Way too many vanity threads lately. And way too much trash being posted. Please try to stay on topic (politics). Also, please do a search on a significant word from the title of your article before posting. This will reduce the number of duplicates. And, along these same lines, please use the original titles on your article posts. Do NOT edit the titles. Do NOT use "My Title" titles. This will also help to reduce the number of duplicates.
And, whatever else you do, please DO NOT post from DEMOCRATS UNDERGROUND (or any other such trashy un-American socialist hangout). Free Republic was intended to be a socialist free zone. We've gone to a heck of a lot of trouble to make it that way. Why in the world would you think we would be interested in having their trash posted here?
And QUIT trashing each other. You know who you are. Knock it off! Way too many flamewars and feuds going on. And, while I'm thinking about it, QUIT trashing our conservative candidates. If you want to criticize someone's position on some policy, have at it. But do not trash or smear the man. That would include Browne, Buchanan, Bush, Keyes, et al, or whomever else may be your favorite trashee (examples listed in alphabetical sequence). The idea is to get more conservatives elected, not to trash the ones you don't like. If you want to trash someone, make it a Democrat. Thank you.
And QUIT dredging up old communist propaganda to smear our conservatives. Sheesh! Whatever else you may think about our guys, they did not hijack airliners full of people and crash them into buildings. No, my friends, not even the dreaded CIA. Anyone who would believe (or even suspect) that crap is no FReeper. I've been pulling this crap whenever I see it and several people have been banned for continuing to post it. I do not want it on Free Republic. Any current FR poster who believes this leftist propaganda, please logoff immediately, send me your resignation via email, and I will delete your account.
Thanks,
Jim
Nope.. not to much to ask at all. Intelligent debate.
Thanks for clarifying for me (though after this long I was pretty sure that is what you meant). I've never been banned or even warned for that matter.. don't wanna start now :o)

PS: Even though there is nothing "fair" about her.
It is how we look to the outside that bothers me first... as I said in the thread:
Manners is behaving when others are watching. Class is not having to change your behavior because someone is watching.
I think it is possible to teach manners, and class comes later.
As always, this is my humble opinion... I am not here to tick everyone off over Chelsea Clinton. Jeepers I hope I pick a better battle than that to fight. In the theme of a "kindler, gentler FR" I meant only point out one new thread that I felt was crossing a line, and see if the Moderator, or anyone else, agreed.
I was born Conservative and if these two were MY parents I would have denounced them at a very early age. That she continues to support them is disgraceful. Blood may be thicker than water but this is just wrong.

PS: I guess my problem is that I couldn't have any self respect if EVERYONE on the planet knew that I was a disgraced liar.
How do I keep the "no profanity, no personal attack" portions out of my posts if A+Bert comes back? VBG
We have picked up a large number of "Bush bashers/America is always wrong groups/Republicans are as evil as dims crowds" in the last year or so. Their one purpose in life is to disrupt FR and try to infuriate FReepers enough that they will lash out with profane/dumb statements which are used against us.
Maybe the Abuse button will become a friend to us all.
LOL!
