Judging from the number of posts on this board I'd say that illegal aliens is a major issue for a lot of people.

How many ways and how many times does it have to be said: FR is not representative of the real world OR the GOP.

And there's not as many of "them" here as you think; they just post to each other about it 24/7/365. They've been saying the same things to the same people for years.

Some issues are different. This illegal alien thing is (I believe) a very big deal for a lot of people. You can sense it in the tone of the posts. Fer instance, there is a lot less rote name calling and cliches used in the posts. Folks are very emotional about it.

Looks like this is the thread where your bile towards conservatives finally completely boils over.

I'd have to say you do not know FR. The posts here are as varied as is the news - that which we comment on and that which we make (aka Dan Rather fake docs) and that we report hours ahead of the regular media (Shuttle disaster and extent of Katrina damage).

Have not checked your FR credentials but can I just ask, how long have you been posting on FR?

>>How many ways and how many times does it have to be said: FR is not representative of the real world OR the GOP. <<

I remember certain Freepers were saying this exact thing when the FR polls showed that people were opposed to the disastrous Harriet Miers nomination.

There were certain Freepers (I won't mention names) who staunchly defended the nomination prior to it being scrapped, and lashed out at those who opposed the nomination as not being a true representation of the GOP or America.

What a laugh that turned out to be, eh?
