I'm a Democratic-leaning independent voter that has lurked on the site for some time. Although I don't agree with the viewpoints of many here, I've learned quite a bit from the research necessary to fairly appreciate both sides of the issue. Pretty much the same reason I listen to Hannity and Rush.
I also belong to DailyKos but likewise rarely find myself in lockstep agreement with the left, either, on any issue. I'd be the first one to admit that both sides often have valid points. I just wish politicians would do a better job of acknowledging that, instead of unmercifully demonizing the other side in playing to their constituencies.
Hopefully, questions I ask along the way may enlighten other non-conservatives who occasionally browse FreeRepublic.
It's been over 5 hours and you haven't responded even once.
I smell ozone.
Troll ozone.
I got booted from Kos after one post. It was polite like yours, but disagreed with them.
Maybe he’s trolling for fresh material.

I see you are not very bright.
Patting myself on the back :)
In the past I would have welcomed you. However after seeing the behavior of DFL’ers in Minnesota recently - vandalizing cars, and even going as far as committing acts of arson against those who do not subscribe to Stalinism, I would have to say IBTZ.
Renounce Leftism and all its lies.

Welcome to FR. I hope you enjoy your stay.
Welcome. And post something else. Try commenting on a thread that’s not yours.
I would think if I want to better understand the rationale behind various conservative viewpoints, I’m in precisely the correct forum.
Thanks, Mary!
LOL, will do. I respectfully disagree on various issues with many there, as no doubt will be the case here as well.
ROFL, Thanks dighton.
I’ll do that tomorrow.
Seven hours and you’re still here. Congratulations and welcome!
Frankly, you’re fulla bull!
Free Republic exists for three reasons. To advance conservatism, promote conservative candidates and to defend the Constitution.
Appreciating liberalism, is not one of the goals of this forum.
How about these photos Edwards...
Perhaps some enterprising FReeper will submit these photos to his website, or the letter sent to the Gold Star Mom, saying they hoped that every memorial day she would feel the grief of the loss of her son
