Free Republic

The race-baiting backfired at the Democrats and president Obama. America felt betrayed by the first post-racial President when he started to play the race card when talking about the Arizona law or about his racially incomplete coalition of power. So Democrats and President Obama decided to follow the example of Shirley Sherrod who overcame racism by turning to class warfare. The Bush tax-cuts entered the election debate front and center. Every progressive talking head told you how the Bush tax cuts are for the rich and how the Bush tax cuts got us into unsustainable deficits. Really? If Congress decides...

More quotes from Shirley Sherrod’s famous NAACP speech which you can watch in full here and make your own judgment. Do you want Shirley Sherrod in charge of the USDA outreach position that would deal with discrimination matters? The people with money, the elites decided, hey, we need to do something here to divide them [the white and black servants]so that’s where they made black people servants for life. That’s when they put laws in place forbidding them to marry each other. That’s when they created the racism that we know of today. They did it to keep us divided....

Scott Brown was the Man with the truck during his senatorial campaign. Today he assisted President Obama in the sweeping overhaul of the American financial system. The least we can say he broke his promise for no new taxes that will cripple the economy. The truth is the Gov now will call the shots on Wall Street. Do you think your money is safer now? The Rock Star of the tea party movement is a star no more. He is a poster boy again, but this time it is not for Cosmo, but for the Obama agenda. Remember how the...

The Greatest Economist of All shall remain unnamed for it is not recommended to say his name in vain. There are roughly ten principles that the Greatest Economist of All set in stone. May be if We the People start to follow them our economy may start to prosper. Don’t idolize other economists, no matter what their name is: Marx or Hayek, Soros or Bernanke. You shall not bow down to them or worship them for you may cause generations to come to suffer. Don’t use his name to pass laws that the Greatest Economist of All did not...

The famous Spanish economist Jesus Huerta de Soto understands socialism very well. He published a book about it where he defines the monster as follows: We consider that socialism is any system of institutional aggression on the free exercise of human action or entrepreneurship. De Soto considers any such system to be socialism except of course the one he is advocating… himself. In his plan for financial reform Jesus Huerta de Soto suggests 5 stages of legislative interventions, bank reforms and inflation shocks that lead to a world system where inflation/deflation and economic crisis will be impossible. For the socialists...

To my Conservative Friends: When my beautiful wife (I upgraded) and I got married 16 years ago, we talked a lot about our future children. We decided to raise them in a loving, catholic, conservative household. We would teach them values, manners and respect. Today they are 11 and 7 and I could not be more proud and blessed to have two such beautiful children inside and out. As everyone, we have made mistakes in our lives, but the best decision we ever made was deciding to have my wife stay at home to have the primary role of raising...

THE UNITED WAY/MY OPINION BY Steve Newton Well, after reading information on the Free Republic from some of my far more learned colleagues, I decided to look up information on the United Way myself. As everyone probably knows, I never express a political opinion outright. However, when I was young I worked at an establishment who REQUIRED you to sign up for the United Way BEFORE you were employed. So I have a vested interest in this discussion.

Propaganda comes in many forms. A particularly deceptive form is offered to us daily by news organizations. Politicians offer catchy words and phrases to a pliant media machine that packages them in neatly written editorials and feeds them to a voracious public. These words and phrases then become repeated mantras that are used daily to the point of wear, in the hope that the naïve masses will pick up on them and continue the spin. A few of the more memorable from the recent past: Disenfranchise – This sprang up during the election fiasco. Politicians claimed that, for numerous reasons,...
