"Jerk"
So nice of you to sign your reply. This is the first time I posted this. It was placed into 'breaking news' to commememorate two milestones - One Week, and 64,000 posts.
My wife has informed me that every birthday and every anniversary are 'Breaking News', or I'm in trouble. As this 'Petition' celebrates and promotes 'TRUTH', such is always news to liberals.
I apologize for not recognizing that you were calling me a 'jerk', and that such was not your signature. My mistake, although my being a jerk has nothing to do honoring the 'truth'.
Uh huh. So the title of this thread: FDNY inspired on-line petition blows by 50,000 signatures is just a COMPLETE coincidence, right?
Here's the deal: "Breaking News" is something that is of interest to more than 90% of FReepers. It isn't there for your personal "yea-boy" graffiti.
Great, so you have a petition going on a story that had legs for about three days and is not even remembered by most (and that was a bunch of bulls*** in the first place).
Fine, post all about it. Just keep it off the Breaking sidebar, where it pushes off REAL news.
