You been lurking far too long. As a result you have been overcome by the paranoia and hopelessness of some FReepers. Turn off the computer, hug your kids, kiss your wife, take a walk, have a beer and chill.
FBI files?... Poppycock! Just look at the drivel being spittlemouthed by such as Revel! It is we the people to blame! How discerning is the average FreeRepublic reader? Not very. Such idiocy as we read following the insights of MissMarple are clear indication that the seventy-thousand and counting list of Freepers is not the discerning cream of the crop! Only a small percentage is paying attention, and that mostly from the left-leaning mouth breathers. Know why?... Freeping is becoming a 'real thang'. There are real minds, doing the sovereign thing. Think about it.
For weeks on end, ChaseR posted the evidence of sinkWilly's perfidy with the Chinese; when a Catholic thread arose, Proud2bRC would patiently debate the naysayers; if a fool supporting murder on demand (abortion my the Democrat, Al Goulish so willingly flaunts) diened to post an apology for abortion on demand, Askel5 would systematically shred the faulty logic; Kristin and others have stood the barrackades, to freep the sycophancy of clintonism; Iron Jack awakens from the slumber of brilliancy ignored, to post regularly at FreeRepublic; and Alan Keyes has exchanged with freepers, albeit in at least two pseudonym incarnations of note ... FreeRepublic is! Yes, there are too many asleep at the helm of state; and yes, there is a sad lack of attention on the part of too many Americans, but FreeRepublic is the accidental grace of Jim Robinson, et al, vying on the scene for attention of the awakened few!
As a writer, have I not envied the sharp clarity of Iron Jack's occasional posts?... Have we not marveled at Askel5's patience with the serial killer apologists?... Does the debate among Howlin, Torie, and the Keyes supporters not stir us to thought? Could Jim Robinson have even guessed that his passion would blossom so fully?
Even MHG was involved with effecting the past presidential election. The lettters written to expose the absurdity of abortion on demand and partial birth infanticide were spread nationwide to local papers via Freepers! Possibly less than a hundred Freepers were actually influential in the last election, via their ability to network and effect public opinion.
When a poster of socialist bent shows up at FR (aka, a societal engineer in camo-democratic clothing), is it not predictable? Jim's child has come of age! Freeping is a real phenomenon, able to actually influence the yet non-somnambulent. Freep ON! We are _________ strong, and not to be trifled with! Is not the growing voice/prose of Luis Gonzalez a force to be reckoned with, the on-air power of the FreeRepublic alternate radio a source not easily ignored? Who can ignore Mercuria when she speak with such clarity? HAH! It is the age of such as FreeRepublic; Jim's baby has come of age!
