And look at all the people who left or dropped out for the most part because of the gang mentality of some hater groups-- like the anti-McCain crew, or the anti-Romney crew,...It's not very welcoming....I've wanted to quit sometimes because of the gang of rageaholics.
It's bad manners to talk about people without pinging them.
Oh, and for the record, I should hope that supporters of McCain, Romney, and other RINOs/DIABLOs feel unwelcome on FR!


*DITTO* FRiend! Supporters of that asshat John McCain and Mitt-Witt Romney SHOULD feel unwelcome here, because McCain and Romney are the epitome of RINOS, they are NOT conservative, they are at best 'Rockefeller Republicans' and stand for nothing except for whatever is expedient.

Here's a clue folks: FR is a CONSERVATIVE website, if you were a Rudybot, or a Mittbot, or especially a McCainiac, you have now witnessed first hand the folly of supporting the above mentioned fools, knaves and pretenders.

Now acolytes of RINOs will say "but, but, wouldn't it be better to have a MODERATE or even LIBERAL Republican in the White House instead of 0bama?!?"

Here's the answer: if, instead of the White House and the Presidency of this Nation, we were talking about selecting an all-you-can-eat-buffet, we would be discussing the differences between salmonella and botulism. Both are poisons, but one will kill you faster than the other.

What do those men in the military think of closing Gitmo?

What do they think of bringing the terrorists to the U.S.?

What do they think about the canceling of the F-22 program?

What did they think about the canceling of one type of anti-Ballistic missile defense system?

What did they think when McCain praised Obama for all this and more?

What did they think when John said torture did take place at Gitmo. What did they think when he said we have to close it, because it gives us a black eye because the rest of the world knows what went on there?

Would they have been happier if all this was being done in their name, after voting for him?

I don’t like what Obama is doing any more than anyone else does, but he’s not doing it in my name. He’s doing it in Mao’s name.

The above things would be done in our name. John would have destroyed our brand even further, presiding over the dismantling of our military. Oh yes, John talks a good game, but he either backs Obama’s play all too often, or does exactly what Obama would have done if he had been elected, or just keeps his yap shut when Obama does terrible things.

McCain is in his second best place right now. He’s outside the loop for much of what is taking place, and I hope that reaches 100% in November of 2010.

No, I don’t follow people all over the forum as a general rule. I figure they’re smart enough to figure this stuff out for themselves, or they’ll see me saying it and it will make sense to them without me having to follow them around.

We will get Congress back in 2010. There isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell, that would have happened with McCain in the White House. And 2012, Obama will be gone, yet McCain would have survived.

No thanks.

I can think with that reasoning. But, I can dream...

Yeah. I don't know what's in the minds of the powers that be and I wouldn't mind a upgraded interface but I do everything I need to on FR with three basic HTML commands, , and

.

The rest is intellectual work. And this bare-bones interface encourages mind over keystrokes.

...or especially a McCainiac...

CG has very complimentary pictures of McCain on her FR profile page.

The logical conclusion here is that she is, at best, a McCain supporter, and at worst, a McCainiac.

A liberal troll’s true colors will reveal themselves while a new member who is honest, but may not communicate well, may learn from the conversation. i>

IOW, hit and run. It’d be nice if they hung around and participated in the thread they post here.


Those are for sure blog pimps and if you go check they don’t even off the courtesy of a link back to FreeRepublic.com from their own blog. Riding the back of others for blog hits..

>>> Or, in the interest of supporting the forum we could link the posting of new threads to the commitment of at least $1.00 per month in monthy donations to FR. Non-donators could comment but not start new threads.

I thought of that suggestion myself, but I would advise against it. I’ve seen quite a few veteren freepers leave for much less.

I know one of the biggest things that has come up is simply efficiency. A lot of extra features bog things down.

On the thread where this question came up, I recall those being some of the reasons given for why the forum remains sorta bare bones.

I'm not complaining. If those cool features were that important to me, I wouldn't have stuck around. I'm here because this place has become the de facto Central HQ of the conservative movement. It's the ideas, the communication, and the connection to others of like mind that are most stimulating for me.

I know Jim, John and those working behind the scenes more on a technical end, are always looking for ways to improve things...

Bless them, and all of you mods for everything you do for the rest of us. Thank you.

No, you’re right, it’s much better to have Ozero as the commander in chief. I’ll let my brother know. And my friend in Iraq. Maybe you could explain it to them. How it’s better to have the worst possible president than one who isn’t a perfect conservative.

On FR we have folks who trash lots of Republicans for not being conservative enough: Bush, Medved, Gingrich, even Cheney. Eventually, nobody is good enough. It makes you wonder what the true goal of these perfect conservatives is, really.

That's interesting. I see the format here like the Drudge Report in that its simplicity is one of the attractive features. If you get too many widgets and add-ons, this could become as tacky as a lot of MySpace profiles.

Of course, I'm sure some people will ask that you post animated gif's all over the page too.. :->
