  • AMAZING! Normal U.S Quarter That Comes Up Heads 100% of the Time! (the AP HEALTH CARE Poll)

    01/17/2011 1:16:54 PM PST · by bigjoesaddle · 7 replies
    I have in my possession a U.S. quarter that, when thrown in the air, will land “heads” 100% of the time. It is not a two headed quarter, and anyone can throw it and have the same result. In fact, YOU have the same “magic quarter” in your pocket right now! I’ll tell you how to “activate the magic” in your own quarter! First, pull out a blank sheet of paper, and write “Heads” on the top left of the paper and “Tails” on the top right. Second, pull out your “magic quarter” and flip it in the air. If...

    Please check this out, I see it was posted a year ago almost to the day. I looked for it a couple of years ago because this epitomises the Animal Rights movement and their mentality. Kids in the Hall - Skora, the Gentle Shark http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AUfb_4izRA
  • "God In America" Premere tonight on PBS. Episode One, "A New Adam" and Episode Two, "A New Eden"

    Since the days when the Puritan "city on a hill" beckoned on the horizon of the New World, religious faith and belief have forged America's ideals, molded its identity and shaped its sense of mission at home and abroad. For the first time on television, God in America explores the tumultuous 400-year history of the intersection of religion and public life in America, from the first European settlements to the 2008 presidential election. A co-production of AMERICAN EXPERIENCE and FRONTLINE, this six-hour series examines how religious dissidents helped shape the American concept of religious liberty and the controversial evolution of...

    "Reed" Alert!Christopher Reed For Congress02-18-2010National Debt Update: $12,386,288,983,239.22  Cowards Create Commissions Today President Obama created an 18 member "Deficit Commission". Their task is to come up with recommendations on what should be done with our out of control deficit.   Two weeks ago President Obama's budget contained $3.8 Trillion in EXTRA SPENDING on top of last years amount, and $2 TRILLION in new taxes.  Obviously decreasing spending is far off Obama's radar, so what is the reason for the commission?   It is to green-light an increase of more taxes on the "rich", but also on the middle class, a group Candidate Obama promised would not see a tax increase.  No doubt the 18 members on...

    We Surround Them FRIDAY! ATTEND A VIEWING PARTY!!!http://wesurroundthemmap.com/Do you watch the direction that America is being taken in and feel powerless to stop it? Do you believe that your voice isn’t loud enough to be heard above the noise anymore? Do you read the headlines everyday and feel an empty pit in your stomach…as if you’re completely alone? If so, then you’ve fallen for the Wizard of Oz lie. While the voices you hear in the distance may sound intimidating, as if they surround us from all sides—the reality is very different. Once you pull the curtain away you realize...

    I have been saved for going on 2 years now, and I pray daily. I decided to ask God about the upcomming election. I was mainly wanting to know what to expect, because FReeRepublic, Rush, Sean and Fox News have been taking over my life recently, and I need to get other things done. I open my Bible, and the absolute first thing I saw was; ”Righteousness exalts a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.” Proverbs 14:34DOes this mean I should live my life good and what happens happens? Does this mean because we are a sinful...

    This video was on the old National Lampoon site, it is no longer there. Obviously the new Lampoon people are too Liberal to show this. I do not know the politics of the creator of this, but he definitely knows what’s funny. Definitely dark humor, but in the TRUE tradition of the Lampoon. (Michael O'Donoghue would have LOVED this) Found this on YouTube! I am SOOOO Happy to finally share this with fellow sick-minded FReepers. If you don't like dark humor....don't click this link!Ted Kennedy Meets Christopher Reeve
  • Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie To Star in Atlas Shrugged

    03/23/2008 4:40:21 AM PDT · by bigjoesaddle · 45 replies · 830+ views
    After years of delays, Ayn Rand's famous novel "Atlas Shrugged" is being made into a feature film starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, according to media reports. Lionsgate Films bought the rights to the film version of the 1957 novel, considered in many polls to be one of the most influential books in history. According to Hollywood trade paper Variety, the Mr. And Mrs. Smith co-stars, who are both fans of the Russian novelist, would play the lead roles of Dagny Taggart and John Gault. The story revolves around the economic collapse of the United States sometime in the future...

    Liberal Fascism by Jonah Goldberg Description: “Fascists,” “Brownshirts,” “jackbooted stormtroopers”—such are the insults typically hurled at conservatives by their liberal opponents. Calling someone a fascist is the fastest way to shut them up, defining their views as beyond the political pale. But who are the real fascists in our midst? Glenn's Comments: Fascism with a smiley face, it's already here. Mentioned: January 14, 2008

    Did you know Mike Huckabee has a new book out, released January 4th, AND JUST RELEASED ON PAPERBACK FEBRUARY 5th according to Amazon?Well we know here in Iowa. As soon as the political commercials ended the day after the Caucus, Huck was running commercials selling his book. From Hope to Higher Ground: 12 STOPS to Restoring America's Greatness by Mike Huckabee (Hardcover - Jan 4, 2007) Is it possible Huckster is doing this across the country, campaign in a state on supporters money, then run ads for his book when he leaves, profiting on the popularity others (supporters) paid for....

    Do the Florida voters realize they may be electing Hillary as President today? THe conservatives in America cannot vote for this guy McCain. For 8 years he has been President Bush's primary backstabber, and the arguements against him are too numerous for this post. This day could be historic. In the future when they ask "where were you when Hillary Clinton was elected president?", You may have to tell them where you heard McCain won the Florida Primary on January 29th, 2008.
  • Giuliani's 'Virtual Fence' a Virtually Useless Border Plan -James Pinkerton (Hillarious)

    Cedar Rapids Gazette ^ | 12/02/2007 | James Pinkerton
    A "virtual fence" to defend our border with Mexico? You know, detectors and sensors and cameras and the like, but not a physical barrier? That's the considered policy position of Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, which he shares with such homeland security experts as Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, and Michael Chertoff, secretary of Homeland Security. All of them support a virtual fence -- because any fool can see that walls don't work. Bricks, concrete, barbed wire, all that: overrated! We don't need physical boundaries between us, only virtual boundaries. That's why we'd never...
  • FOX's "RED EYE"...Letterman Meets MaximThe bouncy pleasures of Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld.

    04/20/2007 9:13:14 AM PDT · by bigjoesaddle · 14 replies · 981+ views
    Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld (Fox News) looks like the least costly hour of programming on any major news channel and, more impressive yet, the most bizarre. The two-month-old show is a tabloid gabfest and a dumbfounding frat party—a production so light and crude that it seems to have been adapted from the margins of a spiral-bound notebook, right down to its hair-metal-indebted logo and that indifferent w-slash. The most direct antecedents of Red Eye are the sloppy salon of The View, the fluffy hindparts of such chat shows as Scarborough Country and Tucker, and the jollier rants of local...
