Same to you as well. It just kind of pissed me off to be labeled a troll because I signed up with a new name today. I can assure you that I am what I say I am. Hell I got kicked out of a class because I told my professor that Clinton was a rapist.
I think if you go to my posts and most of the others (I can't vouch for each and every one) you will see that there were reasons you were suspect.
Believe me, Free Republic wants more Freepers. Heck, even Democrat Party converts, if they do pennance. ;) That is one of the main reasons Jim Robinson started this.
I think you'll do great here. Just give it a little time and don't lose your cool.
I think you're out of the ZOT fire line now, stay safe.
