I heard a radio talk show host say that the dems are loving the fact that the Republican party is not in lock-step on immigration reform and even social security---they will try to exploit the "schism" as much as possible between now and 2006 and 2008---
I think the dems know that FR has gotten quite a reputation now, so they may see this as a good place to try to subvert the forum of different and yet respectful ideas---
I have faith the JR and the other Freepers that really care about our Country, and this website will NOT let that happen---
As you suggest, this is the reason we see so many trolls here.
