I can't imagine...after reading your profile page (nice) that you and Peach had an adversarial relationship in the forum.

Your surprise that she wrote you a kind email...well that surprises me.

Maybe I'm the naive one here.

I thought that our shared disdain for the Clintons served as a strong foundation.

The vast majority of the Freepers that have registered at Wideawakes did so because they were unhappy with the changing tone here.

I think many of them thought of WA as an extension of our Smokey Backroom...but maybe I'm wrong.

Please know that you describing me as a liberal freeper has the same effect as using a racial slur.

I don't like it at all. It hurts because I HATE liberals.

Calling you a liberal freeper is intended the way I describe myself as a far right winger. Kind of tongue in cheek. But you are the one who said you were liberal on social issues.

I’m actually pretty pragmatic, and supported Bush, Bush 2, and currently support Fred Thompson. I supported Buchanan over Dole in 1996, and of course Reagan in 1976, 1980, and 1984, but I am to the right on everything except censorship issues. I’m a live and let live Christian.

But why would you be surprised at my shock over that e-mail, given my own nine years here, and the adversarial relationships I’ve had with the entire liberal FR gang? I don’t think we’ve ever said anything nice to one another. All the posters that you said were “classics,” I think it was you anyway, to me have been regular thorns and nuisances. We never are on the same side of anything. Or so it seems. And that goes back to Clinton and the beginnings of this site.

So if you aren’t a lib, fine, but how about we agree on some things once in a while, and I don’t mean the WOT.

And I do hope you let Peach know I appreciated it, and that she was banned before I could get back to her.

If ANY republican, conservative, or whatever came on here and started supporting Hillary, Obama, or any of the other Democrat candidates, this entire forum would rightfully call them a liberal. They would have given up any conservative credibility they may have had because they've turned coat and backed a liberal. Supporting Giuliani is NO different. If you support a liberal and you do it openly on Free Republic, it is going to be assumed that you've gone liberal. Giuliani is a liberal and that is the consequences of supporting a liberal.
