Study Says Reverence for Liberty Sign of Terrorism
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 7 July 2012 | John Semmens

Posted on 07/08/2012 4:20:01 PM PDT by John Semmens

A University of Maryland study funded by the Department of Homeland Security found that “persons reverent about individual liberty are likely to be right-wing terrorists.” “It makes perfect sense when you think about it,” said Secretary Janet Napolitano. “The phrase ‘individual liberty’ doesn’t appear in any of our nation’s founding documents. Its advocates are clearly and suspiciously out of step with America’s basic values.”

Which makes us more grown to than you.
***Then getting [satire] added the title wouldn’t be a problem, since you’re all grown up & all.

I wonder why John doesn’t defend himself on these threads that he goes to so much trouble to blog pimp for?

Almost got me again.
But even the in-your-face traitors in DC aren't stupid enough to pursue that argument!

I’m putting this forth as a general note, because it’s a bigger problem than just one poster on just one thread.

Unless you’re logged in as a moderator, you’re not one. You don’t have any more authority over Freepers than any of us other poor slobs. So here’s a friendly suggestion: Don’t act as if you do. You may think you’re helping the owner and the mods do their jobs. What you’re really doing, more and more so the longer you do it, is being a goatse-sized pain in the ass.

There’s no need for defense; you make an ass of yourself, he gets more hits on his thread. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Why would he gripe about that?

Preparation H may give you relief.

Just stick it in your ear.

Wait... was that intended for John, or someone else? Because John’s been silent on this thread, whereas others have been, shall we say, less than cordial.

***typical of blogpimps...

Note that he barely logs onto his own threads, much like a standard blogpimp. It’s not like I log onto all his threads, so where exactly is the ‘good deal’? Especially for Free Republic?

Why would he gripe about that?
***You’re absolutely right about that. He gets to blogpimp under the radar, nothing to gripe about.

The word “satire” appears right under the title of each article I post. It also appears in “key words.” Based on feedback from readers, this seems the fairest middle ground between those who want SATIRE in all caps to be embedded in the title and those who do not want to see the word “satire” appear anywhere.

My objective isn’t to “catch” anyone. It is ridicule the absurd and dangerous policies of those who govern.

From time-to-time I seem to rankle the self-appointed “blog police.” This is not my aim. I’m sorry for disturbing anyone repose.

How many hits does your blog site get from Free Republic?

My objective isn’t to “catch” anyone.

Right. Do you contribute to Free Republic proportionally?

Or do you just wallow in those hits and order another Loofah?

You would not be directing traffic to your site were it not for a motive.

Define that motive, satire man. Are there ads on your blog?

Look st the latest articles and the word “satire” doesn’t appear.

THAT is why it needs to be in the title.

How many times do I have to explain the same thing to you?

I have no blog. I write satires that appear on several different sites in addition to Free Republic.

I get no compensation from any ads that may appear on any blog. Neither am I paid a salary, wage, or commission. There is no monetary incentive whatsoever.

Your quest for an ulterior motive in my posts is fruitless, insulting, and annoying. Surely there are more useful ways you could spend your energy—like fighting against the enemies of liberty.

My name john Semens. I no ken write. So I steal hedlines, real storries end slap my title on it & call it satire. Itz mucho eazier than write my own stuff for humur. Uv korse, if I encluuded [satire] in the titel of da thread, very few freepers wuld read it. So i stuck, bein’ crap writer and all, with this aproche.

***Craptires, not satires. Man up, put [satire] in the title and be done with it. Otherwise, your motives are fair game.

Even if you do man up, you still appear to be a blog pimp. What value do you bring to Free Republic? If it’s supposedly humor, then accomodate those of us who think this isn’t remotely funny.

It seems obvious that you don’t even read the keywords yourself, since so many of your threads show ‘craptire’ and ‘not worth reading’ and ‘waste of time’ and ‘stupid’ as keywords as well. A few days ago, you didn’t even put [satire] in the keywords, and all the other adversarial keywords were there. That makes it official, that what you’re putting out there truly is craptire. Do something about it.

Here is a screen shot of FR's "Latest Posts".

I don't see a keyword do you?
