That’s fine.

You’re post two days ago indicated that you are fine with all of Roody’s leftist policies except immigration and it is certainly your prerogative to support a RINO leftist. However, what I’m more interested in are the posts made on the secret threads; you know, the ones you were making up until ten hours ago.

Interesting - they used to be rabid Rudy supporters.

That was sarcasm.

Makes sense, I'm fairly certain that demetia is a symptom of rabies.

They claim it’s unfair to speak of posters who cannot defend themselves here, yet that is exactly the purpose of Salt River ~ to post without being challenged.

Hard as MadIvan tries, he cannot hide the fact that WA is anti-FR.
They’ve pulled many threads (too late) from public view, and pleaded with members to not mention FR outside of Salt River.

secret threads? I'm at a loss...how do you have "secret threads"? If you want a "secret thread" why wouldn't they simply password the thread?

Yes, I AM open to a Rudy candidacy. Ronald Reagan recruited and supported Arlen Specticle...what's your point?

I'm not, not have I ever been, a social conservative. I don't foist my views on anyone else and I try to discuss issues rationally.

I am also open to a Duncan Hunter candidacy and a Fred Thompson candidacy. It appears to me that the differences between

I have also made it clear here on FR, that I am NOT open to a McLame candidacy or a Gingrich candidacy...I have made my vehement disagreement clear, here on FR, with Pres Bush on the amnesty bill, on the Port Snort and his apparent "new tone" with Democrats but not with his base. So what? My political world doesn't revolve around "social issues" such as Gay Rights and abortion. In my view, there are far greater, and more immediate, dangers and threats facing us than two guys who choose to enter into a civil union.

But suddenly I'm posting on "secret threads"? That's ridiculous.

I’m genuinely surprised.

anyone who has even casually observed at WA is aware of the existence of salt river and chat features not available except to those deemed worthy. for you to deny those makes it impossible to take seriously anything you say here. please accept it as a given that everyone is aware of the existence of those things and it has ZERO to do with paranoia. your protestations against references to the departed by those of us still here, in light of the fact that the same thing is going on behind closed doors there is what is problematic.

Let’s see:

Sofaman last active 10 hours ago:
http://www.wideawakes.net/forum/search.php?PostBackAction=Search&Keywords=sofaman&Type=Users&btnSubmit=Search

Sofaman last comment 2 days ago:
http://www.wideawakes.net/forum/search.php?PostBackAction=Search&Advanced=1&Type=Comments&Keywords=&Categories=&AuthUsername=sofaman&btnSubmit=Search

So, it is obvious that between the public comment two days ago and ten hours ago, posts were made. Deny it all you want. (And I am fully aware that if sofaman goes and makes a public comment, all of this will be a moot point; however, just pick on of the other anti-FReeper WAckos and you will probably see the same thing.)

I guess I'll have to jump onto the "Salt River" thread and see what you're talking about. It is my experience that the site is not a bash FR site. There very probably are folks who are bitter with FR, because they are no longer welcome here. The majority of folks have better things to do than go to "secret threads" and bash FR.

But I'm not here looking for recruits. I spend most of my chat time here on the Rush, Hannity and TGO threads, as well as the ME threads and pings.

The saddest part of this, is that we're supposed to be on the same side! We're supposed to be lined up against Her Thighness and Barak Hussein Obama. Instead, we're fighting amongst ourselves. THAT is the shame of this entire absurdity.

Okay then, which closed thread were you on ten hours ago?

anyone can enter Salt River. All you have to do is register on the site. The same with Chat. There are no passwords, super secret handshakes, secret buttons or any other silly things.

Again, my purpose is not to recruit folks to that site. I took exception to folks there that are bashed here without being able to defend themselves.

Thompson/Steele - I agree...this would be my dream ticket as well. I was very impressed with Michael Steele and would like to see him on the ticket with my man Fred Thompson.

How about Thompson/Guiliani...with Gui as VP.

I would be okay with that, and that would be unbeatable.

Why is Salt River non-public?

and why does one see FR bashing comments expunged and those posters told to take their comments there?

posts were made "between"?

Wagglebee, apparently you've made up your mind. But your argument is silly. All you can point to is that i have posted there. Why not check back and see how many times I've posted here in the past 2 days.

Evidently, as far as you're concerned, the cardinal sin is to post there in the first place. You, therefore, jump to the conclusion that I must be posting in "secret". It isn't at all possible that I haven't posted, but have simply browsed the site!

Your argument is designed to place me on the defensive by making silly claims. Have at it...I'm off to the Rush Thread...
