Amen!! I also post to let others know things that are important, they might not see elsewhere, but I feel affect us all. And I post to like minded people who care, and care about the same things I do, and the same way I care about them. We care about America!

You know, I'll probably get picked on again for posting this but so be it. As a friend told me, "It's like charging into Hell with a bucket of water, LOL, you go girl!"

It probably won't change anything but I had to get it off my chest.

I've read 1000X more than what I've written. Most lurk before the big plunge. The cross over point IMO is when you KNOW you can offer info or help on a topic. Then it's late nights and coffee...one more post, one more refresh to see if I have a ping...holy cow it's 4am!

Thank you for the link. Since I joined,I think a few days before the elections, I have become an addict. The family members keep saying:"Step Away from the keyboard..."But this is too much fun,and the level of information and depth of analysis is unmatched anywhere,certainly not achieved by the MSM measely little segments on anything and everything.And the wit.....Not to mention the downright silly like Dummies Funnies.

...we instead place ourselves onto the arena floor of the Colosseum.
Freepers, always "Ready to Rumble".

We post to discuss what the MSM is too pussy-footed to even touch with a ten foot pole.
We post to propose an alternative or aspect of things that the MSM is often too narrow-minded to even consider.
We post to prove that our thoughts are as advanced and as correct as those of the MSM and we're willing to get flamed trying to prove it, while they sit upon their thrones of glass and steel and dare not glance at or hear from the peons below.
We post to try and show that "the average American" isn't as stupid or as foolish as the MSM wish we were!

Just a few of my thoughts as to why, IMO, we post...
