I think you are missing the point. It is like saying you want to turn the Republican National Convention into a political debate while the democrats hold their convention. It doesn’t matter if we can defeat their propaganda and I’m troubled that you want to waste time and money it takes to keep Free Republic going by allowing them to flood in here. I suppose when it comes time to raise money, then FR can’t meet its quota, then the liberals can rejoice in the fact they shut us down.

Of course the Democrats want to shut down the discussion on Free Republic. You should see what occurs on the bulletin boards of their own media! They left is USING the internet to attempt to maintain their control over the media.

That means we have to redouble our efforts to create new material and create a niche for FR.

There's a side of me that wouldn't mind seeing that.

...I’m troubled that you want to waste time...

I'm not sure that it is a waste of time. Until it was pulled the thread that not_a_sheep started actually was a fairly civil exchange between people with different views. It was nice to see that happen for once.

I think that you're verging on the apocalyptic there, but you do have a valid point. This place is supposed to be by conservative for conservatives, and JR is within his rights to ban those who try to mess with that dynamic.
