You know the answers are gonna be great when it starts off like this: HollyCabot 🐊 @HollyCabot · Follow My truth ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I assure you though, there is a little something here to offend EVERYONE. Are you ready? Don't say I didn't warn you! (It was so random that I had to include it) Feel free to post any ones they missed in the comments ✊

Amid a nationwide movement to remove statues, symbols, and words in the name of inclusion, Campus Reform rounded up recent examples of words that have been banned on college campuses.1. MSU eliminates the terms 'foreign' and 'alien'Michigan State University announced it would no longer use the terms “foreign” and “alien” in order to create a more inclusive environment. In October, Provost Teresa Woodruff addressed the Associated Students of MSU general assembly to announce the new “non-pejorative” language. Woodruff stated that moving forward, international students should be referred to as “non-domestic” or “international” to help “create a culture of not us...

“Sic semper tyrannis” – Thus always to tyrants, U.S. Navy 149th Fighter Squadron “De oppresso liber” – To liberate the oppressed, U.S. Army Green Berets “Legibus armisque devoti” – Devoted to law and arms, U.S. Army Legal Services Agency “Haec protegimus” – This we guard, U.S. Army Military District of Washington “Hiemes oppugnamus et montes superamus” – We battle cold and conquer mountains, U.S. Army Northern Warfare Training Center “Nous resterons la” – We shall remain there, U.S. Army 3rd Infantry Division “Semper primus” – Always first, U.S. Army 1st Infantry Regiment “Noli me tangere” – Don't tread on me,...

He's on-the-air, and on-fire. One of America's Top 6 Talk Radio Show Hosts, IMO: Chris Plante from WMAL in DC. His show is the "prep work" for many other shows. And, unlike the others, he pulls no punches, tells it like it is and doesn't take any BS from liberal, demoknKKKrat, leftist, commie, socialist, fascist and anarchist callers. He's the guy we'd all like to sit down with and have a dbl-cheeseburger and a cold one, while talking about the state of America, and the crazies who are pulling the strings, behind-the-scenes. Get a fresh refill of your favorite coffee,...

I'll start it off in no certain order: "Here's looking at you kid." Casablanca "Make my day". Dirty Harry "You had me at hello." Jerry Mcquire "You make me complete." Jerry Mcguire "We were on a break!" Friends "Norm!" Cheers "To the moon, Alice." The Honeymooners

I am sure that my fellow freepers can provide a list of Obama SOTU phrases that he will surely use tonight in his speech to the masses...

A local radio host who leans to the left but refuses to admit it had as part of his show today a request for callers to call in with republican talking points/soundbites that they always use. Cut & Run, Stay The Course, Maverick, Joe Six Pack, etc... were some of his examples. The left lives and breaths such things, and has been using the same ones for 30 years. Lets compile a list for our amusement.

I was trying to think of all the common phrases that are posted on virtually every thread. I am not sure if there is even a listing on here. Maybe they could be listed here. Here are some examples: We are doomed!!! It's Bush's Fault! It's Global Warming. Search is your friend. (I think this is one)

Hey folks, I'm still trying to understand why anyone is using the phrase, "War in Iraq????" We are trying TO WIN THE PEACE!!! When the War for Independence was over, Washington had to put down rebellion in Vermont. That didn't mean the war was still going on, it meant he was trying to win the peace. When our soldiers were killed in Germany, after WWII, it didn't mean that we were still at war with Germany, but trying to win the peace. Why are we at war in Iraq, when the war has been over for years, and officially, it...

Soon after the November elections leading Democrats agreed that the party was ailing and in dire need of a new direction, a new focus, new ideas to lead it forward. "It's critical we realize why the electorate voted the way it did," Representative Bob Menendez, of New Jersey, the chairman of the House Democratic Caucus, said of the party's devastating loss in the presidential election and its setbacks in both houses of Congress. In February, House Democratic lawmakers held a retreat in Virginia to hash out what to do next. Something miraculous happened. They recovered—or at least they're behaving that...

<p>Bennifer: The combination of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who teased stargazers all year with their "When will they do it?" and then "Will they or won't they do it?" wedding (they never did it). Fans almost mercilessly turned against Bennifer when their first movie together, "Gigli," bombed at the box office.</p>

I've started to make a list of the correct definitions to some commonly used phrases. I thought everyone here would like to join in. Then we could publish this list someplace. ________________ In the Army: 1. “Friendly Fire”. When soldiers mistakenly shoot at others on their own side. Friendly fire isn’t friendly at all. At the Office: 2. Requisition (Purchase Order) Approval Process. Any approval process is actually a disapproval process. The person who make out the requisition approved it, the rest are trying to find a reason to disapprove it. Government and Polity: 3. Tax Loophole (US). An exception...
