Get over yourself.
How may WEEKLY readers do you have.
And did you or did you not write this "article" at the beginning of this thread?
And don't you DARE compare yourself to the Rhino. In your dreams.
I wondered when you would get around to that.:) Don't like the truth?
Funny I don't see a big uproar on FR about immigration or other issues of concern for the safety of this country. I don't see protests, write ins, or anything else from FR.

Indeed.
But, the forum in which that challenge is presented is the question.
You can have all the free speech you want. Make your own site.
Get people hitting on it.
Good luck
The author is either a liar, or hopelessly out of his depth. I have found that one of the most frequently discussed topics on Free Republic is the cancer of RINOs, who by definition are "Republican".
"Dissidents", "JimBob", protesting too much that "Bush is not God", etc.... I don't know what this author is up to, but I don't like the smell.
You've avoided answering whether you wrote this article.
We have a right to know.
Bump that

And that only proves you are blind or dense.
Yes, I wrote it. Yes, I stand by it. I remember FR from when any politician embracing liberal social causes could count on a good Freeping anywhere he showed up for a public event. (I was in Freepings of Algore's 1999 Raleigh fundraiser and a later one of Jackboot Janet Reno at Duke when she spoke at a commencement there.)
FR cannot be great again just by being a chat room. To return to what made it great under the Klintons, it has to again picket any politician embracing liberal social causes - even if that's Jorge on guestworkers or amnesty for illegal aliens.
As for the comparison to the Rhinoceros Times, what in Alamance County is comparable - if Alamance Independent isn't? The print weekly Alamance News sure doesn't resemble Rhino; instead, it's largely a middle-class society paper of wedding coverage.
He's sure acting like it..
Self serving? I don't own or run FR. It isn't up to me what goes on it or where it goes. It's a simple observation. I've been around and fought the wars long enough to make it. You may disagree all you want that doesn't make your opinion any more correct or wrong than mine.:)
And that only proves you are blind or dense.
And that is just another opinion.:) Which coming from you doesn't mean a thing to me. I guess that makes us about even don't it?

I've waded through the almost 400 posts (whew!) and am pleased to see that dissent and argumentation are alive and well in the conservative (read: thinking) part of the world. I've lurked over the DU and can assure you they don't debate (except with obvious conservatives). They assert without thought.
Unlike the liberals and RATs, we feel it is OK and our obligation to hold the line and do what is best. NOT because it is expedient, but because we CARE. The liberals are parrots -- we are free thinkers.
FR is a needed balm on the liberal sunburn of rights and thought.
Fight the good fight and know that you collectively are what make America great!
