I have been a Freeper since 2/98 and have stayed off for months at a time due to all the infighting. Yesterday Doug from Upland was on the phone with Sean Hannity on radio. Sean mentioned Freepers canabalizing each other. He did blame that on the flamers and disruptors, and told Doug to say hi for him to all the Good Freepers. I know that sometimes I will type something on FR that I have heard on KFI 640 am, conservative talk radio about Westerfield case for example. They had Laura Ingle sitting in on the trial and reporting in daily. I would take down in shorthand what she said, and type it word for word on FR. Other Freepers will jump on me and say I am lying. Does grate on raw nerves. I just usually leave that particular thread. It gets on my nerves, but I come back later in same day. I don't enjoy meeting with most of the Freepers I have met in person. Although we had a great group of Freeper women in Houston - most of us have moved away. And we had a GREAT group of Freepers in DC in Oct 1998!!!! I just don't have a lot in common with the Houston male Freepers. But they get along great with each other and that is good!!!!

TThis phrase "cannabilizing" is a mean spitirted phrase. There is another way of looking at this. FR, like any healthy organism has its white-blood cells, has its immune system. The problem with TV talking heads is often they suffer the equivalent of AIDS in that regard. They are surrounding by enablers, but no rot removers. The enablers insure that once a cancer gets a foothold, it takes over.

Thus best if Mr. Hannity takes a lesson from FR, and not be so rash has as to give one.
