Free Republic

In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day". popinjay • \PAH-pin-jay\ • noun a strutting supercilious person Example sentence: Shopping was going fine until, in one of the boutiques, a popinjay of a sales clerk clearly snubbed us. Did you know? Popinjays and parrots are birds of a feather. "Popinjay," from the Middle French word "papegai," is the original name for a parrot in English. (The French word in turn came from the Arabic word for the bird, "babghā." "Parrot," which...

Anyone else just catch O'Reilly slur of Free Republic He quotes a post says that bama's nominee has diabetes and may not live as long as other recent judges on the SC He sure does like to bash FR!!

O'Reilly Factor Partial Transcript of the interview with Kristinn on 7-31-07 Transcript From the July 31 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor: "From the July 31 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor: O'REILLY: In the "Impact" segment tonight, as we've been reporting, the hate website Daily Kos has intimidated the Democratic presidential candidates with the exception of Senator Biden. So they are speaking at the Kos convention this coming weekend. There's no question that the most vile stuff imaginable is posted on this hate site and others like it. Now, some on the left justify the garbage by...

Re: Your on-air bashing of Free Republic So, you think that because one poster on FR comments that a diabetic supreme court nominee might not live to a ripe old age that all 350,000 of us are insensitive right-wing loons? Got news for you pal. The owner of Free Republic (namely me) is diabetic and I've already lost one leg due to this despicable disease and the other leg looks like it's ready to fall off any day now. My sister died of complications brought on by juvenile diabetes at the tender age 43. I've out-lived her in years, but...

He was talking about Obama's SCOTUS nomination and showed on the RV screen Free Republic's Logo and a quote from an un named poster that was saying something about Sotomayor something like... she won't last long she has diabetes... It re airs tonight.He called FR, VERY right wing and quoted only this making FR look hateful.

Upon rewinding the DVR, he quoted: "She HAS diabetes. And that might be a good thing, because she will likely not live as long as recent Justices are wont to do." Then a quote from HotAir as well. No link, this is from the live broadcast of the O'Reilly Factor.

<p>You've got a tough job up there in the clouds riding herd over the folks. Apparently you're having problems with the folks speaking out against the America hating left. But that's ok. Just keep your eyes closed, ears plugged and your jaws flapping. Eventually the folks will tune you out and we'll all be better off for it.</p>

<p>I received an e-mail today from the Fox News producer who booked me for the O'Reilly Factor last night. The links have been forwarded to Jim Robinson for review.</p> <p>Jim asked me to start a thread with the links so that Freepers, and everyone else, could see for themselves what the fuss is about.</p>

Wednesday, August 01, 2007 Posted By:Melanie MorganPermalink Why Bill O’Reilly’s Attack on FreeRepublic.com are Unfair Bill O’Reilly’s been making waves the past few weeks by focusing on the prevalance of ‘hateful’ content at the liberal website, Daily Kos.  O’Reilly is particularly disturbed to see Democratic presidential candidates agreeing to speak at the annual YearlyKos convention that will take place August 2nd through 5th. To show balance in his reporting, O’Reilly has unfortunately chosen to target the good people who visit the conservative website, www.FreeRepublic.com.  Last night O’Reilly had on his show a friend of mine, Kristinn Taylor, who is...

You Tube video of The O'Reilly Factor with Kristinn Taylor speaking for Free Republic. Bill O'Reilly makes claims about Freerepublic.com to spin us into a right wing hate site.

I'm not going to call Bill O'Reilly a liar... yet, but... on his TV show today, he read off a laundry list of ridiculous "hate" statements like "I hate blacks," "Hillary should be assassinated" and "homosexuals are dogs" that he said he personally found on Free Republic and claims that they were posted here today. I do not believe that. I doubt that he personally logged on to FR and I doubt he found any such thing posted here today. Who knows what we may have missed and is buried deep in our archives of millions of posts, but our...

Hi Bill, I've been a subscriber to Free Republic for about two years. I've been involved in a lot of Freeper discussion groups and have led several threads, including one where I identified myself as a black Freeper, with no blatantly racial kickback. What the Freeper spokesman should have mentioned is that the discussion threads are SELF-POLICING...when someone gets out of line, my experience has been that somewhere down the thread, THEY WILL BE CALLED ON IT. Free Republic is first and foremost, a meeting place for conservatives. The discussions run overwhelmingly along ideological lines, that at times have racial...

<p>I taped a segment on the O'Reilly Factor for airing tonight to defend Free Republic against charges that it is a hate site. The segment will air in the 'D block' around 8:35 p.m. EDT and rerun at 11 p.m. and 4 a.m. EDT.</p>

Anybody watching OReily now? OReily says he'll point out and take to task any republicans going to right wing hate sites. Freerepublic was specifically mentioned.

I recently tuned in to the Radio Factor to hear Bill O'Reilly saying that he was hated by Freerepublic and that it was an extreme right wing blog. First of all, Mr. O'Reilly is not hated. I have a lot of respect for the man, his honesty, integrity and point of view. What I don't like, as do many Freepers, is that when he is on target on some key issues, he is way off target on others. He needs to realize that we even disagree amongst ourselves quite often. I get my daily dose of talk radio, Rush, Dr....

CALL TO ACTION: OCTOBER 5th, (through 8th), 2006, WORLDWIDE PROTEST http://www.worldcantwait.net/ Military Corporate Fascism (Military Corporatism) and the fall of the USA from world dominance. Corporate Capitalism is run by SATAN through the use of WAR. Satan loves a bomb. Collateral damage is his term. Military Corporate Capitalism is Godless. The truth will set you free. It is easier to get a camel through the eye of a needle, than a rich man into heaven. (But not impossible.) Corporate Capitalism is run by SATAN through the use of WAR. This is a fundamentally correct statement and those that are fundamental...

Young viewers just don't watch The O'Reilly Factor like they used to. April marked Bill O'Reilly's lowest-rated month in the 25-54 demographic since August 2001. His 415,000 demo viewers in March was a new low, but O'Reilly managed to lose a few more in April, averaging 412,000 in the demo. Here's his post-Katrina track: Sept: 1,115 / Oct: 518 / Nov: 468 / Dec: 460 / Jan: 472 / Feb: 458 / Mar: 415 But this trend started long before the hurricane. for O'Reilly, April's numbers reflected his lowest demo rating in almost five years. Among total viewers, O'Reilly delivered...
