Free Republic

<p>How can citizens of a free country speak such hateful words directed at another human being? (you are talking about Chris Parry, right?- Mod) After reading the ignorant postings found on this site Daily KOS I feel sick to my stomach and ashamed to be an American.Get with Michelle Obama on that.</p>

Chris Parry of the Vancouver Sun recently wrote an article about a bunch of nasty comments posted about Obama’s daughter Malia on Free Republic: “A typical street whore.” “A bunch of ghetto thugs.” “Ghetto street trash.” “Wonder when she will get her first abortion. “Could you imagine what world leaders must be thinking seeing this kind of street trash and that we paid for this kind of street ghetto trash to go over there?” wrote one commenter. blah, blah, blah snipped Those comments are pretty stupid. As much as I dislike Obama and his policies and his lack of honest...

Yoon wants term limit for office of the mayorby Brandon SimesManaging EditorMonday Jul 13, 2009 At-Large City Councilor and mayoral challenger Sam Yoon says he’ll serve no more than two terms if elected mayor and supports implementing term limits for the office of the mayor. Mayor Thomas Menino, one of Yoon’s three mayoral rivals-the others are South Ender Kevin McCrea and fellow At-Large Councilor Michael Flaherty, will end his current term as the longest-running mayor the city has ever seen, regardless of the outcome of this fall’s election. "If eight years is long enough for the President of the United States,...

<p>I'm scheduled to be on MSNBC this afternoon to talk about the controversy over the pulled Free Republic thread about Malia Obama.</p> <p>The segment should air live around 3:30 p.m. EDT barring any breaking news, etc.</p> <p>David Shuster and Tamran Hall will be co-hosting the segment.</p>

From This Day Forth To Be "Parry'd" Will Mean.... "Posting inflamatory or slanderous comments on a blog under an a false identity or handle in order to then have someone point out the blog is full of posters who are racist or horrible people." To be "Parry'd" or as if to have Chris Parry posting horrible and vile posts and then to write an article about those posts you yourself posted under a false identiy. Jim Robinson and Freerepublic are often "Parry'd" by Daily Kosters who then use these posts to righteous proclaim Freerepublic is full of racists.

Well, should've seen this coming: conservative blog Free Republic fired hate speech off at Malia Obama after this photo of her appeared, letting their commenters go to town. But the journalist who reported this as news isn't innocent, either. Chris Parry of The Vancouver Sun highlighted some of the comments on the mainstream, hard right-wing blog/news aggregator Free Republic. Among them, a picture of Michelle talking to Malia Obama with the caption: "To entertain her daughter, Michelle Obama loves to make monkey sounds." Classy. These mouthbreathing, borderline morons then kept piled on: "A typical street whore." "A bunch of ghetto...

<p>Freepers, get the word out loud and wide. The Vancouver Sun "journalist" Chris Parry that defamed Jim Robinson and FreeRepublic is none other than radical left blogger "Hollywoodoz" at the Daily Kos. In addition to writting for the Vancouver Sun, Chris is a frustrated and failed internet entrepreneur, having launched many websites and blogs, all of which have virtually no traffic, following, or success. Chris also writes movie reviews, though these are pretty lame.</p>

need 15 more minutes folks. Hold on, its coming.

The Daily Kos is scoring a lot of political points against Free Republic with the race and children cards. It was not our finest hour. But just how saintly and pure of thought are the Kossacks? Here’s the original Kos diary from Thursday that got the ball rolling against FR.The Kos diarist who posted the piece, Halfrican, closed his report on the FR thread with this wish for Freepers and their children:I hope all these Freepers have children that grow up to either marry black people or f*** them in high school. (asterisks added.)But we're the racists, right? I wonder...

As most of you know, for years John Aravosis and Americablog have been one of the most readable and provocative of the progressive blog sites. Idiocyncratic for sure (which is a good thing), not always certain of its place in the world, it has been a second home for me (after Dailykos). But I have been banned from posting comments. Why? Because I took exception to the use of Malcolm X's "House Negro" comment in reference to those gay leaders who are going to a White House reception next week. I am gay myself, totally committed to our getting our...

It wasn't quite Dick Cheney vs. Barack Obama, but another little debate broke out yesterday that raised a few eyebrows in some political circles. Of course, the debate was conducted entirely on Twitter, so it wasn't as wordy as the back-to-back speeches on torture by Obama and Cheney a few weeks ago. And the players were Meghan McCain -- the McCain campaign blogger-turned-would-be-GOP-modernizer -- and Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas, so it didn't get the advance hype those speeches did. Cheney actually played a minor role in how the whole thing started. The former vice president, who has a gay...

BECAUSE OF THIS POST ON FREEREPUBLIC, the leftist fascists got their panties in a wad. As all of you know, or should know, it is not our side that advocates violence (except against people like Saddam Hussein, his sons, the Iranian mullahs, and the rest of the Islamofascists who want us all dead). Apparently, the rats who live underground think the post was worthy of a report to the FBI. Someone had to do it, so I reported myself to the FBI field agent in Los Angeles. The agent has my phone number and name and took the time...

Leftists falling all over themselves denying the obvious: Islamic extremism kills. Black Muslim converts kill. Pacifism kills. Antiwar leftists kill. Leftist extremism kills. Left-wing haters kill. Liberal fascism kills. Leftist ideology zealots kill. Leftist terrorism kills. Left-wing violence kills. Socialism kills. Marxism kills!

I am embarrassed to be pro-life todayCannot be posted by FR rules.

FOX News' Bill O'Reilly has been attacking the liberal blog Daily Kos, and liberal blogs in general, over some extreme comments left by some of our visitors. It's interesting therefore that O'Reilly's own Web site contains some of the most hideous hate you've ever seen. Over the next few hours, we'll be documenting some of that hate. And you'll be interested to know that while O'Reilly holds others responsible for the words strangers leave on their Web sites, on O'Reilly's Web site, he's not responsible at all for the hate and threats his readers leave behind. And I quote O'Reilly's...

At Daily Kos, there is a blog today on how to repeal Prop 8 in the future. LINK BELOW. Keep black and Hispanic turnout low, and counter Mormon Money... The title of the blog is "To Repeal Prop 8, Keep Black and Hispanic Turnout Low, And Counter Mormon Money." Does this sound to you like libs/Dems cherish black and hispanic votes? Does this sound to you like libs/Dems are against suppressing the minority vote? Don't libs/Dems want every vote to count? Could it be that libs/Dems only care about advancing liberalism and socialism and really don't care what they have...

For those highly mistaken people who think the liberals are the ones who bring gentleness and compassion and reasonableness to the political debate, we always have the rebuttal. It’s called the Daily Kos. This Thursday "diary" recently made it to the top of the Kosmonauts’ recommended list, despite the fact that the writer needs his keyboard washed out with soap: F*** you Dick Cheney! F*** your pompous condecension. F*** your straw men! F*** your mischaracterizations! F*** your sniveling attempts to keep you and your buddies asses out of federal (somewhat offensive movie quote removed, happy now?) prison! F*** your presumption...

Most people on Daily Kos are (painfully) aware of Free Republic, the bottomless digital repository of bigotry, authoritarianism and hatred for most other Americans, all wrapped in 90's-era HTML. Usually, sane people who stop by there to check it out, find something utterly appalling within a few minutes of browsing, and close the page, never to return. Thus, there isn't a lot of detailed knowledge of Free Republic on Daily Kos. One important feature of the site is that it is community-supported through donation drives called "Freepathons." In 2008, Jim Robinson, the site founder, seems to have decided to purge...
