The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of FreeRepublic [OK I'm a liberal so ZOT me!]

[OK Im a liberal so sue me]

The Good:

This site is very popular (for some reason) and is one of the most visited on the internet. It may be the most popular forum site, which is why I post here even though the viepoints expressed here are decidedly different from mine.

The Bad:

This site really sucks. I mean it used to be interesting, but now it's nothing more than a father version of Lucianne.com where all that's allowed are the latest kneepad tributes to President Bush.

The Ugly:

I would like to say this site is racist, homophobic, sexist, blah, blah, blah. But since those are no longer the talking points of the RNC(to hold on that 5% of minority votes, I assume), it wouldn't be correct to say that. What is truly ugly is that Visa logo on the front page with "support freerepublic" inside it. If that is not trademark infringement, it surely is gross shamelessness and bad taste. I mean, come on guys.

That's not how conservatives operate. That's how libs like you operate.

When you can't win the debate in the legislature, you try to take it to the courts. And for now, you get many of those passed. But as time goes on, you will lose more and more of your grip there too. Just as you lost Congress because of slick willy, you'll continue to lose because you're on the wrong side of most issues.... It doesn't look like your future is too bright (figuratively and literally).

I always loved the Emperor Palpatine character from Return of the Jedi. He's such an odd combination of weird, evil, and pathetic.

And the way he talked was just perfect, too. "Yes, young DUmpster, your feeble trolls are no match for the power of the right side."

Hey, I remember that game..... What is the name of it again?

[Phaedrus]

We're winning, Troll. Children are going to be sent to their rooms.

[Johnny Gage]

Thanks!

Yes. It took a while for me to find "just the right" picture of the Emperor. LOL

[MissAmericanPie]

Gee, finally, we have been hanging around here for years in breathless anticipation of your egocentric opinion. You have vented, now we can breathe easy, our mission in life has finally been accomplished.

Wonder what we can do for fun now?;o)

A mighty wind!

"...but then I found his arguments to be so compelling, that it has completely caused me to rethink everything..."

Why, me too. Golly, he has turned me around; straightened me right out. Now I'm going to go find some unborn babies to butcher, some middle class folks to rob of all their savings, some terrorists to kowtow to, and join the Hillary! campaign/non-campaign.

I'll also start picking scabs...............

Isn't moveon.org or fearbush.com looking for a new spokeperson? This guy would surely be appreciated over there. It's always good to wake in the morning with a good laugh. I can always count on liberals to remind me of how glad I am that Bush is in charge, and that people like this will never be. Well, at least not without lying, cheating, stealing, etc, etc.

[dfwgator]

Your story has grown tiresome.

[smith288]

Infringing since 1998!

[Jonah Hex]

Where I work, we still do that to liberals. The sad part is, they're beginning to enjoy it!

You Might be a Troll if ...

If that post is the best you can come up with ... you might be a troll.

If you like DU ... you might be a troll.

If you have had more than two screen names at Free Republic in one week ... you might be a troll.

If you can't remember the last time you bathed ... you might be a troll.

If you think that U.S. courts should consider the rulings and opinions of the courts of other countries rather than basing their rulings exclusively on the U.S. Constitution and the laws of the U.S. and of its several states ... you might be a troll.

If you think The Guardian is anything other than a socialist rag ... you are probably a troll.

If you think algore really won the Florida election, but the mean old US Supreme Court wouldn't allow the rules for counting ballots to be changed to your liking ... you must be a troll.

If you think the economy would be doing better if Congress hadn't passed those piddly little tax cuts ... you must be a troll.

If you think foreign policy under an algore administration or that of any of the current democrat wannabees would make us safer from attack from our enemies ... you must be a troll.

Hey troll, this viking kitty has a message for you:

[Spartano]

Liberals are sick. Now, I understand why they want high taxes, they enjoy pain.

[VRWCmember]

You almosted started an interesting discussion with some vailid points. Sadly, you're probably too far over the line to avoid censure from the ZOT happy crowd. And you're kind of an idiot.

Hmmm, what vailid points did this idiot raise that almosted started an interesting discussion?

By the way, are you aware of the new spell check feature at FR?

[Noumenon]

Reason and logic are wasted on those capable of neither.
