Howlin, peach, and their followers were drawn out by the anti-Rudy comments. But let’s not pretend that’s where it all began. They had a long history of abusing FReepers. They went to anti-FReeper sites (some of which they created themselves) and said some truly vile things about Jim Robinson, John Robinson, and various FReepers. At FR, they sucked up to anyone they thought they could get anything from, even though they had said really disgusting things about those same people at their anti-FReeper sites.
I don’t know who John Robinson is, and I don’t know what for what purpose any of those older Freepers could have “sucked up” to anyone. What would they get out of it?
I don’t remember anything nasty coming from Peach, Howlin, Area 51 or Cincinnatus’s Wife before the anti-Rudy or anti Mormon threads. The Jihadists on those threads wouldn’t let anyone have any legitimate discussion, and I blame them for giving us John McCain. There was a time when those anti-Mormon threads would not have been allowed on FreeRepublic.
Howlin could be a little forceful when she disagreed with you, but she didn’t really get personal. FreeRepublic just isn’t the same without the old Freepers. I would really like to have some of Cincinnatus’ Wife’s threads on Chavez right about now.
The Menopause Mafia and their minion Stinkie, etc...it's a free country, they can go where JR wants em.
I'm ignoring them. I haven't forgotten them or some of the Clowns or some of the WA or some of the Darwins or wherever antiFreepers go to hide and trashtalk.
It's moderate conservatives like most of them that are the reason we now have to support McCain or just give up.
They weren't called Harpies for nothing. That they now come back tail tween legs after their repeat hissy fits over losing their way here shows how weak minded they are. Like High School girls........."Heathers". The crap they spewed on their Salt River about folks here was so vile they had to try and hide it.
