Happy Easter!

Looks like a nice celebration of Ishtar.
Take a good look at the background - that's where ALL religions stem from. A fitting winner.

Brilliant. :)
Is anyone working on the genetic roots of Republicanism. I understand it is related to Grincheart Syndrome.
[Deleted. Thread spamming-Sitemonitor]
way to go with the new ads....good decision to drive people away.
Peter G @ 7:
They have found that many suffer from Dumbasaboxarox syndrome, so I guess there could be a genetic component to the disorder.
so cheney goes to the middle east and says to the israelis that the us will never pressure israel to make any compromises that might endanger its security. He then goes to the palestinians and tells them that peace is going to require some "painful concessions". now, last i checked, the entire episode has been one painful concession for the palestinians. i don't think losing one's land and living in an open air prison can be described as a pleasant experience. so much for even handedness and justice.
I found these videos of Obama.

Hillary ‘Sins Bad,’ According to Sinbad
Tomorrow is the last day for registration to vote in the PA democratic primary.
If you live in PA or know someone who does and you support Senator Obama please reach out to get the paper work done by tomorrow.
We all have relatives who could participate but for various reasons do not. Bring one along.
The time is now. The cause is just. An opportunity to make a difference like this rarely comes along.

Typical french person.
weazl @ 8:
Haven't you done that?
Is it really necessary for C&L to post something that has been put in every fucking thread on the site?
When are you going to put together a blog of your own and stop demanding other people do what you want them too? If you have that much time and energy why don't you get your self down to the White House and demand we leave Iraq?
Peter G @ 7:
Close, but it is called the Gingrich syndrome.
I just got here and I'm afraid to watch any of the clips. From the photos I see, what a bunch of ghouls (Hume, Graham, etc.)-- except Obama and the Reverend; they're cool. Wish me luck. Happy Easter, if you observe. If not, happy Sunday.

The link directly above explains some of the origins of Easter / Ishtar. If you ever wondered why there are Easter bunnies and Easter eggs, and about some of the strange aspects of the Easter celebration, check it out.
Ron @ 16:
I do believe that is a variant of the primary disorder which manifests itself as utter disdain for anyone in the wrong tax bracket and a generalized mean spiritedness. The Gingrich syndrome, which is higher up the Republican spectrum adds total hypocrisy and serial infidelity.

Ted would argue that this display is too "black"
These diaromas were fabulous. My favorite was the third place Nightmare in Pink. Very inventive!
Cassidy Jacobs @ 20:
As someone of Arab decent myself, I'm willing to bet Arabs had nothing to do with the making of those videos. Looks more like veiled fear-mongering to me. Pretty low-class...
xoites Hussein defends Constitution @ 15:
Greetings Ron and Xoites. What Xoites said. He beat me to it.
Cassidy Jacobs @ 12:
Site Monitor,
You might want to check out these video (which aren't even videos, but still pictures of Obama w/ a soundtrack of Islamic prayers).
Looks like something that needs to be deleted.
Peter G @ 19:
Also, the anal cavity and the mouth reverse positions.
Cassidy Jacobs @ 20:
TROLL ALERT! Yet another racist troll.
Cassidy Jacobs @ 20:
Nice try, ya racist f*ck. The spam is flying high today. I would have the thought the resurrection of Jesus would be distracting the repug swine.
StirFry @ 28:
Indeed. These Republic asshats need to ask themselves, "Who would Jesus denigrate?" Although they'll have to look up "denigrate".
albatross @ 11:
What else did you expect from Darth Cheney?
My favorites are #8, Peepator Craig's Wide Stance and # 17, Plumbing Peep.
Ron @ 26:
Unfortunately the only currently known cure is the cerebral infusion of 9 mm cupro-plumbum tablets although this therapy is discouraged due to its extensive side effects.
Arrow @ 23:
Exactly. It seems who ever did those videos could easily become McCain's advisor. For one, not all Arabs are Muslims. That's the first mistake that person made. Arab Americans include both Christians and Muslims. Who ever made that video is clueless and is banking on the racists out there to buy into his propaganda. Cheap at best. Besides, Arab Muslims don't identify themselves as Muslims first and Arabs second. So why the soundtrack?
xoites Hussein defends Constitution @ 15:
woodguy @ 25:
The videos are a blatant attempt at fear mongering. The soundtrack is so cheesy. It's as if whoever made the videos is only familiar with stereotypical Muslim symbols. It's akin to slapping the Hava Nagilla song on every video that talks about Judaism.
Since there are apparently more than one who can't think themselves out of a bag:
I do have my own site. Click on the name and you’ll get there. ;-)
And maybe if C and L posted the vid, then people wouldn’t feel the need to self help.
And maybe if your wits were a little sharper, you’d realize that there is a big difference for a video to be featured on the site, rather than hotlinked in comments.
But by the tone and content of your post, you didn’t seem too smart anyway.
No worries.
Hope this explanation clears things up for you. :-)

Weazl@34 I don't think I've seen a more apt nick. Why not head back downtown to the right wing blogs. You can be a hero there 24/7 with your toxic propaganda.The market here is pretty much saturated with this crap.
I didn't create that site. I found it.
Cassidy Jacobs @ 40:
You didn't create YouTube? You found it?
Well, thanks. I found where my local KKK chapter meets and I can assure you I didn't create it.
In other news.....China is outraged that the world is giving them a hard time about Tibet. The Chinese Prime Minister was quoted to have said "All we want to do is kill us a few hundred Tibetans. Can't you people leave us alone and let us do our job quietly?"

[snark off]
Peter G @ 39:
PeterG,
Did ya look at Weazle's site at all.
Weazle is more on your side than ever, but because of some innate urge to bash people, you're on it! 'Cept maybe bashing the wrong side, dude.
Weazle, the best you can hope for is to either :
1) SPAM until banished
2) Hot link information and leave it alone
3) Create your own blog and whore yourself out on other blogs.
Other than that, (s)Hillary is a complete LIAR!
McDuff @ 41:
I think what we need to hear from Cassidy Jacobs is why s/he thinks these videos contribute anything, and if so, exactly what?
.
All I'm saying, is the chocolate bunny is better for my peeps than the marshmallow chick or the hard-boiled egg. IMO
Sorry, but I am not right wing. Far from it. And your mindless defense against raising awareness of Hillary's lies suggests that maybe you should go play with the McCain lovers, Rush lovers and other idiots supporting Hillary's sinking ship.
Toxic propaganda? Justapoxing two clips of Hillary?
Only in moronland.
Hi!
Peter G @ 39:
Sorry, moron. Hotlinking ONCE to a youtube site is hardly spam. Posting my website through my name is simply following directions, you simple minded, babbering idiot.
And, as you yourself even mentioned, I have my own blog, so your third piece of advice is both repetitive and worthy of the aforementioned descriptions that I have given you.
Sorry.
Max-Hussein-1 @ 44:

By the way, since we obviously have run into the Hillary myrmidons maybe you can help me out. Who is Peter Paul? And what is Huma Abedin's relationship to Hillary?
What did Hillary know about Mena?
You help would be appreciated. Might demonstrate that you know your ass from your elbow.
Deep Thought
The internets have been with us for quite awhile now, and still there are people who think that the generous use of capital letters is an effective debating tactic.

Max@44 Yes I did visit his site. If you've seen my posts you will note that I admire both of the Democratic candidates. Virtually everyone who posts on this site is already committed to one candidate or another. Some, not the majority thank goodness, find it necessary to constantly spew the same third party propaganda as if it will somehow persuade anyone to change their views. It has the contrary effect and lowers the level of discourse to asinine.
Such people would be better served by pointing out their candidates strengths and poking holes in the real opponent, John McCain
Max-Hussein-1 @ 44:
It creates a dialogue about it.
stop yelling @ 50:
ROTFLMAO!
Well, English language has been around even longer. And there are still some people who can't even differentiate an argument from an instruction.
stop yelling @ 50:
weazl @ 54:
Oh it's you that's giving the orders now. My mistake.
Cassidy@52: Keep this dialogue in freerepubic where it's savored the most.
Pretty low level of discourse when people suggest that posting a video that completely controverts one candidate's credibility is "propaganda." You people are pretty Orwellian in your assertions, unable to back up these ad hominem's and using the braying of like mindeds to give a feeling of security.
If one wanted to talked about the weaknesses of a candidate then one would have addressed my charges: Who is Peter Paul? What is the relationship of Hillary to Huma Abedin? And what did Hillary know about Mena?
None of you have attempted to answer the questions. You'd rather engage in circle jerk of asides regarding my website (which is linked through my name), and create this mythology of actually sticking to the issues.
Get real.
Peter G @ 51:
I assume Weazl that your current ranting is somehow aimed at drawing traffic to your rather inane site. You got one visit from me and that will forever be sufficient. I note that you claim to be a Yalie and if we've learned anything in last few years it's never to hire anyone who attended that institution who didn't attend on a full academic scholarship. The legacies are killing us. Furthermore you claim a doctorate in Law. I'm sure you've read your Reader's Digest "The Law and You" but you're strident ranting and ready recourse to insult leads me to believe that you won't be arguing before SCOTUS any time soon. I don't believe a word of your biography. Leave to appeal denied.
Easy does it Weazel.
How do you know someone is not working the post or copy for later.
How do you know if someone is not researching and digging a little deeper before posting.
How do you know wether or not the blogger thinks it is a fair shot at Senator Clinton or not.
You got passion, I can see it in your work but you gotta let these folks do their work.
This blog is not a one man operation or an island.

Are Arab Americans to be denied the rights of other Americans?
What's the problem if Arab Americans feel Barack Obama might be better president. I agree with them.
Isn't it, one American, one vote. Is anyone surprised they don't want a Republican. Have you seen how you treat people that aren't lily-white-Xians?
.
I don’t believe in Arab Americans.
There’s a brownish man who works at my local 7-11 but i think he’s a Mexican.

Religion @ 4:
I'm reading "The Pagan Christ" by Tom Harpur. So far a great book, and this is what he's saying about much of Christianity comes from Egyptian Mysticism...how appropriate :)
weazl @ 36:
You insist people do what you want and insult them if they disagree. Granted i noticed you had a web site only after i posted, then again i did not see anything but the umpteenth demand that C&L do your bidding. I suggest in the future you might get more results with an email.
Re Weazl: Just "visited" your blog. Holy crap, is that what a "Yale education" gets one??? And a law degree from Columbia?? Either there were some might low standards back then, or you are lying through your teeth.
Dreck, just dreck!!
Two very interesting clips. Both about the great Afghanistan mess.
Life and Death In Kandahar
And
Between Hope And Fear
Quite eye opening. If you pay close attention to the show itself (if you can get it) Afghans describe the rampant corruption in government that never existed when the Taliban ruled. Sad.
Oh, were these fun!
I LOLed at the Larry Craig, and smiled at Sesame Street and SpongeBob SquarePants.
This may have been mentioned already -
At 10:00 EDT, CNN will play the Jeremiah Wright sermons in their entirety for context.
At least that's what they're saying anyway.
