Free Republic

I received the following email a few days ago and I have to admit that it upset me. It just seemed to me as though big brother had gone too far. Read More... Craig DeLuz Visit The Home of Uncommon Sense... www.craigdeluz.com

John Podhoretz asks the question I've been wondering about for some time: "How long before Democrats decide that our men and women in uniform are just extensions of the president and party they detest a bunch of warmongering, bloodthirsty and stupid imperialists?" Now you say, "oh that won't happen. We, as a nation, learned our lesson with Vietnam." OK, if you say so. But I still find it to be an intellectual challenge to hold the contradictory position of loving the warrior and hating the war. In my opinion, it would be tantamount to saying that you supported the Japanese...

How many times did Arcie Bunker tell Edith to stifle? A hundred? A thousand? The scenario was always the same: Archie would drag his sorry butt home after eight hours on the loading dock, sit down in his favorite chair, pick up his newspaper, and Edith would go yak-yak-yak.

Americans. We willingly accept a level of risk in one area that we find horrific in another. Take, for instance, the risk posed by alcohol or cigarettes. Fifty years ago, alcohol and cigarettes were fairly innocuous diversions. Hollywood showed the good guys smoking and drinking throughout the course of nearly every movie. A drunk behind the wheel was high comedy. On the other hand, the industry that embraced a drink and a smoke forbad any scene where a man and a woman shared a bed. Times change. Now, movie plot devices have flipped. Martinis and cigarettes are out. Casual sex...

Please read the entire message, this may be important information to you... Hello Freepers! My name is Jordan Gustin and I am new to FreeRepublic, but I am excited to be a member. Of all of the conservative forum/opinion sites I've visited, FreeRepublic has the most passionate and opinionated conservatives!

It is one of my life's goals to voice my opinion and beliefs to as many people who will listen... to become...

Stem-cell 911 By Robert Lanza and Wendy Goldman Rohm Worcester, MA, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- In an unprecedented move, the Royal Society -- Britain's National Academy of Science -- this week asked the United Nations to ignore President George W. Bush's call for a ban on all forms of human cloning, including stem-cell research. What hangs in the balance, on the cusp of the U.N. vote and the upcoming U.S. presidential election, is not only the plight of millions of patients, but also the future of one of the greatest medical advances in the 21st century. It is alarming that...

Well, there is quite a bit of news to report concerning the polls today as we head into the weekend and prepare for the second presidential debate tonight. The present polls will be about the last one to feature post-Debate #1 data (other than a few scraps that come in over the weekend). Over the weekend, all the firms will be gathering their data for the round of post-Debate #2 polls that will hit the airwaves starting Tuesday. If Bush acquits himself well tonight, which I think he will despite his last performance, the polls we've been seeing this week...

Hi there, we have recently started a new site for political debate. Right now it's members seem to be left wing pot smokers, and I was hoping some other people may be willing to come and help debate the other side of the argument (or else it will all get horribly boring and one-sided) Hope to see you all soon CharliesPad
