What Makes a FReeper a FReeper?

I often wondered what exactly makes a FReeper a FReeper? Is it the simple act of reading articles on FR? Do you have to post articles or replies? To call yourself a FReeper do you need to engage in effective activism like writing letters to politicians, getting out in the street to carry signs, or, is being a FReeper an attitude. If so, what attitude is that?

Knock yourself out.

[massgopguy]

A Freeper must have a sense of humor.

There is a big difference between a big “FR” FReeper and a freeper..................

[PBRSTREETGANG]

A brain and some snappy pajamas.

[Bob J]

What difference is that?

[dirtboy]

Only one qualification to be a freeper - an instinctive, almost genetic response to make fun of Hillary’s cankles.

[evets]

"Courage"

Would flame his own mother in the womb if he detected she wasn’t pro-life.

love of country

[TMSuchman]

IMHO a Freeper is a person who READS a lot, and reads & follows the law and expects it to be enforced to the letter of the law. They will stand up for “Truth, Justice and the American way” We want low taxes, safe neighborhoods [and will defend them if needed.

[Revolting cat!]

A CReeper!

[trisham]

IBTZ!

[Huck]

The ability to spend at least 6 of every 8 work hours goofing off on the internet.

[Bob J]

I think you got it...heheh.

[pissant]

You can only be a freeper if you:

a) give a sheckel to the site

b) Agree with Pissant

[Tijeras_Slim]

Being logged in.

[WhiteGuy]

What difference is that?

A difference in behavior, intellegence, comon sense, and class..........

[Reagan Man]

A good FReeper understands there are no limitations when defending the Constitution, advancing conservatism and promoting conservative candidates. All the other stuff is window dressing. And a good FReeper understands the enemy of conservatism is liberalism.

[GitmoSailor]

Super place to be.Lies don’t last long here.If you can’t post the truth then do not Post!!!!!!........

[Bob J]

More specifics?

[Bob J]

Liberals profess to love their country (in their own way), doesn’t make them a FReeper.

“Love of country” is subjective.

[Bob J]

Some democrats are pro-life, doesn’t make them a FReeper.

[Bob J]

Good points. What makes a conservative a conservztive?

[ASA Vet]

Lies don’t last long here

That's a lie.

[Halls]

A Freeper to me is someone who is in a special club and you are in it the minute you join!

[stuartcr]

Loyalty to America, dedication to preservation, and an awesome stash of images.

[Kevmo]

I see that someone already put in “use of snappy keywords” in the keywords. So I’m stuck with pointing others to similar articles in the same vein.

Critical Thinking!

A knee jerk leap to viking kitty-ism? Heheh...

[Reagan Man]

>>>>What makes a conservative a conservztive?

I'd say a good start is knowing right from wrong and a willingness to put it all on the line for what you believe in. Values, beliefs, principles and convictions. Stand up, speak out. Exercise your Constitutional rights as a American. And don't let the liberals get you down.

[Earthdweller]

Shouldn’t this be a fun Friday thread? (Freeper critics are everywhere...hehehe.)

[red-dawg]

The guy in back is a Freeper.

[ozarkgirl]

How about spelling, is that important?

[grellis]

I don’t think I’m officially a FReeper yet. I keep waiting for the special certificate that proves I’m no longer a newbie.

[Red Badger]

A FReeper must have a sense of humor, true, but it must be based in truth and logic. Otherwise, we are no different than DU. We think. They emote.........

[Lancey Howard]

Okay. IMO a “freeper” is somebody who stays informed by reading Free Republic threads, including the original article plus informed replies which debunk, confirm, or otherwise “unspin” the article.

Everything else takes care of itself.

[GitmoSailor]

In one way lies are still here!!!!!.... Mrs Hillary R.Clinton....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......
