I believe that there used to be a model of free discussion here. But, the number of zots over opinion as opposed to violation of posting rules gives credence to those who say that this model has ceased to exist.

You know that I speak my mind. What you don't know is that I have received well over a dozen messages in the past two years from freepers who said that they were afraid to post similar opinions for fear of being zotted.

That's the fact of it...many long-time freepers do not feel "free" to discuss. I believe that the pendulum will swing back but in the mean-time FR will lose good people.

Strange, you and I both signed up on September 15, 2001. Here a decade later you and I are left sharing the same feeling. Opinion is not welcome here anymore. I've received probably 50 personal emails because people were afraid of posting FReepmails, that's how frightened they were.

After seeing so many of their friends who were here from the start went through Clinton, Bush/Gore, 9/11, Gary Condit, Dan Rather, Kerry/Bush to this...

When I started seeing people actively shill for Obama after Tuesday, I warned that 95% of loyal donating FReepers would leave. I was only trashed by those same people trying to get me banned. Dirtbag the most hateful person towards Sarah Palin is allowed to roam free threatening everyone he comes across but folks who have been loyal to this website and our mission are shown the door, simply outrageous.

The sad fact as many of the folks at the top know David Axelrod has had moles here for years waiting for 2012 to shill for Barack Obama and like Grima Wormtongue in Lord of the Rings, whisper in the King's ear about anyone saying that they will vote AGAINST Obama!!! Oh and outrageous bigots are roaming free as well, I'm pretty sure Colofornian is responsible for atleast 500 - 1000 FReepers leaving as they don't like to be associated with bigots.

I 100% agree with what you said. The fact of the matter is if people are openly supporting Obama(and I’ve seen the cheerleading myself here which is disgusting) on this site and that’s OK with the powers that be..... then sadly this site is doomed. It will become a smaller and smaller echo chamber. No true conservative would ever want marxist Obama to have another four years. No one is worse than him, NO ONE!

I agree with you about FReepers leaving because of the vile non-stop religious bigotry which has mushroomed here.

There should be no place on a conservative political website for holier-than-thou cliques of wackos whose SOLE PURPOSE for being on the website is to trash the religions of other conservatives. Let them take their venom to an anti-Mormon or anti-Catholic website which wallows in such hatred. I’m disappointed that they are allowed here.
