I am a bit bothered by this repeated encounter with censorship on your site. This is the second time that I have encountered censorship on your site. The first time was when I was removed from being allowed to post for expressing that FOX News does not represent true conservatism, and it doesnt.
John Robinson sent me one kind email saying that the reason was that they typically get trolls and identify them for attacking FOX News. The second email that came from John immediately after was that he wished me the best of luck if I tried to expose the censorship on FreeRepublic against conservatives that apparently exists if you do not bow to the current politicians in power and owe your loyalty to the now less than conservative Republican party. That was rather rude, but I did not pay it much mind.
Today I was surfing and came across a site I do not agree with on all levels, but tried to make a post about some revealing facts that presented on their site about the perversity of Disney.
What was the result of my trying to make this post?
I got a message saying the source was not welcome on FreeRepublic.
As a conservative who would put any average Republican to shame with my traditional values and economic view that makes Reagan look like a two-bit haircut in a black and white movie, I would love to hear why this one is censored. And, as I told John, I can easily take these issues straight to conservatives who do not feel that Club GOP represents conservatism on the Internet with my web development skills.
I also just noticed that your site has made it impossible to highlight text in fields for posting in trying to copy and paste this link. On the one hand, I do believe in driving out stupidity from the Internet. On the other hand, I believe that only liberal leftist propaganda need be removed. I am beginning to wonder what makes FreeRepublic think that one conservative is acceptable rather than another. I think that conservatives like me would be interested to know the limitations you have obviously coded into publication on your site.
As I said, I do not agree with everything I read on the site I tried to link, but they did a very good job of exposing Disney on the link above.
Think about it.
I don’t know where to start, so I won’t. You are so wrong on so many levels. Probably the most fundamental one, is it being all about you. And that’s what gives you away.
IBTZ and loving it.

Well, I had my 2c worth. Sheesh. It’s all about him.
Have you read about the lawsuits?
Do you think that those could play a role?
The decision isn’t only just JR and JR’s.
Oh how I wish I had written that! You put into words exactly what I was thinking...but hestitated, hoping the troll would get zotted.
Pink boa. Now that’s shameful. Perfect, but shameful.
BWAHAAAAAAHAAAAAAAA...
self ping
IBTZ and wondering why the thread poster is still here.
Why do cats “play” with their food before they eat it?
I hear Go Daddy is selling domain names for $1.99, if you can handle hotties selling you stuff. Have fun with your own website—maybe you can end up like Charles Johnson. Sounds like you’re well on your way already.
Since you haven't been Zotted yet here's a tip. Copy and paste doesn't work. You have to use HTML code to make 'bold', italics', 'paragraphs', or font color & size changes.
Annnd all 'conservative' sources are NOT welcome. As they can be far-FAR right wacko wing nuts and the MSM will use that junk as pr against Free Republic. Bill O'Reilly did that a couple years ago with a poster who got zotted after he posted some very offensive junk, but they found it and used it ON AIR.
Plus there's also copyright issues to consider. Not all 'stuff' on the internet falls under 'fair use'.
So, Behave. Follow the rules. And all will be fine.
I bet you are the type who doesn’t mind the Klan deciding to hold a rally in your home, right? What. No? This site is also private property and the ptbs can choose what content they want on the site- get it?
Dear noob - poke a DOOB........
Don’t like it, get your own website. Nobody is stopping you.

No! I guess anyone can become a member these days. :/
Ain't THAT the truth. ;0)
I’m Sooooo sorry!
I forgot to ping you to post #138.
(How rude of me!)
