FR is needed now more than ever! We're over the target! bombs away!

[Zuben Elgenubi]

You da man!

[Christie at the beach]

Thank you for all that you do, Jim.

You’re one of my heroes.

Don't know who Lee Fang is, but he has no clue as to what the phrase "right wing" really means. Anyway: Kudos to you sir!

Jim, your site is God’s will working through your life.

Lee Fang

Fang was an intern with ThinkProgress and also a researcher for Progressive Accountability. As an undergraduate, Fang also interned for Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-OH), for the activist watchdog outfit Media Matters and for the lobbying firm Westin Rinehart.. Fang has been a critic of Islamophobia of American right-wing evangelicals.

As an investigative blogger for CAPAF’s Think Progress blog, Fang took a hit for secretly coordinating his coverage with Democrat-aligned special interest groups. Fang continued his questionable reporting methods after joining the Republic Report alongside convicted felon Jack Abramoff soon after his release from prison.

As Elvis would say,

Thank you, thank you very much.

Dalton reasoned that because conservatives philosophically embrace ideological loyalty and are generally more comfortable with authoritarian, top-down communication, they would never really harness the potential of new media.

Are you kidding me, Lee? Get 100 conservatives to agree on something. It's like herding cats. We're independent thinkers. The left is all about top down. Union leadership and the "progressive" elites run the show. PCU on college campuses. Conform or be cast out.

I have two (2) t-shirts from the "March for JUSTICE" in Washington D.C., October 31, 1998.

Maybe collectors items...but I still regularly wear them.

“errors ceasing to be dangerous when it is PERMITTED FREELY TO CONTRADICT THEM”

With the right to do so, comes the RESPONSIBILITY to do so.

Fang has done some interesting Norquist inquiry. I’ve quoted him a couple times lately.

Ruffini observed that progressive blogs did actual research and reporting while most conservative bloggers were “generally commentators and not reporters."

Thanks for your "commentary" on Dan Rather, Buckhead. ;p

Fox News is NOT “rightwing”

this author is insane

[grey_whiskers]

Late to the thread as usual, Jim.

Good to see you getting credit...illegitimi non carborundum (Don't let the bastards wear you down!)

Cheers!

“almost solely on new ways to communicate their old ideas.”

They say that as if it were a BAD thing.

[tanknetter]

Instead of finding new solutions to public policy problems or seriously reevaluating Bush’s failures, conservatives focused almost solely on new ways to communicate their old ideas.

It's interesting that the writer conveys this with a decidedly negative tone. Yet it's EXACTLY what the Dems have done in the last 10-15 years. Manipulate language to make their old, Socialist/Marxist ideas palatable to the public.

Article is a case study in projection.

The single best example of this is how the positive-sounding term "Progressive" has now replaced the neutral sounding "Liberal" in how they describe themselves and their policies.

Secrets of the conservative media machine >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Simple secret. We tell the truth regardless of PC requirements.

Some lioberals are so PC that they actually live in their own self created UTOPIAN reality that is completely dysfunctional and unbcivilized.

Thats our secret, not to buy into the PC alternate reality espoused by the left and used by Obama to manipulate and control them.

[M Kehoe]

Hi guy. I hope you're doing well.

Fox News couldn’t be more right-wing...

Ah, not so much.

***Free Republic provided a platform for conservatives to share conspiratorial perspectives and to organize their own rallies and event***

These folks - Salon, MSNBC, NYT, Democrap Party, etc. - are Stalinists, Jim; sooner or later the conservatives on FR and elsewhere are going to realize that the chances of winning our country back at the ballot box is diminishing, along with truthful elections. We are in a terminal battle for the very survival of Western Civilization!!!

We will get little help from New England, New York, California, Illinois, Michigan, Oregon, Washington [state]... probably more.

Also, Obama's Marxism has put so many people on the government dole that they cannot afford to stand up against the government take-over of freedom.

Gird your loins, FReepers... we are in a real battle; if we lose we will cease to exist as individuals... we will be property of the state [Stalin!]
