There are posts with hateful sounding speech that are posted on here. I’ve not read many that sound like the Daily Kos or DU on their extreme end, but I’ve read some that BO might glom on to and try lumping us in with the Left. I’ve complained mightily about those kinds of posts. Lots of us have done so. That’s another thing that seperates us from the Lefty sites, that those kinds of posts are subject to plenty of blowback from others here. Of course BO isn’t going to explain that, or anything else that doesn’t fit his own program agenda.
You are correct about O’Rielly’s agenda. He is still smarting from earlier Freeper comments about his lack of character, sincerity and honesty. He is particularly upset about comments made here about his sexual misconduct and about his secret deal to buy off the woman in question. Given a chance to strike at FreeRepublic, a man like O’Rielly just can’t resist. lol.
