FR is bigger than that. Don't EVEN worry about us.
Wherever there's trouble-we'll be there.
Wherever there's a pol talking from both sides of his mouth-we'll be there.
Wherever there is a lying media expert trying to pass of forgered documents as real-- Free Republic will be there to administer the big smack-down.
FR is the elephant in the living room that everyone know's is there, but no one ever names. It's pretty funny how all media types (MSM, Rush, Fox, et al) go to great lengths to avoid actually referring to FR.
While Rush & Fox seem to periodically give kudos to FR, most of the time it never comes up. Yet, if you're a FR reader, you know their clever little take or tidbit was lifted directly from FR just hours earlier.
Even funnier are the WP and LAT - they NEVER refer to FR, but go to great lengths to mention other low-volume sites.
