You should have waited for evidence besides some lefty writer to post these unsubstantiated charges here in the first place.
This sounds bizarre, and I doubt that anyone from FreeRepublic had anything to do with this, if anything here is true. The behavior described is certainly NOT the style of anyone I know on this forum, and I've been aroun dhere quite a while.
Well, Doug, you've been here since 2001. Have you seen anything such as this here?
I've been here since 1998 and haven't.
---The people trying to stop the fundraising were from a very popular right wing website called "freerepublic". The community at this sight are almost without exception, drooling, knuckle dragging, hang on every word followers of the President, though I'd like to think they aren't "typical". They also, almost without exception tout themselves as "Christians".---
Yeah, he sounds like a republican alright ...insert 'rollingeyes' smiley face here.
Ping.
It doesn't sound right to me.
For only 10 more dollars, I'm sure someone will give you the answer,
Hmmmm....Andy....DU....I recollect reading something here about him. Perhaps DU Funnies? I think I recall this was a scam or something. Anyone else have info?
Gee, he didn't have an preconceived notions or biased opinions...
I have never heard this story. In addition, I live in PA and fairly near Williamsport, which has turned from the home if the Grange to a bastion of Pannsylvania State University (It's a COMMONWEALTH) stupidity and strip clubs. Likely, it's a convienient setup.
Check with PJ-Comix. I think it is pretty much a given the whole "Andy is dying of pancreatic cancer" fund raiser turned out to be a huge hoax perpetrated on DU'ers. More than likely, what happened was people from DU realized they were being taken, and they complained.

---Thanks for replying.
Briefly I'd like to explain why I called in the first place. Over the
past couple of years Andy Stephenson has been involved in a few
questionable donation drives that ended rather badly. In the past six
months I've received no less than 40 emails from Andy, or one of his
agents, soliciting donations for everything from lawyer fees,
unemployment relief, to medical tests.
This week the request took a rather shocking turn when the pleas for
money stated the were to receive cancer treatment.
Now if Andy in fact does require this treatment I'm not the type of
person that would try and hamper those efforts. However, there have
been several claims made that just don't quite add up. ---
Looks like he ran into problems because DU smelled something funny. But hey, if they can blame free republic for it, why the hell not???
Of course I haven't seen any such thing here. Quite the opposite, in fact. But I'm also not one to tell a guy, even a moonbat, who is obviously hurting that what he's saying couldn't be true without some evidence to back me up. I was hoping that someone else had heard about this posting he picked up and could tell me more about it.
From the use of their inflammatory language, I would say this is a bigger pile of lies than Joe Wilson's fact finding tour of Niger.
Hmmmm....this starts out saying "My wife and I" and ends with a bio of a woman writer.......????
Bogon flux rising, captain!!!!
