Well, it's been 4 years since I first found Free Republic. I have always felt like I belonged here and have really enjoyed the banter back and forth between us members. I am afraid all this is now over. I am really suprised and shocked at it's suddenness. Before I leave I want to thank a freeper from Michigan who sent me a DVD player last year to give to my kids for Christmas. You reaffirmed my faith in humanity.
I know this thread will be deleted before many people get to read it, but I just can't go without saying a final word. Every since 911 the 'vibe' here at FR has been decidedly hostile. I guess it was a matter of time before the newbie moderator got around to weeding me out for my sometimes unpopular views. So I join the ranks of A+Bert and so many others who gave FR a interesting flavor. I will miss coming here 20 times a day and keeping up on things. But without posting priviledges there is just no point. I must go find another conservative group to try to be a part of.
In the future, when a freeper who has been a loyal member since August 1998 crosses the line, how about a note instead of banning? Would that have been too much? I may have gotten out of line, how is beyond me, but if such a tresspass would have been pointed out I would gladly have refrained from doing so again. It is just not right to just ban an account with no explaination. Especially when the freeper has been here 4 years. I have no idea what I am going to do with my days now that I no longer have FR. Well, I guess I have said my part. It is a sad day when one has to leave family and friends. I feel like some of you were just that. But apparently I am no longer wanted around here. I bid my good day to you all and hope that karma pays it's respects to those who do injustice.
Will I get my own Opus thread?
LOL! Ok, and do you mind if, next time I think I have an opinion, I check with you first to see if I am right?
Gawd it is good to be smug.
No, just wrong. Ron Paul voted with the rest of Congress to authorize the President to move forward without a formal declaration of war.
I think it was texasforever. Why not write and ask him for one?
I guess it's because I am a realist and an American. Being anti government is a great game at liberal gatherings but it gets tiresome around conservative pro America groups. It is a real easy question to answer if you pull up Parsy's posts tonight realizing that the US is fighting for its very life.
Correction: the sneakster's bizarro defense of America's sworn enemies is despicable.
And you are just inane.

Why do you live the life of a masochist and a dreamer?
How about "Goodnight Mrs. Kalabash(sp?), wherever you are?"
Yeah, Ros, and if I formally authorize you to "move forward" onto one step of my property with my express consent, I can still legally proescute you for trespassing if you take another step.
A blank check it's not.
So, what's your point?
Reading the latter half of it has a kind of rubbernecking-at-the-car-wreck quality.
