VANITY: The "Truth" about JimRob and Free Republic according to BADJOE

LibertyPost.org | 10/10/03 | BADJOE (Slightly revised by JimRob)

[Jim Robinson]

Dear Free Republic Friends,

My old friend and brother-in-arms BADJOE has promised to warm the cockles of our hearts by publishing an expose (the truth about JimRob and Free Republic according to Joe) on the 18th of this month, which represents the one year anniversary of the date he last posted to FreeRepublic.com and started up with LibertyPost.org.

So, as I believe that only the truth can set you free, and based upon the stratergery of pre-emptive strike, I have a confession to make (before BADJOE makes it public):

I have poisoned the well.

By my sly innuendos behind the scenes.

By my intellectual ineptitude.

By not trusting those that brung me to the dance to bring me home.

By my biting every hand that fed me.

By my arrogance that causes me to think I did it all by myself.

By my stubborness not because of principle, but because of my lack of ability to see what is transpiring.

Evidenced by:

One would think that with half again as many Freepers. with a recovering economy, It would take a great deal less time to raise the necessary funds.

By this time in the June 2002 effort with a goal of $70,000 we had raised $73,000. Not because of who did the fundraising, but because the sense of purpose, of family, of comaraderie, was still present.

BADJOE rang the warning bell, but none heard.

Conclusion:

It is a sad day.

For what was once a great hope, a means of bringing together those who are willing to pay dearly in blood, sweat, and money to save this country, we all love, has been reduced to an asterisk.

So sayeth BADJOE as he promises to publish all this and much more on the 18th. He's been feverishly working on this "project" for one full year. In addition to the "truth about JimRob" BADJOE intends to further betray our trust placed in him by revealing the names of our moderators. And who knows what else?

I can hardly wait.

Is it the 18th yet? Tick, tock.

[Cyber Liberty]

Yeah, I think I'll stick around. Until the Bush-bashers start losing control again.

[Chad Fairbanks]

LOL

[Heartlander]

As for myself, I am agnostic, pro-life, pro-family, anti-gay-marriage...any other social conservative issues I need to be questioned on?

Yes, I have a question… Agnostic-Catholic?

[Right Wing Professor]

Agnostic-Catholic?

I was baptised (and confirmed) a Catholic. I no longer consider myself one.

[VadeRetro]

agnostic

I've lost count of how many times I have told gore I'm an agnostic, and how many times he has called me an atheist.

Well, if anyone is going to know what you are it would be G3K.

Everyone knows what you really are. You're a poophead!

[VadeRetro]

It's a mistake to take on an authority in everything.

[VadeRetro]

That DOES it! "View Replies" button hit!

[AppyPappy]

I'm an agnostic, and how many times he has called me an atheist

What evidence do you have that there is a God?

[VadeRetro]

I don't know. That's how I know I'm an agnostic.

[Stultis]

I'm an a-gnostic myself. Run-of-the-mill theists don't bother me much, BUT I HATE THOSE DAMN GNOSTICS!!!

[PatrickHenry]

The Freep-a-thon has ended successfully. We now return this thread back to the thrilling topic of Badjoe.

[Junior]

You ought to try something along these lines.

[headsonpikes]

Let's form an anti-gnostic front - those dang know-it-all gnostics need their *sses kicked by skeptics every now and then.

;^)

[Neets]

But you have it all wrong..this BADJOE thread was to PROMOTE the fundraiser...

[PatrickHenry]

That DOES it! "View Replies" button hit!

I know this will sound absurd, but I've never noticed that button before. It's really neat.

>What evidence do you have that there is a God?

[Dementon]

I'm thinking you won that one...

[Jim Robinson]

Thank you, BadJoe! Congratulations, you're still the champ!! And a great-hearted one at that!! Really enjoyed your expose and the thread and excitement it generated!!
