And, whatever else you do, please DO NOT post from DEMOCRATS UNDERGROUND (or any other such trashy un-American socialist hangout). Free Republic was intended to be a socialist free zone. We've gone to a heck of a lot of trouble to make it that way. Why in the world would you think we would be interested in having their trash posted here?

Thank you! I am so sick of seeing these posts. I swear that the people posting those threads are doing so just to increase the hit rate at DU.

I think I'm going to put my mouth in my foot here, but I love vanities!

For me, FR is yoga on the net.

I unwind, have fun, and sometimes contribute.

That said, I certainly have to agree with Jim on the below.

"Way too many vanity threads lately. And way too much trash being posted. Please try to stay on topic (politics)."

Should I be one of the culprits, humble apologies.
