  • My 26 Year Freeper Anniversary (Some Historic Freeper Posts w/comments from "89")

    01/25/2024 1:52:51 PM PST · by OneVike · 164 replies
    Too begin with, I wanted to share what was posted the day I joined, but Sadly, 99% of FreeRepublic's early history is lost due to FR losing a court case brought on by many leftists in the MSM over copyright violations due to Freepers posting full articles. Thus all the records of posts and comments prior to early September 2021 were scrubbed by court order. I do find it quit interesting that the order came down from the courts about a week before the attack on 9/11. Coincidence? Maybe, but looking back now I with all that has been...

    After more than 30 years in the United States Senate and nearly 20 years after his first try for his party’s Presidential nomination, Joseph Biden has no doubts about making another run for the White House. “I’m in,” the Delaware Democrat said Friday as he began a five-day visit to the first-in-the-nation primary state. “I know I’m supposed to hedge, but I’m in.” Biden dropped out of the 1988 nomination race amid allegations of plagiarism. He then suffered a cerebral aneurysm virtually on the eve of the New Hampshire primary. He recalls being given a 30 percent chance of surviving....

    Senate Web Site/Congressional Record ^ | 1/12/91 | Robert Byrd or some demented staffer of his
    ON THE WAR IN THE PERSIAN GULF January 12, 1991 (from the Congressional Record) MR. BYRD: Mr. President, this is my thirty-ninth year in Congress. This is my thirty-third year in the U.S. Senate. I have cast a total of 12,822 votes during these thirty-nine years in Congress. This vote today troubles me. I have cast difficult votes before: For example, in the case of the Panama Canal treaties and the Civil Rights Act of 1964. There are three or four votes that I regret having cast, one of them being my vote in opposition to the 1964 Civil...
