Free Republic

It’s the latest euphemism for the radical left. The American public may have finally caught on to the previous euphemism, “progressive.” Justice Democrats aren’t fooling around, and they’re not bothered by many of the considerations that dog their more moderate colleagues. Justice Democrats must feel that the time is right to lay at least a few of their cards on the table and to oppose those party members they call “radical conservatives.”

On Sunday, Netflix aired a “Salute to Abortion,” hosted by “comedian” Michelle Wolf, who closed the segment with a star-spangled, flag-waving, drum corps declaration: “God bless abortion!” On her weekly Netflix program, “The Break with Michelle Wolf,” Wolf used Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy’s announced retirement to tout abortion rights and demean pro-life Americans, with “jokes” like: “And, I know, some people call themselves ‘pro-life’- but, ‘pro-life' is a propaganda term that isn’t real, like healthy ice cream and handsome testicles.”

"Our No. 1 goal for the next year is to put together a complete alternative to the left's agenda," Mr. Ryan said. . ."

We often hear about the glory days of immigration when America threw open her arms to the huddled masses, but one thing you don’t hear about is how those people had to make it on their own without a government safety net. There was plenty of private charity, which was highly encouraged, but health care, a minimum-wage job, college entrance, housing, legal representation, and education certainly weren’t promised—not like today.

Perhaps we need to pray for the second coming After reading headlines and the news this morning, I realized that the only way out of our rush to chaos, is to find a leader who can awaken the sleeping, invigorate the downhearted, punish the guilty and annihilate the evil.

Here are two different interviews of Neil Armstrong. The cited interview is much longer and was done just this year. The second is from 1970. Short and very informative re: what he saw on and from the Moon. I found them fascinating and wanted to share with my FRiends. Enjoy and thank the Lord for allowing us to "know" a man like Neil Armstrong.

Five years ago, we set out on a quest to try to get government funding for the ultimate ridiculous project: a museum of government waste. While this might sound like a joke, sadly, it’s not. Every year, your federal government spends billions of dollars on things like swine odor research, a museum of magic, and researching why chimps throw their own poop. So we thought we’d head to Washington and try to get our own piece of pork.

I hate vanities, but need to let all those close to the Third Congressional District in Kansas (Kansas City, Olathe, Overland Park, Leawood, etc.) that John Rysavy is a Constitutionalist who supports American Judeo-Christian values. He needs help because he is running against a Republican who is not awful, but who has been in KS politics for many years. John is a "newbie" who believes that, as a nation, we need new blood that understands COMMON SENSE. His website is above. Please check him out, and if you can, please donate generously of your time, your talent or even your...

I hope I'm putting this in the correct place. I need information. I was just terminated (love the use of that word) for what could be considered "gross misconduct" (I "hurt the feelings" and spoke "in a mean way" to my boss). I had been working at a church. Although I have not been notified, I do not believe I am eligible for COBRA because I was working at a church and because I was terminated for "gross misconduct."

SALT LAKE CITY - An off-duty police officer having an early Valentine's Day dinner with his wife was credited Tuesday with helping stop a rampage in a crowded shopping mall by an 18-year-old gunman who shot five people to death before he was killed by police. A day after the shooting, investigators struggled to figure out why a trench-coated Sulejmen Talovic opened fire on shoppers with a supremely calm look on his face.

It was revealed last week that Advanced Cell Technology (ACT) of Worcester, Massachusetts, a prominent privately owned biotechnology firm, has a plan to mass-produce human embryos. The firm also has a plan to render those same embryos nonexistent. ACT is attempting to develop a technique to produce "cloned human entities," who would then be killed in order to harvest their stem cells, as first reported by Washington Post science writer Rick Weiss (July 13). As Associated Press biotechnology writer Paul Elias explained in a July 13 report, "Many scientists consider the [anticipated] results of Advanced Cell's technique to be ...

American Life League today launched a national campaign to convince WalMart – the world’s largest retailer – to stop operating as a referral service for Planned Parenthood, the world’s leading abortion provider. Although WalMart pharmacies do not fill prescriptions for “emergency contraception,” they do refer women seeking the “morning after pill” to their local affiliate of Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood is the world’s most committed destroyer of human life in the womb, responsible for millions of dead babies each year. “Our intent is to inform the American public that the ‘morning after pill’ causes abortion, and to help WalMart customers ...

MISSION As you may have noticed, there have been threads running all weekend looking for volunteers to help fight Senate passage of the bill to give Permanent NTR status to China. We are using this opportunity to do three things: 1) Make a serious effor to affect this vote; 2) Show ourselves that Freeper Power can be AWSOME and 3) Create an organization, national and statewide, that can be used for future efforts and protests. Below is an outline for that discussion and all of its attendant branches of activism. These are the MISSIONS of Senate Storm. If we are ...

We're going to make a FUSS! Today, following the vote by the House of Representatives, a number of us on the Firetalk Forum decided it was time to act. The Senate must vote on this bill. If we can change one vote, wonderful; but our goal is to change all votes to reflect our point of view. We're going with a two-pronged approach: inform the public so they'll help us pound the Senate. So far, we've developed a few ideas that will allow us to bombard the Senate with communications from 1,000,000 people. This will only work if YOU do. ...

ALERT: House May Vote Thursday on Roe v. Wade Washington -- The National Right to Life Committee expects a vote on Thursday, May 25th, on a motion to express approve of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion on demand. The motion would endorse a resolution expressing the opinion that Roe v. Wade "secures an important constitutional right, and such decision should not be overturned." This pro-abortion resolution was first offered in the Senate last October 21st by pro-abortion Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA), where it was adopted (as an amendment to the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act) on ...

I apologize for the vanity post. However, some of you are aware of how much my father has meant in my life and in understanding the values and ideas that have kept America free -- at least until now.Today he was admitted to the hospital in Cape Coral with congestive heart failure. Our family has one good friend in Naples who is also a doctor. (My dad is 88 and is a retired GP). The doctor in Naples said, after speaking with the ER attending doctor, that he thought we (more than one of the 5 children) should come down. ...

By Delaying her Move to Chappaqua Till January, She Avoided NY Income Taxes WASHINGTON, April 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Hillary Rodham Clinton may have registered to vote in New York in December of 1999, but she didn't move into her new Chappaqua, NY mansion until January -- and thereby avoided paying New York state income taxes, the Chairman of the Republican National Committee charged today. "Hillary Clinton is still a stranger to New York income taxes," charged RNC Chairman Jim Nicholson. "Anybody who wants to represent New York in the Senate ought to know first-hand about New York state taxes, and ...
