DC Chapter To Help Our FRiend, Linda Tripp -- Here's How You Can Help, Too -- Thread #2

DC Chapter of Free Republic | December 15, 2001 | Angelwood

[Ligeia]

Hey, Everyone! I left the DC Chapter Christmas get-together just a little early -- before the bill was presented. I've just learned that everyone at the party put in just a little extra to make sure there would be plenty to cover the costs of our great meal.

When all accounting was done and the generous tip included, there was $70 left over. A vote was taken and it was decided to send this amount to Linda Tripp.

From the DC Chapter to Linda -- MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Great idea! I left early also, and should have stayed as the Free Republic dinner was a much better group than the one I joined. Merry Christmas, Linda!

Linda Tripp though she may have helped us against Clinton was just a scumbag fat dyke who betrayed him and Monica for money I shudder to think of anyone on FR calling her a friend.

You're sick, you really are.

You don't seem very comfortable talking about Linda Tripp. You want to change the issue? Once more, If President Bush Sr. and President Bush Jr. both had dim view of her as a person, would you regard them as unreasonable? I'm not seeing the issue here if we both agree on the facts but place different weight on the items in her plus column or on the items in her minus column. Are you thinking that there is a further issue here that we disagree about, or are you just registering your discomfort that someone might have a reasonable view that's not your own?

How much did an unemployed GS-15 (as of January 20, 2001) make this year

Probably nothing. I only posted the link for reference material.

I gave $300 to the Linda Tripp Legal Fund in 2001, I wasn't knocking her. You have me confused with ConsistentLibertarian.

You don't support Linda...that's fine by me, but you have another agenda here. It's obvious to everyone that your only reason for being on this thread is to smear Linda.

The purpose of this thread is to alert those who do support Linda how they can help and where to send their donations. You're the one who's off-course, not me.

Thanks for the bump.

[IVote2]

Can you provide me with the exact quotes from a published national source that Linda Tripp did indeed leak this about George Bush, SR?

Not something from a FR thread, as it's obvious that some people have another agenda and feel free to post and repost erroneous information with no regard for the true facts.

I have NEVER seen anything to suggest that Linda leaked this about #41.

Please proved legitimate sources to my question. Published please.

"Linda Tripp though she may have helped us against Clinton was just a scumbag fat dyke who betrayed him and Monica for money I shudder to think of anyone on FR calling her a friend."

I'd be proud to call Linda Tripp a friend. I'd give her a job in a minute if I had one to give her.

It's easy to call someone a name and be proud of it I suppose, but since Linda is none of the above, it has to be that you are talking about someone else.

FYI, Linda despite all the propaganda is not writing a book, has made zero money from her disclosures. Someday when historians without a leftist, ultra-liberal agenda will write the true story about Linda Tripps brave deeds. She will be seen as the heroine she truly is.

Hopefully someone out there will find her a valuable employee and hire her.

Just don't talk to her on the phone.Nobody likes a rat.

Thanks for bumping by. It's funny how folks like you feel the need to namecall someone who busted up a scheme to commit perjury and obstruct justice by the President of the United States. It says something about your character, specifically the lack thereof, to say such a thing.

[ironman]

Like I said in my post #22, she didn't make $100K/year as you claimed in post #7.

This thread is an embarrassment..could you please delete it.

Thanks, evad

Assume that Mrs. Tripp had "exposed" GHWB in a way that benefited bILLclinton and that she was fired on the last day of GHWB's administration. Does anyone doubt that bILLclinton would have immediately returned her to the federal payroll? And the media would have cheered him on!! This is another example of Republicans not standing up for whistleblowers. Similarly, Attorney General Ashcroft has blocked various investigations into the illegalities of bILLclinton. Why? Is there something that the Democrats can expose regarding Ashcroft?

[IVote2]

Isn't it amazing to see liberals use McCarthyite tactics on someone to completely trash their being?

It might be disquieting to us to read posts from those without the slightest bit of compassion for another human being, but in amongst the ugly there are jewels.

If this thread is pulled, it's my feeling that the negative posters win.

My hope is that it will inspire those with open hearts will reach out to Linda one way or another.

Regards, Jen

I do admire Linda Tripp but I don't understand her decision to get a facelift instead of saving her home? Anyone, anyone?

You're implying she paid for the facelift. Did she?

Also, when Hollywood and SNL is out there saying you're ugly every ten seconds, I could understand the accepting a free facelift.

The Clintonistas used riddicle to great effect.

[evad]

My hope is that it will inspire those with open hearts will reach out to Linda one way or another.

I would hope that too. My problem with this tread is that it has degenerated to a battle in the gutter between various sniping factions arguing over each other's hygiene habits. I feel that type of correspondence probably belongs somewhere else...I like to think Free Republic deserves better.

[T'wit]

Thanks and blessings, Angel. It's the least we can do to repay a brave woman who spoke for us all. Sweet Christmas to y'all!

[Fred Mertz]

Merry Christmas to y'all too!

I wish Linda Tripp would write the book.

[3D-JOY]

I agree,

I checked this for real information and it is, instead, a very unpleasant thread.

If it is not pulled, why not just all refuse to discuss unpleasant topics?

Bump for Linda!
