Free Republic

Charles Krauthammer, who thinks Russia is not a real threat and other so called experts like Colin Powell, explain why disaming from the enemy who is stronger than ever makes sense? No wonder Gorbachev is dying to have this passed. Wake up America!!

Earlier this week I wrote that the White House was both stupid and arrogant. This week President Bush spoke to the nation on the immigration problem and promptly proved that I was right. There can be no doubt that the overwhelming majority of Americans—Republican or Democrat—are vehemently opposed to giving illegal immigrants a pass and allowing them to become citizens as a reward for breaking the law by violating our borders. Ignoring what a majority of Americans demand is just plain arrogant. They also oppose the kind of guest-worker program the president backs because they know it would be simple...

CONSERVATIVES MUST CAN CANNON Let’s take Chris Cannon down. He’s a congressman from Utah. A Republican, sort of, five terms, the president’s “point man on immigration” in the House. Let’s flush him. Let’s show the Republican Party, the Congress and the president that we mean business. They’ve screwed with us. Now let’s screw with them. Here’s the background. Chris Cannon is the brother of the Utah state Republican chairman. They’re a millionaire family. And for 10 years Chris Cannon has represented the Third District of Utah. It is one of the most conservative areas in the United States. It is...

Sometimes in our disappointment of this...

This week, the behavior of many people on the left has been not just boorish, but despicable and beneath contempt. Even though I'm very familiar with the "everything is politics" mentality of the left, I was surprised at how so many liberals just couldn't contain their hatred until the body was in the ground. And I'm not talking so much about the left's petty complaints that the coverage of Reagan's death was "excessive" (although it was particularly crass & crude of Wonkette to describe it as "Gipperporn"), the neverending stream of attacks on Reagan & his policies, the Gipper being...

Islamic militants set up Web site to celebrate Reagan's death Associated Press Jun. 7, 2004 07:10 AM CAIRO, Egypt - While former President Ronald Reagan was remembered fondly across Europe and in much of the rest of the world, Arab nations recalled the Reagan days as a dark period. Islamic militants set up a Web page for visitors to celebrate the death. The Reagan years marked the beginning of what Lebanon's culture minister, Ghazi Aridi, called a "bad era" of American Mideast policy that he said continues to this day. Political analyst and former Syrian ambassador to the United Nations...

<p>On February 3, by a vote of 394 to 0, the House overwhelmingly approved a resolution (H.J. Res. 84) congratulating Ronald Reagan on his 93rd birthday.</p> <p>Not surprisingly, a group of five angry liberal congressmen refused to pay Reagan even this small courtesy and instead voted "present." A handful of Democrat congressmen did the same last year.</p>
