Did they say anything horrible about me personally?
Hit it was a {{pov-check|date=December 2013}} tag in the Edit section. That’ll make the libs mad.
....but yet, still they come......*smiles*
I’ll say it again, one person can’t do anything about a wiki page. You’d have to get 30 - 50 people, a wiki edit war with one person against the usual 30, the one guy just gets banned.
We have a wiki entry? I pretty much only look up bands, movies and TV shows.
Have you noticed what loud mouth, emotional, self serving, mal-developed, gas bags say about you and others that is beyond divorced from reality but, more about them being on their own island screaming insanity at a wall?
They are lunatics.
What they say is mostly projected anger about their short comings and a violation of their utopian ideals which cannot exist because of scientific laws.
FK em.
Merry Christmas!!! The Savior is born.
There is a LOT more material on FR than there is on DU. The author(s) of that entry note that DU is sort of conspiracy central for a lot of really nutty ideas, but they only mention a couple of the worst ones, and omit details around, for instance Karl Rove's "impending indictment" (remember "Fitzmas"?), or how they reacted to Dick Cheney accidentally shooting his buddy (talk about a long, nutty thread).
The insanity found on DU would fill the Indian Ocean, perhaps the Atlantic Ocean, but there's little note of it.
Wikipedia is basically leftist. No point trying to fix their entry on FR, because it will just go bad again.
Actually, I find Wiki very useful on most things, as long as there’s not a political issue. You can even look up facts about politicians—names of wives and children, for instance, or dates of service. But you can’t trust the politics, EVER.
Why would you even go there and read wht those left wing dirt bags write?
Actually, I was surprised at how much influence is attributed to FR!
A REAL hit piece would have denigrated FR’s influence.
I use wiki for general purpose information.
I would not expect a left leaning organization to have anything good to say about those that may disagree with their world view.
As long as you understand there is a bias in Wiki world, it can be a useful resource.

Wow, that’s quite a history, if accurate. Is any/some/none/not much/most of it true, or just leftist BS drivel? It’s well before my time here, so I have no real point of comparison.
I'm surprised the article left out some FR firsts where we've beaten the press on getting a story out.
The most memorable of these for me was the destruction of the Space Shuttle Columbia as it burned to a crisp while flying over California to Dallas. More here Reporting on the trouble starts here.
There should have been an entire section on Laz.
People from FR tried to edit the Wikipedia article several years ago, but the liberal editors there reverted it to the liberal view.
I found a huge error...everybody knows Jim Thompson runs Free Republic...
Never thought of looking there,
The section on Martin O Malley and Bob Ehrlich (Maryland) is interesting given what transpired here between them.
Why bother? ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSMBC, etc. all do hit pieces on FR. Wikipedia is known as a lib site.
