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

Posted on 12/02/2003 5:51:32 AM PST by 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.

Correct. Most posts here contain correct spelling and grammar, and usually can be found in the nonfiction section.

I was about to take it down, but then I found his arguments to be so compelling, that it has completely caused me to rethink everything. I am even now considering voting for that angry fire hydrant guy, what's his name? Harold Dean?

Can you run that by me again? I don't get it. Are you trying to say that the RNC's talking points were that FR is racist, homophobic, sexist, and blah blah blah?" ;)

I think the first time I heard that line was in 1998. Boring...

If you don't like the site go away. You have a ton of alternative places to go. Why torture youself?

So this post doubles as an opus (and a lousy one at that...)

This almost looks like someone is on Full Sentry Duty over at the LittlePlayground.

I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

Psychological studies and all, donchyano.

You know, one of my favorite features of FR is that you can click on a user name and (1) see when a person joined (OK Im a liberal so sue me - member since Decmber 2, 2003) and (2) See how many times said user has posted (OK Im a liberal so sue me - 1 post, this one)

As a result I can see that you are definately a liberal, since the first thing you type is a complete bald-faced lie. Welcome to FR troll, don't the doorknob hit you after the ZOT!

Your appearance here means that FR gets under your thin socialist skin. Thats good, thanks for reminding us that we are winning. Loser

How come you post only once and are afraid to respond? It gives your cause a bad name as well as display a lack of character and substance.
