Free Republic

Good day Fellow Freepers. Hope everyone had a great weekend.

In 2015, Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas), chairman of the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology, requested the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to provide his committee with the data the agency had used to produce a controversial report on global warming. The report, written by Dr. Thomas R. Karl, director of NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information, and published online in the journal Science, was desperately needed by the Obama administration at that time. Why? Because President Obama was heading to the United Nations Climate Summit in Paris, where he and other world leaders intended to conclude a new global...

Reprieve Of Destruction: Global warming can’t just “pause” by Daniel Clark A funny thing happened on the way to global annihilation. The destruction of the earth by manmade carbon dioxide emissions has taken a “hiatus,” as the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change calls it, in spite of the fact that global CO2 emissions continue to rise. Depending on the source, “the pause” has gone on for the past 16 years or longer. Since last year’s IPCC report came out, defenders of the global warming faith have been groping for explanations for the pause, while also maintaining that it’s not...

OK, gang. We're seeing the railroading of Phil Robertson for the high crime of professing his faith in response to a direct question. 1. We need to overwhelm A&E with support for Phil. Here's the email I sent to feedback@aenetworks.com. . . To whom it may concern:Apparently, A&E Networks find it objectionable that Phil Robertson, when asked a direct question, gave a direct answer and referenced the teachings of his faith.For his honesty, which, frankly, is one of the charms of "Duck Dynasty", you've decided to put Phil on hiatus.Well, I've put A&E on hiatus. AND, I've also put buying...

Folks, I'm taking a hiatus, to celebrate my status, fer sure, as any sexagenarian should on or about that day. I'll be around, and if not, it's been fun!

Long Live The Republic! Long Live The Republic!

After nearly two weeks off the job, two cafeteria workers Downtown will be allowed this week to return to work. The two women, who together have worked in food service at the U.S. Courthouse and in the William S. Moorhead Federal Building for 44 years, were removed from their positions on July 5 when the Department of Homeland Security declared them "unsuitable," after conducting background checks on them

HUSAYBAH, Iraq (May 23, 2006) -- After three years without a police presence in this western Iraqi town of approximately 10,000, the community is beginning to see a fully-restored police force with the introduction of two new police stations. With a new force of fully-trained police officers, many of whom are seasoned veterans from the previous police force, Iraqis here hope the added security forces will curb insurgent activity in the area, according to tribal sheikhs. The Police Transition Team here, a team of Coalition service members responsible for training and mentoring Iraqi police officers, has worked in recent months...

'HIATUS' FOR HILLARY? by Mia T, 02.02.06 The clintons, as is their wont, are now taking this proxy scheme to even more outrageous extremes. The latest: an actual hillary clinton proxy presidency, populated on both sides of the camera by assorted rodham and clinton ex-staffers, sycophants and should-be felons, witness the latest hire. 'Commander-in-Chief,' a show that sets out to crown a 'queen,' instead exposes the kitschy simplemindedness of Hollywood fantasy and the special sway and shortsightedness of the pathologic ego.
