I think it's a mistake to promote any idea of FR as a news source.

Humph. Great minds, I guess.

I get a very bad feeling about this ...

[Defender2]

CNN = Communists News Network, CBS = Communist Bull Sh*t, NBC = Nothing But Communists, ABC = All Bullsh*t Communists, MSNBC = Matthews Sucks Nothing But Communists, C-SPAN1 = Commies - SPAN1, C-SPAN2 = Commies - SPAN2, TBS = TASS Bull Sh*t, PBS = PRAVDA Bull Sh*t!!!! Fairweather(whichever way the wind blows, including O'Reilly)FOX sometimes ROCKS!!!! Mike Savage, Bob Dornan and The Mighty Maja Rushie, Rush Limbaugh, RULES the Airwaves(O'Reilly you only wish you were that good)!!!! FREE REPUBLIC IS THE BEST NEWS NETWORK!!!!:-)

[Psycho_Bunny]

Obviously a rigged poll. Democratic Underground isn't even listed.

[floriduh voter]

I just voted and Free Republic is up to 64%. Whether this is scientific or not, it shows where people on the internet who want the latest, most accurate news are going on their timetable, without having to watch that guy selling computer learning, etc.

[dalereed]

"Or does it also include articles that most liberal media won't print because they don't want the public to know?"

They tend to exclude those!!

[DoughtyOne]

Grin...

[John Robinson]

Hrm. That's an odd one, but I would have to rule out the double-oh angle.

Are you sure that it wasn't a really long "To" line, one truncated--note an ending ellipsis (...). If you see ellipses, there were more addressed people than could fit on the address line.

Also, there is an existing problem when posting comments to the same thread at the exact same time.

[Petronski]

Leaving this thread about a non-scientific, pushed poll on 'Breaking News' is a joke and beneath the dignity of FR.

[Diogenesis]

It is much more scientific than the Florida pseudo-recount.

[glock rocks]

Also, there is an existing problem when posting comments to the same thread at the exact same time.

i ran into that last night... funny thing is, their record for the post was in my self search.

i notice nita's search code (post 14, above) only pulls the "from" records when i put my name in it...

so, how does one search on the posts "to" himself?

[conservatism_IS_compassion]

That has to be nonsense. Fox can be fun but it is hardly the best source for news even - or I would say especially - news serious conservatives.

That statement does not compute; I'm tempted to reply, "All your base are belong to us."

It especially does not make sense if you suggest that it is or can be conservative to have a morbid curiousity about the very latest reports by charlatans whose business it is to entertain. To entertain, that is, with the pretense of informing.

[jrewingjr]

I was happy to see FR listed; that is the real story.

As far as FR being "above" this, relax, Mr. Hand. : ) At worst it is a tiny little celebration, a cyber poll version of toilet papering the trees - it doesn't hurt anything. Join in; grab a roll of paper yourself and give it a big throw.

[Snow Bunny]

You are so right my friend.Tah dah !!!!!!!!

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Hi Sweetie! Where else do you get the DNC spin (the actual article) followed by factual rebuttal including credible sources where available, acknowledgement of not-so-reliable sources plus FR experience and humor. Why are those AP DNC puff pieces called "news"? (^:

[thinden]

where's jackie sherrill when you really need him?

4 votes = more than you would have given them?

I guess you're not a demacrat. only 4 votes per person would be a pretty weak showing. :)
