Well, well, well. I see that you are PROUD of your disgusting post, which I objected to a couple of weeks ago. You have to be a liberal; you have no shame. Sadly for you, your two targets are very happy in another place, while you are still here wallowing in your bile.

Yeah, whatever.

We’re famous, we’re frisky, we’re in your face!

LOL!

To meet freepers go to FR search and type in "FReeps Ashore".

Yes, also tired of the Reagan bashing.
I worked for him here in San Diego when he first ran for Gov.

We knew him as our Gov. for 8 years besides our Pres.
Most bashing him live in other states and in some cases wern’t around in the 60s when he was Gov. and how he cleaned up a huge mess and delt with anti war protesters.
Most of these same bashers were not into politics in the 1980s and are now just functioning on emotions not facts.

I was watching a clip today of Reagans funeral where they were singing The Battle Hymn of the Republic. It brought back so many memories.

Thanks for posting this. It’s interesting to see how the events on this site have been viewed. I notice that the truth is not contained in this story, wherein most of those banned went out of their way to abuse the site owner or commit some other similar offense. It’s really hard to see how they could write such an article without using the word “bugzapper”.

You mean to tell me there was Civil War here and I missed it? Heck I Freep often and for the past week been here 12 hours a day; been home ill, nothing better to do.

[SoCalPol]

[tutstar]

You’re officially pinged...

I for one am glad you took a stand! There have been way too many liberals in conservatives clothing running around here.

Interesting article.

I knew I had to find FR when I read an article about a protest march that was held outside the White House during the Clinton years.

The marchers were chanting,

Bill CLinton,
step away from the intern,
put down the cigar,
and come out with your pants up!

-something like that-

:)

I see no significant difference between Giuliani and Hillary Clinton. One of Giuliani’s supporters really jumped on me for no special reason.

[MadLibDisease]

Rudy who?
Run under the DNC banner and get lost Rudy, buh bye.

[Enosh]

You two chill. I happen to know that Humble is one of the good guys, so chill.

I must be working too much or either nobody bothered to tell me there was a purge.”

That’s what I was thinking.
I went and made a cup of coffee at the wrong time and missed the purge.

Over the past few weeks, chaos has reigned in the “Freeper” community as members sympathetic to the former mayor's candidacy claim to have suffered banishment from the site.

Chaos? Please. The people who got banned had it coming for a long time, if you ask me. Had they played their little double game on any one of the Dem websites, they would have been banned immediately. If you ask me, Jim has been remarkably tolerant of libs who pretend to be conservatives.

They were victimized, they say, by a wave of purges designed to weed out any remaining support for the Giuliani campaign on the popular conservative web forum.

And just like libs, they're always 'victims'. Need I say more?

Some conservative bloggers and former commenters contacted for their view of the continuing controversy say they believe that site founder Jim Robinson holds ideologically middling Republicans like Mr. Giuliani responsible for the GOP’s congressional loss and current woes.

The only place Rudy is "middling" is in NYC. I the rest of the country, he's far left.
