Free Republic

Whatever you do, watch the rerun of Hannity & Colmes tonight. They are discussing the City of San Fransciscos declining to accept the U.S.S. Iowa as a memorial.Democrats on parade! The person interviewed (a democRAT) claimed the United States should have NO MILITARY!Even Allen disagreed with this person.

I received a call from FReeper "Internet Golfer" this afternoon. IG was VERY upset. His sister-in-law, Barb was diagnosed with a rare cancer this morning. She is the wife of Al who had many FReePrayers said for him not long ago.Please say some prayers for Barb!

I saw this on "Iraq The Model" and thought y'all might enjoy it too.VW suicide bomber

I have a question. I was watching Fox & Friends this morning and noticed at least two zoom shots of the forged memos.I tried to see if there was an originating phone number on top/left.Now my question(s): 1) Do fax machines still print this information on any/all pages?2) Has anyone tried to see if there is such a thing on these forgeries? 3)Does anyone have a screen capture of the FULL document, including the header, and if so would you post it here please?

In case this never makes the National News...at least you will see it! This picture of the statue was made by an Iraqi artist named Kalat, who for years was forced by Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that dotted Baghdad. This artist was so grateful that the Americans liberated his country,he melted 3 of the fallen Saddam heads and made a memorial statue dedicated to the American soldiers and their fallen comrades. Kalat worked on this night and day for several months. To the left of the kneeling soldier is a small Iraqi...

I just recieved a call from Internet Golfer. His brother, Al is having major tests run today. While it is too early to say what might be the problem, it isn't too early to say some FREEPrayers for him.

I just received an e-mail from Art, Mary Ann's husband (vets_husband_and_wife) with an update on Mary Ann.Mary Ann needs our prayers!Origional thread

I recieved an e-mail from Vets_Husband_and_Wife this morning. She needs our prayers.Vets_Husband_and_Wife is a victim of Tainted Blood, thanks to Bill Clinton's prison blood sales while he was Governor of Arkansas.*Here is part of that e-mail:"But I'm home now. I went in on the 19th, and my doctor let me go on the 22nd. I've been on antibiotics since the 19th (by IV for four days..and 7 days at home on two others). I'm gonna have some tests..and would love some prayers that I won't require surgery in the near future." Mary Ann is an avid FReeper when her health...

Trying to get good signs for a "FReep the creep" this Sunday, I recieved a GREAT suggestion from a FReeper!However, I need the picture of Clinton and Mondale whooping it up at the Wellstone Rally, er, memorial service!Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I just found out that Bill Clinton will visit Pine Bluff this Sunday (11/03) in a repeat effort to get the illegals, non-registered voters and dead to vote a straight democRAT ticket.We don't have much time to get FReepers together to FReep the creep!This is from the Arkansas board:"Looks like we finally have the opportunity to FReep the creep! We need some creative ideas for signs. We need to let him know how much we "love" Arkansas's native son....as Budge says, the dope from Hope. I think he is being too polite. "Parsy, here's your chance to put some of...

Last year during the Klamath Falls fiasco created by the environmentalists over the legal authority by which the federal government was withholding water from the farmers – to protect the bottom-feeding sucker fish, which is said to be endangered or threatened, and the ensuing movement spearheaded by Jeff Head to get the water flowing to the farmers again, I longed to join the Bucket Brigade, the Shovel Brigade and just plain FReepers who were there. It really hit me when I read about the lack of sanitary facilities for our FReepers. I thought how great it would be if I...

We are asking for prayers for our friend, Jennifer B. who must undergo yet another MRI. Jennifer had started experiencing sever headaches over two years ago. The headaches worsened almost on a daily basis. She underwent surgery two years ago for sinus infections, however the surgery didn't seem to help. Jennifer recently underwent an MRI and doctors found something suspious, but were unsure exactly what it is. She has her next appointment tomorrow, Wednesday, to discuss the results of the previous MRI and at which time she should find out when the next MRI will be.Jennifer's mother is in close...

We recieved a phone call late last night that GalvestonBeachComber had been taken to the emergency room at John Sealy in Galveston.The two of us had planned a sight-seeing trip out west and had actually left Pine Bluff, Arkansas last Thursday, Aug. 29th. We made it as far as Bentonville, Arkansas where it was discovered he was suffering from congestive heart failure. We headed back to Pine Bluff where GBC picked up his car and continued home to see his doctor in Galveston as suggested by the doctor in Bentonville. I had planned to drive to Galveston today (Tuesday) and...

Our Tigger Of A President President Bush reminds me of Tigger, the bouncy, high-energy pal of Winnie-the-Pooh. The president's own doctors have recently pronounced him to be in superb condition. Let us all rejoice in that. Unfortunately, the president seems to possess Tigger's mindless optimism and self-confidence. When Congress recently forfeited its constitutional duty to set trade policy by passing fast-track legislation (the new Orwellian euphemism is "trade promotion authority"), Mr. Bush announced that he would accomplish magic with this authority. He will increase the number of American jobs, increase American exports and raise the living standards of all American...

I just recieved this in an e-mail from my nephew."It's 8:12a.m. and we are getting ready to leave to take Vicki to Baptist Hospital. She is having surgery this morning. Don't ask me for what, cuase I'm really not sure."To top it off, Kyle (my nephew) is going to have an angiogram Tuesday at the same hospital.He began having heart problems recently and I understand this is to determine the damage done.I know first hand the power of FReeper prayers and I shamelesly ask all of my FReeper Friends for Prayers for this young couple.

FOX News just showed a clip of the Changing Of The Guard in England.The band played The Star Spangled Banner rather than God Save The Queen.Forgive me for this vanity post, but just standing, watching, listening actually brought tears to this old man's eyes! PLEASE FOX News, show this clip more often!

As we all know the U.S. Treasury is issuing "state quarters" at the rate of five per year. In most states the people get to choose between several designs that most signifies the importance of a historical event. Connecticut features The Charter Oak. South Carolina features the state motto, The Palmetto State, showing the state bird and tree. New York has the Statue of Liberty with "Gateway to Freedom" emblazoned on it. Arkansas is to have its quarter released in 2003. By an overwhelming majority of, well a lot of folks, the number one entry for that states quarter, and ...
