Your being eaten ALIVE!

[AnAmericanMother]

LOL!

I got halfway out of my chair to head for the OED, then thought . . . nah!

You got me for about 10 seconds, anyhow. "I be used to bein' put upon, Mus' Midmore, but you got me . . . you got me."

[DonaldDuke]

I am Michael Joseph McCarthy

So ferret is also a Kerry campaign activist?

[dirtboy]

I would never torch someone else's private - or public - property....If this doesn't happen, we will crush the FR and remove it like a malignant tumor

You have a bit of a contradiction to work out here.

[sergeantdave]

If I understand this correctly (your anti-fascist rant made no sense and completely missed defining the basic tenets of fascism) you're a Green Party member.

If anything mirrors the domestic fascism of Hitler, it's the Green Party and its more visible older brother, the democrats.

The basic tenet of fascism can be boiled down to one sentence - state control of private property. That is the goal of the Green Party, America's nascent, nature worshipping fascist cult.

ps - send us photos of you tree-sitting in Mr. Red Cedar or dancing naked around oaks so we can write cutlines.

Greens are so much against progress that they would rather African starve than eat genetically modified food. Hardly surprising though when the same Greens think that AIDS is a good remedy to the problem of Africa's "unsustainability." Even Greenpiece is being taken over by anti-immigrant population control freaks

I think maybe you might feel more comfortable at this organization:

[dirtboy]

What is he? The human tripod of posters?

Nah, he's just got really short legs.

Swallow some Draino and make a video. We'll put it on pay-for-view streaming video and send Nader some of the proceeds.

While I hate Hillary as much as the next guy, posting her gynecological pictures on this forum is pretty tasteless!

[Dog Gone]

It's kind of weird that you accuse FR of being elitist in such a condescending post.

[bert]

Tree Spikers are terrorists.

[William Terrell]

I bash Bush and his policies a bunch, and I haven't been banned (yet).

I rather liked ferret, too, but he held one position that overrode all other positives and, as far as I'm concerned, placed him in the "shoot on sight" category. A salient part of his philosophy is that human life is no more valuable than animal life.

Don't tell me he doesn't; I discussed it with him.

Fascism tends to celebrate masculinity, mystical unity, and the regenerative power of violence. Often, but not always, it promotes racial superiority doctrines, ethnic persecution, imperialist expansion, and genocide. At the same time, fascists may embrace a form of internationalism based on either racial or ideological solidarity across national boundaries. Usually fascism espouses open male supremacy, though sometimes it may also promote female solidarity and new opportunities for women of the privileged nation or race.

This thread is intended to foster diolog in any event.

Your opus [wink] uses every big word in the book, yet you cannot spell dialogue? Hope you'll pardon me while I doubt your authorship. Ain't cut 'n paste great?

[Skooz]

That is a superb and insightful post.

I watch with amazement as the leftists quickly drift leftward out to sea, all the while screaming that the lighthouse on shore is moving to the right.

If I can make it fit, that will be my next tagline. Well said.

[Bluntpoint]

Did the old nun tell him to stop wiggling his toes or he will go blind?

[Liberty Valance]

The Gaia spaceship is leaving port. Be sure to buckle up :^)

[NeoCaveman]

Opus.

[Cultural Jihad]

Thank you for not deleting my account. Do I have your permission to thread parent my thread here? I will go nowhere else.

I will honor your wishes.

Ah, so now the anarcho-faeries are obediently and obeisantly bowing down to the fascists who are only out to stomp on everyone's neck, eh? Are you sure your name isn't Todd?

[jigsaw]

I'm just a Pit bull on the pant leg of opportunity.

Not trying to be cute, but your tagline might be more accurate if it read: I'm just a Pit bull peeing on the pant leg of opportunity.

I never wanted to leave the Free Republic, and would abide with the rules in every way in every respect as I have as Bicycle Thug since I sign up for the account if allowed to stay.

Jim Robinson banned me in March 2000 after some admittedly foul posts made while I was mortally angry at AOL's Steve Chase and company killing my old primary forum of residence.

I never was able to get an answer to any of my E mailings to him to try to make amends and to reestablish myself as an interlocutor here.

This is only an opus in that I finally realized I was being a hypocrite in my series of accounts here, regardless of how unjust the ban, regardless of my intentions.

If he were to allow me to stay, I would. But at this point, it is solely up to him to make that decision.

It is my responsibility to respect his decision if he decides that there is no place at all here for me.

The last thing I ever want to be is a disruptor, and believe it or not, despite my venting of the spleen here, I actually still respect him and know damn well part of this posting is engendered by a build-up of shear rage at not even being given the courtesy of a response as to why I was not welcome.

He is shrewd and smart, and is to be commended for his business savvy and abilities to create Free Republic. I wish him long life and prosperity regardless of my anger, and regardless of the words here expressing my deepest fears.
