boehner’s weepy nostalgia. It’s time for wimp compromisers to GET OUT OF THE WAY. They’ve have wasted OUR resources, OUR hard earned money, OUR and OUR children’s futures — for generations. Washington is an utter mess, the GOP has a big hand in that mess, and HE’s the one who cries?

Maybe he is a “nice” man, but so far, he hasn’t acted like he can handle the type of leadership we absolutely have to have. Nobody cares how he FEELS. We care about how he and his colleagues plan to save this country. MAN UP, or GET OUT!

They’re all jackwagons as far as I can tell.

I don’t understand why those poor people were arrested. As far as I understand, you can’t be an illegal immigrant in Massachusetts, remember .....

‘Democrats pull plug on climate bill’

Anybody believing that clap-trap is on heavy drugs.

Democrats will pass that turkey in increments by sticking bits and pieces in every orifice of the bills they can pass. It will happen with the blessings of Republicans in both houses, too.

Bet on it.

Well, big whoop.

The Bush tax cuts won’t do diddly squat anymore. We have them now and we’re still getting killed.

The government has our schools, mortgages, auto industry, and we’ve got the Obamacare turkey, Kagan for SCOTUS, Financial Deform, the inevitable Crap & Tax idiocy, and most likely open borders amnesty — please, Bush tax cuts? Any advantage from it is already canceled out.

Washington is filled with elitist policy putzes using the old worn out 30-year-old shoe of failed socialism. Smell the stink of it (that includes most of the GOP). Unfortunately, we’re all getting fitted for our own pair of smelly socialist shoes. You’re gonna wear ‘um and you’re gonna like um’.

‘If you’re still wondering, as many clueless economists are, why businesses in America are sitting on more than $1 trillion in cash but refuse to invest it .............Fact is, they’re terrified of how far the current Democrat-run government will take us down the path of socialism.’

Well, that’s interesting ... ‘ Businesses are terrified.’ Really? GE, GM, Goldman & Sachs, Apple, the list is most likely huge beyond belief. ..... Their not terrified, their in the bag.

Weren’t we told by many CEOs and financial whizzes that we should all be very comfortable with the brilliant man-child marxist. Or are the businesses complaining now the ones that didn’t put enough down at the Democrats table of corruption to play with the big boys.

Not going to make a wit (get it?) of difference who becomes governor of California. The state is out of control. Neither of them have what it would take to salvage any of it.

I absolutely love that state, and don’t understand why Californians are so hell bent on destroying it. Something strange in the water I guess — cumulative effect.

Whitman, Brown, meh. Same outcome.

Oh, those clever and talented Soros thespians!

It’ll be a sell-out, i’m sure.

Even if one was a kool-aid drinker, I think it would be hard to sit through what looks to be a sorry production, forcing laughter out of obligation to fellow moonbats.

I wonder, does the realization of their hypocricy ever flash briefly in their heads.

Wish I had the positive attitude of VDH. But I don’t, and I don’t think November will be anywhere near the blow-out we need and some are touting.

My belief is that the majority of Americans are not interested, nor are they paying attention. The ones sounding the alarm are my age and older, and we’ll be dying off. And academia has been hugely successful at suppressing critical thought. The socialists can now take their places in the next era.

I’m ashamed to have left this mess to my children. Their generation isn’t equipped to deal with reality we’ve shielded them from. A government bureaucracy anxious to manage their lives for them after we’re gone will do very well.
