And posters like that aren't even ashamed when someone can only afford $5...and they send nothing. It's like a welfare recipient eating at posh restaurants while those footing the bill can't even afford McDonalds. And saying that donations should equal "pay to play" is pathetic. Sounds like a liberal to me.

LOL...you're serious and thats the funny part. People pay to use the site and are not guaranteed use of the site? How about if money for a service is rendered the service is given. Nevermind the censorship that is what all the bannings are. And you think I sound like a liberal?

I have little problem with the rules, but the vacuum you all want to exist in is making a mockery of this site. My way or the high way is not a very conservative trait.

They are not buying the right to voice contrary opinions. They support the site to keep it up and running.

Nevermind the censorship

Free Republic is private property. No one has the right to post views contrary to the owners. That's just the way it is. It's Jim's house.

And you think I sound like a liberal?

Are you using the site for free and complaining about it? Yup. Just like a liberal. "I want it free and I want it my way!"

You've got 'payment for services rendered' confused with 'donations'.

There is a difference.
