VANITY: The "Truth" about JimRob and Free Republic according to BADJOE
LibertyPost.org | 10/10/03 | BADJOE (Slightly revised by JimRob)

Dear Free Republic Friends,

My old friend and brother-in-arms BADJOE has promised to warm the cockles of our hearts by publishing an expose (the truth about JimRob and Free Republic according to Joe) on the 18th of this month, which represents the one year anniversary of the date he last posted to FreeRepublic.com and started up with LibertyPost.org.

So, as I believe that only the truth can set you free, and based upon the stratergery of pre-emptive strike, I have a confession to make (before BADJOE makes it public):

I have poisoned the well.

By my sly innuendos behind the scenes.

By my intellectual ineptitude.

By not trusting those that brung me to the dance to bring me home.

By my biting every hand that fed me.

By my arrogance that causes me to think I did it all by myself.

By my stubborness not because of principle, but because of my lack of ability to see what is transpiring.

Evidenced by:

One would think that with half again as many Freepers. with a recovering economy, It would take a great deal less time to raise the necessary funds.

By this time in the June 2002 effort with a goal of $70,000 we had raised $73,000. Not because of who did the fundraising, but because the sense of purpose, of family, of comaraderie, was still present.

BADJOE rang the warning bell, but none heard.

Conclusion:

It is a sad day.

For what was once a great hope, a means of bringing together those who are willing to pay dearly in blood, sweat, and money to save this country, we all love, has been reduced to an asterisk.

So sayeth BADJOE as he promises to publish all this and much more on the 18th. He's been feverishly working on this "project" for one full year. In addition to the "truth about JimRob" BADJOE intends to further betray our trust placed in him by revealing the names of our moderators. And who knows what else?

I can hardly wait.

Is it the 18th yet? Tick, tock.

There are examples, especially on some of the ZOTTED threads.

Oh NO!!! I'm going to be revealed as Not A Moderator!

Believe me, being a moderator is VASTLY overrated as a giggle inducer or the key to your own personal power trip. Seriously, I used to be a moderator at the CNN web site (chat and message boards), and there were days I would have happily slit both my wrists with the lid from a rusty can of tuna held in my teeth.

Be thankful that you and I are Not A Moderator.

What evils have you brought upon us!

The score of a internet personality?

For shame.

Hey, have we heard this somewhere before?



It's the annual (semi-annual?) turning of the rotten leafs. Like freaking clock work. :)

How can you tell when it's just "knock it off" ?

That would be the "moderator-in-chief".

There are just too many Joe's on this forum. I think it's some sort of conspiracy to fool us...

I don't know if I can take any more. First I read about Rush, and now you. There's not much I can do for Rush, But look for my meager show of support on the next full day of business. ( My card number wasn't stolen last time, for those who may be concerned.)

Yeah, but now my threats to personally ban someone carry no weight. I'll actually have to resort to using logic and facts.

I'm ruined.

***It's "penance"! See now why you just wouldn't have worked out?***

One pope kisses a Koran another one misspells penance. It's what makes us so endearing!

From what I remember about BADJOE, he seemed like a good egg. There's something disturbing about a thread like this attracting so many negative posts about a good person.

I wonder if all the folks posting negative things about BADJOE here even know who he is.

Those don't work for me. High dudgeon and empty bluster are SO much more fun.

Jim (and I'm not sucking up here, though I need to), you DO have a way with words, with irony, and with sarcasm.

I have to laugh at these chuckers who are throwing spears in your direction.

They always miss.
