It’s like you guys feel

I am not now, nor have I ever been, in any role or position of responsibility with FR. I don't speak for them, think for them, or do anything for them, and I never have.

This particular forum on FR is "bloggers and personal." I wrote it, and I posted it, and it's my personal opinion and initiative.

Also, why not charge fees and accept advertising? Maybe it gets handled differently if it's income instead of donations. And that might cause an entire range of headaches. Just a thought, but I don't know.

To me it’s like the poor persons excuse “if I make money then I will have to pay taxes”

My guess is that the site is sitting on a pot ‘o gold revenue wise. Jim Robinson has done a fantastic job building an iconic or beacon site for conservatives, get the right model in place and use profit for a legal contingency set aside,donations to worthy causes and I would not object if he put some hard earned cash in his pocket. Capitalism solves a lot of problems
