I have a problem with folks using Free Republic as an advertising platform for their "writing".
Do you imagine your MySpace blog or whatever it is gets more page views than Free Republic?
If you have a message to impart, this would be the wider audience.
Or is it just "hits" that you are after, and the message be damned?
The message is the message, anywhere and everywhere it is posted.
Your obsession with complete posts is at odds with stated policies of Free Republic, which has posted that it sees itself in part as a gateway, and enjoys that position.
Now, take a deep breath, and relax.
