Free Republic

OK fellow Freepers, I just got back from the local book store. The current issue has 8 cartoons of Rush Limbaugh as a crying baby on the cover. I couldn't find an article about Rush in the magizine and the article about the republicans made no sense to me. Am I the only one that doesn't get it. Is this a continuing effort to make Rush an enemy of the state. Thanks CDP

Take McCain at his word. If he now has eco friendy items in his online store, it would follow that the other items are not eco friendly and are killing the planet. Call on McCain to remove the planet killing items from his store....If he wants to join the greens, he has to go all the way.

Ok HELP HELPHELP…No Matter what we say, we are going to vote McCain…Hold you fire until I finish…I was toying with voting for Obama to stick it to the Florida Republican Party, but I have changed my mind…Granted we will have only 3 viable choices (stay home, Republican or Democrat) what will we do come Nov? ….Nobody is going to stay home…Pick the most palatable socialist? …It has to be McCain…for a campaign pin we need clothes pins with “Nose Holders for McCain”… Defendingliberty

Shame on Musberger ABC and ESPN for naming the person that touched the ball....

Will Arthur Blank be called on the carpet for mentioning Michael Vick and Fried Chicken in the same sentence 9:45 pm on ESPN? Al Sharpton Alert….

My local paper (Naples Daily News/ Florida) has nothing on the Teddy Bear story. Does yours?

Press Release November 15 2007 Professional Sports Carbon Footprint Reparations In 2007 the NFL planted 3000+ trees to offset the carbon footprint of the super bowl. They will be planting a similar number of trees to offset the carbon footprint of the 2008 super bowl. On the surface this appears as a proactive initiative on their part to save the planet. 3000 trees for one event. There are 32 NFL teams each team plays 8 regular season and 2 preseason home games, that’s 320 games plus 10 playoff games. That comes to 990,000 for the 2007 season alone. We here...

What idiots. NBC Football has blacked out their studio.

Ok it's a cheap laugh line.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Former Notre Dame quarterback Demetrius Jones expects to play next season at Northern Illinois, but the Fighting Irish will not make it easy for that to happen. The Irish will not release Jones from his scholarship this season, a university spokesperson said Wednesday, adding Notre Dame did not think the sophomore's departure "was handled appropriately." ....... Notre Dame's refusal to release Jones from his scholarship doesn't mean that Jones can't play for the Huskies next season, but it does mean he would have to pay his own way at Northern Illinois. Jones is allowed to practice...

Sticking it to the left with my new sign....

The anti war left defaced the Collier County Florida Republican Headquarters.... More photos at link, and my guess as to who were the usual suspects... The grafitti covered three sides of the building and the entire structure wil have to be repainted. By Defendingliberty

Jesse Jackson:" Religious and political. Religious in the sense that I believe that once a person has sinned, erred, and has shown contrition, that they are eligible for forgiveness, redemption and restoration. Mr. Clinton has shown contrition over and over again, and expressed his sense of shame and embarrassment. It seems that some Republicans do not want contrition, they want blood. In the political sense, I believe that Mr. Clinton has been good for America. While he, like all men, have sinned and fallen from the glory of God, his policies have helped workers, have helped seniors, have increased pay...

This is the story of Cody Anderson. He just returned to Naples, Florida after a 10 day trip to Kuwait and Iraq where he handed out 7000 phone cards to the troops.

An Interview with Cindy Sheehan by Joshua Frank Frank: I've heard a rumor that you may be looking to start your own third party. Is that true? Sheehan: Yes, it is true. I think that to save our democracy our country needs a viable and credible third party. This nation was founded on rule by a few rich white males, and for all intents and purposes, we are still ruled by a corporate elite. We need a third party that will represent all the people, not just the wealthy

Hugo Chaves didn't say anything I hadn't heard many times before on the Kook Left blogs. I wonder what his DU screen name is? Hugolovesnoam?

Here are the latest quotes from Cindy "Smoothie Fast" Sheehan "Casey was in the paramilitary Boy Scouts" "Then Casey "graduated" to soldier and started earning his "Man Scout" badges." "instead of the flags and Man Scout badges that our soldiers decorate their uniforms with, they should have their suits covered with corporate logos like NASCAR drivers. A Halliburton patch here and an Exxon patch there." and ......... Cindy is currently on the 8th day of the Troops Home Fast and writing from Italy where she will be awarded the highest honor that the Government of Tuscany can award a civilian:...

Hi all, I working of something akin to the doomsday clock. I would like to determine what percentage of the world is living under freedom. My first problem is, freedom is a relative term and varies from place to place. For example if you grew up in Georgia, you wouldn't consider yourself free in you now lived in New York City. But I am going to limit myself to people living under dictators or Communists Here is the list I have so far and I would like recommendations on candidates to add to it. China, Vietnam, Iran, North Korea, Zimbabwe...

RAMSTEIN, Germany — Saturday’s anti-war protest outside Ramstein Air Base was notable for what did not happen. Cindy Sheehan, the mother of a U.S. soldier killed in Iraq and the woman who protested last summer outside President Bush’s ranch, did not attend, even though weeks ago she was scheduled to participate in the event. Also, only about 30 protesters marched with crosses and rainbow peace flags from the town of Landstuhl to outside Ramstein Air Base. Protest organizers originally estimated as many as 500 participants.

The editorial is only availible to NYTimes paying costumers.The editorial in today's local paper by Bob Herbert of the times had just one line of any note ..."This story is never going away.Harry Whittington is Dick Cheney's Monica....This will stick to Cheney like Crazy glue and that's bad news for the Bush administration."
