You bet.

One the brave signers of our Declaration of Independence was a relative, Stephen Hopkins.

Another relative, helped to write the letters of discontent, that was sent to Krazy King George. He had to flee NY with 5 young daughters and his wife to Virginia to avoid being killed by Krazy Kindg George’s redcoats.

Most of the people who left during the last election cycle were Romney supporters. They also set up an opposing web site.

Well, good for you. What a privileged heritage. Of course as believers, we have the heritage of Abraham and are co-heirs with Christ. But you must have an ardent love of independence and freedom running through your veins.

I don’t know exactly why I have this stuff in my veins. I grew up in Palo Alto, CA, the epicenter of Leftism, my Dad being a staunch socialist and and M.D. who thought socialized medicine was the cat’s meow. I feel like I’ve always been on a different wavelength from all of that - don’t know why.

Just a heads-up, gibsosa.

Your Trump vote on today's caucus thread was invalid:

DoughtyOne wrote:

PLEASE DO NOT MAKE YOUR POST BOLD, A DIFFERENT FONT SIZE, OR ADD PUNCTUATION. DON'T ADD TEXT, LIKE "Vote Name, of course".

I do not wish to invalidate anyone's vote, but your creativity leads to others wanting to be creative. Be creative on other threads if you value your vote.

To Vote: pick from the candidates here, and type "Vote" and the "Name" as it appears here. You're vote should look just like one of these selections.

Vote Trump

You posted vote trump.

You need to capitalize the v and the t.

You can check with DoughtyOne, but I'm pretty sure it's invalid:

You can vote again, since you haven't really voted.

My zeal was inherited, and I had good parents and grandparents. They started me on the correct path.

People like you are the amazing ones. In spite of liberal parents and the San Jose/Frisco environment, you ended up on the Right Side.

So once again, people abandon their values based on how they think others will vote?

Dear God.

And meanwhile, once again, a HUGE portion of the conservative right will stay home because they were ignored. 75% of Christians don’t vote in the absence of a clear conservative.

This is my only explanation: the grace of God who “separated me from my mother’s womb.”

Thanks, I tried really hard to follow directions!! Appreciate it.

Just returned from a short Sunday afternoon stroll through That Blog, the site you mentioned. Several of the names were familiar to me as dishonest and disruptive accusatory (former?) FReepers but I was surprised to see a few other familiar usernames posting there, including at least one still posting FR even on this thread.

A handful of the posters over yonder really serve FR most by not returning after suspensions are lifted. Perhaps they’ve found a happier home there.

I think that you (and others with the power to zot) have increased the potential for a more user-FRiendly FR, at least for a while, I hope maybe ya reckon?
