Ferret, you I like. You I have always liked. Keep on keeping on brother.

I once was idley toying with the idea of starting a forum with a lefty -- not to compete with Free Republic, but to compliment it -- and I approached the only lefty I knew from FR, a fellow by the name of Eschoir.

Well, it turns out that Eschoir was one cylinder short of a Mack truck. He was unstable and more interested in destroying than in building.

But you I would consider working with. For now, just show that you can stay unbanned. :o) Be on our side. :o)

But later on, maybe I will approach JohnRob for a license for a copy of the software and we can have a go at it.

JohnRob: Or maybe ferret and I can grab one of those 'sub forums' you were discussing......

Now there's an excellent idea.

What was your first clue?

But you (tree-dweller ferret mike) I would consider working with. For now, just show that you can stay unbanned. :o) Be on our side. :o)

The Laz and Ferret show. Wonderful.

JohnRob: Or maybe ferret and I can grab one of those 'sub forums' you were discussing...

It would be nice to think you were kidding, but no, evidently not...

Let me direct your attention to the common thead running through all this -- profoundly abysmal decision making.

And have you done for conservatism. You haven't done a damn thing except dump on who should be your allies(unless you are a democrap which wouldn't suprise me).

You got too much time on your hands.

Maybe it will suck. But let's let the market decide.

I mean, who knew 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' would make it?

But I hear your message, I.T.: I guess we won't be sending you a Neilson book.

Z2 is a self-described liberal and an AntiFreeper. He is known on other forums as Lord of the Flies.

The part I get the biggest laugh out of, is when the AF;ers P@#^ and moan about FRNetwork as a spinoff for financial shenanagens(sp).

Has any of them ever worked in politics with advocacy groups? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out. There is MCRGO, MCRGO Foundation, and MCRGO-PAC. Those are three different entities. MCRGO is the main group and a non profit corporation. MCRGO Foundation is a 501c3. MCRGO-PAC is a political action committee. It's a normal thing that many political groups do. That's all this is. Big flippin' deal. Each group has their purpose.

I've seen what they both sides had to say, and from what I've seen, there is NO EVIDENCE of any BS that goes on here. I'm the treasurer of a PAC, and also a political campaign. I have a good idea of what is going on, and it's all legit.

Yeah, they really are like the villains at the end of every Scooby Doo epiosode...."if it wasn't for that meddling Jim Robinson and all those pesky freepers, our plans would have WORKED, too!".

Thanks for this thread, it's the ultimate Scooby snack!

The story Rush told about her parents was too funny. I got the sense that they had something to do with her backing down also...and to her credit, she did.

HI !

I don't think ads are a good idea. I hate getting on a website, and being deluged with ADS, OFFERS. Then the cookies your system has to eat !

Keep that brain thinking, you may come up with a better suggestion.

Laz, I'm pretty sure this isn't your ferret. You owe this ferret an apology for harming his reputation that way.
