Free Republic

<p>I'm a whiny Romney retard who knows nothing about the First Amendment and even less about the Sixth. That's why my revised graphic got pulled by the mods, this post was inane and stupid enough without it.</p>

When Obamacare passed Congress in 2010, 39 so called ‘Blue Dog’ House Democrats voted against the bill. Only 13 of which survived re-election in the 2010 Mid-Terms. When the 112th Congress voted on repealing Obamacare (HR.2), only Rep. Dan Boren (OK-2), Rep. Mike McIntyre (NC-7), and Rep. Mike Ross (AR-4) voted to repeal. The remaining 10 instead voted instead to keep Obamacare intact.

'United States Plus One – The Prospect of Puerto Rico as the 51st State'. When HR.2499, the Puerto Rico Democracy Act of 2010 passed the House 223 - 169, it barely gathered a whimper of press. The prospect of America gaining a new state would normally be newsworthy, yet H.R.2499 missed out. Meanwhile, decade old perceptions of Democratic gerrymandering, and opinions based on the 93 and 98 failed plebiscites re-surfaced. Is Puerto Rican Statehood gerrymandering for the Democratic Party? Can America afford another State? Why did Puerto Rico rejected Statehood twice?

The Jackie Mason Interview: There is not much more you can say about Jackie Mason, that hasn't already been said before. What continues to shine through, is Jackie's sheer bravery. While others are gaged by political correctness, Mason continually speaks with courage what is accurately on everyone's heart and mind. Solid Principles was privileged to have a short audience, with the man himself.

While Obama is capable of playing smart, he’s certainly not clever and this is why. Obama overlooked the factor that Democratic Administrations and tough economic times don’t work so well together.

While Orwell’s ‘1984′ & Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’ tend to corner the market when it comes to predicted dystopian societies, Anthony Burgess offered his own dystopian masterpiece in the form of 1962’s ‘The Wanting Seed’. It foresaw a culture that dealt with overpopulation by enforcing contraception, encouraging Self-sterilization and homosexuality. Overpopulation concerns from the left, have been floating around since the publication of Paul R. Ehrlich’s ‘The Population Bomb’ in 1968. The book was famous in exaggerating the future ramifications of excessive famine due to ‘overpopulation’. Most particularly, Ehrlich claimed, “In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people...

August is normally a quiet period for politics. A chance for Political Representatives to take a summer vacation, while news and talk radio padded for subject matter. That all changed when Obama’s Health Care Reform ‘went south’ and Town Hall meetings to prop them up occurred. They quickly became the forum to hurl concerns towards your local Congress or Senate member. They also showed, not a lot people liked what ‘Obamacare’ had to offer. More then anything else, Heath Care has been the rally cry the Right needed to unite the troops together. While certain outrage persists, Health Care Reform...

The Internet has now become a vital outlet for commerce, communications & social networking to name a few, and has now breed an over-dependence in our daily lives. It's also become a target from more sinister factions and made our critical infrastructure now extremely vulnerable to cyber attacks. I have just completed a 4 week period of research and production for an audio documentary called 'The Slow Road to Cybersecurity'. What I have encountered, has made me wish I had never known about it. Cybersecurity has now entered a new era of concern, our risk and vulnerability is becoming a...
