The point of the born on date bit is that we get a wash of DU trolls and Paultards running around here spouting off nutsoid things that make conservatives look like idiots.

Things like the 16th Amendment, a law of the books for nearly 100 years, wasn't ratified for example.

Those folks have a short shelf life, especially when they get saucy with the sane and conservative members of FR.

Anyways, do you really think if that was a viable argument you, Ron Paul and the other conspiracy types are the first ones to realize it since 1913 and will now single handeled make it null and void.

Crackpot will not save this land, conservatism, based in reality and working with in the realm of the possible, will.

While it can be true that some just join a site to stir up trouble, like liberal shills hired by the Obama admin, there are also legitimate conservatives who have been reading Free Republic for many years and have just now decided to join in the good fight online, as it were. To lump all newcomers into the "DU" catagory is not only insulting to those who may be your allies, but foolish, because you would be alienating a kindred warrior.

As I said earlier, someone either has legitiamte points to make or they don't. And their join date is irrelevant to that purpose.
