Free Republic

I'm sure it won't be reported by the mainstream media, but does anyone have an idea on how Atlas Shrugged did at the box office this weekend?

Sadly, it's being reported that Major Dick Winters, winner of the Distinguished Service Cross and former commanding officer of "Easy" Company of the 506th Parachute Infantry Division of World War II fame, has passed away at the age of 92. No further information has been made available. To all freepers who are familiar with Major Winters, you are all aware of the magnitude of the lost America has suffered. To Major Winters, May God bless you and receive you to his loving bosom.

I've finally calmed down and got my blood pressure under control after witnessing that disgraceful and treasonous exhibition the Democrats put on during El Presidente Calderon's address to a joint session of the Congress. Is there anyone out there who has the time or ability to determine which elected officials were giving El Presidente his ill deserved applause?

I'm unable to find it again, might someone other Freeper know of this site? Thanks for your help.

Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve had the enjoyment of reading a tremendous amount of information on FreeRepublic, and the one patently obvious fact is that the FreeRepublic is the site of American Patriots. I want to make a proposal. I don’t make it lightly and most importantly, I think the time is ripe for what I’m about to suggest. First, a little about me. I am a retired U.S. Coast Guard Senior Chief Petty Officer, that’s E8 for our non-nautical brethren. I served honorably from January, 1970 through May, 1991. I’m currently employed by a major wireless company, and otherwise lead...
