I like Hannity. When he said that tonight, I hoped that I heard him wrong.

This is a sad day for FR. And, it’s a wake-up call for all of us to do some soul searching for what cause we are serve with our posts here on Free Republic.

Fellow Freepers, let’s keep it the best site on the Internet.

Sean, consider this constructive criticism instead of an attack. Rush has stuck with his stack of stuff, and you should stick with the lexus-nexus searches.

I used to love listening to Sean bury the liberal idiocy of the day with his extensive research. Nowadays it seems more like he is trying to just increase his popularity with people, except for his position on immigration. Not surprisingly this is very similar to 50% or so FReepers who want to make the Rebub. party more popular by hijacking democrap policies, including immigration. We'll have to just keep arguing and bashing each other until all precincts report in. We will then know who was right, but will we be able to recognize it and come back together again with a unified conservative platform? My guess is we will, sort of.

I'm stopping @400 because Sean seems to have made his point . I'll go out to top off the cat's trough 's . Lock the caddy and oust the lights in the garden .

Double check the safety of wing's , then add a blankie to her .

After I fix her hair as she tenderly sleeps ; her subtle smile does not escape me .

Say good night to somebody ..

I have never heard anything bad about Sean Hannity, especially on FreeRepublic.

Free speech is about free expression of ones opinions , thoughts and ideas. The freedom to criticize.

If we supress , opine , and ridicule others right and freedom to criticize , then we have no right to criticize about ONE thing , EVER , ABOUT ANYTHING .Do we want totalitarianism within the Republican Party ?

The amount of criticism one Party gets from it's own ought to be a humble measure to those in office about the need to change . If not , then what is the opposite of humility ? ARROGANCE and ELITISM.

I love Hannity , but why being a TV and radio Conservative talk host , is he critcizing others free speech right to criticize when he has more time on his hands to criticize and the free exchange of thought than the average person ?

I have seen and been the victim of this attitude in my own local Orange County California Republican Party Central Committee grassroots establishment , which would also inclue the Anaheim Republican assembly . People are allowed to get away with absolute HELL in this County Republican establishment because of the very same attitude of Shawn Hannity's : other's are ridiculed for standing up to egregiuos wrong and abuses going on within. Is it any wondere the Republican Party is struggling so much ?! We need refornm across the country within the Republican Party , and we need others to run for office to get the job done !! .

The fact is is that President Bush has hurt Republican's chances of keeping the House and getting back the Senate. Folks let's face reality . Hannity criticized Bush about his handling of Isreal ( Bush telling Isreal to restrain itself and back off of it's offensive against terror.)He has criticized Bush on air on his radio program saying Bush has governed as a liberal , and that President Bush is in danger of losing in the 2004' Presidential election ( Hannity went through a long list of items ! Should Hannity be censored and critcized for that ?! ).

The vocal voice of the base of Freerepublic.com and Republican the Conservatives base across the country should be an admonishment and a wake -up call to The President , the Republican Senate and the House that we will not stand for a Republican President acting like a liberal , and giving the Democrats what they want to the degree that President Bush and Trent Lott has .

As a result Of the way President Bush has legislated , it will be a miracle if we keep the house and get back the Senate . This should not be. What FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION FREEREPUBLIC members are saying is this :listen , speak , and and act like a Conservative Republican , or we will work to get others voted in ( even run for office ourselves ! ) who will get the job done.

Hannity is right. There is too much attacking from the extreme right who is never happy with anything. Free Republic at times looks like DU to me, with only extreme elements doing the majority of postings. There has to be some balance between beliefs/values and reality. Libertarians are a perfect example of that, they are unwilling to see the reality and thus are pushed into irrelevance.

I missed the actual reference he made, but all day on the show he kept saying a website was calling him some names. I sure didn't think it would be FR!

I have seen posts attacking him several times, and apparently he has too. I agree with the idea that there is too much of that on here these days, way too much!

Conservatives should not defeat our purpose by attacking each other while the real enemy tromps all over the constitution! I know, I know, some here think conservatives are doing that, but if the libs get complete control, you ain't seen nothing yet!

I myself have noticed that there are more and more posts with name calling and personal insults on them. This is how the liberals settle their debates. How about we work to rise above that again?

???? ISn't he jumping on a feud himself? What gives? It's not like one has to worship FR to be a conservative anyway... or was that Jim Rob's requirement?

I like Sean, but the internet is the internet and people argue and flame, always has been always will. Unless you want to ban criticism, but then there'd be no point.

that he has just about had enough of the conservative cannibals on this board

I'm betting there are a lot of libs on here masking as real people.

You can tell when they back government programs, taxes, etc instead of individual freedoms.

I have not been around in a few months what has the climate been? Catch me up please. Been busy. Did President Bush cave to the ICC/UN? I saw a cartoon that 'looked' this way.

As a monthly contributor, I think their are conservative disruptors. There is no doubt in my mind that some of the noisier 'non-contributors' would have no sadness if this site would die.

If I hadn't met Jim Rob. . . . I am so tempted to withdraw my contribution.

He said if he wants to get attacked he will go to a Liberal board.

No Sh!t!!!!! I'm so angry I was about ready to take away my MONTHLY contribution. . .which would only make some of these ass-0's happy.

It's no doubt they will not put their money where there mouths are@! They should create their own website! Carl Wigglesworth should be invited as one of their champions.

Pre-war England was heading full speed to socialism. When the conservatives came to power - their job was to simply administer the socialist's government programs.

You can make that case with the Republicans today. When I was born, the state, local, and federal government took 25% of our money - today it's over twice that amount. Republicans are simply slowing the march to socialism, poverty, and tyranny.

We "conservatives" will all go away unless we start removing large chunks of government and take the focus away from "economic" freedom and return to indivdual, political freedom. An impossible task.
