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.
Yum, Yum.
The Wesley Clark and Hillary of foodstuffs.
Guess who said that?
Hmm, makes one wonder why someone who has truly been given the Lord's eternal word should bother at all with what people say about them. Makes one wonder why someone who has received such assurances is not so wrapped up in Love that they continue to hold grudges for months. Makes one wonder how some one who supposedly prays for their enemies, stabs people in the back and gets them banned for disagreeing with them.
O Lutefisk, O Lutefisk, how fragrant your aroma.
O Lutefisk, O Lutefisk, you put me in a coma.
You smell so strong, you look like glue
You taste yust like an overshoe
But Lutefisk, come Saturday
I tink I'll eat you anyvay...
to be sung to the tune of O Tannenbaum
LOL!!
How silly, everyone knows its the Scots who are.
No, the "elect' are God's chosen people. Since the crucifixion, to be the seed of Abraham simply means to be a believer, and the elect are a part of those that are believers. Being that most of those that believe in Christ are in the Western nations, I'd imagine that most of the elect are in Western nations.
(It's kinda interesting actually talking to you about somethingother than the media's latest fixation)
What fixation? I've seen her on TV only twice. No more than Miller.
Celts were widely dispersed for a while.
Lefsa for those unaware, is the Norwegian tortilla, it's a flat bread made with potatoes, but is often used for dessert. Spread it with butter, cinnamon, and sugar, roll it up, and that is some good eating.
Ahhh... ok... you're talking about "The Elect". Dan Gayman wrote about them... Interesting theory.
Yeah, historians call a lot of people Celts. The Celts of the British Ilses are related to the Scythians and the Cimmerians and the Sarmations. Reason being is that shipping went from the middle east to the British Isles and Norway/Sweden/Finland before the migrations.
No, what Vade mentioned are the western migrations through Europe. You mentioned the "chosen". The "chosen" are not necessarily the same as those that migrated west. The Chosen are simply modern-day believers that are chosen because of their zealousness.
