I didn't misread your post at all. In THIS organization, you're trying to lecture people who bearded a rather large lion in its den for a long time, on behalf of Jim, and this forum.

Most of them have a long-established history with Free Republic that you don't seem to be aware of.

Some like Hepp and OWK and Daus have paid a high price for actively and vocally supporting and defending Free Republic and standing up for Jim at times when many of his friends were screwing him over and bailing out, trashing him in the process.

I certainly believe it entitles them to a minimum amount of respect, because these guys were carrying the load for years without being asked to. They stepped up to the plate and did it, because someone had to.

They were "supportive" in THEIR own way, and it hardly included trying to bring down Jim or Free Republic.

These guys were THE front line for Free Republic when people were actively trying to send Jim to jail, to close the site down, to disrupt and troll the forum...and they paid some high prices for it.

I'm not even sure who your remarks were intended for, but just in case you meant OWK, Daus, Hepp, Tpaine---I want you to know that you're wrong about them. They were the worker bees for a long time, Leni.

Hope this helps.
