    KENS-5 (San Antonio) ^ | 22 February 2010 | Wendy Rigby
    San Antonio is home to the nation's finest burn treatment facility, Brooke Army Medical Center. Because of major construction to expand the hospital, many clinic services have been temporarily moved to nearby Wilford Hall Air Force Medical Center. Article follows (Video at Link) San Antonio’s Wilford Hall Medical Center is making sure wounded warriors get the best treatments for their recovery. Our cameras were invited inside the operating room to show you a new tool designed to help those who’ve been badly burned. The scars of battle last a lifetime for many of the American troops injured in Operations Iraqi...

    There are conservatives, including some of us here on Free Republic, that consider the song "We don't get fooled again!" to have a conservative theme. The Who saved that for their final performance last night. Did anyone else note the extraordinary amount of cheering from the audience the first time they sang the refrain? Did you also catch Daltry's final line: "DON'T YOU GET FOOLED AGAIN!!!" ?

    If this issue has already been addressed; my apology. I did a search for the subject, but found nothing. Is anyone else having problems accessing Free Republic lately? Ever since the SOTU address, it's been almost impossible to access the site. Usually, I just get sent back to my orginal website instantly. At other times, after a several minute delay, I'll get a "connection could not be made/server proxy error; site down for maintenance or heavy traffic. I don't think it's a problem with my computer because I can get to any other site in a snap.

    Western Center for Journalism via WND email | 25 March 2009 | Floyd Brown
    I received this in an email from the folks at World Net Daily. While it was a solicitation to participate and donate for a fax campaign to the MSM, I found it to be an excellent summary of the issue. I have deleted all the solicitations: Is the biggest political crime in American history taking place right before our eyes? Is the man in the White House INELIGIBLE, according to the Constitution, to sit in the Oval Office... is he a FRAUD... a USURPER? Barack Hussein Obama could put the issue to rest right now by simply releasing his ACTUAL...
  • The Office of the President-Elect: Change.gov

    Someone earlier posted a link to a group called "change.org" that was very agenda driven, and censored conservative commentary. This one claims to be Obama's own sponsored site. I registered; reviewed; voted, and posted comments on many of the topics. While much of it is Left-wing, there are topics that conservatives hold dear (eg: 2nd amendment, the homosexual agenda; Healthcare proposals,etc). You may also post your own suggestion for the president-elect to consider (NO, not THAT kind!), but keep it serious, and maybe some good can come out of it. Some of the wacko ideas certainly need to be voted...
