I fear that instead of providing a thought-provoking venue for the exchange of ideas that would make us all more informed and better able to express our opinions, the site is now drifting into a gray, group-think fog, where any unauthorized thought is suspicious at best and heresy at worst.

Tell me I'm wrong. Please.

YOU'RE WRONG,

There have been several long-time FReepers who, possibly like yourself, were either never conservative in the first place or somehow digressed into liberalism over time.

I'm sure to many of you it seems as though there is some sort of "group think" here, but that is because genuine conservative principles are foreign to you.

From your postings, it is fairly obvious that you came here at the request of another Darwin Central member who was banned last night for pathetic FReepmails and he had recently been suspended for openly telling this same FReeper to go "F*&# Himself" and before you call me a liar, I was there to witness it and hit the abuse button at the time.

So, why don't you do what your homepage says and go back among your Darwinist cohorts and extoll the virtues of why an unprovable theory is superior to Christianity.

Darwin Central.

And Wideawakes.

The rosters of both places look like a Feee Republic homecoming.

The thing that suprizes me is the many current FReepers who post there.

“”There have been several long-time FReepers who, possibly like yourself, were either never conservative in the first place “”


That seems to be the bottom line, if you aren’t truly conservative, then at some point you will come to find that you are not “like minded” with them , even if it takes ten years.

Have you all forgotten Ronald Reagan's 11th commandment?

I haven't. Don't tell me I'm not a "real" conservative.

I'm old enough to have voted for Reagan for President twice and I did. Proudly. (And not in the same election, either). Reagan, btw, was the only person I've ever voted for for President. All the other times, I was voting against.

I may have to do that again in the upcoming election.

But I will not break Reagan's 11th commandment.

I was not planning on responding to this particular post, but it does contain a major error of fact. While I disagree with much of the post, I will respond in specific to that error, and that alone.

From your postings, it is fairly obvious that you came here at the request of another Darwin Central member who was banned last night for pathetic FReepmails and he had recently been suspended for openly telling this same FReeper to go "F*&# Himself" and before you call me a liar, I was there to witness it and hit the abuse button at the time.

The bolded section above is the error I wish to correct. I responded to T'wit's post entirely on my own. I was unprompted by anyone.

A lot of folks here are quite hot under the collar just now, so I feel I must point out that I'm not claiming this mistake is a lie. Call it a mistake. But it is not true, no matter how "obvious" it may seem.

There really are no true Scotsmen.
