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.

[Rushmore Rocks]

Jim, this is really poopy.....I will send another check in the morning.

[yonif]

Can someone tell me who "BadJoe" is? and what is LibertyPost?

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

I'm not even going to speculate on what killed him.

[habs4ever]

We could have waited another eight days, couldn't we, if any cared? Count me as one to say this thread is extremely manipulative and unneccessary.

Unless the scrolling fundraiser toolbar was the prime consideration....

[Chad Fairbanks]

Arch your eyebrows and curl your lips.

and gain weight and die on the toilet, and you'd be Elvis...

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

I'm trying. It ain't happenin', TS. Back to bewilderment I go.

[TomServo]

You'll have to sift thru the whole thread, Yonif.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

OMG - ROTFL

[TomServo]

Back to bewilderment I go.

Now that'll work, too. And confound him even more.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Awwww... come on, Habs. THese BadJoe Weekends only happen once or twice a year... can't you just relax and enjoy it?

[TomServo]

Elvis never arched his eyebrows. I won't dispute the rest though...

[Senator Pardek]

Lol - you're one of the few who have stolen my humor successfully.

[Chad Fairbanks]

Probably the lap dances...

[WIMom]

You all are still posting???? I'll have to review. BRB

[Chad Fairbanks]

Phew... at least I'm not alone in this LOL

[hotpotato]

Not likely. I've never had an entire thread dedicated to my on-screen name, either.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Not the pantyhose? Interesting.

[Senator Pardek]

pouter.

[small voice in the wilderness]

...but...but...but...just DAMN. Wait, it wasn't ME who went off on MurryMom, I think I was just responding to some ABBY person.

[MistyCA]

LOL! I can think of a few others......no, I take that back. They are all the same person too! :>)
