Whoa, good point. Don't forget to count up the multiple threads on same subjects.

Here's the balance, roses, murder versus general slander. Oh now, which pan in the hands of Lady Liberty weighs down more?

Seems to me that US Senators slandering US Soldiers is becoming so common and accepted that it's no big deal anymore. That's what liberals want. That and all of them wish it were still the 1960s.

Little dickie aka eddie haskell has never met a live solider he like, but you are not going to be able to do anything about him, cause he is a made man of the daley crime machine which controls illinois politics.

So grin and bear it, and remember that the state of radical republicans has become supporters of the party of the KKK.

Okay, count up all the posts on the supremely important Jacko case.

I think it just just shows that Durbin knows the Dim base. He will get away with it, because the majority of the base agree with him.

We will see in his next general electon if he pays a price. This is of course the main reason why the Dims are shrinking.

A VERY, VERY good point, roses of sharon.

They're both important issues, and you can't gauge their individual importance by number of replies. A decent ZOT will get hundreds of comments, and so will Jacko-bunk. Nevertheless, thanks for the reminder to email Dicky "Pol Pot" Durbin.

Starving someone to death is a far more serious violation of human rights than some stupid statements by liberal Senators....

It's been going on since at least Jane Fonda. They did not even have a trial, let alone an execution for her treason.

I knew the democrats were never really "united" after 9/11. They just didn't have the spine to say what they meant. With the pain of 9/11 thawing from the public the democrats can now be themselves again. Anti-war pacifists. What a shame. And the biggest shame is that this idiot Durbin will get away with these statements

That idiocy has brought FR down from the stratosphere and weakened its effectiveness in fighting the REAL problems facing our nation. Any serious topic garners a comparatively small number compared to the TS nonsense threads.

Dozens of veterans from WWII are dying every day the vast majority of which are ignored while the cauterwaulng and breastbeating over the final release of TS reaches epidemic proportions. It is as though there is a deliberate campaign to destroy both FR and the GOP through obsessive attention to TS.

Now the autopsy has revealed that all the paranoia and lies the Schindleristas spread have no basis. But that will not stop them from attempting to discredit EVEN MORE medical and judicial authorities. They are worse than the DUmmies.

I posted a thread some time ago about an Australian citizen, a resident of California in a city very near to mine, who was kidnapped in Iraq and threatened with beheading. There were 7 repllies, of which three were mine, and one to inform me that the topic had been "covered" the previous day. I did a search, and found a thread posted the previous day about Mr. Wood, the hostage, and found (I think) 7 replies on that thread. I guess it's a far less interesting and important topic that Mrs. Schiavo's autopsy report, and the runaway bride, which also generated numerous threads and literally thousands of replies. Pretty sad.

The reason is that 99.99% of Freepers agree on the Durbin statements. If you look at the Schiavo and Jackson threads there is a lot of back and forth between opposing sides trying to prove their case. On a Durbin thread after a certain number of posts, all your going to get is posts saying yeah, I agree with what he said.

Thanks for reminding everybody about this issue. Durbin is a dirt bag. But on FR there are some people who are literally joined at the hip to one issue, whether it's Terri Schiavo or illegal immigration or something else. Others are on here to simply chat. But hopefully there are enough people on here and other forums who are interested in a broad range of issues. And maybe they are the ones who will really accomplish something.

Schiavo symbolizes what our soldiers are fighting for: the freedom to kill someone who could reportedly speak, who could reportedly see, and who could be judged by a man who could not see the evidence, nor see the body language of the witnesses he chose to bar from the court.

You might think this is a cute wedge issue. Forget it. People like Boortz, who refuse to hear the nurses, who refuse to hear the deposition that Michael honestly didn't know what Terri wanted, guys like him only fan the fire on this. Thank you for helping to bring back the Terry issue.

Yesterday, I made a choice. I had a Terri tagline up for months. I took it down yesterday. And while I still talk a lot about Terri, there isn't much more fuel left to keep that story going the way it did, except for threads like your's.

So I ask you, are the soldiers and marines fighting out there to keep our current oligarchy intact? Or are they fighting for Life and Liberty? They have their job, and we have our's. We failed Terri. Our judicial system didn't even investigate a tape that allegely had her voice in it. According to Savage, the Medical Examiner didn't even allow a Schindler-selected witness to watch the autopsy. What was he hiding?

You don't understand.

Exposing the massive Scientologist-led conspiracy to kill Terri Schiavo and cover it up (said conspiracy requiring the active involvement of the entire State of Florida) is FAR more important than a United States Senator committing treason.

I guess Durbin, a United States Senator, will again get away with slander and aiding and abetting our enemies.

I respectfully request that you quit your whining.

You see, there are many people at this forum who think Terri Schiavo was murdered, and there are many people here who believe her beliefs were followed. Both sides have been very vocal. Controversy often produces discussion, and so the threads become quite long.

Meanwhile, there is no controversy at all at FR about Dick Durbin. Every Freeper knows he is a pustulous scumbag. Therefore, a thread detailing what a pustulous scumbag he is will not produce controversy, and therefore produce less discussion. One might as well complain because we didn't acknowledge that the sky is blue with a 3,000 post megathread.

So, if you want to do something about Durbin, write him a letter instead of pretending that Freepers lack commitment to the troops. A more ludicrous thesis could not be advanced.
