Free Republic

Democrats were quick to gloat over former President Trump’s arrest at the Fulton County, Ga., Jail on Thursday night and the release of his history-making mug shot. The only mug shot ever taken of a current or former president quickly ricocheted around the world — and around X, the platform previously known as Twitter. House Judiciary Democrats shared the mug shot with the caption, “No one is above the law.” Despite having been arraigned on three prior indictments, the mug shot taken of Trump on Thursday in Georgia was his first. Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) shared a video of him...

Long, dark night is over....Stop playing games...Go home to Florida...

News broke Monday afternoon that President Trump removed Anthony Scaramucci as White House Communications Director. Scaramucci was reportedly escorted from White House grounds after being removed as Communications Director by President Trump at the request of Chief of Staff Kelly.    Like clockwork, the hateful Never Trumpers are gloating over another shake-up in the Trump White House. Never Trumpers hate the President and they hate the American people who voted against the Deep State which has a grip on D.C. Bill Kristol, who has the amazing ability to be wrong about almost everything, took to his Twitter account to attack the Trump administration...

By Brian Stelter November 08, 2016 17:52PM EST Univision executives like to say that the road to the White House runs through the Hispanic community. "This argument will be tested today," Univision's top anchorman Jorge Ramos said Tuesday. Donald Trump defied the argument, declining Ramos's repeated entreaties for an interview, despite the fact that Univision (UVN) is the dominant TV network among Spanish speakers in the United States.(snip) "The only other candidate that didn't want to talk to us was Bob Dole in 1996, and lost," Ramos told CNNMoney. "Regardless of the results, I think Trump will be the last...

SAN DIEGO (MarketWatch) -- You will have to pardon Paul Kasriel, chief of economic research at Northern Trust in Chicago, if he hasn't been the life of the party over the past seven or eight years. The 60-year-old economist, tapped in 2006 as the top economic forecaster by Arizona State University's W.P. Carey School of Business, has spent a good deal of that time trying to warn anybody who would listen about such things as excessive household debt while taking a jab or two (or three) at then-Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. "Illusory" is how, in October 2004, Kasriel described...

<p>Twenty John Kerry supporters met for their first group therapy session in South Florida Thursday, screaming epithets at President Bush as they shared their emotions with licensed mental health counselors. The first of several free noontime therapy sessions at the American Health Association in Boca Raton was designed to treat what mental health counselors have dubbed Post Election Selection Trauma (PEST). “If I had a cardboard cutout of President Bush, and these people wanted to throw darts at it, I would let them do it,” Robert J. Gordon, AHA executive director, told the Boca News after the session. “It’s no joke. People with PEST were traumatized by the election. If you even mention religion, their faces turn blister-red as they shout at Bush.” Although the meeting was closed to the press, AHA therapists obtained permission from participants to provide an anonymous transcript to the Boca Raton News. “I’m scared,” said one man. “Democracy is at stake and nobody is rising to protest this president.” “I want to be a patriot, but it’s impossible to be a patriot in an immoral war,” said another participant, a woman. “Bush is breaking up marriages and dividing families by keeping our troops in Iraq.” Gordon said the participants also granted reluctant permission to open up next Thursday’s meeting to the general press. Reporters will be forbidden from taking photographs or using the real names of patients. “The media outlets, especially Rush Limbaugh and his ilk on talk radio, scare our patients to death,” said Gordon, facilitator for the meetings. “More than anything else, people with PEST tremble physically.” Gordon said the Kerry supporters in therapy are predominantly Jewish and older than 50. Most are registered independents and all live in Palm Beach County. “We mostly let them vent during the first session,” Gordon said. “By the third session, we’ll be doing some meditation exercises to aid some of their symptoms. We may use visualization and some techniques designed for bipolar disease and other mental disorders. That might help them adjust to reality.” According to AHA officials, symptoms of PEST are similar to post-traumatic stress disorder. They include nightmares, sleeplessness, hostility, listlessness, and emotional outbursts including threats to leave the country. “There’s an overall sense of emotional helplessness and abandonment,” said Sheila Cooperman, a licensed AHA psychotherapist from Delray Beach. “In psychology, we call it ‘learned helplessness.’ After you zap a caged dog twice, he stops moving because he knows there is no place to go. That’s what happened with these Kerry voters. They’ve been zapped so many times that they’re on the verge of giving up on politics.” Cooperman, also a practicing psychic, added, “One person today said he thinks the country is now run by fascists. Another felt personally threatened by the president’s love for big business. Many believe Bush is going to draft their grandchildren. The anxiety may not affect them every day, but it affects their energy level.” An additional 30 people are signed up for two other AHA election support groups, which will meet for the remainder of the year and possibly beyond. Gordon said his patients’ emotional problems typically started with the “hanging chad” debacle of 2000. “First, they need to realize they’re not going to overturn the 2004 election,” Gordon said. “They have to live with it. The problem is they have no faith because they think the religious right has hijacked the political system. We try to tell them there is still an election in 2008. You can’t just give up and be apathetic.” The AHA, using a holistic approach to health that has been mocked as new age voodoo by some national talk show hosts, has stressed to patients that their post-election emotions are normal and deserve to be taken seriously. “These people talk about the 2000 election being stolen,” Gordon said. “They talk about Theresa LePore and the Ohio recount. They feel it’s the ‘Right House,’ not the White House. They feel the world is not safe with George W. Bush as president. They spewed out a lot of anger. They are angry at the Democratic Party for being aimless and leaderless. They have a right to these feelings.” The Boca Raton News first reported on Nov. 9 that depressed Florida Kerry supporters were seeking trauma therapy in the wake of the Nov. 2 presidential election. One Boca psychologist alone, Douglas Schooler, eventually treated 20 Kerry voters with intense hypnotherapy — for a sliding fee. The trauma specialist, whose bills were covered by clients’ insurance companies, was later accused by some colleagues of unethically “cashing in” on the misery of Kerry voters. In interviews with the Boca News, Schooler said many of the Kerry supporters had visited him for severe mental problems prior to the election. Unlike Schooler, the AHA is a registered Florida non-profit and its therapists do not charge for sessions. Conservative talk show hosts Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh recently offered their own “free therapy,” irking the AHA counselors.</p>

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VV_CwHBwVM Enjoy this classic clip from the Rush Limbaugh show from Jan.1995 where the Democrats absolutely lose it in front of cameras just shortly after the '94 election landslide. Will we see a repeat performance tomorrow if they can't pull off the expected take over of the House and Senate? God...I hope so ;) VOTE!

A couple of days after the election, my husband and I were walking down the street when I saw a sign that made my jaw drop: "REPUBLICAN PARKING." "My God, they work fast," I thought. "They've already taken over the parking lots!" Then I did a double take. The sign actually read: "PUBLIC PARKING." Oh. As Emily Littella used to say, "Never mind." But I do think my subconscious got it right: It's a Republican country now. The rest of us just sulk in it. Or, at least, that's what most progressives are doing. But me, I have yet to...

Democrats are going through stages of Mourning. Kubler-Ross Sequence of Emotions. Here are the typical stages. They are not necessarily experienced in this order, and it is not unusual for people to vacillate between the various stages. Denial Oh, no! There must be some mistake! It's imppossible Kerry loss the election!" Anger "I am deeply offended. How could 52 million people be so dumb! @#$%^#^" Bargaining "If you promise .... then ....." Depression "All right! It is true! I am like that. I am a truly rotten person and that things are only going to get worse." Acceptance Realization that...

President Bush says winning elections is refreshing. And losing them? Bitter medicine, indeed. Every political concession speech is a tale of heartache. Over time, though, comes a "you win some; you lose some" equanimity that allows even the most disappointed to go on--to the next campaign, the next candidate, the next cause. But after their dismal showing this year, congressional Democrats face a difficult future. In a painful replay of 2002, they didn't just lose some; they lost almost everything. "I just want to die," confessed one Democratic congressional aide, "or stay drunk for a long time."It's no wonder....

YEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAA! At the time of writing — 1:45 A.M. Wednesday morning — George W. Bush needs just one Electoral College vote to get him over the top. I'm going to take this as a done deal, and start gloating. Now, gloating is of course bad — coarse, heartless, insensitive, and ill-mannered. Magnanimity in victory, that's the thing. Humility, grace, gentlemanly forbearance, there but for the grace of God... YEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAA! Sorry, sorry. I was saying... Yes, gloating. Definitely uncouth, undoubtedly bad manners. Still, the fact that the good Lord gave us the capacity for bad manners suggest to me that He...

April 25, 2005 — Donna Bijas of Middletown, N.J., hates SUV owners and the way their vehicles obstruct her view as she tries to back her Nissan Altima out of parking spaces: "I hope gas prices send them to the poor house," she said. In level-headed reflection, people on both sides of the SUV debate tend to agree soaring gas prices are nothing to cheer. But among some SUV haters, there's the road-rage factor: Perhaps prone to seething in traffic over what they see as an egomaniacal, menacing and gas-guzzling group, some see high gas prices as payback. "I laugh...

Their heads swimming in despair over the events since November 2nd, many Far Lefties have reached a fork in the road. Do they flee to Canada (or hopefully even further away) or do they stay and fight President Bush (Chimp, Shrub, or simply *, as they call him)? And if they stay, what does "fight" really mean? There are three things to remember while reading the montage of DU threads set forth below:1. They believe they're living in 1930's Germany.2. They have a breathtakingly arrogant view of their importance.3. Everyone else is stupid.After 35 years of activisim, here are my...

EDITORIAL BOARD Saturday, February 12, 2005 All in all, it's been a pretty good couple of sports seasons for New England teams. Boston wins the World Series, and the Patriots win another Super Bowl. New England pols, however, are about to go 1-1 when Vermont's governor becomes head of the Democratic National Committee this weekend. The loss was, of course, the one U.S. Sen. John Kerry, D-Massachusetts, racked up in the 2004 presidential race. Oh, well, you can't win 'em all. Republicans are rather gleeful about the prospect of Dean taking over the national Democratic apparatus. Some Democrats are as...

Fairly new to Free republic, so not sure if this is O.K., but since no one is able to shave my head and send me to Iraq, I'll ask a question. What has happened to two of the counterpoints to the left-wing sorry site (they are ALL sorry excuses for human beings), sorryeverybody? They were werenotsorry.com and werenotsorry.net. Is it due to little left-wing BITCHES with nothing better to do than hack them out of existance? Go to www.sorryeverybodymyass.com and post/re-post your photos and comments to tell the left wing whiners where to go.
