Jim Robinson has deftly commanded the helm of the most unique, priceless, and factually informative grassroots website since the invention of the internet.
Point 1) The first reason is simple: Free Republic is too important to [be] left in the hands of JimRob.
Translation: The MAN who has deftly commanded the helm of the most unique, priceless, and factually informative grassroots website since the invention of the internet is SUDDENLY too incapable of carrying on.
SO....what is the answer to this grandiose and unsubstantiated accusation? Ms Blog-Pimp will attempt to start FR-lite. lol; lol; lol.

If Jim hadn't developed a culture that is ruthlessly factually *accurate* it would have died off years ago. The integrity of this site's information and the self-policing of documentable fact and appropriate research and verifiable links is what keeps this site on top and thriving in a world of left wing propaganda. Not to mention the great FReepers who do the work keeping the site full of great, breaking news.
