Hear! Hear!
Did it cost you anything you valued?
I’ve never known humble to be anything but someone with a singular wit, and edgy demeanor, and he makes great points form the many years I’ve known him...A real stand up guy...
Don’t know why some folks would have a problem with that...
I’ve never seen anything from him that offended me...
If I had a dissagreement with him it was always above board, and never personal...
Then either you didn’t see the now infamous Post #9, or you’re not offended by that vile attack on a dead woman for her public support of our troops.
Distraction, distraction, distraction, ... it works, gets people to squabble over all kinds of unimportant side issues, while ignoring or missing what is really happening behind the scenes.
The occupy groups are an example of distraction. Very bad examples. They tear down and live like ignorant uncivilized people, barbarians inside the gates, ... to what purpose ... distraction and causing people to think about them and how to disperse them ... the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing,
How Jim R. tolerates some of this much, and nonsense is a testament to his dedication to freedom of speech to a very high degree.
Thank you Jim. Sorry it is so trying. Think back to when there were no moderatorss. Thank God for the moderators.
God bless the people and good will of the posters on Free Republic, may we know Christ is coming ... Praise the LORD.
“In the words of Ronald Reagan's favorite president.
Do the day's work. If it be to protect the rights of the weak, whoever objects, do it. If it be to help a powerful corporation better to serve the people, whatever the opposition, do that. Expect to be called a stand-patter, but don't be a stand-patter. Expect to be called a demagogue, but don't be a demagogue. Don't hesitate to be as revolutionary as science. Don't hesitate to be as reactionary as the multiplication table. Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong. Don't hurry to legislate. Give administration a chance to catch up with legislation.
-Calvin Coolidge”

Thank you cripplecreek for posting this quote ...
Pray for America!
No I didn’t, not at the time when I last posted...I learned about Post #9 when I saw that brought up in general conversation on the Texas board just a short while ago...
Must have been a doozy...Is there a copy and paste of that #9 in some of the replies I heard that have not been deleted by the mod squad???
I’m going to go around and check myself...BRB...
