Free Republic has just emerged from a crisis in which it very nearly took the wrong path to its own destruction.

This forum has the potential to be a profound influence on America's political culture. It can only fulfill that potential if it lives its conservatism as well as preaches it. That means that we must never be afraid to confront liberal ideas with real conservative principles.

Every time we veer off onto a jihad of ZOT we are effectively telling the world we are afraid to contest liberal lies with our conservative principles. We must never duck the contest of ideas.

One can only hope that we have learned something from our recent experience.

Yes, as you are aware, you have the wrong poster, my handle says:
