Please search on google for Allen West.
Type allen west into the searchbox.
I have done this several times and am at this moment on the telephone with a FRiend overseas who has ALSO done this search with the SAME result! LOOK at the ONE ad in the sidebar!!!
Please see if you get the same result!
But I *had to* create an account a couple years back to use Google Checkout. It saved my about $100 on a software purchase I made through them. And I needed to save that $100 otherwise I wouldn't have gone with it.
But anyway, that log--in thing could be the reason. Or Google scrubbed it. We know they've been known to do that.
Never heard of it, thanks. I'll give it a try.
West hasn’t been with this band since 2006. Isn’t that a bit of a stretch?

I am not discounting all of your contributions, this thread, however, was kinda a waste of time. Seems you were getting a little hysterical over nothing.
Um, like I’m the only one who made a negative comment? Freedom of speech, take it or leave it.
He must be held kidnapped somewhere and his captor put a gun to his head and forced him to open the thread, read it, and make comments!
As I always say, “never a dull moment” and “everything is a learning experience (but some don’t learn...”.
Google is indeed evil and I have gmail. I wish I didn’t. But I hate yahoo.
Freedom of speech my foot. How about a little self control. You don’t like a thread, be an adult and move on.
I noticed that there are several on the thread with little or no selfcontrol. No one forced them to open the thread. THEY made the choice then blamed it on the poster of the thread. Liberal tactics at work even on FR.
I just posted this to you and LucyT on another thread (not pinging her since it would just be a nuisance!):
Just saw this on TB2, very interesting, some content on the thread, with links.

Well it certainly isn't an expression of well-wishing!
Some dirt bag got his jollies today, I expect. Some deranged person or other....
I'd love to have more details. For instance, was goggle complicit in this in any way?
And yes, I too find this "targeting" (if that's what it is) of Congressman Allen West most disturbing, as savage as it is stupid. FWIW
Ahem - DJ MacWoW is also using freedom of speech - take it or leave it.
Just repeating your own words...
It’s very telling. People reveal their state of mind, priorities, viewpoints and really their character by the (carved in stone...) comments.
:-)
THAT is why I jumped so fast. google isn’t just an innocent standbyer. It has now chosen an allegiance...and it is NOT to US, U. S.
And did you make that comment to all the others who expressed the same sentiment?
Grow up, the thread started with Freeper needs help, I opened it to be of help then I find out it’s some poster getting hysterical over nothing - I express my opinion as did others and now I’m being flamed, really??? People need to get their priorities in order, get hysterical over something worth getting upset about not something that the poster didn’t even understand.
Please accept my apologies if my reply seemed insulting - it certainly wasn't the intention. The tinfoil hat comment was something my friends and I throw at each other frequently, in jest. I have no desire to insult or belittle anyone, so if it came across as such, please accept my apologies.
LOL...nice straw man.
Get. A. Life.
Over the last couple of years, I have seen Freepers ask for help about everything from soup to nuts on threads that begin with “Freeper needs help.” All I wanted was to find out if everyone doing that specific search got exactly the same response? How was I supposed to get a reasonable sample without others doing it from different locations using different browsers?
Given the current state of affairs, was that really so unreasonable? I expected some offhanded jive and humor, but I REALLY didn’t expect the personal insults. And I wasn’t hysterical, just mucho curious...as was my European FRiend who was trying to learn about Allen West.
Hence the heads up email, hence the thread. And I appreciate the responses that set my mind a little at ease. Not completely at ease, but some.
