Remember .. a lot of these really old timers who do the attacking are from the Pat Buchanan and McCain groups. They are frustrated because they have no political power - they don't agree with NORMAL conservatives - so they just like to pick fights for amusement.

That's a good point. I've never figured out why posters who have been on FR since 1998 think everyone is supposed to agree with them simply because they have been here since the beginning.

We have weathered this before - and we will again - that's what conservatism is all about.

And .. if people think this is bad - they should have been here in 2000 when Bush was running for President - WHOA! It was gruesome. But what I told everybody - is what I learned from that experience.

If I would have registered with FR when I first happened upon it in early December of '97, not only would you have to agree with everything I say, you'd also be required to LOL at all my stupid jokes.

The handful that are registered in Nov. '97 require you to ROTFLMAO at their silly antics and anything Jim Rob posts that hints at humor requires that you ROTFLMAOWPIP.
