unfair CENSORSHIP on this site

[unfairCENSOR]

there is an autocratic dictator who lurks over the scene to censor words to his/her liking here. only the messages that agree with their views may be discussed here. they should grow up and be able to debate like an ADULT!!!

[FreeTheHostages]

Roger that.

[fifteendogs]

I am sorry, my question was sincere. If you can tell me what is allowed and what is not I am sure that I can behave as you want.

[FreeTheHostages]

"I can behave as you want."

? No one's in charge. Go have fun. I know of no serious conservative or liberatarian on this website who cares that they behave as anyone else wants!

Ya think?!. :- )

[JoJo Gunn]

sigh Ain't there a way to squeeze "Fantastically Mentally Disturbed" in the keywords?

[Poser]

I think you missed Plover and "fee fie foe foo" and mugwump but otherwise, that was a pretty complete list.

Some of us really want to know what we can say on this forum. Please enlighten us.

Count up the number of anti-Bush/GOP threads versus the pro Bush/GOP threads and then get back to us about how wrong you are.

[FreeTheHostages]

Texas' point -- if you're new, just to be clear -- is that there are lot of different viewpoints on things, including President Bush. There are rules -- they're listed on our front page. Stuff like no racism etc.

People who are obviously lost and unhappy here -- obviously disruptors who don't want to even try to dialogue -- get their plug pulled. But you don't get banned, fifteendogs, for disagreeing!! LOL, if you did, I'd be like dead so many times . . . .

Perhaps you could take a few minutes and explain to those of us who thought this was a free forum of conservative ideas what ideas and thoughts are allowed.

Sorry, Jim decides that. It is his site.

What do you like and dislike?

I like sports. I like folk music and classic rock. I like Monty Python and I like Bugs Bunny. I like Edmund Burke. I like Barry Goldwater. I like slow, wet, deep kisses that last two weeks. I like the way Susan Sarandon used to look, I like Bull Durham, but I don't like Tim Robbins or Susan Sarandon. I really like the way Victoria Principal used to look. I like when socialists lose. I like when taxes go down. I like kids. I like skiing, and chinese noodles.

How long do we have to be logged on as members before we can post "controversial ideas" and how controversial can those ideas be?

Again, your questions are best addressed to Jim Robinson. However, if by controversial you mean racist or bigoted or the like, the answer is several hundred years, barring a breakthrough of medical science.

Do we need to pledge undying loyalty to GWB or to the republican party?

No. Although if your main goal is the destruction of the Republicans you are likely to find this an inhospitable place.

Can we be libertarians or independents or must we be loyal to the republican party only?.

See above.

Can we continue to post our thoughts only as long as they agree with whatever your political leanings are.

My political leanings are irrelevant except as far as I can convince Jim. He sets the course and the rules.

Some of us really want to know what we can say on this forum. Please enlighten us.

Consider yourself enlightened. You must have made quite a number of contacts in your time here to know you speak for so many. I think you will find that most Freepers are pretty savvy and can see what the real deal is with most posters.

Happy Freeping!

PS- if you ask to be banned, we generally will say ok. And we will generally not mind when you sign back up. Just so long as you don't try to make it sound like you were banned 'just because' when you do come back. Speaking in general here.

You seem to be somewhat of an authority on this site, would I be wise to submit any responses to you for review before I post them on this site. The last thing I want is to be banned. How long does one need to be on this site before we can post controversial ideas?

[Texasforever]

I want is to be banned. How long does one need to be on this site before we can post controversial ideas?

Such as?

[FreeTheHostages]

Me, an authority!!

LOL!!!!

OK, man, you are really new. Or really facetious. Hard to say which. In either event, have a good Thanksgiving. Unless you're a Democrat, in which case die an early death. :)

You tote fifteen dogs and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt.
Saint Peter don't you call me 'cause I can't go.
I owe my soul to the company store.

[Texasforever]

::setting my stopwatch::

I am really curious what it is that 15dogs is just itching to say but can't.

[FreeTheHostages]

:)

[Teacher317]

"well-grounded"... hehe

[error99]

I got an idea.
Why don't 'ya just sit back and watch for a while.
That's what most of the rest of us did.
Don't make it so hard on yourself by running around
flailing your arms, smashing into the walls, and everything.
Sit still and study the layout before you try to run through it.

This was a freebie.
Any further advice will be charged at the rate of:
a doller two nighty eight per hour.

[fifteendogs]

Well, can I post thoughts that might be construed as anti Bush or anti republican or possibly ideas that don't agree with Jim Robinson. I have seen such postings and the poster was banned. What is acceptable?
