I asked Jim Robinson today to delete my account on Free Republic. He asked me to post an opus so some folks would not think that I was banned for no reason. Here is my brief opus:
Thank you Free Republic and Good Bye. This was an excellent forum for many years but now I do not think it is so in my humble opinion. The trend where the forum is going is very clear to me and I do not want to be part of it.
For all the Freepers with whom I have had good relationship and great discussions I want to thank you for all the good time we had together on this forum.
God Bless America and Our Brave Troops.
PS: Now Jim Robinson can ban my account.
Be careful what you wish for.
But , But, I’ve been lurking since Reagan was Elected...
No, wait, I mean I had to retire my old freeper name...
No, I mean, there’s no pleasing you grumpy old men....
:-)
I knew I had you pegged, stick around man, I’ve given at least 3 opai in my long tour here on the FR. Things will get better, and you might be able to retire decently and not have to live off purina dog chow thanks to this election, it’s not all bad man.
I’ll just take my little ball and go home!!!! LOL!!!
***SNORT!*** Geez, best laugh I had all day, now where's the paper towels so I can wipe a diet coke off my monitor?
Here's hoping you'll just take a time out and start posting again. The forum won't be the same without you.
The bad guys won, Joseph.
Their accounts show active. Nopardons posted yesterday but Howlin and Peach have not come back.
You will be missed. Maybe you will reconsider in a few months?
Allegra left????
I would distinguish the “harsh language visciousness” with the “personal attack visciousness”.
I’m sorry, I didn’t catch all that. Could you try repeating it between breaths?
/ducks
Some think Palin might be the reason you are leaving...but frankly she has not yet declared she will run....and if she doesn't then you're leaving would be in vane. At least wait until she claims her run or not...Please.
If there are other reasons...such as the bites and digs made...I think we all get that one time or another..and sometime often. Good then to remember we don't know what's happening in that persons off-line life...Again the economy and such has everyone on edge....every day!
I hope you will reconsider Jveritas...at most take a short leave away and then come back....I've often seen others take a vacation from FR...but they come back when it matters they be here....you matter to most.
And the really crazy ones stay for the duration.
This forum wasn't around when Reagan was elected. Geez man, 99.999% of the American Public didn't even know what the Internet was then, and it was still primarily used by the Government, Science and Education institutions! Learn how to lie will ya?
No, wait, I mean I had to retire my old freeper name...
If I had a nickel for every time I've heard that on here, I'd have a few bucks by now. Warren Buffet look out!
No, I mean, there’s no pleasing you grumpy old men.... farts. There, fixed it for you.
Man, we grumpy old farts gotta do all the heavy lifting around here don't we? :-)
To say nothing of your "The Stimulus must be passed" garbage. So were I to hazard a guess as to your leaving, I would guess it irks you to see Conservatives getting the upper hand instead of RINOS. But what do I know.
LOL
Wait a second. Aren't we all drunk when we are reading FR?
I don’t know what a Harpie is.
