Well, I guess people will tire of me saying it, but you gotta do what you gotta do. And I’m not going to lie and shill for Romney. I’ve studied his record and know what a lying leftist/progressive he really is.
Other than that, I do sincerely sympathize with the guy who said, “can’t we all just get along.”
Thank you very much for your past support.
Can I make a suggestion?
Do you wanna see FR return to its glory days? Two simple steps:
1.) Un-zot every account you've zotted since April '07 and invite all those old Freepers back. Guaranteed word would spread and many would return.
2.) Put a leash on your moderators. Let people hash it out with each other, settle old scores and speak their mind free of fear from the zot. Intellectual discourse would once again set this place apart from the rest.
You could still maintain on a personal level your anti-Romney stance while allowing the members of this forum to speak freely without restraint. Jim, this was the Free Republic I joined over eleven years ago. It was a great place! (And I'd bet the money would start flowing back in as well).
Anyways, something to ponder...
Free Republic has played a very important role in past elections. I know it has been mentioned on various news programs and has helped organized a great deal of protests.
And there is a great future for FR. If Cain had not been plagued with so many scandals, he might be the nominee, if Gingrich was a bit more historically concrete he might have been. I know that Perry just got out of back surgery and undertaking a presidential nomination probably wasn’t the best thing he should have done at that time. Santorum well, he had problems also. Look here it says no profanity, no personal attacks, no racism and i see personal attacks all the time. Maybe you need more monitors to stop this belittling thing. I don’t know, but I do know Free Republic has been one of the most successful web sites in history.
It can play a very important role in the future of this country. Progressives (communists) have been at work a long time and it isn’t going to turn around in one election.
If I had my druthers things would be a lot different in US, but i think you have played a major role in the past, please don’t let it go down the drain.
But I thank you for letting people speak their mind today without the fear of being canceled
