VANITY: The "Truth" about JimRob and Free Republic according to BADJOE
LibertyPost.org | 10/10/03 | BADJOE (Slightly revised by JimRob)

Dear Free Republic Friends,

My old friend and brother-in-arms BADJOE has promised to warm the cockles of our hearts by publishing an expose (the truth about JimRob and Free Republic according to Joe) on the 18th of this month, which represents the one year anniversary of the date he last posted to FreeRepublic.com and started up with LibertyPost.org.

So, as I believe that only the truth can set you free, and based upon the stratergery of pre-emptive strike, I have a confession to make (before BADJOE makes it public):

I have poisoned the well.

By my sly innuendos behind the scenes.

By my intellectual ineptitude.

By not trusting those that brung me to the dance to bring me home.

By my biting every hand that fed me.

By my arrogance that causes me to think I did it all by myself.

By my stubborness not because of principle, but because of my lack of ability to see what is transpiring.

Evidenced by:

One would think that with half again as many Freepers. with a recovering economy, It would take a great deal less time to raise the necessary funds.

By this time in the June 2002 effort with a goal of $70,000 we had raised $73,000. Not because of who did the fundraising, but because the sense of purpose, of family, of comaraderie, was still present.

BADJOE rang the warning bell, but none heard.

Conclusion:

It is a sad day.

For what was once a great hope, a means of bringing together those who are willing to pay dearly in blood, sweat, and money to save this country, we all love, has been reduced to an asterisk.

So sayeth BADJOE as he promises to publish all this and much more on the 18th. He's been feverishly working on this "project" for one full year. In addition to the "truth about JimRob" BADJOE intends to further betray our trust placed in him by revealing the names of our moderators. And who knows what else?

I can hardly wait.

Is it the 18th yet? Tick, tock.

I really don't understand why someone could get so upset about getting banned from a Message Board.


Can't he(she?) just come back as a "BJ"? Who would know?

;-)

Every quarter, the anti-freepers at LP virtually get down on their knees praying the freep-a-thon will fail or drag on.

We can remedy this situation right this moment with our collective clicks on the donation link.

Bombs away!

Oh good! So the mod's are going to be named. Now I'll know who to suck up to where I don't get banned. :)

I'm not privy to everything (make that anything) that goes on behind closed doors on FR and I really don't feel any great need to know every last detail. I donate monthly because FR is worth it to me and isn't that what counts?

On a serious note though, I can only imagine the pain, hurt and anger Badjoe is feeling if he still needs to write his little expose` a year after the falling out occurred. I'm sorry he hasn't found a way to let go of his feelings and to move forward with his life.

God will surely punish me for my sins.

Perhaps the AM could arrange an honorary ZOT to ease Jim Rob's pain ;^)

FR ROCKS!!!

Jim...Badjoes rant last year was the most mean spirited post I ever read on FR including the recent napalm laced Colly-phonia crap...

Yeah well, I'd been meaning to talk to you about your color choices on the site, Jim. By stubbornly continuing to use colors on FreeRepublic, you discriminate against all of us poor, pathetic, color-blind folk who can't see 'em the way you do. I had intended to file a civil lawsuit myself, but they won't let me out of the padded room long enough to trot down to the courthouse and file the paperwork.

Back to reality - keep doing what you do and let the other guys continue to envy you, I say. You are the straw that stirs the drink.

(And, as for the threatened disclosure of the identities of your mods, isn't that something that can be addressed by civil legal action, disclosure of trade secrets, anti-stalking laws, etc?)
