It's no secret. They don't like you and they will ban you whenever they catch you posting to their forums. Who cares? We ban them anytime they register here. It's a fact. Very few people here are interested in reading the DU style spin and regurgitated propaganda.

Those of you who want to rattle their cages are welcome to it, but please do not drag any of their garbage back to FR and please do not bother posting vanities about your experiences with them. It's not wanted here and will be deleted.

Thanks,

Jim

Thank you for reading my mind, but stating it far more eloquently than I would've.

Seen one of their threads, seen them all.

Damn . . . I was hoping to convince a bunch of them that their Democratic Underground contributions should be sent to the following address:

FreeRepublic, LLC
PO BOX 9771
FRESNO, CA 93794

aw c'mon :> I like reading the rantings of psychos and those forgetful indivduals who have not taken their meds for the day

Ditto Jim, I have never logged there, my home is here.

Then go to DU to read them. I think posting, or even referring to DU here on FR unjustly raises their stature. Let them languish in obscurity.

I mean, Alberta, you are just plain wicked!

I've always believed the best strategy is to lead with your ideas, rather than stop to tear someone else's down.

We'll beat them on the facts hands down, every time.

If they want us, they know where to find us.

They might even learn something.

Thanks, Jim!

Both for this and for EVERYTHING that you do for us.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours ..... and God bless you!

John ~~~ can you help spread the word?

I've taked several looks at the postings of the DUpers. I wouldn't think of reproducing any of the hatefull spew that's found on those pages.

that's like thinking I can teach my cat to type...

[KantianBurke]

Aren't they blocking all those who don't donate to their site? Regardless its more enjoyable to read freeper responses to the quackery thats posted on DU rather than just reading the nutty article by itself. Oh well. Them's the house rules. :>

[Straight Vermonter]

Enough with the vanities!!!

Don't ban me.

[Archie Bunker on steroids]

Why are we permitted to post from CNN, Salon, NY Times and other liberal sources? How about quotes from Hillary, Streisand? I think its important to hear what the average liberal posts on DU once in awhile. I especially enjoyed it after the election - it sure boosted my morale even more. I love it when Phlemocrats get miserable. Unfortunately, thats when they become dangerous.

Please allow an occasional DU post Mr. Robinson.

[ambrose]

Roger that. If you do visit that site, a barf bag is recommended.

[AppyPappy]

Isn't this a duplicate post?

[MrB]

Does FR ban any lib, or anyone posting "liberal ideas"?
Heck, I'd like them to stick around if they can stay within the posting rules. Of course, that's the problem, they cannot argue their points without resorting to profanity and name-calling.

Damn, you beat me! :)

I also remember Jim posting a thread on this before.
I guess there are some thick-headed types (and, to be fair, new FReepers) who need reminding.
