There is a lot more cros-pollination of ideas from FR to other forums and news outlets than you might think.

That said, I think FR needs to allow more of the Liberal agenda’s articles and news items to be posted here. Know your enemy is my way of thinking of it.

Also, too many FR members say “I won’t read anything from ____ “ How many times have I read that here? How the hell are you going to know what’s going on if you don’t know what the other side is saying and publishing and broadcasting?

Hello there Lorianne!

I certainly can appreciate your adherence to a liberal agenda, and we welcome your ideas. But, I have to tell you, liberalism in any form makes my skin crawl.

Lorianne, Do NOT EXPECT ME to suck up to ANY of your LIBERAL agenda. Catch a message from Sarah Palin about life.

We are different here. We love our Country. There is no other input that makes any difference.

Actually, we do read ideas and discussions (if one can call them that) from other forums. They give us the material to critically analyze and debate.

Most fall short of logical coherence, factual data and civility. Knowing the enemy doesn't mean falling in line with them. That's being politically correct and polite....and weakens a conservative point of view.

The last notable points of rational democrat thought came from Daniel Moynihan, Sam Nunn and Scoop Jackson. They're gone now....and so's the Democrat party.
