I'm a Democratic-leaning independent voter that has lurked on the site for some time. Although I don't agree with the viewpoints of many here, I've learned quite a bit from the research necessary to fairly appreciate both sides of the issue. Pretty much the same reason I listen to Hannity and Rush.
I also belong to DailyKos but likewise rarely find myself in lockstep agreement with the left, either, on any issue. I'd be the first one to admit that both sides often have valid points. I just wish politicians would do a better job of acknowledging that, instead of unmercifully demonizing the other side in playing to their constituencies.
Hopefully, questions I ask along the way may enlighten other non-conservatives who occasionally browse FreeRepublic.

Hmmmm.
No responses, no other posts.
Methinks this person is hoping to be flamed so that he can run back to KOS and moan about how mean those fascists over at FR are.
I don't think we should participate in his plan, do you?

You've come to the wrong political forum.

Welcome. I was once a Democrat, as well, but I recovered. If you really open your mind, I suspect you will also.

RP.. seems the left has kicked Cindy to the side of the road.
Amazing that the only sign of compassion for this poor disturbed woman, came from FRee Republic.

Welcome to FR.
Good manners and a thick skin won’t necessarily save your life, but they’ll greatly improve your odds.

I can’t even muster the will to go there. I would feel dirty. Did you take a bath afterwards?
