the nocturnal pasting over of election posters

Sounds kind of pornographic to me.

By the way, I think our Spiegel friends were attracted to us because of this thread:

When freeping a poll I copy the target URL first, then go to a third party site before pasting the URL into my browser's address bar.

At the latest since catastrophic 11 September and the radicalization in the political discourse of the USA, introduced thereby, "Freep" is stronger than ever before.

This article takes a loooong time to conclude that online polls are not scientific.

I love it. They miss the point somewhat though. It has always been my understanding that 'freeping a poll' wasn't an effort to deceive the public but is simply pointing out that on-line polls are meaningless.

We all know the media would like to poll a select sample (the leftist readers of der Spiegel for instance) and then use those numbers to write a story saying that 'X amount of people are for/against this/that'.

But if the sample is bogus (and if you're only polling communists about whom they believe to be the best President that would be a bogus sample) the whole poll is bogus.

By freeping the poll, we take away one of the tools of propaganda the media like to use.

The traditional media are dinosaurs. They don't like this new thing- the internet. They don't like it that there is a righteous sort of anarchy out there. Conservatives networked together by fiber optics, getting their message out and being able to react to a situation in a very short period of time. This is a threatening thing to the news media.

Thanks for posting this.

In it nothing changed.

. . . more exactly: A tuning, a Vote in the topic package. . . .

"Completely concretely"

"the power of the 'Freeper'."

"Bush's of results are exzellent."

"The mass however comes over Free Republic."


"'Free Republic': Disturb, manipulate, demonstrate for the right thing"


I love it!! Which one goes into the tag, though? Argh, decisions!

Howdy, B! :)

Thanks Petronski.

Me too. I'm glad I saw the other post this morning and was able to free this poll.
