[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

Hi! Amazing! I found a site where the people support Bush! I'm a little sick of hearing that everything is Bush's fault. An excellent site by the way. Full of info. and more importantly I'm not gonna see alot of Bush Bashing going on.

Great Website!!!

[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

It's just great to find a site where the people are real and not living in some uninformed fantasy world. Your site rocks! I'm gonna stick around a while if ya dont mind. It is quite addicting....I'll need rehab in a couple of days hahahaha.

[STARWISE]

Welcome!

[Mongeaux]

Yes indeed. New guy buys. I will have a kahlua.

[PalestrinaGal0317]

If you are what you claim to be, welcome.
If not, IBTZ.
You'll understand soon enough. ;)

Welcome to Free Republic. Yes, this place has been a refuge of sanity for me since the 2000 election. You'll find a lot of breaking news is posted here first. I check it each day for the news and the incredible analysis of the posters. There are so many intelligent, very witty and good people here. Glad you found it.

[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

you got it!

[Echo Talon]

hmmm, consider me skeptical of this posting.

[onyx]

If you're serious, WELCOME to FR.

[JennysCool]

Methinks the kitties are restless...

[bannie]

With trepidation, I say, "Welcome!"

BTW: How did you get here? Do you know the secret handshake?

:-)

I didnt think much of GWb till 9/11. I am glad at least he seemes to be the only one who understands we have an enemy. The dems think we are the enemy. i am not GOP but more along the lines of a Reagan democrat. I had rservations about the war in iraq back in 2002 but once the decision was made to go to war, the debate needed to end. many of the same dems who supported the war then are now turning their backs on our men and women in uniform, GWB is not. Even my Bush hating mother agrees with that.

[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

skeptical of what?

[sachem longrifle]

besides, i heard of this site on the sean hannity show. Been here since

[bannie]

Hold the kitties in check...he may be legitimate...?

[STARWISE]

Check my tagline.

[bannie]

We've learned to be wary of strangers with big smiles. Hopefully, you aren't carrying any concealed weapons.

:-)

[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

Ok, I better get to reading the rules in detail.
I noticed I spelled Etiquette wrong up there.
Ooops.

[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

i checked my weapons at the front desk hahaha

[Names Ash Housewares]

Welcome.


Free Republic is a powerful resource.

You can learn to debate and defeat liberals here with some of the best facts and arguments you can find.

This place is addictive because its fun most of all.


Enjoy!

FR is usually about two weeks ahead of the lame stream /Drive By ENEMEDIA.

[Stayingawayfromthedarkside]

Welcome to FR!!! and remember if you ever go to DU you will need a shower before returning here. LOL!!!

[nopardons]

Welcome to FR; unless you're a troll.

[Echo Talon]

If you missed Ann Coulter on Hannity & Colmes the repeat is on. It was pretty funny :)

[STARWISE]

; )

[bannie]

Oh, goooood. The man has weapons. NRA is a GOOOOD thing.

[bannie]

:-)

[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

Thanks for the warm welcomes....you seem to use alot of acronyms here and it's going to take me a while to understand I guess but I'm sure I'll get there.
So far I've seen Fr which I'm assuming is Free Republic.
DU has been used but it doesnt seem like a positive thing so I'm gonna guess at Democratic something or other.
And IBTZ or something like that and I have no clue what that is hahaha.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

[nopardons]

Okay, IF you are for real, please feel free to FREEPmail ( yes, this IS a "forum" and it has a mail service too )me and ask questions. Please ask questions, in private, before you make a stupid mistake in public. Us old timers are always happy to help a for real n00b. ;-)

[nopardons]

Always use the spell check before hitting the "post" button!

[bannie]

hmmmmm.....Are you really that green?

[nopardons]

IBTZ = IN BEFORE THE ZOT

DU = Democrat Underground (a damned Dem site full of crazies)

[bannie]

psssst! Keep the kitties handy. Somethin's not right.

;-)

[Allegra]

[Stayingawayfromthedarkside]

DU=Democratic Underground it is a liberal site. I avoid it because of my temper. I guess I haven't quite learned how to laugh at there nonsense. Of course when they spew hate for anything good about America it is very hard to laugh at them.

[Stayingawayfromthedarkside]

IBTZ = In Before The Zot, we type this before the moderators kick out any trolls.

[JennysCool]

I figgered.

[staytrue]

And IBTZ or something like that and I have no clue what that is hahaha.

Who has the viking kitties. This guy is a DU troll.

On FR, every other word is "it is bush's fault" as sarcasm or "it is bush's fault" for real.

Who the hell pick's "newguy" for a screen name.

Just zot him now please.

[bannie]

Too stiff and proper.

[BIGLOOK]

New guy's confused. I'm in the hunt.

[jellybean]

Too friendly. My antennae are tingling.

[NewGuyOnTheBlock]

Wait a second, I know troll cant be a good thing and I assure you I'm not a troll.
And I picked newguyontheblock because I've never used a forum before.
I got delayed there for a minute...friend calling me for tech support.
Ok I still have no idea what IBTZ means in before the what?
Zot was it? ok Yes I am that green hahaha whats a zot?

[bannie]

Yup...he may not act now that we're on the alert...but since his sign-up date is ticking, he may use the account some other day.


;-)

[scratcher]

IBTZ

Just to be safe.....

[bonfire]

Welcome!


We can always use new blood around here!

[bannie]

May I ask your age?

[onyx]

Alert for what?
He hasn't been obnoxious.

I know that most trolls begin here with a vanity, but not ALL are trolls.
