BS !!!

If George Bush doesn't pull his head out of his a*s pretty quick the tide of public opinion will flip irrevocably against this war and then all hell will break loose.

Drudge is SO yesterday's news. There are at least a dozen blogs that make drudge look like warmed over oatmeal.

To bad Rush hasn't figured that out yet. I think half his stack of stuff consists of his laptop open to Drudge while he does his show.

I agree with you. I love Free Republic, but the mods are far too quick to zot. Opposing opinions, the stupider the better, should be aired out here and shown for what they are: STUPID. Offensive language? Sure, remove it. But an offensive opinion? Let the fools reveal themselves.

Does this site not adhere to the Americans with Disabilities or Stupidity law? Have we become so elitist that opposing opinions are Zottable offenses?

You're right, I just get ticked off at the overly pessimistic.

Great tagline btw. I read that post and it was great. That's why I disagree with the negative thoughts.

How much does a full page ad in that local Crawford paper cost? I mean it. We should reprint it using Scott Ott as the author as an open letter to Ms. Sheehan and her supporters and sign it by the people who are paying for it. Whatdaya think? It'll be cheap, but I guarantee it'll be picked up by the National Media. At least Fox!

If it's as a cheap as I think it will be, I will pay for it myself. If JIMROB and Scott Ott will allow, we'll sign it FREEREPUBLIC.COM. We would have to at fast, any comments?

Does anyone know how I can get in touch with Scott Ott. I'm serious. A full page ad in that horrible Iconoclast is less than $400. I will pay for it. If he retools the letter in his own hand I would like to pay to have it published as a full page ad in the Crawford paper made out of Cindy Sheehan and her supporters. But we have to act quickly. I went to Scrappleface website and couldn't find a direct email address for him. Any ideas?

As to the ultimate pipe dream you talk about; that ended FOREVER with the fall of the Ottoman empire.

I think it's a good "letter" and would love for it to be read more widely.

Er......I would have if "scappleface" had been part of the headline in News/Activism - yet - it was not, making it appear a legimate story about a draft letter from Bush to Sheenan.

My complaint is only that people scanning the headlines in News/Activism will come away with the idea that Bush did author a letter to her. Not everybody reads each and every article they see appear in News/Activism. A disclaimer should have appeared in the headline since it was NOT NEWS but an article PRETENDING to be a letter from Bush to Sheehan.

Gee - get a grip. Or, has the mainstream media changed your view of reporting "NEWS".

What does that have to do with any of my comments?

My point was that although the letter is very good - it should not have been shown in News/Activism without the Scappleface identification as part of the title because otherwise it is misleading people that just scan the headlines.

Bush did not write a letter to Sheenan - but the headline makes it appear he did. Only if they read the comments and understand the "scappleface" source would they understand this was a "hoped" letter.
