I notice you chose to refrain from commenting on the “hitting it” limitation...

Shoulda scrolled down - rats. My humble apologies...
Free Republic Lexicon joke. Ask Laz (actually, don’t ask Laz).
I look forward to reading the breaking FR news we can use.
Ba....da....bing!
All good things come to those who wait....unfortunately, many of them die in the interim!
Attaboy.
I exchange freepmail with people who are in the know / or had experience in significant issues facing this nation. I welcome the new forum. I hope we don’t have to hand out the Reynolds Wrap, but I look forward to the change. I would like to share my experiences past and present.
I foresee this as becoming the top-of-the-line must-read content here on FR. It will likely become the venue where FR is exposed via other media, lamestream and otherwise. So, I think it's necessary for this section to be the very best it can be.
To enforce the already high standards of FR, how about these items to serve as filtering mechanism?
The people who post graphically violent threads of the darkest evil (used to be Chet99, but the ones who continue know who they are) need their own category: Despicable Crimes. If they stray outside that, BANNED.
It’s awful checking latest posts looking for good news and finding those weirdos who post the unspeakable. I move that certain categories be blocked from viewing within ‘latest posts’. If I absolutely, positively need to have my heart broken at 4:30AM, I’ll go look at the atrocities section.
Anybody’s who has read your “History of FreeRepublic” post from nearly 10 years ago has always known you’re capable of first rate stuff.
Step up, Laz.... Leave the search for cheap laughs to second raters like me.
I believe the biggest part of this will be a cultural and attitude shift. For now, I would link to this article if someone questions FR Journalism articles. This is why we are taking this in small steps. Work on the articles and have a place for them, then grow the idea with some other things we may have in the works.
We should always be afforded the opportunity to hit it. Unless its Helen Thomas or Nancy Pelosi. That’s an arrestable offense.
This is doubleplusgood.
Eagerly looking forward to all the enhancements.
I am guessing, the idea of having an APP. came up as well.
In any case, I am praying/wishing for an always betterment of this great site - true guardian of this great nation.
Excellent.
I suggest a section on preventing voter fraud...
Because this.... is the big one! :)
The most positive idea posted to FR in the last year!
Excellent!
“5.No hitting it. “
So, this isn’t necessarily for ALL FReepers. Sorry Laz.
Sounds good to me if there won’t be too many flame wars involved. :)
Just sayin’.....
Good points.
I would go further. I would argue that NO ONE posts an article (News, Chat, whatever...) unless they are a donor.
