If you don’t like the host, why do you go to his house?

You are still playing the same insidious game. To the best of my knowledge, there is no daylight between me and Jim Robinson. If you have no warrant whatsoever for implying that I don't like Jim Robinson, in fact I have the greatest respect for his accomplishments in creating far away the best conservative forum, no the best forum, on earth. I come to Jim Robinson's "house" because I am invited in and because I think I can constructively contribute to conservatives discourse which I believe I have done approximately 15,000 times.

If you have your way you will turn Free Republic into a Potemkin enclave where one cringes under the bed waiting for the knock on the door or the zot intruding from cyberspace. I believe that conservatism is right and leftists are wrong and that we can win any argument. We should not be afraid to venture into the marketplace of ideas. Censorship is the path to ignorance and ultimately to electoral defeat. We can beat them with conservative ideas. We lose when people like you try to intimidate those who wish to engage.

Well, there is always the quantity vs. quality argument to consider.

I do not have “my way”, I do not control FR, Jim Rob does.
