Bingo! That's how I found FR too. I hardly ever go to Drudge now, because a story there is almost always on FR, without having to go to the link.

Have always been thankful for Drudge bringing me to FR--lo quite a number of years ago.

Me2. And the Opera browser will kill the popups.

I like Drudge but he's sure touchy when someone criticizes him. I prefer Free Republic but Drudge is a backup. In fact, I found free republic on Drudge's site a long time ago. If it wasn't for Drudge, I would be floriduh voter right now.

Snopes is of little use anyway. Popups or no.

Actually, snopes is wonderful when you have friends who feel that every bit of glurge is absolutely true. I get the "Johnny was poor and his sister had no arms...." e-mails all the time.

1.2 million a year for working out of your Miami condo. Not bad, but then I think of our nations self appointed "leaders"...The hollywood libs who make that per minute sitting in a custom built trailer (or the Presidential suite of some hotel) while being fed grapes by a sycophant.

''Once I was listening to Michael Savage's [syndicated radio] show and he opened by reading from The Drudge Report on the air, story by story -- in order -- without once mentioning that he was looking at my site,'' Drudge said with obvious amusement.

I've heard Rush do exactly the same thing with Free Republic, metesky said with obvious amusement.
