One correction, though. FR is not a blog; it is a forum. We are forum members, not bloggers.
Bears repeating. I think many of the newbies the last few months have the idea that Free republic is an "open blog" to post whatever, wherever. But that's why the site owners put a choice for "Bloggers and Personal", which is actually where this vanity should be posted. Plus it includes a subtle personal attack on another member, accusing them of being a liberal(?), so I question this post in it's entirety.
Hey Bob,
I'll keep the Forum in mind : D
But I have to ask....why the big Forum vs. blogger differential. I mean if I may be so bold as to ask. I'm sure it's probably because the blogger thing has a negative connotation of naval-gazing e-journaling narcisissm, but really "Bloggers"...and that is the term being used in the press...are the ones being credited with bringing the mighty Dan down. And the Admiral considered me as having some sort of real "clout" as a blogger. So I certainly don't want to go against the grain. The Forum it is. Julius Caesar and all that. Friends Romans, countrmen..But to quote the Bard "A rose by any other name is still as sweet," if'n ya catch my drift. : D Thanks for keeping this newbie on track, Bob!! Don't wanna be a persona non grata from day one - ha!
