humblegunner,
I am posting in the Bloggers section and for the most part I include everything in the post. If others want to see a link I’ve posted, they can, at their OWN digression, choose to visit it or not. I trust people are smart enough to make that decision without you or anyone else complaining about it.
Furthermore, complaining about this seems to be in violation of the Posting Guidelines, which state:
“Don’t be a whiner - If you really, really find Free Republic not to your liking, let the webmaster know directly (webmaster@freerepublic.com), learn to live with it, or move along.”
I encourage you to follow that advise and if the webmaster decides I am not contributing to FR appropriately, let him address me directly.
Thanks and God Bless!
You caused folks to visit your blog to view a video.
The video isn’t yours, all you did was find it and embed it.
If your purpose was to get the video seen, it’s easy enough to post it here.

What magic!
But you seem to have an ulterior motive and that is trolling for blog hits.
If you think no one will notice this and call you on it, you are mistaken.
Further, I do so much appreciate your having finally showed up at Free Republic to educate
me about it after I have obviously been screwing up here for nine years.
You and miss poundcake may think you are cleverly disguising your pimping activities. That’s fine.
Keep thinking that.
And the words you used?
digression = discression
advise = advice
Cheers.
no caps ; )
You passed the test!
Almost. ;-)
I guess nobody is void of spelling mistakes.
Mr. humblegunner, why so serious?
I can be just as assumptive that when you whine and complain about anyone who doesn’t follow YOUR rules, you are jumping up and down like a little dog begging for attention.
Again, since you are so familiar with FR policies, including the one I mentioned, please follow that course of action.
Linking YouTube or any other site is not much difference. Either way you are linking a website. And just because its on YouTube does not mean that is the original source of the video. That is just the medium in which the video is presented.
Oh and thank you for the spelling corrections. Appreciated!
True, in some cases.
But I note that your little blog is monetized.
(That means it has advertisements for those of you in Rio Linda.)
You get PAID to redirect traffic from FR to your blog.
For this reason, you don't post the full content (or the "borrowed" video)
here, but instead cause folks to visit your blog to see it. Not so?
There is a term for this, you know.
Feel free to waste your time acting as the FR Post Police and I will continue to add content of value. According to other comments, it seems people like the content more than your complaining.
Best of luck to you, sir.
And I note that you fail to address the pimping accusation.
Carry on.
They might turn on Obama for not being far enough left, and the Press Korps is bitching about not being fawned over enough, but they’ll never give up on Obama.
