Good-Bye Cruel Free Republic
6-16-02 | wasfree

Posted on 06/16/2002 5:32:24 AM PDT by magnum opus dejure

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.

I'm not wearing any pants.

Again, typical.

A pale thin tall Colin Powell with more hair and a harder glare.

I will send you a wallet-sized photo.

I have only opend one of the DITHF threads and the loading time with the pictures just didn't appeal to me.

What pictures? I don't remember a lot of pictures on any of those threads.

I am a strong Bush supporter and a conservative male but I see the threads and move on. Have you ever considered doing the same.

Have you ever considered posting when you knew what the hell you were writing about? I THINK I may have posted to one of those threads once when they first started,and they made me want to puke so bad I've never been back.

There are at least 2 "Bush caved" threads a day

The solution for that is to get Bubba-2 to quit caving and running further to the left each day. Don't blame the messengers for the message.

You sound like a jealous little girl that is furious that she is only getting 90% of the attention when you obviously feel you deserve 100%.

What a maroon! Through bitching yet about your "man" being criticised?

When you quit bitching like a little girl.

"A clique of people who have taken it upon themselves to include or exclude others based on what they perceive as "hip", "cool" or "in"."

I have posted repeatedly to several different "clique" threads. Each and every one of them has been very affable and welcoming at best, and neutral at worst. You don't suppose it might have something to do with WHAT you post, or the WAY you post it, do you? Naw, that can't be...

sneakster, should I tell him, or you?

Nah. Reality is obviously a mystery to him,and he's probably most comfortable that way.

You don't seem to understand that there's a difference between insulting the media and insulting Freepers.

Valid, reasoned criticism of the various positions GW Bush has taken is less "bithing like a little girl" and more "holding Bush's feet to the fire".

I will make a deal with you LAZ, you stick to posting about your underwear and let Sneaky speak for himself. That way you get to stay in your realm of expertise and Sneaky can show me how tough he is.
