“Do you imagine that some grotty blog gets more traffic than Free Republic?”

No, but I don’t want FR to be my only source of knowledge. I like to surf the internet. There also may be some viewpoints that would not be allowed on FR. If that would be the case then, surely, the post would be deleted. Using a blog prevents that. :-)

Knowledge can come from many places. And be posted HERE.
Filthy bloggers are not entitled to hits for stolen content.

You should avoid blogs. It's stolen content with a virus attached.

True. Most bloggers are gay.
