I can tell that Freerepublic has started spiraling into hysteria similar to what I sensed around the 2008 election time.... I'll check back in in 2013 to see if things simmered down.
"Censorship reflects a society's lack of confidence in itself. It is the hallmark of an authoritarian regime..." --Justice Potter Stewart, dissenting Ginzberg v. United States, 383 U.S. 463 (1966)

“You know how to walk, don’t you Steve? You just put one foot in front of the other .... “ Bogart’s squeeze whose name I can’t remember to save my life
Night Ron. See you tomorrow.
: )
Same here. (and rightly so).
I look at it like this. When you see someone about to get hit by a truck, you make the attempt to save them from certain disaster. Having strong opinions is part and parcel of who we are.
It seems totally crazy to not make the best effort possible to save that person from a possibly life altering mistake. Are I/me/we wrong to do so? Opinions vary. But to me I can’t in good conscience try to stop a disaster in whatever way I can.
Phyllis Diller? Andy McDowell? Lauren Bacall?
And principled men can be MOST unreasonable.

And the squeeze was Lauren BaCall.
Just say "Aloha!" and you have all the bases covered, even in a case like this.
I can’t find my posts/replies stats... where is that these days?
“Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.”
GMTA! lol.
I've disagreed loudly (and recently) with some folks I have come to respect over many years. And if the subject isn't getting me to vote for Romney, we generally see eye-to-eye.
But I'll get loud too.
And speak my piece.
And if you aren't violating the basic rules, I'll just give as good as I get.
And then give you a recipe for my ultimate scrambled eggs.
No hate.
But I won't give up my principles.

Second you can't remember Lauren Bacall.
And Thirdly and worstly (if worstly is a word) You linked to Hanoi Jane
If I was the moderator . . .
Here I am a voice in the wilderness and I agree with you Onyx. I haven’t watch Fox in along time. I get all my news from right here at FR.
It looks like the thunder of Thor’s Hammer has struck again.

Look under the tab “Account”.
That was a pretty nasty thing to say just to suck-up to some guy who wrote an opus. At least there aren't many a-holes who have done that.
Okay, that is funny there....I'm outta here tonight too ladies.
God Bless, sleep tight, and may we get though this all together safe and free.
thanks.
You may be right—I’ve never seen Hanoi Jane and Nancy Sinatra together.
Other than that, Bipolar Bob, how are you tonight?
Thanks for saying it. It’s rather childish of a “moderator” to post something of that sorts! I didn’t realize the more you posted the more you count around here.
