Anyone in Paul Ryan's district, that would like to see him replaced??

My "hood" is not Baltimore or Ferguson. But if the our men and women in blue can be bullied in Texas, it can happen anywhere. We need to start a movement NOW! #LoveourBlue- heck we have throwback thursdays on FB and Mancrush Mondays... why not#LoveourBlue Tuesdays? Our men and women in blue NEED to know that we support them. And our communities NEED to know that we demand our neighbors live as law abiding citizens. Please start the LOVE OUR BLUE movement in YOUR area- call your local police dept, ask what you can do to let them and your...

My son is graduating from college! Worked his way through on his own! As a gift, I am taking him to NYC. Staying with my sister in Queens. I want to do just ONE thing that is extra special- like to a taping of the The Tonight Show? Any ideas, suggestions? We will be going to see Statue of Liberty, Coney Island, Central Park, etc... But I am looking for one thing that will stand out for a young man graduating college-- no girlie clubs! MOM is on this trip!

I remember years ago, we "melted" the phones in DC over the amnesty issue. I am also well aware of the fact that DC learned their lesson that day. We have melted the phones since then; the difference is that the staffers in DC stopped admitting it, and the media stopped reporting it. I have heard it straight from one Congressman's mouth- the staffers themselves have said, "their just people." How many times have you heard friends, family, co-workers, etc claim they don't vote, because their vote doesn't matter anyway? We here at Free Republic are all very well aware...

According to sources we trust, Obama is planning to sign 5 to 9 million illegal aliens full amnesty. His plan is to do this while Congress is on vacation, this session ends on Friday. My sources tell me that House GOP members are meeting right now about this. Let's help Sessions out and melt those lines-- ALL WEEK! NO WHITE FLAGS!

In the midst of events in this day, I think sharing the information below may be informative to most, and useful to all. I wrote the below, 10 years ago. While Arafat may be dead, HAMAS is only carrying on his intent. I wrote this a decade ago. I no longer have the sources, they are on another computer that rests in peace. But I encourage you to do your own homework. I worked HARD on the facts. More information will be in a link in the comments. HE WALKED AWAY This is what the MSM will not tell you...

First-- thanks to all of you for your wonderful warm wishes and congrats when I posted the first thread. As you can imagine, it has been a bit overwhelming, but I shared many private messages with many of you. Everyone has been just top notch with advice and sharing great personal stories of their own experiences with adoption. THANK YOU! Everything is going GREAT! We talk via email, FB, or phone almost everyday. There have been ZERO issues. Her family and mine are very supportive. Sometimes she calls just to vent about silly things. We send videos back and forth...

I just talked with Congressman Dr Paul Broun. He is running to replace Saxby as US Senator from GA. I need anyone and everyone who is interested in helping or learning to please contact me via FREEPmail. I have personally spent time with this man, praying, dining, etc.. He is a present US Congressman from GA, but not MY Congressman. I have never been able to vote for him, because I am not in his district, yet he is always there when I need him. ALWAYS! In the comment section of this thread I will be providing information about him....

I gave away a little girl for adoption over 22 years ago. I have tried to find her, but she found me first. Needless to say, this has been the BEST CHRISTMAS in my life ever. Bad news- she had a daughter of 6 months old pass away in November. I never got to know about her before her passing. The good news. I am a grandma! I have a grandson who just so happens to share the same birthday as my son! She has forgiven me. And wants to meet me. Choosing LIFE is nothing to brag about. A...

Now is the time. All Americans should now take a stand for our Military. It is our turn to fight for them. The American people should DEMAND Obama, Clinton, and Panetta all resign, for the safety of our troops and Ambassadors worldwide. March, call your Reps in DC, whatever it takes. These people should resign in shame, at the VERY least.......

My first year doing Fantasy Football..... Got some good players...Hakeem(out this week- ugh), Reggie Bush, etc.... BUT! Big Question... Do I use Phillie as my Defense, or NY Giants.....I know Carolina D sux, but how is their Offense??? clock tickin....speak now, or forever....well you know.....

Many of you have friends and family in the military. Other than my grandfather, Navy- WWII, I do not. My son's best friend, like my own, leaves for Afghanistan later this month. We have a lot of history. This is so hard. Anyway- I am planning a going away party for him. It will be a "scavenger hunt." A trip down memory lane. All of his friends are contributing. "I remember when...." For instance, he and my son ran track, they will go to the old school track and take a picture there. We had a camping trip, they will...

I don't know how to do a screen shot.... need help to make a screen shot of a page on web.. http://www.kw.com/homes-for-sale/30157/GA/Dallas/263-Southern-Oaks/3yd-FMLSGA-4322508.html thx

Dear Herman “WE can do this.” When your lovely Gloria chose those words, she showed just how wise she is. She knows you so well. You think you are the smartest, strongest guy in the room. It is always up to YOU to solve the problems, rally the troops, lay out the plans, and execute the battle. With her simple words, she shared her love, inspiration, and the gentle reminder that YOU are NOT alone. Your team mates are well aware that the pundits, elites, and media are out to destroy you. They are trying to make an example of...

HEARD THIS SONG SAT NIGHT.... I REMEMBER THIS SONG FROM SO MANY YEARS AGO...BUT HEARING IT TODAY, MADE ME WEEP...I MISS THE DAY OF AMERICAN PRIDE. THE DAYS WHEN WE EMBRACED WHO AMERICA TRULY IS. WE ARE NOT LAZY DEAR READER OBAMA WE ARE AMERICA.... I HOPE YOU ALL FIND A NEW APPRECIATION FOR THIS SONG AS I DID.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRTHdC7k4uY&feature=related

Cain Accusers Demand Polygraph Test Where are they? Where are all the accusers? Shouldn't they be standing at a presser with attorneys and demanding Herman Cain follow up on his offer to take a polygraph? If this were truly about truth and abuse by powerful men, or women, for that matter, wouldn't that be exactly what they would demand? Fellow FREEPer indylindy pinged me with this thought that she had heard voiced by a Rush caller today. Honestly, I think a polygraph would just make a circus out of the....well, the circus. But if I were a woman abuse by...

I feel the urge to come clean. All these women have inspired me to confess. Yes, I made Herman feel uncomfortable. I couldn't help myself. It was the very first time I had ever seen him speak, and his conservative views, along with that sexy voice was just not fair to a woman like me. I was a single mother, who had not even dated for years. I was politically active. He tempted me! So here is what happened: I was leaving the event where I had heard him speak. On the way out the door, this tall, dark, and...

ROFL!!! All My Children-- LAST episode today-- What an ending-- My grandma watched this show, so I have had years of exposure.... In high school, my sister and I got hooked. heard the show was ending- so decided to check in this week. Jackson exits with a "Frankly my Dear" moment to Erica-- but the kicker was the Dallas reference. Good ol' JR Chandler has a gun, hiding somewhere. Aims at dad- Eric runs after Jackson. Does she step in front of the line of fire? Gun shot rings out- screen goes black.. LOL!!! Not Who Shot JR-- but who...

Herman Cain was just on fire last night. He does so well in these debates. I am SICK of Rick Romney. They both just look like MSM political tools. The MSM eats it up- along with the left. I am not going to let them tell me Cain doesn't have a chance. He is a problem solver- not a fund raiser. He is great at CREATING wealth- not pandering for folks do just hand over cash for political favors. Beck brought up Clinton and his blaming Israel for lack of peace today. Clinton knows damn well it was Arafat's love...
