ZOT! A Liberal Rates FreeRepublic - It's Not So Bad

[Progman]

You folks would consider me a liberal, and I am not embarrassed at the label. I certainly believe in a safety net for society and helping minorites who otherwise would not be given opportunities.

I had heard about FreeRepublic and expected this site to be a sinister plotting device for crazed right wing freaks. It's really not that at all. It is mostly a chatty mix of simplicities and Bush hero worship. It's actually rather timid here, you might even say banal. I guess it's the sort of intellectually challenged place that you would expect from red state denizens who were fooled into voting for Bush.

So, I am not offended by this site at all. I will encourage other liberals to see what FreeRepublic is.

[Servant of the 9]

Please hang around and be educated. Life is about personal responsibility, you'll see.

Unless you're Terri Schiavo, of course.
Then you can be totally irresponsible with your own life, prepare no Living Will, marry a lout who will mistreat you, and then have bleeding heart illiberals demand a special Federal Law to save your ass from your own screwup.
State's rights does not apply to Terri.

Modern American liberalism: An intellectualy deficient, misery producing non-philosophy, symbolized by false compassion and fueled by (childhood-acquired) hatred of authority figures (remember those "strict fathers"), and nothing more.

Bwah-hah-hah!
He hasn't seen my insidious plots!

[Mr. Buzzcut]

The ultimate safety net.

But carping and moaning about how unfair the world is is much easier ... "Sinister forces preclude my success and happiness!"

Babies.

[Grateful One]

"intellectually", Please excuse.

[N. Theknow]

It's actually rather timid here, you might even say banal.

You sound rather timid here, you must be anal.

Whatever blows your skirt up, little missy...

The smart ones already do...
How else can they find out whats really happening..
They won't and can't find it on any other site..
The So-called Liberal or Conservative ones..

You too will be back.. for the same reasons.. or to watch us savage ourselves to arrive at a logical consensus.. and thoughly vet a subject out..

So-called liberals don't do that, they can't, veering from the liberal line is not countenanced.. Since "liberals" are infected with the mental problem of "narcissic adulation" of themselves they couldn't vet a subject if they wanted to, they don't however want to.. and are PROUD OF IT... And we here laugh and mock them as entertainment.. but we do have some super compassionate ones (like liberals) that whine a bit.. and throw dust on the air that "liberals" can't see things clearly.. You'll like that...

Stay away from Democrat Underground though.. It will depress you greatly.. on the state of liberal "conciousness".. We laugh but you may not see the humor of it ...

Correct a spelling error, then add a grammatical one? It's been a long day.

[GSlob]

Thank you for your kind words - and what would we be doing without them? As for "social safety net and helping the minorities"- sounds nice, and if you want them, then do it and pay for it yourself - by all means.

[pabianice]

Thank you. Nor are we troubled by your psychosis. The latest psychopharmaceuticals have shown considerable promise in treating such as you. Best of luck. And please stay away from machinery and anything hot.

[peacebaby]

WHich way'd he? WHich way'd he go?

Red rover, red rover, send Progman back over.

Come on, Progman, I'm bored. I'm not through playing with you.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

You don't think we let JUST ANYBODY into the sinister plotting forum do you?

[BIGLOOK]

You seem to be intelligent, as well as insulting. And in my opinion, lacking common sense and courtesy. To understand those on FR, one should simply read their comments, and agree or disagree with a balanced argument. You have chosen to attack with a broad ad hominem fallacy and reaped the rewards.

Pathemata Mathemata!

...demand a special Federal Law to save your ass from your own screwup. State's rights does not apply to Terri.

So states have the right to terminate any incapacitated citizen who doesn't have a living will?

The law is to correct the Florida courts' screw-ups, not Terri's.

[jec41]

To bad you were fooled into voting for Kerry. You may like traitors. I don't and before you comment on his being a traitor, don't bother. I am 63, lived it, saw it, and all the rewritten history and propaganda id not going to change what happened.

[humblegunner]

"Progman"...

You spelled "prick" wrong. You need more "ick" and less "og".

Thanks for playing, have a nice day.

"and helping minorites who otherwise would not be given opportunities."

Minorities have been given a leg up for over 30 years. How long before personal hustle, and individual merit take over? 20 more years? 100 years? Forever?

"

Simplicities? You mean like daily examinations of state and federal policies and procedures? Micro and macro economic analysis? World political and economic problems? Okay, we have maybe 20 Bush hero worshippers here out of thousands. The majority are quite critical of Bush on several major policies. But comparing Kerry to Bush is tantamount to comparing a cowardly privileged spoiled brat, to a true stateman and world leader.
"I guess it's the sort of intellectually challenged place"

Uh huh. I will match the mean average I.Q. of FReepers with anything you've got, pal? Up for the challenge? I think not!!
