PLEASE DONATE TODAY
You know that I speak my mind. What you don't know is that I have received well over a dozen messages in the past two years from freepers who said that they were afraid to post similar opinions for fear of being zotted.
That's the fact of it...many long-time freepers do not feel "free" to discuss. I believe that the pendulum will swing back but in the mean-time FR will lose good people.

If FR survives the next four years of Obama, I will be pleasantly surprised.
Bingo!!!
I remember when the only people zotted were disruptors and the occasional stromfront member who snuck in through the back door to send everyone racist private messages. Fer cryin' out loud, we had Murraymom posting here! She was as unashamedly liberal as anyone over at Kos! We were truly a "Free Republic."
These days you're free to agree with the harpy brigade and you're walking on thin ice if you don't.
I agree. My ancestors go back to Revolutionary war. My family’s blood is on this land. I have drifted away from here because I don’t think I deserve to be called names and ridiculed just because I am going to vote for Romney over a Muslim Brotherhood loving commie phony president.

Hey, Buddy.
I stopped donating when I was called a “HATER” for pointing out that Palin endorsed a life-long RAT in WV 3 in 2010. (He had put an [R] after his name a few months before) The number of outspoken, shrill FReeloaders on this site had something to do with it also.
There's a vast difference between opinion and 'promoting' that which opposes what the owner has made very clear this site is about.
you are 100% correct.
I love this site and agree with the majority 95% of the time, but I keep it to myself when i don’t agree.
Some of the folks here can be vicious!!

Strange, you and I both signed up on September 15, 2001. Here a decade later you and I are left sharing the same feeling. Opinion is not welcome here anymore. I've received probably 50 personal emails because people were afraid of posting FReepmails, that's how frightened they were.
After seeing so many of their friends who were here from the start went through Clinton, Bush/Gore, 9/11, Gary Condit, Dan Rather, Kerry/Bush to this...
When I started seeing people actively shill for Obama after Tuesday, I warned that 95% of loyal donating FReepers would leave. I was only trashed by those same people trying to get me banned. Dirtbag the most hateful person towards Sarah Palin is allowed to roam free threatening everyone he comes across but folks who have been loyal to this website and our mission are shown the door, simply outrageous.
The sad fact as many of the folks at the top know David Axelrod has had moles here for years waiting for 2012 to shill for Barack Obama and like Grima Wormtongue in Lord of the Rings, whisper in the King's ear about anyone saying that they will vote AGAINST Obama!!! Oh and outrageous bigots are roaming free as well, I'm pretty sure Colofornian is responsible for atleast 500 - 1000 FReepers leaving as they don't like to be associated with bigots.
Your post makes me wish FR had a “like” button. Telling the truth there, FRiend.
I have neighbors in Virginia that can never vote for a Mormon, French surrender monkey, like Mitt Romney. His positions change every day. Now, he is for bailouts again!
