Let's put this to bed. We have bigger fish to fry.

Everyone please send whatever you are able to, whether it is $10, $100 or $1,000+. The DUmmies, Morons, Kos Kiddies and that crew are laughing up their sleeves. Jim may have to make this site members only or allow ads. Better for us to just help with what we can. Maybe you can donate as a memorial for a lost loved one, a servicemember who never made it home or was disabled defending our country. Perhaps you'd like to give to keep free discussion alive and to show them that we're not knuckling under. I'm sure a well thought out or prayerful meditation will lead you to see the need and how you can help. If every registered FReeper and our lurkers would each just help out with a fin or a sawbuck, or better yet a Ben Franklin, we could put this to bed and get on with the conservative cause.

LOL I know the funny thing is the mod he complained to contacted me and we had a nice convo. But it was about SILENT_jonny being bullied by me and not wanting me to tell him what a POS he is.

I really don't know how that = death threat but I guess if people don't take their meds they imagine things. He should be proud. He leads threads for a show that panders to blacks and gays, and another show that panders to blacks and gays.

Ya gotta read his posts when he sarcastically attacks people and I have to repeat he is Joy Behar + Rachel Maddow trapped in a boy's body.

He can dish it out but can't take it.

He's like the brat on the playground who kicks you in the leg, you push him and he goes crying to the teacher....

I would love to see pictures of his harem I bet they are all Janet Reno look a likes.

I was very interested in Perry when he first announced. It was his “heartless” comment that turned me off. In spite of that I never hated him or thought he was stupid, but for me personally he lost all momentum with that comment. Even if it was coming from a well-intentioned place, it felt like a slap in the face. Hopefully he can come back and improve all facets of his performance; I think he would make any future race more interesting.

I will tell you what. I will refrain from telling you what you should say, and how about returning the courtesy. If you have facts present them, I will give them a look see.

I would imagine that thousands of such were corrupted across the nation.

The oligarchy works hard at all levels to make sure their will wins regardless.

The number of conservatives on FR

who can evidently

dish it out most harshly, ruthlessly, relentlessly, irrationally, unwarrantedly, viciously

and not take a feather of a negative response in return

is shockingly astounding.

Particularly . . . well . . . I’ve said plenty about that.

In other news the drunk stalker seems to have blacked out and the other offensive drunk who walked over a grave and offended probably hundreds of people with one post seems to have blacked out.

I guess moonshine gives you courage!!! But too much moonshine and you are out like a light!!!

Wish we could give virtual breathalyzers. The one stalker would blow a .2 by noon the other one may break the world record as not one of his rants made any sense. I've taken multiple psychology classes and studied various cases of mental cases, and the guy who posted the grave picture, he is an outlier I don't think Freud or Jung could figure this one out. Maybe Betty Ford could.

Nothing but facts, about both Romney and Reagan.

Don’t do like the Reagan hating Romney and try to destroy Reagan while promoting Romney.

Thanks.

Night.

I’m showered and allergy medicated . . . and running out of gas so I should hit the hay as well.

Blessings . . .

I do hope, all,

that the candor on this thread is learned from vs attacked.

People who are hurt can say hurtful things in response.

Leadership notices the hurt and seeks to remove the unnecessary causes of such hurts.

Mob mentalities justify the hurts, rationalize the hurts and pile more hurts on.

Blessings to all of good heart in behalf of God and country and FR.

Well buddy they are cowards, they hide behind a computer screen. Why am I not afraid of these losers? I run a store I have a business, the ones who aren't on disability and are drunk all day are hiding behind a computer.

In running my store I have to deal with volatile customers from time to time. Meaning I have to have a pair and have a spine something jonnyboy lacks. He unleashes his girls on me and cries to the mods like a 4 year old who dropped his popsicle.

See I own a business unlike grifters who milk the system. I deal with scum bags whether they are sales people or ghetto thugs trying to con me for money. You gotta have balls and stand up. Yeah, I'm vocal, yeah people who are complete cowards don't like that but that's life! Unless you have a sexual identity issue, then that's for some psychiatrist to deal with, screaming to mods and making slanderous charges of death threats won't solve a sexual identity crisis. Maybe he should go see Rent or watch Glee. I dunno. Obviously, American Idol and X-Factor hasn't made him happy yet so he resorts to his little insults and at the first sign of a response, WAAAAAAAAAA Mr. Moderator, Dengar01 said I'm a poopy head!!! That's a death threat :(

Now with this last post, you are backtracking, bigtime.

Backtracking? Not on your life. You kept using the word scam. I didn't. :)

Also, I never said the owner is committing fraud. I said the website is a fraud if it needs $376,000 a year to operate. As an example, I gave information from Dell's website. Gave the link. Anyone can go there and see for themselves. So where are the servers? As I demonstrated, enterprise-class servers can be purchased very cheaply. I could go further, as others before me already have, and point out website costs these days. But it isn't necessary. Let's just keep focusing on those servers. Where are they?

I mentioned FR being an LLC for a reason. Although I don't know what the laws are regarding disclosure when such large sums are being solicited from the public, one would think that the last thing y'all would want to fight against is accounting and transparency. But that's exactly what you're doing. Why?

What's even worse is that you treat the very public that FR is soliciting money from lower than dirt. Why is that? Even so, I have to assume Mr. Robinson has good legal and CPA-type advice, so assume he's operating lawfully. But being open and behaving decently to the people who are paying the bills is not happening.

By the way, if you have a shred of intellectual curiosity, check this out. You can find plenty more such information by doing a Google search on "how much does it cost to run a website."

I'd like to ask an open question of any of the Mods or Jim or whoever would like to answer.

First a little background...I'm a relatively new guy here, I think I've been posting from time to time for a year or two, certainly not as long as most of you. A few months ago I posted something along the lines of “if Romney is the guy, I'll vote for him, dont like him but he's not Obama”...or something to that effect, dont recall the exact words, but generally the ABO thing. Jim let me know he didn't like it (very graciously, no hard feelings to him at all), and I decided just to back off from posts about the presidential race for a while. I've posted a few times since, but mostly just lurked and read.

So now, Romney for all intents and purposes has the nomination, and this place is getting torn apart, by two sides who both say they either cant or must vote for Romney. Both sides get more inflamed, and it goes on and on.

So my question is this: Why not just stop allowing threads/discussion about the presidential race for this election cycle? OK, you're saying, thats stupid. Just consider this for a second:
1. The official position of the website, as I understand it, is now that neither of the two candidates who have a real chance to win may be supported. No one would support Obama for sure, and we are not supposed to support Romney on FR.

2. Therefore, any discussion of the race in keeping with the guidelines of the site, would be to say negative things about either candidate. That is, you can freely bash Obama or Romney, but dont praise either. You can say FUMR or FUBO, but dont say vote for either.

So, unless we just need a daily thread for people to come in and vent and say FU to each and hear someone else say “right on”, I really dont see any benefit to such threads. Post the official position of FR on the front page, as Jim has done in the past, and save the threads for discussion of issues, local races, news events and such. It just seems like since everyone has their mind made up already, and the only acceptable position to proselytize is that of voting for NEITHER candidate, it would just save a lot of anger and heartache to say that and stop having running discussions were one group tries to see how close they can get to the “zot line” without getting fried, and the other group questions the conservative credentials of the first group.

FR is a great website, I've enjoyed it a lot since I first started reading and posting. It just seems like an awful lot of time and energy is wasted on a circular argument that is simply pissing everyone off. Maybe I'm wrong, I've been married for 13 years, so I clearly understand that I am often wrong, but thats how I see it.

A Romney vote shows the gop-e they have nothing to worry about, and have no reason to change what they are doing. We will never get them out, and they will never lose control of the party when they know we’ll just keep voting for whichever one they put up.
