I truly believe that Biden is faking senility, and for good reason. It's the latest chapter in the DNC/media scam operation. There are recent examples of Biden speaking to groups where he is rather cogent, and sounds normal. We don't hear those in the press; rather we hear those which show him bumbling and lost. Why? I remember many months ago, when Biden met with Obama, and Obama told him, "You don't have to do this, Joe.". DO WHAT??? They knew back then that SloJo was culpable in the Ukraine/Hunter Biden/pay-to-play debacle. The tape is widely available of Joe addressing...

With the photo recently of Chelsea,Hillary and McCain all sporting medical boots on their right foot, I was wondering if anyone has seen Bubba,and whether he is part of the new fashion rage. Speculation has been that they might be tracking devices,in case they get nervous and try to leave the country as the noose tightens. Perhaps to a country without an extradition agreement. Just sayin'.

When the cadaver Frank Lautenberg was resurrected to fill in for the disgraced Torricelli in the New Jersey Senate race years ago (even though it was too late to substitute someone; they're Democrats. Who cares?), I don't remember any ruckus being raised about conflict of interest. If I recall correctly, Lautenberg was the founder and owner of ADT, the largest payroll service company in the nation. Had he divested himself before becoming a member of Congress? Were the howler monkeys in the press all agitated by this businessman having a conflict? Maybe my fellow Freepers know the details. I stand...

Whoopi Goldberg actually defends Chick-Fil-A on the basis of free speech in America. Good for you, lady!

Why is Obama pimping his latest scam almost exclusively on college campuses? I believe his natural proclivity toward academia makes this seem an obvious choice. But the less obvious reasons merit consideration. If you need to be seen, day after day, being cheered by people who appear to support your views, and your proposal is viewed negatively by working people, why not speak to audiences that are "work illiterate"? More taxes are not what working families are interested in, and they are sometimes vocal about their opposition. Don't get caught talking to them! Too risky!! Instead, go speak to crowds...

Combine class warfare, demonizing the rich, getting as many people onto the welfare rolls as possible, and pushing the economic system to collapse and you have a flawless formula for Cloward-Piven 2.0 -- and a vehicle that ensures Obama remains in power.

I remember reading recently that Obama met with a gun-grabber group or member, and assured them that things were being done "under the radar" to advance the cause of gun control. With the "gunwalker" stuff hitting the fan, I wonder if the parties to that conversation deserve a subpoena?

Interesting commentary going on there right now.

I'm puzzled. I just looked up the movie, "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed", on Netflix. It was classified as "Availability unknown", but it also has a rating of 3.4 out of 5 stars, based on opinions of 383 people who viewed the film. Has this been pulled by Netflix? Did someone get an injunction against it or something? How can over 300 people have viewed it and rated it, yet the movie is not currently available? Seems fishy to me. Anyone know what the deal is here?

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - February 7, 2007 - State Sen. Vincent J. Fumo pleaded not guilty Wednesday to federal charges he used state workers and a nonprofit group for his personal and political benefit, and surrendered more than 200 firearms as a condition of his bail. Fumo declined to comment as he entered the federal building. His lawyer, Richard A. Sprague, scheduled a news conference for Thursday. Fumo was released on a $100,000 bond after agreeing to surrender more than 200 weapons - including collectible firearms and VERY LARGE MACHINE GUNS - from his various homes. They will be kept in...

I am requesting help in tracking down a charity organization that I have heard mentioned on Rush Limbaugh several times.I think it has the name "Marines" in its title. It does not appear on his website, (or I can't find it there), but he has often spoken of his fondness for this charity because they use 100% of contributions for the intended purposes, as opposed to the 40-60% that most charities have left after they deduct their marketing expenses and such. Does this ring a bell with anyone? Thanks in advance, and my apologies if this is off-topic and offends...

I am frustrated. I was just listening to the floor debate on legislation to remedy the Kelo vs. New London debacle. Bonilla of Texas said that in one committee (agriculture?), only one person voted against the proposed cure to this awful Supreme Court decision. How do I find out who that one person was? The House website is hard to navigate, and just doesn't want to tell you who voted how. I had no better luck with Thomas. Should this information be so hard to acquire? Thanks in advance for any help you might offer!

I'm watching the Eagles have their way with the Saints. It's halftime, so I'm in the kitchen making my obligatory beef sandwich, and I hear "Mr. Jo-Jo Starbuck" talking about McNabb, I believe, and I heard him say something about "without rehab". The whole panel lost it with uproarious laughter, and I instinctively started doing a slow burn. Anyone catch the comment, So I can get my blood pressure back in order? Thanks! Terry Bradshaw is capable of saying anything, so I'm prepared for the worst.

He went to Panama to try to steal an election. He then went to Israel and did steal an election. He then went to New York to help Hitlery beat little Ricky. Now he is nowhere to be found, while the largest election theft in history is being orchestrated in Florida, and he is below the radar screen. Meantime, his misguided wife is popping up all over TV, playing nice-nice, and not a word about her demon-seed husband. Strange? I have visions of him in Israel, sweating over a clandestine printing press, cranking out counterfeit absentee ballots to be mailed ...

Heads up! A smear is about to take place on the Disney Network (ABC), as the condescending Canadian walks us through a portrait of the National Rifle Association. Hope I don't shoot the TV. 8 PM in the East. Nothing follows.

THE HERALD-NEWS, DAYTON, TENNESSEE, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 2000, P. A-4 (reprinted by permission) Tennessee hasn't had a native son in the White House in more than a century. Certainly most Tennesseans would agree it would be good to have one of our own as president. The question is whether Al Gore is still a Tennessean and whether we can afford for him to be president. Al Gore is not the man Tennesseans sent to Washington as vice president in 1992. He's certainly not the same man Fourth District voters made the youngest Congressman in decades at the tender age of ...

Al Gore knows he's going to lose. What can he do at this late date to save his lame political career, and raise his stature among his "fellow travelers" in the party of division? What can he do? Brainstorm! Pick a Jew as a running mate! Not just any Jewish politician....... an Orthodox Jew! Why? Quite simple. The Democrats have always made political hay by dividing people. They love their buzzwords...Hate crime, anti-Semite, extremist, homophobe, "extra-chromosome" right wingers (Al Gore original, that one), etc. With this election cycle lost, they have to go back to that which they know best, ...

I lost my sound card driver, and had to reinstall it. To test it, I went to the FEATURED LINKS page here on FR, to pop into a talk show as a test. All I get is a YAHOO page saying "This page unavailable for viewing". Is it me, or are others having the same problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

Former Black Panther H. Rap Brown is currently being sought for the shooting death earlier today of a police officer who was trying to serve him legal papers. I thought I would use this occasion to share the following excerpt from Barbara Olson's latest book, "Hell to Pay", which chronicles the life and times of America's answer to Evita, Hillary Rodham Clinton: pp.54-56 HILLARY AND THE BLACK PANTHERS With her sandals, stringy hair, Coke-bottle glasses, and a black arm band worn in remembrance of the dead at Kent State, Hillary was gaining prominence in the Yale protest movement.She was seen ...
