Does Free Republic and Jim Robinson ban those who disagree with them? asks The Conservative Voice.
Most all of the posters seek "Anonymity" when replying to the question raised on The Conservative Voice website: Is Free Republic Biased?
Nathan Tabor, Senior Editor and webmaster, moderates this running "Topic of the Day" and everyday discussion.
One "Anonymous" poster writes: "Re: Is Free Republic Biased? Biased? Well, since the site is dominated by paid party operatives and federal employees who allow no dissent from the Bush regime's latest political propaganda releases, you could say that it's more a solid, one way amen corner for the neoconservative cabal than a biased website."
Still another "Anonymous" poster writes:"Re: Is Free Republic Biased? They banned me for complaining about losing my career to outsourcing. They taunted and gloated with perverse kitty pictures, infantile cartoons, and guttural remarks that reveal their mentality.The flames fanned by their hatred are now licking at their heels."
ALIPAC also posts the subject: Conservative Website FREE REPUBLIC Mutinies over Bush Comments" and notes: "With reports coming in from around the nation of a split in the conservative base over the Bush amnesty and open borders plans, the nations most frequented conservative website erupted into a mutiny against Bush policies on Thursday. This article below elicited the response. Please take the time to read this article and the comments of many conservatives that are dismayed by Bush's statements about the Minuteman Project on FreeRepublic.com As many of you know, Free Republic had made previous efforts to control the debate by purging immigration reform users."
What seems to be a fledgling conservative based site, The Conservative Voice appears to seek readership through indexed forums dedicated to the Mother Bird herself, Free Republic. If you were wondering what happens to those little birds that fall or are kicked out of the FR nest (which I know you do not, but makes my play on words work); you might find some of them under the Free Republic Indexed forums over on The Conservative Voice.
LOL!
"since the site is dominated by paid party operatives and federal employees "
I'm glad the party hacks are here, they get beat upside the head pretty regular. If they are here, then there is a chance to influence them. For example, on immigration, they must be getting the message that they need to be walking on eggshells.
I like to think I'm pretty balanced.
I hold the mouse with my right-hand, but I mostly left-click.
Dittos. Me thinks that some of these anonymous posters couldn't articulate their positions w/o getting ugly, hence the banning.
At any rate, some of the whiners sound similar to the John Kerry "bring it on - mommy make them stop!" camp.
"Now get out zere and zmack a liberal!"
Physically or intellectually? Pictures please.
I weel, I weel, I mean I will, I will!!!!!!
I disagree with Bush on a couple of issues, immigration and spending foremost.
I've never been banned either, but that's also because I'm not a racist, a disruptor, or a foul-mouthed wingnut.
That'll get you banned every time.
Perhaps you have recently perverted a forum I came to, long before you, to engage in commonsense discussion, not nonsense. Grow up, it's not all about you and comfort fantasies.
And don't forget the "proudlly paid to post since --"
LOL. And true!
As a side note; if you haven't seen The Incredibles you should. I kept telling my wife "it's a stinkin' cartoon" but it is funny and it zmacks liberalism over the head with a sledgehammer. The best part is kids love it and liberal parents can't say "no" to their kids. They had umpteen zillion copies of it at the video store here in ultra-liberal Montpelier and we still had to wait to rent it. Michael Moore, meet Mr. Incredible!
I have already lived for a long time, perhaps you can too if you don't get so loose your head falls off.

"But vee all know zee flame of truth burns from vissin, dawling, zere iss no vay to avoid it."
Rave on; but, I will no longer wish view the results of this particular psychotic episode of yours.
Rather than getting a check, I find myself SENDING a check every freepathon.... why doesn't he say that?
I would LOVE to get paid for being here.... what a DUmmy
So in other words, you don't frequent DU....
