Vote vote-pfuscher
Of franc Patalong
Votes are a fine thing, the butter on message bread. They give a feedback to the on-line Medienmacher, how the reader sees a thing. George W. Bush regard nearly 60 per cent of the readers of MIRROR ON-line ONE for example as a Top president. We know also, why.
From the guidance for the falsification of the Mirror On-line Votes: "You need tons cklick ' co-ordinating!'" The widow Vivian Freep from Midland (Texas) is "George Bush's biggest more supporter".
Beautifully for Bush, the European imagines there, but in an American conservative Credos ascends equal the anger. An insolence is that, which does not want to say no more and less than the following: Bushs success is based on the assistance of humans, who manipulate, disturbs, falsifies.
Because "Freeping" is an Slang expression. He means the nocturnal pasting over of election posters, the organization of being noisy area MOS, the purposeful disturbing of appearances of political opponents and - not least - the massive falsification of tunings in the InterNet.
The strange term developed for end of the nineties and goes back on the web page "Free Republic" of the ultrakonservativen activists Jim Robinson. "Freep", how the web page was fast called by fans, understands itself as "a conservative message forum". Principal item of the offer is the panel, in which it goes partly violently to the thing.
Free Republic began as Clinton Hasser side, developed themselves further however fast. First Lorbeeren harvested the "Freep Movement", when the side began to call in various elections for the "support" of conservative candidates.
Completely concretely: It concerned to disturb demonstrations of the democrats to tear off or falsify posters, to opponents to support actively. Already as itself Bill Clinton saw, to organized Freep groups in different US cities "info. meetings" and switched newspaper advertisements confronted with an office expulsion procedure. The term "Freeping" developed and meant: Over tones the opponent.

When ANSWER scumbags were pasting their rally posters all over our nations capital, the stalwart DC Free Republic Chapter made up these sponsor stickers and put them on the posters faster than the ANSWER thugs could get rid of them. I cant share the original pic (its part of a HUGE photocollage) but a photo of a poster-sticker combo was dubbed a News Photo of the Year by The Hill newspaper. Great job, guys!
Thank you. I will probably steal it...

Freep this Poll! "Der Spiegel" Exposes The Free Republic's "Freeping" Strategies
Commentary and Summary Translation by BuzzFlash Reader Monica Friedlander
Something funny happened to the online version of Germany's weekly newsmagazine "Der Spiegel" earlier this month. Starting on March 5, its normally Bush-allergic readership suddenly appeared to turn around 180 degrees, giving an enthusiastic thumbs up to the American president in the magazine's online poll.
Fortunately, the editors of Der Spiegel didn't fall for the ruse, and unlike the mainstream U.S. media, they immediately alerted their readers to the growing right-wing menace: "Freepers!"
