It's time for you to take it on down the road. Sounds like Yahoo! and DU are more your style. This is Jim's website, not some public-owned redlight district. You don't own this website. Therefore, you have no right to dictate the rules. When you're in somebody else's house, you respect their wishes. If they don't want you bringing over Hustler magazine and swearing in front of the kids, then you don't do it or you're kicked out.

If anything, you should draft a letter to Jim Robinson instead of moaning on some thread started by that fruitcake Rivero. Or better yet, why don't you go start your own website since you know better than JR how to run one?

I'm not dictating anything. I'm expressing an opinion. I thought we were allowed to do that in FREE Republic.

Do you prefer the old Soviet Union, where the ballots contained only one candidate per office? Do you prefer a forum where only one approved opinion can be posted?

Why are some Freepers so FRIGHTENED and HOSTILE to any political deviation?

Dangerous precedent. The PC Left owns academia, the major media, and quite a few other pretty big houses. The day will come when you'll be expected to respect their wishes, and not swear "insensitive" remarks in front of their children (or themselves).

I'm also not swearing.

FWIW, silencing anyone who deviates from the Party Line is not the way to build a movement. I voted for Bush, but if you don't want my support, I can vote Libertarian next time (as I was tempted to last time). Just don't imagine Bush won't need libertarian support in 2004 -- Bush Sr. had 90% approvals in 1991, and lost a year later.
