I’m with you Jim.
Jim, there is such a bounty of truth, wisdom, courage, and plain, good old fashioned American cussedness in that post, I hardly know where to point my appreciation.
As others have said, this community stands as the real vanguard of all that our forefathers fought, bled, sacrificed, and died to bequeath to us. I can’t tell you how proud I am to count myself among such fine patriots as these - and to call you my friend.
God bless you for your unwavering support of the ideals which made America the greatest nation ever known.
I vehemently support every premise, every word presented! Cheers!
Jim, God Bless you and amen!
Thank you, Jim.
I have been concerned for some time about the outright anti-Christian bigotry being voiced by some on Free Republic. It's your site and your rules, so except for the worst of the stuff I've mostly kept quiet. I was aware of the existence of anti-Freeper sites, but since I have limited time, I don't monitor those sites and did not realize this was getting organized by people with a stated agenda.
It is really good to see you say this (and similar things on other threads) putting teeth in the officially stated purpose of Free Republic. Mission statements are good things, but unless enforced, they don't keep organizations from drifting into other paths.
Lots of conservative organizations which were once faith-friendly have, over the years, been co-opted by libertarians or other people who, to their credit, do share some parts of the conservative agenda. Unfortunately, they combine some good conservative ideas with anti-religious views. We have a major problem among young conservatives today who have bought into the appeal of immorality and wickedness and justify it with conservative rhetoric of "get the government out of my bedroom and my personal life."
You deserve compliments for not letting that agenda run things here.
actually it is pretty clever. you ban a thread where humblegunner says all kinds of bizarre things 95% of your viewership would find repulsive.
Then you post a support thread for him, while purging the thread where he said all the weird stuff you support or at least support his ability to say on your forums.
Now you purge the support thread (too many reposts of post #9?) and post a war on something totally else from the original topic.
The telling factor is that you are PURGING and DELETING threads and posts. You cannot stand actual examination by those you exhort to fund you and support you.
Been here since 1999 and I have never had an opinion about site management, but I sure as hell have one now.
Hear! Hear!
