Free Republic

Some long-time valuable posters have announced their opus to leave FR today. Well I don't. This is my family, this is my home. I may have serious disagreements with other posters and may occasionally be discouraged at the direction FR is heading. But I am not a quitter. I am staying right here, right where the center of the action is, and I will never quit. So what if others post offensive comments or views? It's a free country. Anyhow, I'm not leaving, and there is no opus. I'm ready to take on the 21st century and drag it kicking...

I am sick up to here with all these opera (plural of opus) from people who are quitting FreeRepublic. So, I'm stating it up front. I have quit quitting. I've quit quitting marriage. I've quit quitting civic organizations. And I've quit quitting on-line discussion groups. So, you're always gonna have Congressman Billybob to kick around. You'll know that I am officially "OUTTA HERE" when Felicity Fahrquar comes online to invite you all to an old-fashioned, cyber Irish wake. Don't try to change my mind. I won't take yes for an answer. That's my final answer. I've had it. (And by...

I AM LEAVING THIS DEN OF INIQUITY! I'VE HAD IT WITH YOU PEOPLE! YOU CALL YOURSELVES COMPASSIONATE CONSERVATIVES AND THEN GO AND ELECT THE HALLIBURTON PRESIDENT! WORST OF ALL: THERE WAS NONE! THIS PLACE DOESN'T STAND FOR FREE SPEECH AT ALL! I'VE SEEN EXTREME BEFORE, BUT NEVER HAVE I SEEN THE BIGGEST COLLECTION OF LOSERS IN ALL MY LIFE THAN IN THIS ONE PLACE. SO GO ROT LOSERS! YOU DESERVE YOURSELF. YOU AND YOUR WE WENT INTO IRAQ AND FOUND NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION PRESIDENT! I HOPE YOU CAN LIVE WITH THE CHOICE YOU MADE. THE REST OF US...

First of all, this is NOT an April Fools joke! I want to monopolize your time by selfishly posting a vanity about MY intent to STAY at my favorite site, FR! :D I've been flamed plenty of times for things I've posted (and am anticipating flames for this post). I've seen people make statements I do not agree with. Does this mean that I should post a vanity on why I am leaving? NO! In fact, a lot is to be learned by disagreement. I have refined and strengthened my arguments over the time I've spent here. The founding FATHERS...

Well folks, this is it. I've been called a baby-murderer because I've posted that Laser Guided Bombs work better when dropped from above 15,000 feet. I've been accused of not caring about 'grunts' for advocating air power, in spite of having a daughter & son-in-law in the Marines and a son in Iraq with the Army. I've been accused (and this HURT!) of being an Army officer because I've advocated increasing the size of the Army. I've been accused of being a clintoon-pansy because I don't like how Rumsfeld works acquisition and disagree with him on the size of the...

As much as I have suffered watching what has been going on with Terri Schiavo over the different news medias, it is now time to say "Good-by, Terri"! Your life is now up to the Lord and may He welcome you into the kingdom of heaven. Meanwhile, the news media keeps their psycho-babbling going as to who should do what, what doctors should have done, what the family should have or have not done, but Terri is dying, simple as that! I don't mean to be cruel for I truly believe in my heart that Terri should live because she...
