you may want to add rules on altering news headlines....it is what it is...And while on the topic can we get a list of sites that are "persona non grata"?....Call it the "No Posting List"?

Ditto Sub-Driver's request about the sites.

Did Emily Post have an ettiquette chapter written somewhere for a newbie? I seem to break a lot of rules....

But, my mother, a leftist, could talk alot on that :).

What about sites that do not want us posting quotes? I know there are some but I am not sure which ones they are.

Don't post from racist sites, white supremacy sites, white nationalist sites, or sites promoting violence, revolution, rebellion, secession, etc. Don't post from illegal drug pushing sites or pornography sites. Don't post from vanity sites, blogs, forums, or weirdo science, UFO or other such nonsense sites. Dont post from conspiracy sites. Don't post from TAX scammer sites. Don't post from Nazi, Anarchist, Comnmie, socialist or other left-wing sites. Don't post commercial messages or pleas for fundraising for outside causes. Don't spam our forum with links to your own website. No one likes spam.

In other words FreeRepublic.com is a news forum. A conservative news forum. We're not interested in what the scumbags on DU have to say or other such garbage. We're here to discuss the news (especially political news) and issues that are important to us from the conservative standpoint.

And, no I do not have a list of such sites. Commonsense ought to be guide enough.

If your post doesn't seem to post, reload the page before you hit post again, most likely it has posted.

A lesson I learned the hard way! I never hit post twice now, no matter what!!!!

Reload it in a new window! Because if it didn't post you could lose a great rant...

Excuse me...


What would you do Without Free Republic?


"What would you do Without FR?????

How would You Feel without FR??? Suppose one day you tried to log on and Free Republic wasn’t there? Where would you get your up to the minute news? How about the live threads as things are happening?

How would you know about the latest Demorat scams, anti-second amendment schemes and all the other liberal, anti-American ploys that are tried every single day?

Insight into world affairs, brilliant wit, sharp retorts, instant information gratification are a few of the things that make FR so vital.

How would you keep on top of things without FR?

How would you know who to contact to complain about the lying politicians, Media Bias, Hollyweirds latest mouth off, sponsors of these idiots, company policies that are unfair and all the other things we need to know to counteract the liberal mindset and the evil plans of liberals?

How would you be part of a Freep?

What would you do without FR????

Freedom isn’t free.

If you enjoy the site and find it a place of like minded Americans to sound off, to get together, to fight back, to have your voice heard and make a difference, PLEASE CONTRIBUTE NOW! Jim can’t do this alone.

The liberals are sure we won’t be able to keep FR up & running. Prove them wrong. Show them we are indeed united Freepers.
Whether it is $5.00, $50.00 or more, it all adds up. Please send a donation now to Free Republic."
