Most of these critters don't come by our Terri Daily threads anymore, but we see them attacking others, our kindred friends on similar topics. It is discouraging at times as sometimes it looks like they have dominated FreeRepublic. Yet, we can take heart in what Jim Robinson said on another thread, a philosophy and a direction expressed with clarity.
New and fresh topics regarding Terri and victims like Terri are less than before, although amazingly many considering how time has passed. To many the topic is burdensome to follow, yet, we are chronicling these topics and building a repository of solid information which assures Terri's Legacy will remain and, Lord willing, will prevail. We grow weary as the dark side refreshes itself like a swarm of killer bees, new ones replacing the spent ones. Yet we will remain standing so long as we keep faith.
I have extracted the post of Jim Robinson from the context of the thread. The core values we hold dear are ensured by his words. Much of the thread will be difficult reading for some as our own friends, some from the Terri List, are set upon in a feeding frenzy as they defend our values. Note, especially, Eternal Vigilance who stands up under withering attack. He is attacked with vitriol because of hatred, not for him as an individual, but for what he stands.
The freeper sleepers and resident trolls may not have gone away, but are becoming increasing irrelevant as paper tigers, shadows to ignore. We defeat detractors like these simply by being ourselves as they expose themselves with their own wrath not realizing they are as attractive as certain liberal icon babes doing a pole dance.

The answer is in my statements like these:
I've already stated that FR will probably become even more conservative than it already is, through attrition if nothing else. Besides continuing to champion the defense of America, FR just might become the "Conservative Conscience of the Republican Party," ie, we may become a real thorn in the side of moderate/liberal Republicanism. Someone has to try defend the party from completely tossing out traditional American conservatism. Might as well be us.
How many times must I say FR is a conservative site? We do not support abortionism, homosexualism, feminisim, environmentalism, gun control, liberalism, socialism, etc, etc, etc. When I say I suspect we will become even more conservative than we already are, possibly via attrition if nothing else, what do you think I'm referring to? When FR starts pushing hard and I mean hard against abortion, gay marriage, homosexual education forced on our school children, pandering to illegal aliens, gun control, McCaine-Feingold type usurpation, global warming, etc, etc, even if supported or advanced by the GOP, then I fully suspect certain types of moderate/liberal Republican supporters are probably going to be a little uncomfortable here. We will be fighting for traditional American conservatism no matter who we have to fight against and I'm afraid that's going to piss off some folks.
And I'll borrow a slogan used by the NFRA that I realy like:
"We are the 'Republican' Wing of the Republcan Party!"
