NewsMax must be excerpted

Just received a notice from NewsMax.com. They want us to post brief excerpts and links only from their site from now on.

Thanks

Jim

Wow. NewsWax — of all organizations — complaining about FReepers using “their” stuff. If they’re not a cut-and-paste organization, I don’t know who would be....

[RedRover]

LOL! I barely got there first!

[Jim Robinson]

Cartoons from the restricted sites should not be posted.

[jazusamo]

I always come in second. :-)

[RSmithOpt]

Thanks Jim Rob....everyone wants hits on their sites.

[Miss Didi]

Groovy, thanks. ;)

[Constitution Day]

Now I’m not sure who I insulted... ;)

For penance, I hereby sentence you to The Wearing of the Tinfoil Hat.

[JUMPIN JEHOSPOHAT]

I don’t want any comments about what I THOUGHT I heard you say.

:-)

Why do you people continue to bad-mouth the only conservative outlets that are available to us?

Do you remember what it was like before these sites were available?

What the hell is wrong with you people?

If you find something wrong with an article, say so. But trashing the only means we have for getting a conservative spin is nuts and self defeating.

You boobs! Knock it off!

Why do you people continue to bad-mouth the only conservative outlets that are available to us?

Oh, I don't know ... maybe because they're ghastly bad?

If "conservative" means "stupid" then I guess you're right. I generally don't equate the two terms. However, I'm willing to make exceptions on a case-by-case basis.

[RedRover]

Must be that East Coast/West Coast thing! ;)

Fine by me. Could result in some interesting Thread headlines....

• ... Expert: Autopsy Confirms .. White Killed Triathlete
  
• Bush Pu.. Congress
  
• Buffett.. Worse Than Feared
  
• NY Cardinal Hits Giuliani
  
• McCain Hits Obama
  
• ... Parents Who .. Died Charged

Actually it'll be an improvement :-)

'SERIES', this is why I don't post articles. I'm lucky I can remember where I put my pants from last night let alone what to excerpt.

Okay Jim. I rarely read NewsMax anyway...they look like they troll Free Republic and then do a re-write.

Not that I blame them: the smartest conservatives on the ‘net are here on FR, anyway.

[ml/nj]

They should have suggested we ignore it.

NewsMax would not even exist if it were not for freerepublic.com

[Jack Black]

I subscribed to their hard copy magazine and never got a single issue. They did send me the free hat though, indicating they had the right address. After calling about 3 or 4 times (they were polite on the phone) I just gave up and wrote them off. By then I’d kind of noticed they were pretty useless anyway.

[WackySam]

Are you some kind of nut?

[donna]

You read one column that you disagree with - state your opinion on that thread.

Ruining another’s reputation is a sin and in this case it damages the conservative cause.

Why don’t you do something to help.

[donna]

If that’s true - it’s a real good thing. Don’t knock it.

[donna]

See, now you want to do insults instead of talking about the issue. Step up!
