The tone on FR is very demoralized. Liberals and their media unfortunately have succeeded in demoralizing a large number of freepers. From their constant savage attacks on the President and the Republican Party with lies and distortions, to their biased polls, to blaming the President for everything under the sun, many freepers are feeling very demoralized. They are further demoralized because President Bush is not fighting back, because the RINOS in Congress are screwing thing up for the President agenda. Add to that a huge numbers of trolls who infiltrated FR in 2004 and 2005 to divide and demoralize by creating doom and gloom, and piling on the President and the GOP.
So what are the solutions for the demoralization problem?
(1) Stop the knee jerk reaction every time the liberal media write an article telling us that President Bush and the GOP are finished. Stop taking every biased poll as the end of all. No doubt that the President approval is down but no doubt that the polls are so biased to take 6 or 7 points more from his approval numbers. Never before we have had so many polls coming in an off election year and the reason for this is very simple. The media is doing all these biased polls to demoralize the Republican base and it is succeeding to some degree as we see from the knee jerk reaction of many freepers. The media is taking any event that is happening and distort it with the most negative spin to demoralize us. Rather than falling for the media lies, distortions and very negative spin we must take anything they write or say turn it around on them and destroy all their lies and spin.
(2) Ask the White House to fight back the lies and distortions of liberal and their media whores. How do we do this? Demand replacing Scott Maclelan? Besides new junkies like us how many people listen to Scott Maclelan? Ask the President to hold a press conference every week to expose the lies liberals and their media? Do you want the President to spend his time fighting every lie and distortion made by liberals and their media? How can we guarantee that the media will cover what the President is saying or what any of his spoke people are saying? Can they just ignore what is he saying?
(3) Put pressure on the RINOS to stop screwing the President agenda. How do we do this? Ask the White to twist their arms? What if the RINOS say to the White House Screw you? Ask the GOP leadership in Congress to twist their arms? What if the RINOS also tell them Screw you?
(4) Purge the trolls who infiltrated FR in large numbers in 2004 and 2005. These trolls are not necessarily someone who spread Dummy crap on FR. They put on a phony conservative mask and bash the President and the GOP on every occasion. Their main goal is to divide and demoralize. Their job is to spread doom and gloom. Purging these guys can stop a lot of the infighting and the demoralization that is going on. We need to report these trolls to the mods and do not let them get away with this.
Although I agree with you that their ideas are ridiculous and killing this country, what good is a forum discussion if everyone is saying the same thing?
Besides that, if we let more trolls in, maybe we can make them believe that what they say is unpatriotic, anti-american hogwash and a few of them will join us. Trolls vote, too.
Bull Crap!
I took a few minutes out of my day to send an e-mail, for what it's worth to my Republican senator. Not sure if he's doing anything at all, but at least I expressed my dissatisfaction at what isn't being done by the administration and our elected state representatives.
Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't Worry - Be Happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it Double
Don't Worry - Be Happy
Ain't got no place to lay your head,
somebody came and took your bed
Don't Worry, Be Happy
The landlord say your rent is late,
he may have to litigate
Don't Worry - Be Happy
Ain't got not cash, ain't got no style,
ain't got no gal to make you smile
Don't Worry - Be Happy
Cause when you worry your face will frown
and that will bring everybody down
Don't Worry - Be Happy
I heard a few minutes ago..that the House is in recess because the Republican leaders are talking to those that are determined NOT to pass the spending reduction bill...
THOSE are the ones that are also against ANWR and offshore drilling...
They are supposed to vote today...so we will know soon enough who they are...
You sound like a winer. With a post having so little to do with anything specific except to attack anyone who does not buy into your views 100%...You are causing more disunity on your own. And you are insulting JR and the Mods. IHMO
Beer....
Beer and 2 bananas!
Johnnie Walker Black, two fingers, no ice. Large mellow cigar. Listen to Rush and laugh. Go out tonight and play texas hold'em. Make love. Talk to friends about football. Enjoy everyday.
Either you forgot to put a sarcasm tag on your comment or maybe you are reading the wrong threads? I have read more threads than I care to count where folks are posting doom 'n gloom comments, out and out depression has been quite obvious. Some posters even threaten to vote for Dems next time (perhaps some of them ARE trolls). Yeppers, it's sick, but I'm telling you, I've seen it and it's not an illusion.
Maybe in your opinion. I just see a lot of angry and fired up freepers and that is good.
Beginning to feel the quilt?
Love your tagline!
A better solution is "wait 4 days."
I am not whining. I am telling you what I feel. Am I disappointed? Damn right I am. The spinless Republicans have dissappointed me tremendously.
I come to Free Republic to share my feelings with other conservatives. When these feelings are good, you will know how I and others feel.
Now you're saying to stop pissing and moaning on Free Rebublic so as I don't upset anyone and to raise morale. But how will others get the trend created by Rep's if I don't include the bad with the good?
Your message tells me 'if I am going to post on FR, just do the positive and hide the negative'.
To you I say "Bull$hit - REJECTED! Resubmit in 30 days for final disapproval..."
I sure hope Hannity is right. I really don't want to have to drive into town today to get some more toddy fixin's. LOL
