News to me.
Congratulations on becoming a media celebrity (again) !!
I dissagree with the president on this one but have yet to be purged. Should I prepare my opus?
I see lots of frepers opposed to amnesty here. Noone is getting 'purged' unless they break the rules some other way.
Bush is just trying to lock in the Hispanic voting block. It's all a show and the Republicans are set to defeat anything he proposes on Illegal (slave labor) Amnesty.
Relax.
Thanks to Jim for keeping the ignorant racist sites off of here.
Great site and you do a very good job at maintaining it. Thank you.

This is your place, keep it as clean as you wish!
Considering that I have expressed opposition to such Bushbot sacred cows as unrestricted free-trade, amnesty for illegal aliens, and offshoring, and am still here posting, I have no idea what this guy is talking about.
Well said, JR.
I'm vehemently against open borders and illegals, and I'm very much still here.
I like the policy. Keeps FR respectable.
Ping..........
LOL I thought that too.
I have been pretty vocal on some issues. But in the end it is JR's site, and we are guests. I am not to worried about no "free speech".

As an FYI, I was responding to someone who said, "This happens all the time. They will ban anybody that expresses ideas that don't fit with how they think a conservative should think."
I posted the following at the site where this article came from:
Are you talking about Free Republic or Democratic Underground?
Just as an FYI, I post at FR all the time, and am completely against open borders. It gets discussed frequently.
Whoever wrote this obviously has talked only to those with an axe to grind, rather than try and contact Jim Robinson and hear his side of the story.
I'm not sure if I should label this story ridiculous, stupid, or ridiculously stupid.
I saw the post earlier that was pulled ~ looked like sour grapes to me.
Rock on Jim! And thanks!
Is it me, or are the trolls upset about the election, being zotted, the Inauguration, Dan Rather's public embarrassment, and life in general so they''ll take their frustrations out on us?
Jim,
Thanks for opening a thread yourself on this thing. It deserves an open discussion.
I don't know if anyone has received these, but in the past 24 hours, I've received private emails telling me that our private replies are being screened and also about FRs "intolerance towards anyone voicing dissent against Bush's immigration policy."
I must admit I was dumbfounded as I've noticed lively discussions on this topic in the past. Now I know what is fact from fantasy.
Could you please reassure us on the allegation of our private replies being screened. As for me, I think 99% is innocent, so I can't imagine what anyone would be looking for.

PS--Oh and BTW, I thank you, too, for providing this opportunity for us to speak our minds.
You posted the guy's article. Living proof that you will allow no opposing opinions on FR.
Keep up the good work.
