Actually, I've been in touch with Mr. Raimondo on several occasions, and have developed quite a respect for him. I also admire and speak intermittently with David Horowitz. Horowitz isn't stupid, and I think he knows how to street fight with the best. The AFs are way, way out of their league if they're trying to bluster him.
Of course, the AFs are out of their league trying to steal Girl Scout cookies.
As a result of antifreeper's actions, Horowitz visited Free Republic in a Town Hall format, so their plan backfired, as you probably know. Justin made several appearances there, and it was interesting to view the give and take between the two old adversaries.
ps: "head" moderator?? toast hole?? tsk.tsk. You'd best not let harrowup see that. He's got an itchy trigger finger.
