I Am Reinstating My Previously Witheld Monthly Payment To FR
vanity | 08-26-02 | mercy

Posted on 08/26/2002 9:57:23 AM PDT by mercy

Giving priority to what is most important, I have decided to swallow my pride. I had a dustup with a moderator. I lost. Though I think the moderators need a tuneup they ain't so bad really. I depend on them to keep this site from becomming a free for all whacko hate site. I used to push the abuse button quite frequently on my fave undesirables ... anti-semite, haters. I notice they're a bit thin around here lately.

It is most important that Free Republic live and thrive. It is less important that I get things my way around here. Though I do not agree completely with the proposition that it is Jim's site and he can do with it what he damn will pleases ... It's as much our site, collectively, as it is his now. Perhaps Jim does ride herd a bit too hard on this creation he gave birth to. Fact is I don't know. I simply don't have enough information.

But it is a given that FR is the best there is at what it does. If it's only my morning paper and a place to exercise my verbal skills ... it's worth supporting. Now is the time for all level headed thinking FReepers to come to the aid of our wounded friend ... Free Republic.

Thank you Mercy. I hope many Freepers folow you home.

I am not gone.

JimRob and I have come to an agreement. He wil post about it soon.

I will have a "Heal the Wounds" thread tomorrow.

I would like all to know that the last Freepathon a bare minumum of $15,000 can be attributed to Registered's osrtich.

I love that damn bird. Come back Registered, Come back.

My role in the fundraising will be less evident, but I will be helping.

They better start issuing hip boots around here. It's getting very deep.

I don't know how much more self-importance or worship I can swallow. This is disgusting !!!!

Your welcome. You're comment sounds something like what my ex-wife would say before bedtime.

Whew! That's the best thing I've heard THIS week. I just took the first full breath I've had in a while. As much as I like to think I'm above it all here ... your 'expressed unhappiness' and the resulting flood ... really got me down.

It made me realize how much I love FR and caused me true panic at the thought of it's .... problems.

News that's great to hear! I vote for putting Billie, Snow Bunny and the other Canteeners in charge of the quarterly Freepathon since it coincides with September 11. Some deeply patriotic threads and graphics would be welcomed. It would help remind us who the real enemies are and aid in the healing.

"Seems to me like we have a bunch of thin-skinned whiners on both sides."

Instead of banning whiners I think the software should be adjusted so that the Mods could attach a .gif file of a diapered baby to serve as a "brand" on all the whiner's posts for a set length of time.

I don't normally do this but.....

I apologize for what I called you on that thread of yours, but I do not apologize for what I said about anti-freepers in general.

I was reviewing threads in my profile last night for the memories and came across a post from one of them about you from last year and I shed tears as I recalled how everyone all worked together here before the wars here started.

I really hope we all do come together to fight the stupid commie demorats!

Here was the post and thread...........

To: TLBSHOW

to BCM -FIL I am BCM 's little brother . I want to thank John's father in law for driving cross country to be with his daughter and my family in this our hour of need. I had the pleasure of telling the country how I felt.And I must admit I have been lurking and reading your kind comments. THANKS. And finally I want to thank all you freepers for the good times my Brother shared with you. If I tried John later in the evening and and the phone was busy , I knew he was with you. I had the pleasure of meeting many of you when John and I went to the impeach clinton rally.[ twice]. Got to shake Bob Barr's hand and have my picture taken with Anne Coulter.

P.S. To Badjoe ; Thanks for the kind gift to John's wife and the many posts you sent me. GOD BLESS

"I can't help but wonder if the Bushbots didn't finally drive Registered away"

I expect you'll recognize these folks.

Cyber Sisters

Cyber Sisters are an extremely fierce confederation of fighting females who act something like a shrill Greek chorus, echoing and amplifying one another's voice until their foes retreat in disarray. They are generally leaderless, but anyone who challenges one Cyber Sister can expect to be savagely attacked by the others. Only the most powerful and battle-hardened of Warriors is strong enough to weather a Cyber Sisters attack.

I try to be good. I really do, but sometimes I just can't help myself.

That was a good thread btw, if you didn't see it.

What kind of forum poster are you?

We are both too tired and too beat up for either of us to be at our best.

Besides his wheels are bigger than mine. : )
