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.
Now there's a cool band name. The Lutefisk Discussion. Chad, what do you think?
Thank you for noticing and making this point. Those of us in the FR scientific community that have a belief in God sometimes participate in prayer threads. However, those of us who do not have a belief in God do not troll or try to disrupt those threads. The reverse is not true.
Barney muerte!
At post 1661 Dales made an appeal to all of us. I support the recommendation and will cooperate in making peace by keeping my own.
Hugs!!!
Dales, is that you? If not, I want Dales to get a time out. He ducked the lutefisk issue, even after I directly asked him upthread. It's this unaccountability in moderators that is causing all the problems here.
Be a man Dales... what about lutefisk?
What, someone mentioned "my dog Billy"
Pretty, pretty, pretty...
You know, now that I think about it, I think Byrd gets his lines from the movie Barbarella.
And bashing you is not bashing Christians. You are bashed for posting badly argued opinions, not for your Christianity.
