As usual, you were an excellent spokesperson for FR -thanks for being willing to endure that hotseat treatment.
Bill O'Reilly slandered Free Republic, Jim Robinson, you, me, and all who are longtime members and newbies alike. (I had to reregister tonight because have new puter and did not remember my password and my old email address for when I first registered in 1998 does not work now..,..) I am a MFJ veteran and a Freeper since 1998 and would not have stayed here if this were a "hate" website.....having witnessed zillions of zotted posts, deleted comments, and banned posters. Our moderators and Jim Rob do an excellent job of keeping this site "policed" - with the help of thousands of Freepers who do report abuse whenever necessary.
We do not like liberals much here. I myself do hate quite a few things, concepts, philosophies, and events.....So does Bill O'Reilly to his credit. He hates the easy way sexual predators are treated by many courts in this land and has worked to get Jessica's law passed in many state houses. His program tonight had as its first part the horrendous home invasion, assault, murder in Connecticut - which happened because the Connecticut parole board let out two career criminals against the recommendations of the sentencing Judges. Another good cause that Mr. O'Reilly has taken up and another view of his hatred of such insane treatment of career criminals which led to this and many more horrible crimes. So in that way, as outrage against injustice and horror, Free Republic does have "hatred" expressed here. So does Bill O'Reilly.
But the kind of "hate" spewed out by the likes of Democrats Underground and Daily Kos ....... is NEVER permitted here. Ideas are discussed of course. But hate spewing filth is NOT ACCEPTED.
I want a retraction from BOR because his comments in public were viewed by millions and will be quoted by others and many will "hear" about this "VERDICT" about FR by the "conservative" Fox network guy O'Reilly.
Lanny Davis evidently spewed just that very thing night before last and he speaks for Hitlary.
Retract it BOR - what you did is one of those unjust outrages that you fight against so often!
I just emailed O’Reilly and told him to RETRACT what he said!
