Funny how when if someone may not agree with our viewpoints some of us run to their sign up date, as if it is suppose to mean something ominous if it is to recent. There are intelligent people out there that can contribute alot to this site, regardless of their sign up date. Debate is what make this place great, and if we all agreed there would be no debate.
Myself I tend to welcome New Freep Members, even when I disagree with them, but hey that's just me
You might find some of them more enjoyable.
Nowhere did I attempt to squelch her right to voice her opinion. She may say anything she wishes, just as long as it is in accordance with JimRob's policies.
I sensed an air of disruptiveness in her post. Why should we impugn our sides' willingness to protest when the Left makes protest(s) their bread and butter? Also, since when are these commie pinkos NOT traitors? They protest and stand against everything this nation is about.
Yet this poster seeks "logic" in our efforts to combat our arch enemies?
Whatever...
I don't know about you, but I don't waste too much time on "logic" while engaged with the enemy, the haters of the United States.
Over a simple question from a "newbie"?? If you can't take a question for being a question fine, But what does this have to do with this Freepers membership sign-up date? You seemed more concerned by her "newbie date" than debating the question she brought forward. And that's was the point I am making in my last post.
Also, since when are these commie pinkos NOT traitors? They protest and stand against everything this nation is about.
LOL, I never said they weren't. In fact I don't believe McCynic said they were or were not either.
Yet this poster seeks "logic" in our efforts to combat our arch enemies?
No I believe "this poster" was asking why ppl were protesting in the same manner in which they thought was offensive when it was coming from the left, but that's my assumption, maybe you should debate this with her tomorrow when she comes back on, if of course her "Freeper Freshness date" isn't to new for you.
Good Evening all, It's getting late, maybe tommarrow....
May of us have lamented that the media doesn't show much of Pres. Bush during the daytime hours. If they get wind of THIS, we can be assured the cameras will be there and it will be trumpeted on the nightly news. Frankly I hope if they do it, Pres. Bush MENTIONS them and makes the point that isn't it great we live in a country where everyone is allowed to publicly and peacefully express their feelings about their government. That would sure take the winds out of their little sails now wouldn't it?
Our President will handle any protest with grace, class and humor. Let the leftists turn their backs while Bush speaks about the virtues of this country and its people and the need to defend same. Boy, will they ever look bad! They will be saying, with their turned backs, "We don't think much of our country, we don't care to defend our lives and honor." Bush's popular support will soar, theirs will sink below the detectable range.
After that, I hope O'Reilly invites them on his show to explain their views to the American public. This ain't Vietnam revisted, as they believe, and the public has no sympathy for their views.
I'll be there...central Ohio freeps to the rescue!
Yhe good old days! Times have changed...
As for these Turn Your Back protestors, I have the perfect solution for conservatives: come to Bush's speech armed with scotch tape and lots of pieces of paper with KICK ME! written on them...
Go to the link in the original story and you can get a ticket or at least email them about tickets. Perhaps Ohioans should see if we can all get some from them. Hmmm.
We can pretend to be on their side.
rdb3, her logic was sound. (I'm neither a newbie nor a disruptor... we joined in the same month.) TheCause wrote (post 13), "When I was President of The Ohio State University College Republicans 1992 - 1994 we kicked Klintoon all over the place when he came to campus. (In fact the Klintoon campaign said they would never come back to Ohio State Univ. because of the poor reception)". The majority of FReepers posting here are decrying the Left's effort as immature, treasonous (post 13 again), and apparently even hope for gunshots from National Guardsmen (posts 8 & 14) ... yet few offer any such criticism for TheCause who proudly organized efforts to do more than just quietly turn a chair around. That's rather hypocritical. Her point is valid. Your reply of "whatever" and your dismissal of logic are intriguing, though. Obviously you don't care about being seen as a hypocrite, but many here do. We don't need to give the Left any more ammunition. (Of course, they rarely bother with Truth and facts, but let's not give them the opportunity for legitimacy!)
We should not adopt the Left's tactics, and we should worry about hypocrisy within our ranks. It's never easy being the Good Guys.
A DemocRat complaining about election fraud is like a fish complaining about water.
Instead these babies want their diploma's and don't want to spoil there graduation day. If they really felt so strong about these issues, turning one's back is a pretty mild jester.
Me too becuase who else are we going to get to fetch the coffee and the bagels if we don't have newbies.
Like: Many of you graduates will be willing to face the future and the new dangers even while some that stand beside you turn their backs on our attempts to secure a peacefull future.
Of couse, even dumber is not even permitting the removal of
burnt trees. That would only remove more useless
combustible material.
Talk about junk science. In the long run, these EPA
greenies are more dangerous than al-quaeda(sp).
I'm not sure the downed trees from Hugo west of the
Charleston, SC area have been allowed to be removed.
If the OSU gradualation class is a typical class of 2002,
we're in a heap of trouble.
