I can't say that I see conspiracies in most of the places that Mike Rivero sees them, but I knew him back in the days before Free Republic was even a dream and think that he's an extremely bright and talented man. Much of the research done on the Clinton Administration scandals by people we know and respect, like the late Ed Zehr, was honed and developed through months of dialogue with Mike. He's not a person that I would dismiss lightly.

Yes, he is. You can disagree with his premisses and hypotheses but he is no dummy and anyone with any modicum of an open mind will read and decipher what they believe for themselves.

I agree, of course.

But something happened to MR, and it's not pretty.

Well I don’t see him the way you do. I see a very disturbing personality that seems to maliciously peddle lies to further what can only be an anarchistic agenda.

I agree, I liked MR and still miss his posts.

If you are lurking Mike,Greetings from "fleebag".

It's interesting you say that. I happen to agree. I used to argue with Mike over Christian issues / threads (he has.............................issues............................with the Lord), but I believe and always have believed that Michael has a good heart and is a bright guy. Do I buy all of his conspiracy theories? No. Do I buy a fair number of them? Any more...........have to say "yes", if sadly.

Frankly, Mike needs to be back here on FR. He was never dull.

I place credence on his OKC material since his docs have been verified and I will defend him on that.

As for blaming Bush for Sept. 11, forget it...that is nonsense.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Anyone know why this guy was banned? Or if he was?

[Conservative til I die]

Rivero's an idiot, plain and simple.

I just heard a couple of months ago that Ed Zehr of Washington Weekly passed on. Was it of natural causes?
