how many rounds do you want in your cartridge with: 1 perp 2 perps 3 perps 4 perps knowing that you might hit each perp with about 1 out of 3 shots taken. knowing that if you have an AR-15, you are not shooting 30-06, but 5.56

An amabassador, his aide, and two navy seals have been killed (Two Supreme Court Justices have been killed.) The CIA Director gives apparently misleading testimony, albeit not under oath, to Congress regarding these mens' deaths, in addition to having possibly given contradictory information to a woman with whom he has had an affair. (Now a college professor, who clerked for one of the two men, who's also having an affair with one of his students, is given a brief by her, that states who probably, wanted to see these two men dead.) A potential rival of the mistress gives information...

Rove is again slamming Cain (practically begging that folks demand from the National Restaurant Assoc. disclose documents) and then vigorously defends Romney against Plouffe's attack) It is transparent that he is a shill for Romney. I am getting sick of Fox repeatedly putting this jerk front and center to not so subtly attack Cain. F'em.

The Social Security system in my opinion is definitely a ponzi scheme and what follows is a way to fix it. If you agree with this approach, please cut and paste and pass it on to other forums.

Raleigh, N.C. — Seven-term Democratic Congressman Bob Etheridge on Wednesday said he will call for a recount in his re-election bid, where he trails Republican challenger Renee Ellmers by about 1,600 votes. Ellmers claimed victory late Tuesday, and The Associated Press also declared her the winner in the tight Second District race.

Just called Burr's office; Sen. Burr intends to vote YES cloture re S. 1776. The bill's passage will help hide the total cost for Obamacare. Yesterday his office stated that would be voting against cloture. This is a big turnaround. Call Sen. Richard Burr (NC) at 202-224-3154 and tell him to vote NO on cloture.

I've been looking for some reasonable estimates. Someone just called me to see if I was going, which I am, and said that it could be a million plus. Personally, if we get 50,000 plus marching on Saturday I'd be very happy.

Sessions just finished his second round of questions to Sotomayor in which he disclosed that Sotomayor served on the litigation committee while on the Board of the Puerto Rico Legal Defense Fund and that she reported on the litigation efforts by the Fund. He in essence stated that she didn’t disclose this to L. Graham when Graham was questioning her about her involvement and knowledge of litigation efforts, including language from specific legal briefs filed by the Fund equating the denial of Medicaid funded abortions with slavery. Yesterday Sotomayor in essence said that she didn’t represent them legally but was...

I just read a comment to a post on gateway pundit in which the commentator quoted another blog asking the following: Who will be Iran's George Bush?

NEW YORK (WABC) -- Don Imus announced on his radio show this morning that he has stage II prostate cancer. The 68-year-old Imus made the surprise announcement on his radio show at around 7:30 a.m.

U.S. Attorney Seeks Extension to Indict Blagojevich Patrick Fitzgerald has asked the court to grant him 90 days to review massive amounts of materials in the case against the Illinois governor.

Lynn Sweet reported that on November 5, 2008, Obama "wrapped up a day of planning for his transition at the office of his friend" John Rogers, the Ariel financial founder. The meeting reportedly took 6 hours. It has been reported that Obama met with/was going to meet with Blagojevich to discuss who would replace Obama in the Senate. Rogers is reportedly (per an LA Times blog) a campaign contributer to both Obama and Blagojevich. Obama denies speaking with Blagojevich about his replacement. Yeah, right.

Rush should offer to donate to Michael J. Fox's Foundation for Parkinson Research if the L.A. Times provided him an unedited copy of the Obama-Khalidi tape. How could they - or the source who allegedly wants to keep the tape confidential - refuse? If any Freeper knows how to get in touch with Rush to tell him of this idea, please pass it onward!

I hope to God that someone in the McCain reads this forum on a regular basis. Please, but please, attack Obama on his attempting a simple, deft, re-birth of the collectivist concept of the Great Society's Welfare State: 1. Obama is attempting to provide that 40% of the population that does not actually pay taxes with an earned income tax credit (this is a result of his allegedly providing 95% of the "taxpayers" with a tax cut.... 40% of those filing taxes don't pay taxes) 2. Witness Obama's insistance on raising capital gains, even though he acknowledged to Charlie Gibson...

Caveat: None of the following is to be relied upon by anyone for anything. Anyother words, I have no idea what is going to happen in the financial markets, and if anyone tries to tell you differently, they are a bloody fool!!! That said, before going to law school, I was a stockbroker (I know, I know, next it is selling used cars). I remember looking at my Quotron in 87 and seeing the Dow drop 25% in one day! Never paid much mind to the charts (was always zeroed in on fundamentals).... BUT, recently, when I looked at the...

If Palin is asked again about Supreme Court Decisions, she should state that she agrees with: Marbury v Madision (stating that the Supreme Court's province is judicial review, that is to interpret the law; which would give her a platform to state that this is what the Supreme Court is thus strictly limited thereby and is not empowered to "make law"); Brown v Board of Education (argued by Thurgood Marshall, Esq., the Court held that "separate but equal" did not pass constitutional muster); and that she found abhorent, and without proper basis to what is in the Constitution or in...

Consider the following: Courageous Mother (gorgeous to boot), who chooses life over abortion knowing tht she would be raising a Down's Sydrome child, thereby going against the "PC" line of thought; Mother is also lifetime NRA, and committed Pro-Life who is a Governor, hunts her own Moose (or is that Meese?); knows energy policy as well as any Washington policy wonk; Husband is a real guy; races Snow "Machines", works in the oil business (but apparently more as a roughtneck); and is a commercial fisherman (ever seen that Discovery show about the most dangerous catch about guys who fish in...

Andrea Mitchell said at the opening of the show that both Kaine and Bayh were told by the Obama campaign that they were not the V-P. She also intimated that it would be Biden and that Biden had yet to be told no.

I think I remember that someone wrote on Free Republic that Carol McCain had "cheated" on McCain while he was a POW. I have never seen this before, so I am probably mistaken in my memory. Has anyone read about this from any source with any credibility. Two wrongs don't make a right, but it would explain McCain's conduct. His philandering is one of the things that I've always found repugnant about the guy.

My wife is in the caribbean and was working on a document all day in her f:\ flash drive, that had she saved it recently within the past few minutes, and sudenly it totally disappeard for no reason? and now it is not even on the flash drove nor on any c:\ drive nor in any retrieval any search or recovery method?
