No, I post because they have something to say which at least some freepers might want to hear.
I understand they attract plenty of hits on their own.
No, you're posting this because you think that everyone on Freerepublic should have the same mindset as Peirce. What enriches Freerepublic is the diversity of opinion. What I resent is being told how to think by someone who has been richly and deservedly criticized on FR.
This on wants to hear, and thanks you for posting it!
It would be a shame to see FR become a "rah-rah" site for the GOP. Believe it or not, there are those who probably love this country as much as anyone who do have differing viewpoints. As much as Geo. W. Bush is an improvement over scumbag Xlinton (and he IS), it still should not be considered "unpatriotic" to criticize policies his administration is pursuing. After all, are we not still considered a "constitutional republic" and not a monarchy?
Some good points were made in the article, such as this one:
"Next stop Serbia where Christians were bombed to protect Islamic terrorists and drug dealers – people whom the government has characterized as our enemies and enemies of freedom it self. We still have soldiers in Yugoslavia protecting these bums as they purge Kosovo of Serbians – even though we supposedly went there originally because of the horrors of ethnic cleansing! All this murder and then it turns out there was no holocaust, no rape camps – it was all propaganda. I’m unpatriotic because I don’t fall for these shameful lies?"
Why are we in Sebia, anyway?
