Free Republic

Been awhile... I'm still struggling with the ol' ticker, so I don't get here much any more. But this has me furious!!! Any Democrat idiot that thinks this Foley deal is going to keep conservatives home has no understanding of the conservative passion. Bad heart or not, I WILL be at the voting booth, dragging every friend, neighbor and family member I can reach with me, forcefully if necessary.

I will not take this obvious vicious attack from the left sitting down. There's no way I'll sit by and let that pack of self centered power mongers take over and ruin the futures of my grand children.

This is the third victory in the courts for good sense at the polls in the last two days.

Add this one to the decisions in Ohio and Florida that refuse the Democrats demand for paper ballots to go along with the electronic record to make recounts more likely.

You are right. I'm just trying to keep with the tradition of gentleness here on FR. By the way, I'm one of those "OLD" Freepers. My name, "Committed" showed up here all the way back in the mid 90's, not long after Free Republic was invented. I don't see many of the old names anymore.

Click on GIANT Antispyware

I'm getting old. It's a great excuse for this type of error.

It's almost impossible to avoid spyware if you go anywhere at all on the internet. Most is fairly mild and is intended to help send advertisements your way that fit your browsing habits. But some are much greater threats. Browser Hijackers are particularly irritating and unwanted. They steer you where you don't want to go when you're on line.

The worst I've seen yet is a form of a Trojan recently pushed on the unsuspecting that does not take the form of a virus, thereby avoiding virus scans of web pages. It installs software on your machine which works on lengthy connections like DSL and Cable. When the computer is idle, the Trojan goes out and "invites" endless numbers of malware to load on your computer. You can imagine the horrific results. It hooks in very deeply and is very hard to get rid of because it rebuilds itself every time it's removed and you re-boot.

The program, GIANT Antispyware (mentioned before) allowed me to recognize it's presence. Getting rid of it was much tougher, requiring work in the registry and more. This one was invited in by simply clicking on the word "NO" when a window popped up warning of unauthorized file download. It looked exactly like the Windows security warning window. I should have hit the "X" in the upper right corner, but wasn't thinking. Public flogging would be appropriate for the jokers that write this stuff.

My brother and I have been in the IT business for years. We fight this stuff all the time and use many tools. Our most recent discovery is an effective bit of software named "GIANT Anitspyware", available for free trial at www.giantsoftware.com.

It has proven to be a great addition to our arsenal.

As much as I hate this type of outcome, we had better get used to it. It's the only language Islamic terrorists understand and one day we will have to understand that if we are to have any chance of putting a stop to them. Hat's off to Putin.

I sincerely wish I had been the person at the table asked to vacate for Boy Clintin and party!

The situation in Venezuela does't get much press, here or in the conventional media. When Chavez was running for president and the polls indicated he would win, I sounded the strongest warning I could, on my radio talk show program, that Venezuela was headed for serious trouble with him in power.

Now, some years later, my predictions have proven quite true. But what most of us seem to miss is the problem it creates for us, here in the USA. Among other despots and communist/socialists, Chavez has aligned himself with Islamic oil producing countries and their leaders, including Iraq.

This creates a huge threat to our own economic stability. Much of our oil comes from Venezuela and the countries Chavez has aligned himself with. If they jointly cut off our supply, we are left with only a fraction of the imported oil we need to sustain our economy. The United States would do well to heed the danger posed by Chavez and his associates.

While the world sits on their hands and blames Israel, the Israelis will do what they have to do with this information. It's sad, but they are willing to protect themselves and their sovernty whether the nations of the world agree or not, just as we would under the same circumstances.

There comes a time when a nation must act in it's own interests to survive. But, at the same time, there are steps that Israel can take to repair their image, such as ceasing the building of new settlements in traditional Palistinian territory. It seems that Sharon is now willing to back off a bit from his aggressive push in that area, but perhaps a bit too late to make a real impression.

The whole situation over there is sad to watch. I really don't think it will be resolved. The three "great" monotheistic religions of the world (Judiasm, Christianity and Islam) started directly in the middle east from the same root, Abraham, and now we are witnessing the ultimate clash of religious ideals in the same spot. Only direct intervention by God Himself will resolve this one.

Arrafat may be neutralized, but the basic problem in that area will only get worse until it builds into the greatest conflagration the world has ever witnessed.

Go ahead....... stone me. ;-)

Just think of the uproar there would be if the Jews had siezed a mosque..........

Earth to Zulu....... The terrorist attacks will not end until Isreal no longer exists and not a single Jew breathes on the sands of the Middle East. The Palistinians and their Islamic supporters around the world are not the least bit interested in peaceful coexistance of Isreal and a Palistinian state.

Worth noting.... In the past, the Dems could count on the mass media to cover their s**t covered butts when they pulled a stupid stunt like the Pickering smear. But this time, it will fall apart. America no longer watches ABC, NBC, CBS or CNN. They watch FOX News, and FOX is telling it like it is. They will rue this one in November.

"Democrats will pay a political price for their Borking of U.S. District Judge James Pickering of Mississippi."

You got that right!!!! Stupid Buzz Dasshit has WAY underestimated the south. He'll learn in November.

Dick Morris is an idiot. He cites traditional voting trends, but fails to realize that people are getting sick and tired of the obstructionist Democrats in the Senate led by a fellow idiot, Tom Daschle.

My left coast brother (Anahiem) believes the end is near for Davis. We can only hope.

Isn't it neat how all this started just after Dumb Daschell started attacking the president's war effort? Let's call it just returns for all Klinton's real "wag the dog" routines.

Carter's the same old idiot he was when he was president. Nobody but the liberals pays him any attention.

See #34, my reply.

'scuse, please...... I'm getting old.

I've had great fun through this past year harrassing the good citizens of Modesto and area about Condit when I'm out there on business. Every one of them told me they wouldn't vote for him again, period. Of course, I always have to ask why they voted for him to begin with.......
