Zot the troll called Tarpaulin

What, again?
Everyone knows tarp is merely a covering for that sensitive stuff which lies beneath.

Like hay or equipment you won't be using this month.

Sean's okay with me. We basically have the same goals politically and if he says something stupid, well, sometimes I do, too.

I'm here at the computer instead of watching him on FNC right now, so I'm not his biggest fan. But I'm not interested in eating our own.

I say you should re-word the poll to something like: Sean Hannity said that he left FR because of all the "childish, immature, personal attacks" and the propensity they have "to eat their own." Do you agree with him?

I would answer, "Yes, but I'll stick around anyway." I mean, come on, y'all KNOW that he's right to a great degree. There are some people on this forum that are mean-spirited, insensitive, bully-type jerks, that seriously appear to suffer from some type of neurosis. When I first joined (under a different monicker) in '99 and was new to forums of any kind, I couldn't believe how people here spoke to each other, and I'm not talking about tempers flaring in the heat of good debate; I'm talking about completely trivial, petty situations. It's like some people are insanely ANGRY at the world, and they just write anything they feel like just because we aren't face to face. More recently, I got on a thread about the so-called "assault weapons" ban, and since I know NOTHING---zero---about firearms, I asked some questions in order to learn. Several FReepers attacked me, said the questions I asked were stupid and I must be either an idiot or a troll, and basically told me to scram. After all these years, I knew not to be intimidated by a few jerks. A couple or three years ago, I liked to post on a Christian thread--- a debate between protestants and catholics. I quit after a couple of months because a few of the people (supposedly Christians--- I won't mention which SIDE of the debate they were on!) were just plain mean and hateful.

One of my best friends, a college professor, who would be an asset to FR (like so MANY others of you are), never posts although he is a member here. He doesn't like the personal attacks between posters, and that's the only reason he doesn't post. He just reads some of the articles.

Sometimes I just wish people who are supposed to be allies (we're all conservatives, right? We're on the same side) would just grow UP!

Anyway, this is why I can't really find much fault with Sean's accusation. I guess I've just learned to ignore a lot of what is said and gravitate to the really GOOD people I've met here.

Hannity is a blood-sucker of Rush. Hannity's grammar is horrific. I have listened to Hannity for years, just trying to listen for Mark Levin, and other thinking guests. The jerk cannot even figure out how to dress.

I listened to Sean yesterday on my way home from work and heard what he had to say about Free Republic. IMHO I believe he was rifht on the mark with his comments.

This is coming from someone who has been around here almost from the beginning. I was here when the main topic was Whitewater and you could read all the daily posts in a single sitting. I was at the March for Justice rally and I stood outside the VP Mansion, shouting for Gore to GET OUT OF Chaney's HOUSE. When I first signed on to Free Republic everyone made you feel welcomed. People were very friendly and more then willing to help a Newbee learn the ropes. Newbees didn't get the response to their first post, Member since ...?, as if their motives for posting were suspect.

There are people on Free Republic who have that eat your own mentality. They are way to quick launch an attack on someone who makes a mistake in posting or says something they don't agree with. I even sent Jim Rob an E- mail a few years ago complaining about the very things that Sean was talking about yesterday.

I believe we here at Free Republic should take what Sean said to heart. Free Republic has proved to be a powerful force, that has and can continue to bring needed change to this country and hopefully help keep Hilary out of the WH.

In order to win the hearts and mind of others, we need to respect them as people, even if don't agree with everything they have say.

Didn't Sean say FReepers "eat their own"?

Didn't he, basicly, do the same thing two days ago?

He's a real FReeper!
