Many have spoken up about it, but the person who insists on sticking it in each thread seems to think it's funny - i.e. "I need your help to make it go away."

If it doesn't stop, I'm stopping my monthly contribution.

You are kinder than I.

I think it is certainly from disruptive Democrats.

Can someone please post that bird...

[Constitution Day]

Two items:

1)Who licked the red off your candy - the ostrich?
2)Would you prefer some other sort of bird?
Perhaps a cockatoo, a parrot, or a magpie?

Your services are requested.

[Wright is right!]

Personally, I'd like to know why the thread on Fox News website getting hit with a DoS attack got deleted. I've been having a TON of trouble getting to the Fox News Webpage and just when I thought there was an explanation, someone deleted the thread.

And - I'm getting pretty tired of seeing Susan Oestrich on every thread as well. Just as I've gotten SO tired of seeing incessant Dell ads on TV that I probably will NEVER buy a Dell. Give me information, yes, I'll buy. But hit me over the head with a stupid commercial (or ostrich) every 3 minutes and your efforts are counter-productive.

That is an ostrich? LOL! For some reason I thought it was a turkey! The things I learn here on FR.

Please don't be mad. While we who are working the fundraiser are trying to be sensitive to everyone, there's no pleasing everyone all the time. As soon as we reach our goal we will go away. Promise! (We're already at 40 percent so it won't be long.)

Thank you for your monthly support. It is really appreciated.

You serious, or is this another fundraiser ploy?

Paraphrasing JR's post:

Y'know, I've heard it all. Free Republic could've been a great place to liberate the country if only Jim would keep out the OSTRICHES. FRee Republic could've been a great place to help elect more Republicans if Jim would only keep out the CROWS. Free Republic could've been a great place to take back America if Jim would've kept out those who would let America be overrun by MACAWS. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would keep out the BLACKBIRDS. Free Republic would've been a great place if Jim would quit banning the PARAKEETS. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would've allowed complete freedom for us to discuss the Audubon Society conspiracy to rule the world. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would keep out the Birdwatcher fruit cakes. Free Republic would've been a great place if Jim would only keep out those who bash Roger Tory Peterson. Free Republic would've been a great place if only Jim would stop the insults and flamewars. I won't refer any more of my friends to FR because Jim allows all kinds of birds to post here and I'm embarrassed. Free Republic could've been a contender if Jim would only get rid of the CARDINALS..."

You will never see the bird again.

[M Kehoe]

This thread could surpass the "Ignore this" or "This is a test" threads.

Good job.

Maybe I should ping MacGavin999?
