Hey! What about Free Republic? Don't you like us anymore?

Here's how President Obama's head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs Cass Sunstein, describes FreeRepublic.com: "'group polarization,' where people segregate themselves so effectively online with other like-minded thinkers that they create an echo chamber where the group's worst and most malevolent opinions get reinforced and strengthened."

What an awesome quote. Thanks very much for linking to it.

The irony, of course, is even in our little echo chamber of "like-minded thinkers," there is an incredible range of thought and opinion. I mean, my God: we have "loserdopians" and the "Christian Taliban" playing in the same ballpark here.

Wow - that brought back some memories! FR had just grown quite a bit in the previous months due to the 2000 election. The socialists were alarmed.

Face it Will, Cass Sunstein is just not that into us

Cross fingers he continues to think of us as trivial gnats
