If there is any question of freepers being attacked, Jim should wipe out all forum posts'.

What's your poison? I like tanqueray and tonic, with lime. I'm buying the first, you have to catch the second.

Judging by this thread, the lightbulb will never get changed due to endless bickering over everything from brand to wattage ;^) Watch it now! You're not libeling my brand are you? And if so watt for?

Don't forget, you also have to go to the Captain's head and service his flux capacitor, sharpen all the skyhooks (red, blue and green), disinfect the poopdeck and supply geedunk to Charlie Nobel each dogwatch.

We haven't addressed the question of how many Freepers it takes to screw in a Light Bulb yet. Riiight. None of you bothered to screw in a light bulb when clinton was president !

Do you know they are impoverished? Besides, if you are seeking to clear your good name, the assets of the offending party don't matter at all. Of course, if Mr. Schiavo were to sue Mr. Schindler, he would have to make public a lot of information he is now keeping secret and he would have to attempt to prove what Mr. Schindler said was untrue.
To: Lazamataz
Yes, I can spare a life. I got me an extra blue peg in the game of life. You can be him. I opted for millionaire's acres... And won. Only, the goverment took my winnings. So, we'll both meet at the poor farm. See you there!!!!!!!!!

And there's that pesky seabat in the hangar bay, nesting by one of the Tomcats. Gotta catch that thing before the XO finds out about it.

Maybe it's because the Schindlers have already impoverished themselves.Mr. Schiavo is already knee deep in legal matters. For him to get to the point were he would attempt to sure anyone on Free Republic he would have had to pay a fortune in legal fees, with no hope of ever recovering near the amount he spends. I think the chances such a suit could go forward have been exagerated, but even so, he would have to be ridiculously wealthy to get to that point.

"beginning"????
To: nickcarraway
What about Bill Clinton? No one has been defamed on this site more than him.No question that Clinton is a public figure. But others? It'd be up to the courts.
To: Chancellor Palpatine
If you think you have been defamed by a newspaper, magazine, radio or television station, you must make a demand for retraction before a lawsuit can be filed. If the newspaper, magazine, radio or television station publishes a retraction, you can still file suit, but your damages may be limited. Unless the media defendant acted with malice, bad faith or reckless disregard for the truth or falsity of the story, you can only recover your actual damages. No punitive damages can be assessed in the absence of these elements.Has anyone on Free Republic been demanded to make a retraction, much less refused that request?
To: concerned about politics

It depend on what the meaning of 'was' was.
To: Neets
I've never had it. Next time I'm there, I'll give it a go. Thanks!
To: Catspaw; Poohbah
Has Mr. Schiavo asked any party for a retraction?
How many parties in the Unites States would he need to pursue?
The laws regarding this are much stricter in England, but even there it's not that easy.
