Anyone checking Republican blogs?
I believe one of the best ways to be armed is to know your enemy, and so I have attempted to enter a number of Republican blogs to see what they're spewing.

But I kid you not, my computer doesn't like Republican blogs--completely freezes up and I have to close my browser and then delete the cookies and internet files.

Never have a problem with any left-leaning blog I've visited. And I can only hope Repugs are having the same difficulties. :)

6. blog list from Yahoo
Here's the list I'm working from, from Yahoo: http://rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/elec/elec_index/bloglink/*http://news.yahoo.com/electionsblog/

The blogs aren't broken out by RW vs. LW, but you can usually guess from the names who's who.

(Except "DemWatch," which is LW--crappy name, for sure, as if we're policing ourselves.)

3. I got a nasty spyware infection from Free Republic
I'm not going back there until I get my hands on some heavy duty spyware armor. The freeware just doesn't cut it with that crap.

4. I've never had spyware trouble at the Freeptard site...
Maybe it's because I use Spyware Blaster and keep it updated. :-)

5. I don't know how anyone can stand to go to that site for more than
one reason. It's got to be one of the worst designed sites I've ever been to! Plus, they're all insane. . . .

Vote Early, Kerry's Idea
10/18/04 | Sadie
Posted on 10/18/2004 4:51:41 AM PDT by Sadie789
Today CNN mentioned that Kerry is encouraging people to vote early to avoid the crowds in November. This is more likely because Kerry doesn't want them to view "Stolen Honor" or Anti-Moore movie "Weapon of Mass Destruction". Kerry and Edwards want to cheat people out of viewing both sides before making a decision to vote with a clear conscious.
"There's no reason to wait until November the 2nd," vice-presidential candidate John Edwards said in Florida the state that settled the last race for the White House.

John Kerry - Once a Liar always a Liar
Posted on 10/18/2004 4:39:58 AM PDT by AMHN
John Kerry lied about the troops in Vietnam. Lied about atrocities they committed. Lied about being in Cambodia (seered in his memory; which by the way was no small things to those that remember as the international community turned against the US for this illegal and calculated implication). It's the only war we have ever lost (and not by a 4N enemy, but by a domestic one). John Kerry is showing his true character and leadership again in this election by elevating himself to the mother of all liars. He is lying about the the global test for US action, the draft, social security, health care, taxes, etc... Now he wants to snuggle in bed with "oil for food" blood money receipients and crawl back to the UN and beg forgiveness for the US not trusting them and putting our security in their hands. This man will stop at nothing to destroy this country...****AGAIN****. It is the philosophy of the far left that all the evils of the world start with the US. They think we deserved 9/11. We can do no right. John Kerry will stop at nothing to drive this point home if elected President. Hail to Benedict Arnold.... We do have to give John Kerry one point for honesty however, he will make sure that the holocaust of the Democrats, Abortion (not the other one...slavery), to date nearly 50 million dead, will live on by loading the Supreme Court Bench. How much blood can one man, and one party, live with...(lets not forget also the 3 million that died in the killing fields as a result of our pulling out of Vietnam). If elected this man will embody the worst holocaust in human history being perp'd by the far left party. Thought Hitler was bad, Stalin, Saddam...just wait...John Kerry will have them all beat!

11. Heh
Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 07:31 AM by evilqueen
WTF is that all about? They don't believe we had troops in Cambodia and Laos... or what? I've read numerous accounts of U.S. troops in places they weren't supposed to be, that's no surprise to me... but then, I do read things, I guess they don't.

One of the things they freak out about is that Kerry -one time- said he spent xmas in Cambodia, but later realized he had the date wrong, it was really in January.

Oh, and in response to the freak freeper... when you're a world power as the U.S. is, everything you do affects everyone else in the world. If you do evil, it multiples. Our role in the world is to be the leader of humanitarian causes, not war atrocities, but some people never learn.

8. Got a call form the NRCC
the other day asking me to donate five hundred bucks and in return my small business would be added to a list of names in a full page wall street journal addy saying I support Dick-head.
Fun time right?? I managed to keep the bitch on the phone for TWO HOURS!!
I kept telling her I had no intention what so ever of voting for shit-face but I still wanted to know what my five hun would get me. I got all sorts of bullshit promises, even an invite to a dinner with the pres. that she said would be held in spring. Funny how silent she was when I said I'd love to meet president Kerry!
I could hear the phone ringing off the hook in the backround and every time she tryed to get off the phone (they wont hang up till you say goodbye) I told her how I really wanted to give her money. They're so fucking hard up for cash that even though I was saying over and over again how I was voting for Kerry she stayed right there with me.

AFTER I got off the phone my modem de-programmed itself and my computer locked up!
I brought my modem to my service provider and they said they'd never seen anything like that before. After they replaced my fryed modem my computer went totally fucking nuts and then locked up for good!!!

CO-INCIDENCE???????????????????????????????????
I dont know but I'm not fucking with these kats again unless its from a pay phone. I've got plenty of change!
