Umm. Freepzone is getting scarier and scarier:
It's almost always horrifying, what you see over there. And yet, I can't help myself. LOL. As election day gets closer, I can't help but take a look at their
craziness every few days.




-----------------------------------------
TOPICS: US: California; US: Hawaii; US: Oregon; US: Washington
KEYWORDS: prayformccainpalin
Just as we did with President Bush prior to his debates in the most recent Presidential elections, we are calling all interested Freepers to sign up for a time to pray for Sarah Palin during her debate with Joe Biden. Another chain will be set up later to pray for McCain's next debate with Obama.
The way this will work is we would like to have someone praying during each half hour of the day on Wednesday. Times posted are EASTERN STANDARD TIME.

If you would like to take a 1/2 hour slot, sign up on this thread and I'll be gathering names and times during the day to make sure that each half hour is covered.

Duplicates are Okay so long as we get all slots filled.

Thank you for your prayers for this nation's future.

Blogger

ESPECIALLY NEED WEST COAST FREEPERS TO TAKE A TIME SLOT IN THE AM HOURS. NOTE, THESE HOURS ARE EASTERN TIME, SO IT WILL BE MUCH EARLIER FOR YOU. THANKS!

I’ll take 8 pm. I’ve been doing this for several months anyway.
I prayed for Sarah before she was chosen.

I didn’t know her name. but I prayed for McCain to choose a “firey conservative”.
And God blessed us with her! Praise His name!!!

Freeper responds to this: Will the media ask Obama if he can pass FBI background check, no drug use for 7 years?
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2094270/posts
The media was all over George Bush’s alleged past drug use during the 2000 election. All presidential appointees need to pass an FBI background check. One of the questions is have you used drugs in the past seven years. George Bush in 2000, volunteered the answer after heavy media pressure, will the media ask Obama the same question


To: MikeFrancesa.com

The guy couldn’t get a job at any real company.

No birth certificate.
No proof of citizenship.
No college transcripts.
No relevant work experience.
Admits to past drug use.

That’s a real winner ya got there, democrats.

The MSM/Drivebys can't seem to help Obama put away the election. Why not? Rather - its not the story is why he is leading but rather - why can't he put McCain away?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: goldstategop
Exactly! You would think Obama would be up by 10-12 points. And MCCAIN is the one who gained? After the collapse?

This election is in the bag for the GOP. All we need is McPalin on the attack and a huge turnout.

1. When/if Obama wins I fully expect several freepers will commit suicide
There will be several RIP threads for longtime members who have suddenly "passed away" in the few days after the election leading up to Jan 20.

And no, I'm not joking.

10. You make a good point which is why....
I've been advocating that we have a group of DU volunteers to monitor their website after the election and report any threats made to Obama to the Secret Service. There will be some that won't be able to help themselves and I would relish the opportunity to play a role in their prosecution.


First things first though we gotta win.

We can't account for every scenario, every agent
But they are "the authorities" and I will report any threat or perceived threat to my local field office if it comes to that. I came very close to dropping a dime on someone on the H44 site this weekened but they were careful about their wording so I wasn't sure it constituted a legitimate threat.

28. I loathe both thoughts. They need to wake the fuck up
but of course, I am more worried about the harm they would do to others, rather than themselves.

4. Too funny. It's been scientifically PROVEN that that sort of prayer is a waste of time.
So go for it, Freepers.

6. Wow. Not a good grip on reality in there
The whole "no birth certificate", etc. thing was long ago disproven. I suppose when one isn't intellectually curious enough to check into these things, they just believe anything that limbaugh, etc. tell them.

11. I troll them boards too
and I am convinced that most Freepers are proud of their own ignorance, and proud of their ability to make their own reality, as surreal as it may be.

A Freeper walks into a bar holding a steaming pile of turds. "Hey, look at what I almost stepped in!"

15. Don't worry about 'em. That'll keep 'em busy instead of doing productive things like gotv activities
I'm thrilled they think their candidates have a prayer of winning this election. This is exactly the mindset of people who let their children die instead of getting them medical care, believing prayer will cure them... What McLost and Pale-in need is not prayer. They need medical attention. Seriously.

17. Gotta love the guy that got not one, but four facts wrong in his post.
No birth certificate.

No true.



No proof of citizenship.

Not true, hey moron, any child of a United States Citizen is a citizen.


No college transcripts.

Definitely not true. He was editor of the Harvard Law Review.


No relevant work experience.

If working in a law firm, working as a community organizer, working 4 terms as a State Senator, 4 years as a United States Senator, and ran the most wildly successful campaign in history isn't "relevant".... lol


Admits to past drug use.

TRUE! He smoked the Green stuff 25 years ago. Tried some blow. Oh no! 25 years ago (By the way, GWB admitted to far worse).

http://aa.usno.navy.mil/faq/docs/daylight_time.php

I don't want them to get their prayer times overlapping and leaving gaps n' stuff.

...you're not on Daylight Savings, so it's the same as Pacific.

My fear is their heads might explode trying to cover this desert shift.

and then raise my hand after the election if Obama wins - and say "neener neener, I didn't pray for my half-hour, that's why you lost!"
