Free Republic

George Washington was a slave-owner. It is clear from that fact alone, in the interest of peace and harmony, decency and fairness, sensibility and sanity, and in an effort to avoid any insensitivity toward all of our peoples, especially the indigenous and the non-citizen immigrant, let alone long-suffering great-great-great-great-great grandchildren of former slaves, that the capital city of our fair land must be re-named. Some of the leading candidates are listed below. Please feel free to add your own: Che' Guevara City Orwell D.C. Swamp City Momument Free City

The NYPD is on the warpath over a judge releasing a man after he attacked a female officer in an attempt to steal her gun at a Brooklyn precinct because he wanted to “kill a cop.” Kurdel Emmanuel, 29, was at the 83rd Precinct in Brooklyn Saturday to ask about the status of a friend who had been arrested. At that time, he allegedly attacked a female officer, grabbed onto her belt, and fought with her as he tried to remove her gun from its holster. He was overtaken and arrested.

This is my yearly repost of my (faux-)live (faux-)bagpipes version of "The Star-Spangled Banner." Happy Independence Day! (To download a free copy of the song, click here.)

For too long, Hollywood has inserted offensive, lewd, vulgar, and violent content into movies, leaving few appropriate movie options for families. The good news is that Sony Pictures recently announced a ‘Clean Version’ pilot program. This program will allow families to rent clean versions of certain movies. That’s right, these movies will have foul language, sexual content, and explicit violence edited out. This is fantastic news for family audiences! But the battle for the family is never easy. Some powerful filmmakers are furious with Sony Pictures for offering this option to families and Sony is already wavering. Director Judd Apatow...

Kirk Cameron thinks America needs spiritual revival. The “Fireproof” and “Growing Pains” actor is promoting the May 16 DVD release of “Revive Us,” a live worship and prayer experience which was held last Oct. 18 just before the presidential election.  Simulcast live in over 800 theaters across America, “Revive Us” was led by Dr. Ben Carson, Pastor Francis Chan, Eric Metaxas, Dr. James MacDonald and other Christian leaders. "Last year, running up presidential election, I was traveling all across country, and I was hearing parents saying they were concerned about their children; that our country was off track; that we...

Chris Wallace is such a discussing P.O.S. when he attempts to appear as a tough journalist...when he is clearly just another liberal attack animal going after anyone who supports Trump...what a dirt bag.....

$ electors pledged to clinton in Washington voted for others. 3 voted for Colin Powell and one voted for an eagle. Ha Ha

No need for much blabber!!! The picture is as clear as can be. Paul Ryan is destroying the entire Republican Party and is taking our country down, at the same time. I suggest, the Republicans in the House fire him immediately, and. elect a new Speaker of the House that fully supports the Republican ticket from A-Z. Have you representatives have no back bone??? This dude Ryan is poison for anything he and his ilk touch!!! Come November 8th, if Hillary Clinton is elected POTUS....suppported fully by your own House Speaker, Paul Ryan, your political party will go into history...

What has happened to him? I used to listen to him religiously everyday on my way home from work. However, over the last 3 weeks or so, I rarely tune him in as I'm tired of his continuous Trump bashing. So today, I figured if I tuned him in, he'd finally admit that Cruz was done after the Trump rout last night. But what does he do on his opening monologue today? Yep, he continues his bashing and whining about Trump meeting up with Bobby Knight today. After 4-5 minutes of his crap, I finally tuned him out and listened...

A vote cast for either Ted Cruz or John Kasich is a vote cast for Hillary Clinton. I would suggest to potential voters who favor or intend to vote for either Ted Cruz or, John Kasich....that they take a good, long, hard, strategic & searching look, before they give their support and votes to Ted Cruz & John Kasich Both gents have failed miserably in their direct voter quest, and are now eliminated from ever reaching the required numbers of delegates to gain the GOP POTUS nominee nod. So......their "smoke filled back room" underhanded tactics commence. Should they be successful...

On a re­cent swing through Iowa, Carly Fior­ina kept a rig­or­ous cam­paign sched­ule. At six cam­paign stops over the course of two days and 300 miles, Fior­ina spoke in front of Re­pub­lic­an crowds at three col­leges, an ice cream par­lor, a vine­yard, and an out­door tiki bar. And at each event, staffers work­ing for a su­per PAC that sup­ports Fior­ina’s can­did­acy were one step ahead of the cam­paign. Tra­di­tion­ally, a polit­ic­al cam­paign will have ded­ic­ated staffers on the ground to “ad­vance” the can­did­ate, ar­riv­ing at an event space be­fore the can­did­ate shows up, mak­ing sure the room is dec­or­ated with...

Paramatta, AUS. by Cecil Throckmorton-Sykes, Neutral Liberal Journalist Shocking violations! Not only did an innocent, very well-dressed, inherently superior Muslima punch a male cop in the face, but when her cell phone was confiscated from its hiding place she justifiably shrieked at the female cop, “Don’t touch my phone, you’re a whore, you are Christian, you will burn in hell. You will be the first one in uniform to have your throat slit.” Naturally, to right this injustice to the sacred personage of the well-dressed Muslima, Magistrate Margaret “Maxi-Pads” McGlynn dropped the charges against her, even though not only had...

No, I am not a renowned tech journalist, nor a 50,000+ followers Twitter guru or an extreme sports fitness expert. I am just a regular sales guy, happily married and blessed with two daughters of 7 weeks and 3 years old. And just so you can put this article into perspective: besides being a father of two young children, I am a business man so I constantly receive some form of communications during the day which I usually answer from either my desk or my car (handsfree of course). I am not into sports (does golf or brisk walking count?)...

BuzzFeed has written a full-length article about Tom Hanks crossing his legs on the subway. The piece, called "Tom Hanks Is Just A Regular Guy Who Takes Up Too Much Room On The NYC Subway," attacks the actor for "manspreading," as BuzzFeed calls it. An entire article because of this picture, despite the fact that BuzzFeed readily admits it "does appear there are empty seats in the subway car:" How dare Hanks, writes the article's author, Alison Vingiano. "Hanks," Vingiano quips, "is probably not a frequent rider, however, because it doesn’t seem like he’s down with the MTA’s new rules...

Last month, Ford made headlines for an allegedly unapproved ad featuring Silvio Berlusconi with a trunk full of gagged, hog tied, and crying women. And now McDonald's is fielding a PR failure for an unapproved ad that went public. The ad, found as a poster on the Boston metro, parodied mental health and depression PSAs: "You're not alone. Million of people love the Big Mac," the ad reads, next to the photo of a crying woman and an 800-number that connects to McDonald's corporate office.

Four years ago today, on St. Patrick’s Day 2009, Walter Francis Fitzpatrick, III (Ret.) filed a criminal complaint of treasonagainst Barack Hussein Obama after he allowed U.S. Army soldiers to deploy into Samson, AL to perform law enforcement duties in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act, which the Army Inspector General confirmed several months later after completing its investigation. The Post & Email can report that a group of Obama supporters at “The Fogbow” includes an attorney working in the White House by his own admission. Trolls who have reportedly been paid to post Obama-supportive and distracting comments register at...

Springtime seems to be the season when strange things happen – or controversial occurrences – happen in connection with temples within the church system of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons). The chart at the end of this article highlights “15 occultic and controversial facts you may want to know about Lds temples.” Thirteen of those 15 “Facts” relate to the Lds church history of its temples, and strangely the overwhelming “dates” associated with these occur in mid to late March and the months of April or May. Why? Perhaps it goes back to the original...

Young girls are fast becoming internet sensations not because of their vocal skills or dance moves, but because they resemble living dolls.
