VANITY: The "Truth" about JimRob and Free Republic according to BADJOE

LibertyPost.org | 10/10/03 | BADJOE (Slightly revised by JimRob)

[Jim Robinson]

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.

The Lutefisk Disenssion has more resonance.

You'll have to explain that one to me. Following that was like listening to Robert Byrd.

I am well into my thirties now, but I remember as a teen, first becoming interested in politics, watching Sheets Byrd discuss some damned Roman legislator for an hour or two, and I thought to myself, what the F*#@ was he talking about?

Now that I am older, I don't swear as much.

[NeoCaveman]

u know, now that I think about it, I think Byrd gets his lines from the movie Barbarella.

ROTFLMAO

Coming soon, on Oct. 18th, the one year anniversary of BadJoe's last post, "Lutefisk Discussion" will release their anticipated hit song, "BadJoe Weekend"...

Correction, "The Lutefisk Discussion"... my bad.

[truthandjustice1]

"will anyone really give a s**t?"

Apparently you do, Obewon. BTW: Rush rules.

[dogbyte12]

How about the "Lutefisk Experience"?

Kind of got a Hendrix retro vibe going there.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Well, the good news is, you're still here to answer that post.

Which means I have done my job :0)

Is this a "Straight Eye" kind of thing you're suggesting? Lurker and I should make a man out of Pardek, or what? (I volunteer to teach him about the NFL.)

[Admin Moderator]

Nope, not Dales, but the discussion starts here.
