"Now the media is going to cover this story. There are some folks here, especially last night that owe some of us here who questioned this whole story an apology. We were called trolls and BO plants quite a few times last night. You know who you are.

Yes they do. And what bothers me more than receiving the insults was knowing that the rhetoric last night can be used to discredit Free Republic. Some of the talk last night was really nasty. A few us us tried to get it toned down and got blasted for it.

Completely agree with you. That was the main thrust of my arguments last night, which seemed to have been lost on many folks. In that respect, I'm certainly not glad to be correct about withholding my support for this young woman.
